Knotts Island Fire Department
Currituck County - North Carolina �,)VV14
Q ARO
141arch 30, 2007
Knotts Island Fire Department is to be constructed on a 9.72 acre site located in
Knotts Island on NC 615, Knotts Island Road, between Capps Creek Lane and Bufflehead
Court. Construction of the fire station will involve only the front 3.58 acres of the site
and will include a new fire station building, a maintenance/storage building, required
parking, water storage tank, septic system, and a detention pond.
Development of the site will separate the site into two drainage basins: the front of
the site, Drainage Area 1, which will be developed as the fire station and the rear of the
site, Drainage Area 2, which will remain vacant.
The front 3.58 acres, Drainage Area 1, will contain 1.57 acres of impervious
surface (44%) which will consist of 15,249 sf of building (including a future bay
expansion), 1,051 sf of concrete sidewalk, a 312 sf dumpster pad, 661 sf of water storage
tank, 51,456 sf of concrete and asphalt parking and drives (including the future parking).
Stormwater will be collected in a combination of a piped system grass lined swales that
will drain to a wet detention basin designed for 90% TSS removal. According to the soil
survey of Currituck County, the soils on site are Altavista and Augusta. According to the
results of soil borings performed by GET Solutions, Inc., the water table is approximately
2.5' below existing grade. While the on -site soils have permeability rates that would
accommodate an. infiltration basin, the high water table makes a wet detention basin the
most appropriate treatment method. Based on existing elevations of almost 10' in the
area of the proposed detention pond, the permanent pool elevation has been set at 7.50.
Currituck County's regulations require that the post -development runoff be limited to pre -
development levels. Rational Method analysis of the 10 year storm indicates a pre -
development runoff from Drainage Area 1 is 6.9 cfs. Peak discharge out of the detention
pond during a 10 year storm will be 4.85 cfs. The pond will discharge into the existing
ditch in the NC DOT right-of-way. An encroachment agreement has been filed.
Drainage Area 2 will contain no impervious area and will continue to sheet flow
across the grassed land to adjacent swales. A swale is being installed to the east and
north of the site to intercept runoff from the vacant land and the northern landscape buffer
and route it to the front of the site. Any future development in Drainage Area 2 will
require additional permitting.
The disturbed area for this development will not exceed 5 acres. Limits of
disturbance have been shown on the plans.

GET Project No: EC05-351G
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The proposed construction at this site will consist of building a new single -story
fire station, as well as associated asphalt paved drive lanes and parking areas,
and other associated site infrastructure. The project site is located within the
southeast quadrant of the Capps Creek Lane and Knotts Island Road
intersection in Knotts Island, Currituck County, North Carolina. A brief description
of the anticipated characteristics of the community center's structures are listed
below:
• Building to be approximately 7,500 square feet in plan area.
• First floor finish grade elevations anticipated to be slightly above the
existing site grade elevations.
• Pre -Engineered metal frame building design.
• Slab -On -Grade first floor.
■ Slab loads not expected to exceed 150 psf.
• Noted maximum foundation wall loads generally not expected to exceed 2
klf.
• Noted maximum foundation column loads not expected to exceed 50 kips
Our field exploration program included a total of three (3) 20 to 50-foot deep
Standard Penetration Test (SPT) borings and two (2) 5-foot deep hand auger
borings that were drilled within the proposed construction areas. A brief
description of the subsurface soil conditions is noted below:

Proposed Knotts Island Fire Station
Knotts Island, North Carolina
GET Project No: EC05-351 G
The following evaluations and recommendations were developed based on our
field exploration and laboratory -testing program:
• Field testing program during construction to include compaction testing,
subgrade inspection, and foundation excavation observations for bearing
capacity verification.
• A minimum cut depth of approximately 8 to 12-inches will be required to
remove the existing organic materials, low lying vegetation, and
associated root mat from within the construction areas. This should be
substantiated during the subgrade evaluations (proofroll) to ensure that all
organic soils have been removed within the proposed structural and
pavement areas.
• In preparation for shallow foundation support, the footing excavations
should extend into firm natural soil or well compacted structural fill.
• Shallow foundations designed using an allowable bearing capacity of
2,000 psf (24-inch embedment, 24-inch width). A maximum column
foundation size of 6-feet and a foundation bearing elevation at a depth no
deeper than 2-feet below existing site grade elevations should be
implemented for the shallow foundations. This is considered necessary in
order to prevent foundation loads from influencing the highly compressible
subsurface organic layer and significantly increasing the foundation
settlements.
• Estimated total and differential settlements up to 1-inch and Yz-inch,
respectively. However, as previously indicated, a subsurface organic soil
deposit (PEAT; PT) was encountered at a depth of approximately 12-feet
below existing grades. Accordingly, long-term settlement magnitudes,
estimated to be on the order of about 2 to 3-inches within the 10-years of
building completion, cannot be precisely substantiated, as the rate of
organic decomposition cannot be determined. The settlement associated
with the organic decomposition is anticipated to be generally uniform
within the building area, as the depth of the PEAT was found to occur at
consistent depths and the relative density was also noted to be generally
consistent.
This summary briefly discusses some of the major topics mentioned in the
attached report. Accordingly, this report should be read in its entirety to
thoroughly evaluate the contents.

1.0 PROJECT INFORMATION
1.1 Project Authorization:
G E T Solutions, Inc. has completed our Geotechnical Engineering study for the proposed
Knotts Island Fire Station project. The Geotechnical Engineering Services were conducted
in general accordance with G E T Solutions, Inc. Proposal No. PEC05-194G, dated
November 17, 2005. Authorization to proceed with the services was received in the form of
our original proposal signed by Mr. Edmond Virgili on the date of December 1, 2005.
1.2 Project Description:
It is our understanding that the proposed development at this site is planned to consist of
building a single -story 7,500 square foot (foot print) fire station and its proposed asphalt
paved drive lanes and parking lot areas, as well as other associated site infrastructure.
The fire station is proposed to consist of a pre-engineered metal frame building design
supported by shallow foundations and slab -on -grade members. The maximum wall and
column loads associated with the proposed structure were not expected to exceed about 2
kips per linear foot and 50 kips, respectively, as noted by the project structural Engineer,
NRW Engineering. The proposed finish floor elevation of the structure is anticipated to be
slightly above the existing grade elevations. Accordingly, it is anticipated that fill operations
necessary to establish the design grades will not exceed about 2 to 3-feet.
If any of the noted information is incorrect or has changed, please inform G E T Solutions,
Inc. so that we may amend'the recommendations presented in this report, if appropriate.
1.3 Purpose and Scope of Services:
The purpose of this study was to obtain information on the general subsurface conditions
at the proposed project site. The subsurface conditions encountered were then evaluated
with respect to the available project characteristics. In this regard, engineering
assessments for the following items were formulated:
General assessment of the soils revealed by the borings performed at the
proposed development.
General location and description of potentially deleterious material
encountered in the borings that may interfere with construction progress or
structure performance, including existing fills or surficial/subsurface organics.

3. Soil subgrade preparation, including stripping, grading, and compaction.
Engineering criteria for placement and compaction of approved structural fill
material.
4. Feasibility of utilizing a shallow foundation system for support of the
proposed building. Design parameters required for the foundation systems,
including foundation sizes, allowable bearing pressures, foundation levels,
and expected total and differential settlements.
5. Typical pavement sections based on the laboratory test results of the
encountered surficial soils as well as our experience with similar soil
conditions. CBR sampling and testing was not a part of our scope of
services.

The scope of services did not include an environmental assessment for determining the
presence or absence of wetlands or hazardous or toxic material in the soil, bedrock,
surface water, groundwater or air, on or below or around this site. Any statements in this
report or on the boring logs regarding odors, color, unusual or suspicious items or
conditions are strictly for the information of the client. Prior to development of this site, an
environmental assessment is advisable.
2.0 FIELD AND LABORATORY PROCEDURES
2.1 Field Exploration:
In order to explore the general subsurface soil types and to aid in developing associated
foundation design parameters, three 20 to 50-foot deep Standard Penetration Test (SPT)
borings (designated as B-1 through B-3) and two (2) 5-foot deep hand auger borings were
drilled by G E T Solutions, Inc. within the proposed building and pavement areas,
respectively.
Due to the encountered subsurface soil conditions, boring B-1 was extended to a depth of
50-feet below existing grades. This was considered to be necessary in order to obtain
sufficient subsurface soil characteristics for deep foundation design, should it be
requested. Additional information regarding the subsurface soil conditions as they relate to
the proposed structure is presented in Section 4.0 of this report.

The SPT borings were performed with the use of a power drill rig using mud (rotary wash)
drilling procedures. The soil samples were obtained with a Split -Spoon Sampler in general
accordance with the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) ASTM D-1586. These samples
were taken continuously from the ground surface to a depth of 10 feet, and at 5-foot
intervals thereafter. The boring schedule noting the boring depths and locations is

The boring locations were established by Edmond P. Virgili R.A. —Architect and identified
in the field by G E T Solutions Inc. personnel by measuring from existing landmarks, and
are shown on the "Boring Location Plan" attached to this report (Appendix I, Figure 1). The
sketch was developed based on site observation performed by the G E T Solutions, Inc.
representative.
2.2 Laboratory Testing:
Representative portions of all soil samples collected during drilling were sealed in glass
jars, labeled, and transferred to our Elizabeth City laboratory for classification and analysis.
The soil classification was performed by a Geotechnical Engineer in accordance with
ASTM D2488.
A total of three (3) representative split spoon soil samples were selected and subjected to
natural moisture, and 4200 sieve wash, and Atterburg Limits testing and analysis in order
to corroborate the visual classification of the granular soils. These test results are
tabulated on the following page and are also presented on the "Log of Boring" sheets
(Appendix II).

3.0 SITE AND SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
3.1 Site Location and Description:
The project site is generally located within the southeast quadrant of the Capps Creek
Lane and Knotts Island Road intersection in Knotts Island, Currituck County, North
Carolina. At the time of our field exploration services the site was observed to consist of an
open agricultural field. Existing site grade elevations were visually estimated to vary less
than 1-foot in 50-linear feet.
The site is bordered to the east by open agricultural fields. The northern boundary consists
of Capps Creek Lane (an existing dirt road) followed by an open agricultural field. The
western boundary consists of Knotts Island Road followed by an open agricultural field. The
southern boundary consists of a combination of an existing single story residential structure
and open agricultural fields.
3.2 Subsurface Soil Conditions:
Topsoil encountered at the boring locations ranged in thickness from 8 to 12-inches.
Underlying the surficial organic soils, the natural subsurface soils recovered at the boring
locations were uniform and consistent throughout the site, and to the explored depths.
These soils were primarily comprised of a poorly graded SAND with varying amounts of silt
(SP, SP-SM, SM, SM-SC). The Standard Penetration Test (SPT) results, N-values,
recorded within this soil layer ranged from 5 to 33 blows -per -foot (BPF) indicating a loose
to dense relative density.

A deposit of soft to medium stiff Silty Fibrous PEAT (PT) was encountered at the location
of borings B-1 through B-3. These subsurface organic deposits were encountered at a
depth extending from 12 to 18-feet below existing grades. Additionally, a deposit of very
soft to medium stiff Silty CLAY (CH) was encountered beneath the subsurface organic
layer and generally extended to a depth of about 31-feet.
The subsurface description is of a generalized nature provided to highlight the major soil
strata encountered. The records of the subsurface exploration included in Appendix II (Log
of Boring sheets) and the Generalized Soil Profile presented in Appendix III should be
reviewed for specific information as to individual borings. The stratifications shown on the
records of the subsurface exploration represent the conditions only at the actual boring
locations. Variations may occur and should be expected between boring locations. The
stratifications represent the approximate boundary between subsurface materials and the
transition may be gradual.
3.3 Groundwater Information:
The groundwater table depth was measured at each boring location during drilling
operations and was found to occur approximately 2.5-feet below the existing site grades.
Groundwater conditions will vary with environmental variations and seasonal conditions,
such as the frequency and magnitude of rainfall patterns, as well as man-made influences,
such as existing swales, drainage ponds, underdrains, and areas of covered soil (paved
parking lots, side walks, etc.). It is estimated normal seasonal high groundwater level will
fluctuate within 1.5 to 2 feet above the current levels. We recommend that the contractor
determine the actual groundwater levels at the time of the construction to determine
groundwater impact on this project, if needed.
4.0 EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the previously presented information, it is our opinion that with minor shallow
subgrade soil modifications and improvements, this site will be suitable to support the
proposed new structure by means of a shallow foundation system (footings). However, the
proposed construction area does contain a subsurface organic deposit extending from
depths of approximately 12 to 18-feet below existing grades.

This subsurface organic deposit is expected to be generally located beneath the depth of
influence contributed by the foundation loads of the proposed structure. However, some
settlement may be experienced from this subsurface organic deposit, which will consist
primarily of organic decomposition, and is anticipated to be generally uniform in nature.
Settlement magnitudes, estimated to be on the order of about 2 to 3-inches within the next
10-years, cannot be precisely substantiated as the rate of organic decomposition cannot
be determined. In order eliminate the potential settlement associated with the subsurface
organic layer, it is considered necessary to support the proposed structure and slabs by
means of a .deep foundation system. Additional design consideration and
recommendations can be provided by G E T Solutions, Inc. should a deep foundation
system be preferred.
The settlements associated with the footings will be minimized with the recommended site
improvements included in this report. Accordingly, proper site quality control (subgrade
evaluation and compaction testing) is considered necessary to ensure that the allowable
foundation bearing capacity provided in this report is achieved. All foundation design and
construction recommendations are presented in the following sections of this report.
4.1 Clearing and Grading:
The proposed construction areas should be cleared by means of removing the existing low-
lying vegetation (grass), associated root mat, and surficial organic soils (Topsoil). A
minimum cut depth ranging from approximately 8 to 12-inches below existing site grade
elevations will be required to remove the low-lying vegetation, associated root mat, and
surficial organic soils (Topsoil).
The subsurface soils recovered at the boring locations contained appreciable amounts of
fines (SAND with varying amounts of silt and clay; SM, SM-SC). Also, based on the
laboratory testing, the current (natural) moisture contents of the surface soils at the
explored locations were near their respective optimum moisture. Accordingly, combinations
of excess surface moisture from precipitation ponding on the site and the construction
traffic, including heavy compaction equipment, may create pumping and general
deterioration of the bearing capabilities of the surface soils. Therefore, undercutting to
remove very soft soils should be anticipated. The extent of the undercut will be determined
in the field during construction, based on the outcome of the field testing procedures
(subgrade proofroll). In this regard, and in order to reduce undercutting, care should be
exercised during the grading and construction operations at the site.

Furthermore, inherently wet subgrade soils combined with potential poor site, drainage
make this site particularly susceptible to subgrade deterioration. Thus, grading should be
performed during a dry season if at all possible. This should minimize these potential
problems, although they may not be eliminated. The project's budget should include an
allowance for subgrade improvements (undercut and backfill with select fill).
Control of surface water is very important to the successful completion of the proposed
construction. The contractor should plan his grading activities to control surface water and
minimize erosion of exposed cut or fill material. This may include constructing temporary
berms, ditches, flumes and/or slope drains to intercept runoff and discharge it in a
controlled fashion, while complying with state and local regulations.
The project's budget should include an allowance for subgrade improvements (undercut
and backfill with select fill). It is recommended that the clearing operations extend laterally
at least 5 feet beyond the perimeter of the proposed building area.
4.2 Subgrade Preparation:
Following the clearing operations, the exposed subgrade soils should be densified with a
large vibratory drum roller. After the subgrade soils have been densified, they should be
evaluated by G E T Solutions, Inc. for stability. Accordingly, the subgrade soils should be
proofrolled to check for pockets of very loose material hidden beneath a crust of better soil.
Several passes should be made by a large rubber -tired roller or loaded dump truck over
the construction areas, with the successive passes aligned perpendicularly. The number of
passes will be determined in the field by the Geotechnical Engineer depending on the soils
conditions. Any pumping and unstable areas observed during proofrolling (beyond the
initial cut) should be undercut and/or stabilized at the directions of the Geotechnical
Engineer.
Following the successful completion of the proofroll operation, it is recommended that,
within the construction areas, natural soils below stripped grade should be compacted to a
dry density of at least 95 percent of the standard Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM
D698), as tested to a depth of at least 24 inches.

4.3 Structural Fill and Placement:
Any material to be used for backfill or structural fill should be evaluated and tested by G E
T Solutions, Inc. prior to placement to determine if they are suitable for the intended use.
Suitable structural fill material should consist of sand or gravel containing less than 20
percent by weight of fines (SP, SM, SW, GP, GW), having a liquid limit less than 20 and
plastic limit less than 6, and should be free of rubble, organics, clay, debris and other
unsuitable material.
All structural fill should be compacted to a dry density of at least 95 percent of the standard
Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D698). In general, the compaction should be
accomplished by placing the fill in maximum 10-inch loose lifts and mechanically
compacting each lift to at least the specified minimum dry density. A representative of G E
T Solutions, Inc. should perform field density tests on each lift as necessary to assure that
adequate compaction is achieved.
Backfill material in utility trenches within the construction areas should consist of structural
fill (as described above), and should be compacted to at least 95 percent of ASTM D698.
This fill should be placed in 4 to 6 inch loose lifts when hand compaction equipment is
used.
Care should be used when operating the compactors near existing structures to avoid
transmission of the vibrations that could cause settlement damage or disturb occupants. In
this regard, it is recommended that the vibratory roller remain at least 15 feet away from
existing structures; these areas should be compacted with small, hand -operated
compaction equipment.
4.4 Building Foundation Design Recommendations:
Provided that the construction procedures are properly performed, the proposed structure
can be supported by shallow spread footings bearing over firm natural soil or well
compacted structural fill material. The footings can be designed using a net allowable soil
pressure of up to 2000 pounds per square foot (psf). In using net pressures, the weight of
the footings and backfill over the footings, including the weight of the floor slab, need not
be considered. Hence, only loads applied at or above the finished floor need to be used
for dimensioning the footings.

In order to develop the recommended bearing capacity, the base of the footings should
have an embedment of at least 24 inches beneath finished grades, and wall footings
should have a minimum width of 24 inches. In addition, isolated square column footings
are recommended to be a minimum of 3 feet by 3 feet in area for bearing capacity
consideration. The recommended 24-inch footing embedment is considered sufficient to
provide adequate cover against frost penetration to the bearing soils.
Due to the presence of the subsurface organic soil layer, it is recommended to maintain a
maximum column foundation size of 6-feet and a foundation bearing elevation at a depth
no deeper than 2-feet below existing site grade elevations. This is considered necessary in
order to prevent foundation loads from influencing the highly compressible subsurface
organic layer and significantly increasing the foundation settlements.
4.5 Foundation Excavations:
Following the approval of the foundation bearing soils by G E T Solutions, Inc.'s
Geotechnical Engineer and immediately prior to reinforcing steel placement, it is suggested
that the natural granular bearing surfaces in the base of these footing areas be compacted
using hand operated mechanical tampers, to a dry density of at least 95 percent of the
standard Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D 698) as tested to a depth of 12 inches for
bearing capacity considerations. In this manner, any localized areas, which have been
loosened by excavation operations, should be adequately recompacted.
Soils exposed in the bases of all satisfactory and remedied foundation excavations (if
necessary) should be protected against any detrimental change in condition such as from
physical disturbance, rain or frost. Surface run-off water should be drained away from the
excavations and not be allowed to pond. If possible, all footing concrete should be placed
the same day the excavation is made. If this is not possible, the footing excavations should
be adequately protected.
4.6 Building Foundation Settlements:
It is estimated that, with proper site preparation, the maximum resulting total settlement of
the proposed building foundations should be up to 1 inch. The maximum differential
settlement magnitude is expected to be less than 1/2-inch between adjacent footings (wall
footings and column footings of widely varying loading conditions). The settlements were
estimated on the basis of the results of the field penetration tests. Careful field control will
contribute substantially towards minimizing the settlements.

However, as previously indicated, a subsurface organic soil deposit (PEAT; PT) was
encountered at a depth of approximately 12-feet below existing grades. Accordingly, long-
term settlement magnitudes, estimated to be on the order of about 2 to 3-inches within the
10-years of building completion, cannot be precisely substantiated, as the rate of organic
decomposition cannot be determined. The settlement associated with the organic
decomposition is anticipated to be generally uniform within the building area, as the depth
of the PEAT was found to occur at consistent depths and the relative density was also
noted to be generally consistent.
4.7 Building Floor Slabs:
The floor slabs may be constructed as slab -on -grade members provided the previously
recommended earthwork activities and evaluations are carried out properly. As previously
noted, a subsurface deposit of PEAT (PT) is expected cause settlement as a result of
decomposition. In order to eliminate the potential settlement, pile foundations should be
used to support the structure and its slabs. It is recommended that all ground floor slabs
be directly supported by at least a 4-inch layer of relatively clean, compacted, poorly
graded sand (SP) or gravel (GP) with less than 5 percent passing the No. 200 Sieve (0.074
mm). The purpose of the 4-inch layer is to act as a capillary barrier and equalize moisture
conditions beneath the slab.
It is recommended that all ground floor slabs be "floating" if no turn down slab/foundation
system is implemented. That is, generally ground supported and not rigidly connected to
walls or foundations. This is to minimize the possibility of cracking and displacement of the
floor slabs because of differential movements between the slab and the foundation.
It is also recommended that the floor slab bearing soils be covered by a vapor barrier or
retarder in order to minimize the potential for floor dampness, which can affect the
performance of glued tile and carpet. Generally, use a vapor retarder for minimal vapor
resistance protection below the slab on grade. When floor finishes, site conditions or other
considerations require greater vapor resistance protection, consideration should be given
to using a vapor barrier. Selection of a vapor retarder or barrier should be made by the
Architect based on project requirements.

In preparation for a stable subgrade support for the pavement section, the following
construction steps are recommended:
1. Following pavement rough grading operations, the exposed
subgrade should be observed under proofrolling. This
proofrolling should be accomplished with a fully loaded dump
truck or 7 to 10 ton drum roller to check for pockets of soft
material hidden beneath a thin crust of better soil. Any
unsuitable materials thus exposed should be removed and
replaced with a well -compacted material. The inspection of
these phases should be performed by the Geotechnical
Engineer or his representative. Based on our laboratory test
results, some subgrade improvements should be anticipated
and budgeted for.
2. If excessively unstable subgrade soils are observed during
proofrolling and/or fill placement, it is expected that these weak
areas can be stabilized by means of thickening the base
course layer to 12 to 14 inches, use of an inter -bedded layer of
geogrid within the base course layer (such as Tensar BX1100).
These alternates are to be addressed by the Geotechnical
Engineer during construction, if necessary, who will
recommend the most economical approach at the time.
5.0 CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS
5.1 Drainage and Groundwater Concerns:
It is expected that dewatering will be required for excavations that extend deeper than 2.5-
feet below existing grades. Dewatering at these levels and just into the groundwater level
could probably be accomplished by pumping from sumps (up to a depth of 12-inches below
the groundwater level). Dewatering at depths in excess of approximately 12 inches below
the groundwater level may require well pointing.

5.2 Excavations:
In Federal Register, Volume 54, No. 209 (October, 1989), the United States Department of
Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) amended its "Construction
Standards for Excavations, 29 CFR, part 1926, Subpart P". This document was issued to
better insure the safety of workmen entering trenches or excavations. It is mandated by
this federal regulation that all excavations, whether they be utility trenches, basement
excavation or footing excavations, be constructed in accordance with the new (OSHA)
guidelines. It is our understanding that these regulations are being strictly enforced and if
they are not closely followed, the owner and the contractor could be liable for substantial
penalties.
The contractor is solely responsible for designing and constructing stable, temporary
excavations and should shore, slope, or bench the sides of the excavations as required to
maintain stability of both the excavation sides and bottom. The contractor's responsible
person, as defined in 29 CFR Part 1926, should evaluate the soil exposed in the
excavations as part of the contractor's safety procedures. In no case should slope height,
slope inclination, or excavation depth, including utility trench excavation depth, exceed
those specified in local, state, and federal safety regulations.
We are providing this information solely as a service to our client. G E T Solutions, Inc. is
not assuming responsibility for construction site safety or the contractor's activities; such
responsibility is not being implied and should not be inferred.
