Based on the information provided by Mr. Josh Lamb of ARCO Design/Build, we understand that the structural loading conditions anticipated in our report were revised and that the actual loading conditions will be less than the originally anticipated loads. We understand the proposed warehouse facility will have column loads on the order of 100 kips and wall loads on the order of 5 kips per linear foot. A new grading plan was also available at the time of this letter. Based on the provided Grading Plan, prepared by Bohler Engineering NC, LLP, dated August 28. 2020, the proposed warehouse F.F.E. will be 170.50 feet. Fills less than 2 feet (excluding undercutting) and cuts less than 2.5 feet will be required in the building area to reach the proposed finished grade. In the parking and drive areas, fills up to 1 foot and cuts up to 5 feet will be required to reach proposed finished grades. Assuming that our site preparation and grading recommendations presented in the report (Section 4.0) are implemented, and given the revised building loads and revised F.F.E., settlement due to shallow foundations designed using an allowable soil bearing capacity Birmingham, AL • Auburn, AL • Huntsville, AL • Montgomery, AL Tuscaloosa, AL • Columbus, GA • Louisville, KY • Raleigh, INC • Dunn, INC Jacksonville, INC • Springdale, AR • Little Rock, AR • Ft.

Soil consolidation parameters were estimated based on available empirical data, our engineering judgement, and our experience with similar soils. A consolidation test was not performed for this site. The total settlement under foundation loads designed using an allowable soil bearing capacity of 2,500 psf was estimated to be approximately 1.7 inches, which is considered excessive and not within the tolerable limits. To reduce the estimated total settlement, the proposed building can be supported on conventional shallow foundations designed using an allowable soil bearing capacity of 1,500 psf. Total settlement due to foundations designed as such and bearing 24 inches below the adjacent exterior grade should be on the order of 1 inch or less with differential settlement less than 0.5 inches. The output from Settle 3D is attached to this letter. If a higher bearing capacity is desired, a different type of foundation or soil improvement method will be required. Refer to Section 5.2 of the report. We recommend that the foundation excavations be evaluated during construction to verify the design bearing values. We recommend hand rod probing and dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) testing, in accordance with ASTM STP-399, be performed for all foundation excavations. Hand rod probing should be performed for 100 percent of the excavations, and DCP testing should be performed for at least 20 percent of the column footings, with 1 test per 75 linear feet in strip footings. Soils not meeting the allowable capacity recommendations above should be stabilized, undercut, and backfilled with compacted structural fill, or washed NCDOT No. 57 stone wrapped in non -woven filter fabric. Undercut depths may vary depending upon conditions observed during construction. We appreciate the opportunity to provide consultation services for the proposed project. If you have any questions regarding the information in this letter or need any additional information, please call us. Respectfully Submitted, BUILDING & EARTH SCIENCES, LLP.
