.2. LThe-.organic soils .are underlain by a sandy silt layer which
:ranges in :thickness from 2.5' 'to 21.5'· The sandy silts
:have 'vmry low permeability.
3. Stratas of gravelly sands and sandy gravels with significant
· silt content were encountered throughout the site. They
ranqed in depth from 2.5 feet to 20 feet. Their thickness
ranges from about 2.5 feet to 7 feet.
4. The free water table was not identified during'~[he explora-
tion, but some near surface seepage was noticed in two of
the test holes, indicating some potential for a perched
ground water table during the wetter months of the year.
5. The site is suitable for conventional shallow spread footings
as defined under the Recon~nendation~.
Sandy silts found on the project site are not suitable for
structural fill.
Sands and gravels found on the project site appear 'to have
some potential for structural fill and as a leading field
for sewage disposal systems. The horizontal and vertical
extent of these materials was not fully defined by this
exploration.
Two percolation tests were perfor]ned. They yielded percola-
tion rates of 17 minu~es per inch and 8.3 minutes per inch.
Our past experience with the glacial tills found in this
project area indicates -that the higher value of 17 minutes
per inch is more typical of the site soils. Fine grained
glacial tills do not possess good percolation values.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Foundation Systems
A. C_on~ventional Shallow S_~[ead Eootings
Minimum Widths:
a) Continuous
wide.
footings should be at least 14"
b) Isolated square footings should be at least
18" square.
c) Footings should be sized so that the soil
bearing value listed in ~his report is not
exceeded.
d) Unheated foo[~ings should be at least 6" w~der
than their stcm (or co].umn) . Reinforce the
stent and footing to resist tensile, uplift,
forces along the face of the stein.

Minimum depth of cover:
a) Heated perimeter footings; 4' below nearest
surface grade to bottom of footing.
b) Heated interior footings; 2' be~u~w nearest
surface grade to bottom of footing.
c)
Unheated footings; 5' below surface grade to
the top of footing, where moderate movement
may be .tolerated. Where seasonal movement may
not be tolerated, provide heat, or provide 2
inches of Styrofoam SB (blue) insulation
placed 12 inches below grade for no less than
3 feet outboard of the unheated footing.
Insulation
a)
Provide a frost bond break and thermal
barrier by placing at least 1 inch of
Styrofoam SB (blue) or similar non-water
absorbing, gas filled, polystyrene, rigid
insulation below grade along the outboard
face of all perimeter footing walls. The
purpose of the insu].ation is as follows:
l)
To control heat loss by directing heat
flow down from the interior floor or
slab along the footing wall and under
the footing to keep the underlying
foundation soil thawed,
2)
To provide a resilient surface to
absorb horizontal frost heave strains
which would otherwise act directly on
the footing's face,
3)
TO provide a slip plane to absorb
vertical frost heave strains which would
otherwise act directly on the footing's
face.
Note: A heated structure is defined for the
purposes of this report as a building which
is heated during the winter months for its
entire life, including construction. Addi-
tionally, the floor slab must be uninsulated
to allow heat to flow into the soil.

~)
Zn specific instances styrofoam SB (blue)
insulation should be placed at or near the
ground surface beneath or about specific
improvements to maintain the depth of frost
penetration within the insulation or within
acceptable limits.
4. Allowable Bearing Value:
a)
Allowable bearing value for minimum width
footings is 4000 psf.
II. Earthwork
A. Site Preparation
Ail organic material, frozen soil, loose fill and
debris should be removed from the work site prior
to placing any structural fill, slabs, or foot&ngs.
Do not start structural fill operations or footing
construction on frozen soil. Protect soils used
for founding footings or grade slabs from freezing
during and subsequent to construction.
Protect foundation soils from surface and subsurface
water intrusion during the construction secuence.
Construction roads and/or work pads may be necessary
in the summer months to separate construction
traffic from the silts. These soils may become
unstable (muddy) if not adequately protected.
In areas of high intensity heavy truck loading two
to three feet of compacted sandy grew J or gravelly
sand may be zequired to diffuse the dyuamic stress
generated by this traffic to within acceptable
limits. An alternative section is 18" of NFS
material with a filter fabric similar to ~4irafi la0
placed directly on the silts. The thickness of
the section will be a function of the weight of
the vehicles, tire size, and number of passes.
Sections should be estimated for construction, but
placed as expedient to the task. (Note, this
consideration, while possible, is not believed to
be probable).
Structural Fill
1. Materials:
a. Imported
1)
~all graded, non-frost susceptible (NFS)
sandy qrave].s or gravelly sands are
Alaska Corporatior Qf Seventh Day Adventists
January 14, 1977
Page 5
preferred° The last 12 inches of fill
below footings or slabs should have an
upper size limit of about 2 inches,
while that below, if any, may include
occasional cobbles. The lower limit of
grain size is not more than 5% passing
the #200 screen.
2)
Materials of similar nature, but with
more than 5% passing the !!200 screen are
often used as the supply of the preferred
material dwindles. Soils of this nature
may be used as structural fill. However,
if more than 3% passes the 0.02 mm size,
the materials are considered to be frost
susceptible and must be kept in the
thawed state during and subsequent to
construction. In order to provide a
stable fill without subsequent sub-
sidence, 'these soils must be placed at
very near, or at: slightly less than the
optimum moisture content. Too much
moisture causes the soil to become
unstable during compaction, and with too
little moisture the soil will not attain
sufficient density at a reasonable
compactive effort or lift thickness.
Control of moisture content and surface
water becomes increasingly important as
the silt content increases. In all
cases at least 35% of the fill material
should be +I[4 screen size, and in no
case should the silt content (-!!200
screen size) exceed[ ~2%.
On-Site Soils
1)
If the on-site silty sandy gravel, if
used as a structural fill, it also must
remain thawed during and subsequent to
construction, and must be placed at or
slightly less than optimum moisture. It
should not be placed within 12" of the
footings unless all of the plus 2"
material is screened out. We expect the
on-site soils to be difficult to manage
and compact due to the higher than
preferred silt content. Quality control
will be as much a function of the inspectors
opinion as it is of field density
tests. Excessively cobbly material is
not acceptab].e fill material..
Alaska Corporation of Seventh Day Adventists
January 14, 1977

2)
Any fill material placed directly over
silts should be an easily compacted
material, that is, a very clean, well
graded sandy gravel with less than 5%
passing the ~200 screen. The fill
should be compacted with an initial lift
of no less than 2-1/2 nor more than
3-1/2 feet "loose" to lim~ the stress
intensities at the fill/silt interface
to acceptable limits. We expect a
vibratory compactor equivalent to a
"Ray-Go Rascal Model 400" to be sufficient
for this need. Drainage of the fill
material is absolutely imperative where
placed and compacted over the silts.
A layer of porous polyester fiber
fabric similar to Marifi 140 may be laid
between the fine grained soils and ~he
fill to minimize the intermixing of
these materials. In such an application
the fabric may be laid directly on the
ground surface, ii1 which case a minimum
of 18 inches of well graded sandy gravel
should be placed over the fabric before
initial compaction.
Densification:
a)
Ail fill placed to support structures, load
bearing areas, or to be used as base or
subbase for roads, driveways, or parking lots
should be thoroughly and uniformly compacted.
1)
2)
3)
Below footings, grade slabs, or under
paved areas the minimum permissible
density for any one 'test should be 95%.
Non-load bearing backfill against
footing walls should have a minimum
permissible density of 88% wi'th an
average value of at least 93%.
Compaction tests should be taken in
every lift, with lifts being no more
than 18" thick where large vibratory
compaction can be satisfactorily used,
and lifts no moire than 6" where smaller
vibratory compactors, or where static
compactors (sheepfoot roller or rubber-
tired roller) are necessary to the soil
type.

C ·
4) 3Compaction of non-cohesive granular NFS
!soils is most effectively accomplished
with large, vibratory compactors and
~sufficient quantities of water.
Compaction of cohesive or moisture
sensitive soils is best acc~DPlisted at
slightly ].ess than optimum meisture, and
never at moisture contents above optimum,
and generally is best accomplished in
thin lifts with static roller, sheep-
foot, or rubber-tired compactors.
5) In-place field densities may be deter-'
mined by comparison with the Providence
Field Standard (in NFS material only),
the Alaska Testlab Area Standard for
granular soils or AASHO T180, Method D.
Natural coarse grained soils should be
compacted if they are within 12" of the
bottom of a footing or if they are used as
base or subbase materials to correct inevit-
able disturbance of the soils due to excava-
tion, grading and miscellaneous construction
operations.
Fine grained soils are not generally easily
recompacted so care should be taken to
maintain their natural structure in order
that they may develop the allowed bearing
values. Reductien of bearing values may be
required in slightly disturbed soils. Over
excavation and replacement with a structural
fill may be required in extreme cases.
Excavation
~) Excavations for feotings in fine qrained
material (silts) must. be done with care.
Where wet and disturbed, these foundation
soils will become unstable (rubbery).
Corrective measures will then have to be
taken to restore their stability (i.e.
drying, redensification or removal and
replacement). This situation can be
minimized by selection of the proper
;construction techniques.
2) Foundation aad utility trench excavations
in dry to damp silty sands and silts
should shaad well. When dug in granu].ar
.materials (saads and gravels), the
Alaska Corporatic

-4)
excavation should be expected to slough.
.Side slopes of 1 horizontal (minimum) to
1 vertical are recon~nended for dense
granular soils; 1.5 horizontal (minimum)
to 1 vertical are recommended for
medium dense granular soils; and 2
horizontal (minimum) to 1 vertical are
recommended for loose: granular soils.
Excavation in frozen material should
stand well, but may ~[[ough without
warning, particularly during }periods of
thaw. Additional controls with regard
to shoring and side slopes may be
required by various Federal and State
regulatory organizations depending on
the nature of the excavations.
Utility Trenches:
(a)
Ail utility trenches should be
backfilled according to recom-
mendations stated in Paragraph
IIB2a (Earthwork/Densification) ·
Percolation Tests:
Two percolation test holes were drilled
during this investigation. When drilling
was completed a 3/4" slotted PVC pipe
was inserted in the holes to aid in
determining tt~e free water level. For
the percolation test, the test ho].es
were filled with water add left over-'
night to saturate. On returning the
next day, the holes were refllled with
water and the drop Jn the water level
was monitored over the next 60 minutes.
This procedure is in accordance with 'the
'Munic]pal~!:y of Anchorage, Department of
Public Health and Environmental Protection
procedu~:es to evaluate a site for a
proposed on-site sewerage system.
using the above test, the observed
percolation rates were 17 minutes per
inch feI~ test hole P-1 and 8.33 minutes
per inch for test hole P-2. In our
opinion ~he hiqhor w~lue (17 minutes per
inch) is the more typical value as it
reflects tho q]acial tills commonly
found on thc in'eject site.

7The.extent to which the site soils can
~absorb prolonged slightly treated effluent
~discharge from a septic tank system was
not,resolved in this study. Should
· ~subsurface sands and gravels prove to be
extensive and continuous, simple on-site
sewage systems should work adequately.
However, if these strata are isolated
and confined in pockets, simple on-site
sewage systems may pose disposal problems
in the future.
Strong consideration should be given to
the use of a packaged treatment plant.
~Septic systems discinarge solid matter
into the soils which tends to clog or
plug absorption fields and the adjacent
soil sections, further reducing the
soils capacity to absorb water. The
packaged treatment plants break down and
retain the majority of the so].ids found
in sewage and tlnereby reduce significantly
the adverse effect that solid wastes
.have on soil sections. This could prove
~particularly helpful on this site.
III. Grading and Drainage
A. Surface
The shallow soi].s are often nearly impermeable and,
therefore, an indentation in the surface will collect
and hold water. Sucln areas when exposed to and disturbed
by 'traffic will become unstab3e. Surface water will[ be
perched on top of the silts affecting any improvement
not provided wi'tin proper drainage. That water should
be collected and directed away from the developed
~areas. Gradients of three to five percent are expected
to be sufficient for this purpose. The comprehensive
site grading aud drainage must protect excavations from
excessive surface water which might cause side wall
erosion of earth slopes, as well as localized flooding
of improvements such as basements and crawl spaces---
should the rate of surface water intrusion exceed the
capacity of the drainage facilities.
Subsurface
Water flow or seepage can be expected at random levels
in excavations. The source of this water is expected
to be from surface sources both on and off site.

Subdrains and drain tiles perform best when surrounded
by a graded filter. The fine grained soils should be
isolated by a 3" to 6'' layer of sand, such as that used
in p.e. concrete, overlaid with 3" to 6" of uniform
3/4" graved, conforming to p.c. concrete specs. The
pipe should be laid with slots or perforations down and
then covered with more 3/4" gravel. The remainder of
the trench should be NFS material. ...A..n equally accept-
able and preferred alternative includes the use of a
polyester fiber filter fabric,, such as Mirafi 140
manufactured by Celanese, to simplify, the drains
construction. The MJrafi is wrapped about the drain.
The gravel backfill in this alternative may be more
loosely graded though it should include at least 35%
sand and be well graded.
Bo
sections
Suggested paving
A. Light traffic loadings: 2" A.C. paving with 4" of D-1
~lev~ling course and 18" (~ninimum) of NFS soil is
reco~]ended. See Section IV.C. below for a modified
section. This section is suited to auto parking.
Heavy traffic loadings: 2" A.C. paving with 6" of D-1
base/leveling course and 30" of NFS soil is recoimnended.
See Section ]V.C. below for a modified section. ThJ_s
section is suited to main traffic arteries and truck
The amount of D-1 materlal may be reduced to as little
as 2", if 6" o~--[q-FS subbase material of graded sandy
graved, or a gravelly sand with a significant gravel
content (unless deflned elsewhere), is placed below the
base course. The remainder of the subbase must be
compacted NFS soil.
The purpose of these sections is to provide a satis-
factory base for traffic loadings and to control frost
heave, so the pavements can carry the traffic loads
during spring tlnaw without excessive "chuckholing" or
other pavement failures. Transverse or longitudinal
gradients on the order of ~.5%-~ will discourage the
formation of "birdbaths" during the thaw.
Drainage of the subbase is recommended. In this
regard continuity of drainage to a suitable collection
point or discharge point by maintaining positive grade
of 'tine subbase to tine point is required. Where positive
continuity is broken a collection point is required.
The collection point may be a ]engtln of perforated CMP
placed transverse to the road in thc- subbase and sur-
rounded by a graded filter or filter fabrlc as described
iii the subsurface drainage sect~on of thi. s report. The
collector may be discharged ['t~ the area storm drain
system, or other suitable outlet,
Alaska Cot ~orat[on of

Where paving is to be deferred, the surfacing should
include sufficient D-1 or similar materials to accept
the traffic without excessive maintenance. We suggest
6" for the initial treatment renewed as necessary.
Subarctic Construction Practice
A. P.C. Concrete where related to foundaE%on items.
Exposure
P.C. concrete, particularly thin sections, such as
curb gutter, walks, and drives, exposed to eave
drippings, de-icing salts and other actions which
cause frequent wetting and drying and/or freezing
and thawing, suffers the most severe environmental
conditions for that material. The degree of
protection from exposure is coupled to the curing
period as well as the air entrainment and cement
factor of the mix.
Thus, we routinely suggest that p.c. concrete
placed between mid-September and May include at
least 5.5 sacks of Portland cement/cubic yard, and
admixture the "pozzolith, 300N" or at ].east 6
sacks of portland cement/cubic yard; that air
entrainment be near the upper accepted limits, 6-~-
1.5% for 3/4" maximum size aggregate concrete; and
the slump be the least commensurate with placing
and finishing operations (4" slump is generally
adequate to this purpose); and that the concrete
be surface dry or drier prior to being exposed to
freezing temperatures (i.e., after initial cure, 3
days or preferably ]]]ore, allow to dry before
turning heat off in temperature prospected work).
Where de-Jcing agents are used, the owner should
be warned that he will eveatually damage the
concrete. That damag? is often slowed substantJally
by periodic treatment with linseed oil cut 3:1
with gasoline or other thinner. ']3he common
application periods are at one year and then at
three-year intervals.
Cracking of p.c. concrete slabs can be reduced by
allowing them to be free floating. Slabs exterior
to the structure must not be connected to the
footings, as they--will receive some d~fferential
vertical movement duc to frost action. Control
joints should be placed at each change itl section
or direction and at uot. more than the width of the
slab as appropriate to the work.

B. Frost }leave
1. Structures
Care should be taken to cause Surface water to
drain away from the work in areas of cyclic freeze
and thaw, near entrances and about the perimeter
of heated structures. (It is assumed that structures
will have sufficient heat loss to maintain the
bearing soils in the thawed state.) Unheated
foundations remote from heated buildings may heave
unless founded well below the frost line, which is
deepest in areas of snow removal or compaction.
For typical areas, the footlng section for unheated
structures described previously in this report is
reasonable, and should not develop excessive heave
even though it is embedded within the ultiraate
frost zone. The use of permeable backfill,
impermeable surface seals and resilient frost
breaks should prevent frost heave stresses from
beco~ning excessive on tire footings and grade
beams.
We trust the foregoing is sufficient and complete to your present
needs, though not necessari].y exhaustive of the possibilities.
If there are questions or J.f we may be of further service please
do not hesitate to call our office.
Very truly yours,
