Dear }~. Gifford:
The office has no objection to the construction of a septic tank-
seepage system 150 feet from the proposed well. The septic tank-
seepage system must not be located under the parking area or other
areas cleared of snow and must meet standards required by the
Municipaliyt of Anchorage.

or other problems that may arise.
,CONCLUSIONS
.1.
· Soil conditions at the site are satisfactory to support the
planned, single story, 100' x 120' metal hanger.
-J..D. Gifford & Assocl=tes
August 17, 1976 '
Page 2
The site has been cleared of vegetation and regraded, with the
north end of the building being in a cut section and the south
end of the building having 7' to 8' of fill over natural grade.
The native soils used for fill material are ~redominately a
silt or slightly sandy silt that is relatively dry. The
soils are highly frost susceptible. The fill in some areas
has not been thoroughly compacted and is relatively soft.
Though the native soil exposed is in a relatively dry state
at this time, if exposed to moisture over a period of time
the site could quickly turn into a quagmire making construction
difficult.
Percolation data taken of the site indicates that construction
of an on-site sewage disposal system to serve the restrooms
planned for the hanger will be feasible.
®
No water table of significance was detected in any of the
test holes to the depths explored, though it should be
remembered that the water table will fluctuate with seasonal
and climatic changes. Values listed in test hole logs for
the depth to water table are valid for the date of drilling
only. It is difficult to determine the exact location of
~ ..... ~ tab!c~..~ fin~ -~- ___.__~ without the pl~.c~ng ~T,~
monitoring of observation wells. ..
®
No permafrost or normally loaded soft clay and/or silt layers
were detected that might lead to excessive time dependent
settlement of the structure.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Foundation System: Well constructed, conventional, shallow,
spread footings placed on compacted, non-frost susceptible
(NFS) fill will be adequate.
Minimum width: Continuous footings should be at least
~-4~e, w---~le isolated, square footings should be at
least 18" square. Size footings using the soil bearing
capacity listed in this report and the footing design
load.
Minimum depth of cover ~r~m the nearest surface grade
~-6~-6-~omo-~f~t~mlnlmum depths should also
be maintained diggonally to the edge of the building pad):
}~eated perimeter footings; 4' below surface
.grade.
,J.D. Gifford & Associates
August 17, 1976 '
Page 3
Ce
2)
}Ieated interior footings; 2' below surface
grade.
3)
Unheated footings; 5' below surface grade to
the top of footing. Also, footing should be
at least 6" wider than stem (or column).
Reinforce stem and footing to resist tensile
uplift forces along face of stem.
Insulation: Provide a bond break and thermal
barrier, by placing 1" of Styrofoam SB (blue) or
similar closed cell, non-water absorbing, gas
filled, polystyrene, rigid insulation below grade
along the outboard face of all perimeter footing
walls. The insulation serves three functions:
l)
TO control heat loss by directing heat flow
do~m, from the interior slab, along the
footing wall and under the footing to keep
the underlying foundation soil thawed.
To provide a ~esilient surface to absorb
horizontal frost heave strains which would
otherwise actu~y~' ' .... on '~="- footing face.
3)
To reduce the freeze-thaw cycles the concrete
footing will experience, by having the concrete
on the "warm side" of the insulation.
Note: To be properly termed a heated structure,
the building must be heated during the winter
months for its entire life, even during
construction. Additionally, the floor slab
must be uninsulated to allow heat escapement
down into the soil.
Soil Bearin_~ Capacity: .Use a maximum bearing
v-~e'~--f 2,000 psf. This assumes at least 2' of
'cover. Footing widths greater than 6' should not
be used without consulting the writer.
Earthwork
a. Excavation
Excavate and waste all loose fill, frozen
soils, or organic soils _p-~-~t) from beneath
any structures or load bearing areas.
'J~D. Gilford & AsSociates
August 17, 1976
Page 4
3)
4)
Excavate all frost susceptible soils from within
one foot of the bottom of all foo--6~-~gs and
grade slabs and replace with compacted, non-
frost susceptible (NFS) fill.
Excavate all loose fill, frozen soils, organic
· soils or frost susceptible soils from around the
perimeter of all footings, horizontally for a
distance equal to at least one-half the depth of
material excavated from beneath the footing, and
replace with compacted, non-frost susceptible
(NFS) fill.
Excavate all loose fill, frozen soils, or organic
soils (peat) from beneath roads, driveways, and
parking areas, though under some conditions it
may be acceptable to leave some or all the
peat in place and simply overlay the peat
with non-frost susceptible (NFS) fill. If
this is done, minimum depth of fill over the
peat is three feet under light traffic
loadings and four feet or more under heavy
traffic loadings. The more peat ]eft in
place, the higher the maintenance costs for
the paved areas will be.
Excavate and waste all frost susceptible
soils that are-within the base and subbase of
the section.for roads, driveways'or parking
lots, for only non-frost susceptible (NFS)
soils are adequate for these purposes. The
depth of NFS base and subbase is a function
of the traffic loading expected, and will
range from 18".for access driveways, 24"
fo~ aircraft parking apons and 36", or more,
for areas of heavy truck traffic.
' Foundation excavation and utility trenches,
when dug in silty sands, silts, and clays
should stand well when dry to damp. When dug
in granular materials (sands and gravels);
the excavation should be expected to sluff.
Side slopes of at least 1:1 are recommended
in such conditions. Sluffing will increase
substantially when the excavation goes beneath
the water table. Excavation in frozen material
should stand well, but may sluff without
warning, particularly during periods of thaw.
Additional controls with r~gard to shoring
.'J,D. Gifford & Associat, es
'August 17, 1976 '
iPage 5
.and side slopes may be required by various
federal and/or state regulatory organizations
· depending on the.nature of excavation.
Fill
2)
3)
Ail fill used to support structures, or other
load-bearing areas, or as base or subbase for
· roads, driveways and parking lots should be
· non-frost susceptible (NFS), granular material.
To reduce "pumping" of fines and facilitate
compaction, the amount of material, by weight,
.passing the %200 screen, should be less than 5%.
The first lift of fill placed on the native soils
.should have a significant gravel content and may
~include occasional cobbles. The sand fraction
~(-~4, +~200) should exceed 30% of the total.
]The'last'12"'of fill below footings or slabs
~should have an upper size limit of less than 2".
7It-is-advisable to perform mechanical analysis
-.test on all fill placed, to verify the material's
~frost.classification and gradation, to help
:assure the quality of the ~ill.
.Compaction
'All'fill.placed to'support.structures, load
~beariDg areas, or to be used as base or subbase
for.roads, driveways, or parking lots should be
7thoroughly and uniformly compacted.
:a) 'Below footings, grade slabs or under
~paved areas the minimum permissible
;density for any one test should be 95%.
Backfill against footing walls should
.have a minimum permissible density of
~88% with an average value of at least
~93%.
~Compaction tests should be taken in
~every lift, with lifts being no more
· .than 18" thick.
.Compaction of granular, NFS fills is
~usually best done with large, vibratory
,compactors and sufficient.quantities of
~water to have free water come to the
.surface during compaction.
'J~D. Giff0rd & Associates
August 17, 1976
Page 6
e
2)
e)
In-place densities may be determined by
comparison with the Providence Field
Standard (in NFS material only), the
Alaska Testlab Area Standard or AASHTO
T180, Method D.
Natural soils should be compacted if they are
within 12" of the bottom of the footing or if
they are used as base or subbase materials.
This is to correct inevitable disturbance of
the soils due to excavation, grading and
miscellaneous construction operations.
Grading and Drainage:
ae
Surface
1) Grade at a minimum of 3% for 10' away from
structure, and a minimum of 1.5% elsewhere.
Direct surface water well away from developed
areas to storm drains and drainage ditches.
2) Exterior surface grade should be depressed
below the finish floor at all "at grade" entrances
to buildings.
3~ Seal the surface of all'pe~imeter footing excava-
tions. This can be done by either, paving the
surface or backfilling the top 12" of the
excavation with impermeable soil,.such as silt or
clay.
Control of surface water and ground water during
construc~-~on will '~re--~y speed construction.
Use construction ditches, sumps and pumps to
keep all excavations and trenches well drained.
Subsurface - Subdrains and perforated storm drains,
if used, shoul--~b-~ su---~round~d by a graded------~ilter.
The fine grained soils should be isolated by a 3"
to 6" layer of sand, such as that used in making
concrete, overlaid with 3" to 6" of uniform 3/4"
gravel. The pipe should be laid slot or perfora-
'tions down and then covered with more 3/4" gravel.
The remainder of the trench should be NFS material
to within 6" of the surface. An alternate, and
probably better, filter is to wrap the drain with
a fiber drainage such as Mirafi 140 manufactured
by Celanese.

Suggested Paving Sections:
a®
~Light traffic loadings: Use '2" A.C. paving with
4" of D-1 crushed base/leveling course and 18" of
iNFS soil. See section 4c below for a modified
.section.
:b.
:IIeavy truck traffic loadings: Use 2" A.C. paving
with 6" of D-1 crushed rock base/leveling course and
124" of NFS soil. See Section 4c below for a
modified section.
3Aircraft parking aprons: Use 2" A.C. paving with 6"
'of D-1 crushed rock base/leveling course and 36" of
~NFS soil for aircraft types up to DC-6 or equivalent
:and 48" for up to a Boeing 727 or equivalent.
%The amount of D-1 material in the above three sections
:may be reduced to.as little as 2" if the NFS
]subb~e material is a graded sandy gravel or a
~sand with a significant gravel content and not
.simply a fine sand. The purpose of these sections
is to provide a satisfactory b~ £u~ t~af£ic
loadings and to control frost heave, so pavements.
~can carry traffic loads during spring thaw without
~excessive "chuck-holing" or other pavement failures.
~ransverse or longitudinal gradients on the order
of ~.5%+ will discourage the formation of "birdbaths"
~uri~g the thaw.
~5. Miscellaneous:
~Care should be taken tocause surface water to drain
iaway from the work in areas of cyclic freeze and
~thaw, near entrances and about the perimeter of
~heated structures. (It is assumed that structures
~ill 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
~ypical areas, the footing of Section 1(b)3 is reasonable,
.and should not develop significant heave even though
~t is embedded within the ultimate frost zone. The
~use of permeable backfill, impermeable surface seals
~and frost breaks should prevent frost heave stresses
:from becomi~g excessive on the footing.
· J'.D. Gilford & A~soc~%tes
August 17, 1976

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 differential vertical
movement due to frost action.. Control joints should
be placed at each change in section or direction and
at not more than the width of the slab as appropriate
to the work.

~DISCUSSION
'The exploration was conducted July 27, 1976 using a Nodwell mounted
'~Mobile Drill B-50" drill rig owned and operated by Denali Drilling, Inc.
'~he test holes were logged and the drilling supervised by }~. O.M. Hatch,
~senior technician/geologist with Alaska Testlab. Six test holes were
drilled: 1-16 feet; 4-22.0 feet; and 1-32.0 feet. Continuous flight,
hollow stem auger was utilized for drilling test holes 1 through 5
.with samples being taken down hole, through the hollow stem. For
test hole 6, solid.flight auger was used and samples were taken
directly off the'drill bit as it was raised to surface.
As the samples were recovered they were placed and sealed plastic
-bags to retain natural moisture prior to being transported to the
.laboratory. Once in the laboratory the samples were visually
;classified and the moisture content and dry strengths determined.
}For easy reference, samples of similar color, texture, and particle
.size distribution were given an arbituary group designation. Addi-
-tional laboratory tests were then performed on representative samples
~aken~from-each group and included mechanical grain size.analyses.
!Four general soil types were encountered and are listed below by
~helr group designation.
~Group A--
is a brown silty sand that is moderately frost susceptible
;being rated F-2. Its unified classification is SM and its
~gradation is sho~m on Sheet 1.
~Group B -
.is a brown silt that is highly frost susceptible being
;rated F-4. Its unified classification is ~ and
~its gradation is shown on Sheet .2. This material may.
ihave.some sand lenses or slight traces'of sand.
,Group C-
:is a brown slightly sandy silt that is highly frost
~usceptible being rated F-4. Its unified classification
is'}~ and its gradation is shown on Sheet 3. This soil
:is.practically identical to the soil of Group B. The
¢only difference being a slightly higher sand content.
.Group D -
is a brown gravelly sand that may have a slight trace of
:silt. It is non to moderately frost susceptible being
~rated NFS/F-2. Its unified classification is SP/SM. This
~material was only detected in Test Hole 5.
~t:should prove helpful in interpreting the test hole logs to
review the standard explanatory information contained in this
'report as Sheets 4-6. This information will clarify definations
,of .terms, symbols, and abbreviations used.

The site has been extensively reworked. Ail vegetation has been
cleared, and a hill to the north has been cut down and used to
fill to the south. Consequently several feet of material has
been removed from the northern portion of the building site, while
the southern half of the building has 7' to 8' of fill on it. The
fill placed has not been thoroughly compacted. Consequently the
bearing capacity of the footings has been restricted to no more
than 2,000 pounds per square foot with a minimum of 2 foot of
cover for the footing.
The native fine grain soils are also highly frost susceptible and
footings should not be placed directly on them. At least one foot
of thoroughly compacted, non-frost susceptible fill should be placed
over the entire building pad to found the footings and floor slab on.
Even with this precaution, if the soils are allowed to freeze
significant frost heave will develop. The structure must be
kept heated at all times, particularly during construction.
It would also be wise to note that in Test Hole 5, at the southwest
corner of the building, a 6" layer of peat was found to exist from
5-1/2' to 6' The peat has probably experienced the major portion
of its consolidation all ready, but will continue to consolidate
an~ docompo~e with time. ~b~ footing excavation should be over
excavated in this area and the peat removed.
Gravel fill should be placed on top of the native soils as soon
as possible. Now the soils are dry, and easy to work on. Any
significant amount of rain, though, will turn the site into a
quagmire. Placing of the fill promtly will reduce the effect
of the coming rains.
In the driveways and parking lots, where heavy truck traffic will
not be directed, a standard 18" section as described in the recom-
mendation will suffice. The parking aprons for the airplanes are
different matter though. We.feel that a 36"-48" section in these
areas is more prudent. Even with this though, care should be
taken to keep heavy aircraft loadings to a minimum in the apron
area during spring thaw.
Test tlole 6 was utilized as a percolation test. When drilling was
completed a 3/4" slotted PVC pipe was inserted in the hole to aid
in determining the free water level. For the percolation tests,
the test hole was filled with water and left over night to saturate.
On returning the next day the hole was refilled with water and the
drop in the water level carefully monitored at 10 minutes intervals
for the next 60 minutes.
This procedure is not a standardized percolation test, however,
we understand that the Municipality of Anchorage, Department of
Public IIealth and Enviromental Quality prefers tests performed
in this matter to evaluate a site for a proposed on-site sewage
system.
. J.D.' Gifford & Associates

Using the above text, the observed minimum percolation rate was
1.25 minutes per inch. This is a reasonable value, but quite
high for the types of soils reflected in the test hole log. We
recommend that it would be more prudent to use a design percola-
tion value more on the order of 5 minutes per inch when sizing the
drain field to be used with your septic tank.
No water table was observed during the drilling and should not be
a factor in the performance of the system.
We hope this report is sufficient for your present needs. Please
do not hesitate to contact us if we can clarify any part of it or
answer questions that may arise.

Test Hole Lo9 -- Description Guide
The sell descriptions shown on the logs arc the best est/mate of the soil's
characteristics at the time of field examination and as such do not achieve the
precision of a laboratory testing procedure. If the lug includes soils umplcs,
to verify the field examination.
The logs often include the following items:
Depth Interval - usually shown to 0.! foot, within that zone no
significant change in sell type was observed through drill action, direct
observation or samplio8,
Frost CLassification - NPS, Fl, F2, F3, F4, see "Soil Classification
Chart"
Texture of Soil - An engineering classification of the soils by particle
size and proportion, see "Soil Classification Chart", note the
proportions are approximate and modifications to the sell group due to
stratification, inclusions and changes in properties are included.
Moisture Content -- this L~ a qualitative measure:
dry, no or little apparent surface moisture,
damp, moisture forms portion of color, less than plastic limit,
wet, no free water, often soft, if cohesive soil,
s~turated, free water may be squeezed out. ifa free draining soil:
land. (The me,store content is further defined by reference to Pl.
LW, NP, bt%or d/latency.)
mixtures with or without a fine fraction, derived from drilliog action
and/or sample data; usually described as: very Ioos~, loose, medium
the clay.silt groups. Derived from d~ill action and/or sample data. Very
soft, soft, stiff, very stiff and hard are commonly used terms.
Particle size -- The largest particle recovered by the split spoon is
~by tube 3", auger fiigl~ts (minute-man) 2", Auger flights
(B-S0 hollow stem) 6"-8". Larger particles are described indirectly by
action of the drilling and are referred to as cobbles, 3" to 8", or
boulders 8"+. Therefore when reviewing the gradation sheets, if any.
the description on the hole lug must be considered for an indication of
larger particles.
Unified Soil Classification - ThL~ is a two letter code. See Unified
Classification sheet fur further definition. In some casts AAStlO and/or
FAA soil classifications may be shown as well as IbP unified.
Atterberg Limits - useful for fine grained and other plastic soils.
p._]I; natural moisture content believed to be less than plastic limit
P~-; natural moisture content believed to be between plastic and liquid
~nits
L.__~; natural moisture content believed to be greater than liquid limit
NP; non-pLastic, useful as a modit'ying description of some silty
~'~teri31s.
Dilatency - is the ab!lity of water to migrate to the surface.of i
s~turatcd or nearly saturated sell s~mpie when vibrated or jolted - used
as an aid to determine if a fine stained soil is a slightly ur non-plastic
Rock flour -- fil~e]y ground soil that is not plastic but odlerwise appears
Organic Content - usually described as Peat, PT, sometimes includes
soil. Quantity described as; trace, or an estimate of volume, or, in case
of all organic, - as Peat. This may include tundra, muskeg and b~g
material.
I~uck -- a modifier used to describe very soft, semi-organic deposits
usually occuring below a peat deposit.
Amorphus peat - organic par tic/es nearly or fully disintegrated.
Fibrous Peat - organic particles more-or-less intact.
Frost Line - seasonal frost depth as described ~y drilling action and/or
samples at the time of drilling. '
Frozen Ground -- other than frost line, described by samples, usually
includes description of ice content, often will include modified Unified
CLassification for frozen soils - this is a special case related to
permafrost studies.
Free Water Level - The free water level noted during drilling. Tbis is
seasons. Static water table determination in other than very permeable
soils requires observation wel~s et piezomcter installations, used only in
special cases.
I~Iow~6" - The number of blows ora 140 weight flee failing 30" to
advance a 2" split spoon 6"; the number of blows fur a 12" advance is,
by definition, the standard penetration.
,A% - natural moisture content of the soil sample, usually not
p~t formed on clean sands or gravels below the water table.
SP, refers to 2" split spoon driven into thc soil by 140 pound
~,~ cut sample, undisturbed sample front wall of trench.

Dear Mr. Gifford:
The office h~s no objection to the construction of a septic tank-
seepage system 150 .feet from the proposed well. The septic tank-
seepage system must not be'located under the parking area or other
areas cleared of snow and must meet standards required by the
Municipaliyt of Anchorage.
