AET Project No. 20-06374 — Page 2 of 8 <br /> PROJECT INFORMATION <br /> The addition was constructed to the north and east sides of the existing Trinity Lutheran Church <br /> building. lt is a two story structure covering a footprint of about l 1,500 square feet, with floor <br /> elevations matching the existing building. The addition is supported on conventional spread <br /> footings designed using an allowable soil bearing pressure of 2,500 pounds per square foot (ps�. <br /> The addition is constructed with masonry bearing walls, structural steel framing, and with steel <br /> or wood roofing systems. The site work consisted of new bituminous pavement south and east of <br /> the existing building. <br /> We understand the bui]ding addition was constructed according to applicable building code <br /> requirements. <br /> BACKGROUND INFORMATION <br /> A geotechnical exploration program and analysis was performed for this project by AET. The <br /> results were presented in our Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Review, dated <br /> January 6, 2006 (AET Project No. 01-02675). ]t was recommended in the repori that, after <br /> proper site preparation, the proposed building be supported by conventional spread footings <br /> designed for a maximum net allowable bearing pressure of 2,500 psf. AET recommended in the <br /> report that site preparation for the entire addition footprint consist of excavation of all existing fill <br /> and topsoil. lt was recommended in the report that fill required to achieve design grades beneath <br /> footing and slab areas be granular soil. Refer to the Report Subsurface Exploration and <br /> Geotechnical Review for more detailed information about the soil conditions and the <br /> recommendations for building support. <br />
