, Dear Mr. Marr:
Re: Preliminary Geotechnical Evaluation for Proposed Visitors Center and Parking Areas
� at Noerenberg Memorial County Park, Orono, Minnesota
As you authorized on November 8, 1991, and based on our proposal dated November 11,
' 1991, we have completed our preliminazy geotechnical evaluation for the above-referenced
project.
' The soils encountered in the borings genecally consisted of 1 1/2 to 3 feet of topsoil overlying
glacially deposited sand and clay to the termination depth of the borings. Groundwater was
encountered in the borings ranging in depth from 2 1/2 to 10 feet below the surface
' conesponding to elevations from 932 to 940.
' The majority of soil encountered in the borings will provide adequate support for the �
proposed visitors center. Prior to construction or placing fill, we recommend all topsoil and
the upper softer clay layers be removed from the building area. Once this azea is cut to grade
' � or the fill area is properly compacted, we recommend the building be supported by a typical
spread footing foundation system. We recommend footings be sized to exert a maximum soil
bearing pressure of 2,000 pounds per square foot (ps�.
' In the azkin areas we recommend the su�cial ve etation and to soil be removed rior to
P g , g P P
piacing fill or the pavement section. Based on the soils encountered in the borings, we �
� recommend the pavement section be designed using an assumed Hveem stabilometer R-value
in the range of 10 to 20.
' Please refer to the attached report for a discussion of the investigation results and our analysis .
and recommendations.

A. Introduction
.t
A.1 Purpose
' This preliminazy geotechnical evaluation was undertaken to make an evaluation of the site
subsurface soils�and apparent groundwater conditions relative to construction of a visitors
center and paved parking areas at Noerenberg Memorial County Park in Orono, Minnesota.
' The evaluation will then be used by the Hennepin Parks Department of Planning and
Engineering to design foundations and prepare grading plans and specifications for the
' project.
A.2 Scope
' Three standard penetration test borings were performed in the area of the proposed visitors
center. In addition, four power auger test borings were performed in the proposed parking
' areas. As part of our evaluation, several grain size analyses (number 200 wash) were
performed on select soil samples for classification purposes. With the results of these borings
and laboratory tests, this engineering report was prepared addressing our preliminary analysis
' and recommendations. '
' It should be noted this work was done according to our proposal daterl November 11, 199I.
A.3 Available Information
, Prior to performing our evaluation, a meeting was held at the Hennepin Parks office in
Plymouth to discuss the scope of the project. At that time, we obtained a site plan showing
, the proposed visitors center and parking areas. The plan was prepared by Hennepin Pazks and
dated October 31, 1991.
' A.4 Locations and Elevations
The borings were performed at the locations staked in the field by Hennepin Parks. These are
' shown on the attached sketch.
' Ground surface elevations at the borings were estimated from the surface topography shown
on the available site plan. Thus, the elevations should be considered approximate.

B. Results
B.1 Logs 1
Log of Boring sheets indicating the depths and identifications of the vazious soil strata,
penetration resistances, laboratory test data and groundwater observations are attached. The '
strata changes were inferred from the changes in the penetration test samples and auger
cuttings. Depths shown as changes between the strata are only approximate. The changes are '
likely transitions and the depths of the chanbes vary between the borings.
Geologic origins presented for each stratum on the Log of Boring sheets are based on the soil '
types, blows per foot, and available common knowledge of the depositional history of the site.
Because of the complex glacial and post-glacial depositional environments, geologic origins '
are frequently di�cult to ascertain. A detailed evaluation of the geologic history of the site
was not performed.
1
For this project, the standard penetration test borings are designated by the prefix "ST" and
the power auger borings are designated by the prefix "B". The standard peneuation borings '
were taken in the building area and the power auger borings were taken in the parking areas.
B.2 Soils '
The soiis encountered in borings B-1 through B-4 consisted of 1 1/2 to 3 feet of topsoil
overlying silty sand or silty clayey sand. In borings B-1 and B-3, clays were encountered '
below the silty sand.
In borings ST-5 through ST-7, the soiis encountered consisted of 1 1/2 to 2 feet of clay or '.
clayey sand topsoil overlying granular soils to the termination depth of the borings. The
granulaz soils consisted of poorly graded sand with silt to silty sand. In Boring ST-6, an ,
estimated 2-foot thick layer of lean clay was encountered at a depth of 7 feet. Layers of sandy
silt were also encountered embedde� in the granular stratum.
'
The penetration resistances in the granular strata ranged from 5 to 24 blows pe� foot (BPF).
These values indicate these soils were in a loose to medium dense condition. The peneuation ,
resistance in the clay layer in Boring ST� was 9 BPF, indicating the clay had a rather stiff
consistency.

' B.3 Groundwater
In borings B-1 through B-4, groundwater was not encountered during the drilling operation.
� After the auger had been withdrawn from the bore holes, groundwater was not observed to
cave-in depths ranging from 3 1/2 to 7 1/2 feet.
' In borin s ST-5 throu h ST-7 roundwater was not encountered in an of the borin s durin
g g , g Y g g
the drilling operation or after the hollow-stem auger had reached the termination depth of the
� borin;s. After the auger had been withdrawn from each of the bore holes, groundwater was
observed at depths ranging from 8 1/2 to 10 feet.
, The bore holes were left open for a short period of time, ranging from 30 minutes to
' 3 1/2 hours, before rechecking groundwater levels. In borings ST-5 through ST-7, �
groundwater levels were then measured at depths ranging from 7 to 10 feeC below the surface.
In borings B-1 through B-4, groundwater levels were measured at depths ranging from 2 1/2
' to 4 feet. It is our opinion the water levels measured in borings B-1 through B-4 aze perched
. and do not represent ;roundwater.
' Seasonal and annual fluctuations of the groundwater level should be anticipated. At this site,
we anticipate fluctuations to coincide with the levels of Lake Minnetonka.
' B.4 Laborato Tests
rY
Five classification tests were perfurmed to assist in the identification of the soils. These tests
' consisted of determining the percent material passing the number 200 sieve. The results of
these tests can be found in the ri;ht-hand margin of the Log of Boring sheets at the elevations
' the tests were taken. The tests were conducted according to American Society for :�Iaterials
and Testing (AST1�I) procedures.

C. Preliminary Analysis and Recommendations
tion �
C.1 Proposed Construc
We understand the proposed construction will consist of a one-story visitors center as well as
paved parking and drive areas. At this time, the type of construction, floor grade and building '
loads are unknown. For this report, we have assumed column loads to be less than 50 kips
and wall loads to be less than 3 kips per lineal foot. We have also assumed a floor grade of �
942.0 feet. Once actual loads and tloor grades have been finalized, a review of this report
should be made by us to determine ir the recommendations contained herein need to be '
revised.
C.2 Building Pad Preparation '
We recommend the topsoil and the upper clay layer be removed from within the building
area. The estimated excavation depth at each boring location is about 2 feet. Variations will ,
likely occur between the borings which will not be evident until the excavation is underway.
If areas of the building require fill below proposed footing grades, we recommend the
excavation of topsoil be oversized to provide lateral stability to the fill. The bottom of the '
excavation should be oversized 1 foot beyond the o.utside edge of the footings for each foot of
depth below the bottom of the footing (a 1:1 slope). '
We recommend the bottom of the excavation be observed by our soils engineer or an assistant
to evaluate the completeness of the topsoil removal and the suitability of the soils left inplace. '
This must be cione prior to the placement of fill.
In the area of Boring ST-7, wz recommand the loose silty sand be surface compacted to ,
increase its inplace relative densitv. Given the soil's classification and moisture content, there
is, however, a small risk the surface compaction will result in the sands becoming unstable. If ,
this occurs, a limited subcut of the silty sand may be needed.
With suitable soils exposed, we recommend the bottom of the excavation be surface ,
compacted by several passes of a large drum, self:propelled compactor. This will further
densify the upper natural sands. The excavation can then be backfilled with controlle� fill '
using loose lifts not exceeding 12 inches and compacted by a large drum, self-propelled
compactor. The moisture content of the fill should be within three percentage points of ,
�
' Hennepin Parks
Project BABX-91-589
December 19, 1991
' Page S
,
'
optimum to enhance compatibility. We recommend all fill be compacted to a minimum
relative density of 92 percent of modified Proctor densiry (ASTM D 1557).
'
We understand you propose to obtain fill soils from other portions of this site. Th�ese soils
' will likely be similar to those encountered in the borings. The soils encountered in the borings
are generally over the optimum moisture content and will not make good fill material unless
' dried to lower the moisture content. If the on-site soils cannot be sufficiently dried, drier fill
will likely have to be imported to reestablish grades.
, C.3 Foundations
After completing the recommended excavation and backfill, the soils will be suitabte for
' support of the building using typical spread footings designed for an allowable bearing
pressure of 2,000 pounds per square foot (ps fl.
, We recommend the perimeter footings be founded a minimum of 42 inches below exterior
grade for frost protection. Interior footings may be placed immediately beneath the floor slab,
, provided the building will be heated during the winter months.
C.4 Floor
1 After the building pad preparation has been completed, we anticipate the floor subgrade will
be cumpacted till. Backtill of footing excavations and below-slab mechanical trenches should
' be compacted to a minimum ef 90 pe:cant or the modified Proctor density. The compacte�i till . .
should then be suitable for floor slab support. We suggest the upper 6 inches of soil below the
floor slab consist of a clean sand (less than 10 percent fines passing the number 200 sieve) to
' .recluce capillary rise of ground moisture, and thus reduce the potential for dampness af the
tloor.
, If floor coverin s less ermeable than the concrete slab will be used we recommend a va or
� P , P
barrier be placed beneath the slab. Consideration should be given to burying the vapor barrier
' beneath a layer of sand to reduce curling of the floor slabs.

C.5 Pavements
'
C.S.a Subgrade Preparation: Because of the potential for high groundwater to be ,
encountered during the parking lot construction, we recommend one of two altematives be .
used. ,
• Alternative 1 - If groundwater is not encountered, we recommend the topsoil be ,
removed from the parking and drive areas. The depth of topsoil ranges from 1 1/2 to
3 feet. After removing the :opsoil, the underlying soil shvuld generally be silty sand
or silty clayey sand. These subgrade soils should be scarified if the areas are cut to ,
grade and then compacted to a minimum of 95 percent of the modified Proctor
density. Where fill is required, we recommend it consist of a debris-free mineral soil. ,
The moisture content of the fill should be within three percentage points of optimum
moisture. If placed within 3 feet of final grade, we recommend it be compacted to a
minimum of 95 percent of the modified Proctor density. We recommend fill piaced '
more than 3 feet below finished grade be compacted to a minimum of 90 percent of
the Proctor density. '
• Alternative 2 - If aroundwater is high, we recommend removing only the surficial
vegetation and leaving the remaining topsoil layer. We recommend.the upper 6 inches ,
of the resulting subgrade be scarified and surface compacted. Where fill is required,
we recommend it be placed and compacted as discussed above. If there aze areas '
which cannot be compacted, we recommend the unstable materials be subexcavated
down to stable soil and be replaced by materials which can be compacted.
,
You indicated to us that the current plans call for the use of on-site soils where fill is
required. Therefore, the till materials used in the parkin, lot will likely be similaz to those ,
encountered in t�5e borings. These soils will be a mixture of silty sand, silty clayey sand and
sandy lean clay. Laboratory tests to determine a representative R-value of these soils were not
included in our scope of services. Because of the variability of these soils, we have assumed ,
an R-value in the range of 10 to 20 for our design.

'
' C.S.
b Design Sections: We have assumed only light car traffic with no heavy trucks to be
' using these pazking and drive areas. For the above subgrade and the assumed traffic, we
recommend a minimum of 2 inches of Mn/DOT 2341 wear over 8 inches of crushed
aggregate base.
'
' D. Construction
D.1 Excavation
' Because of the potential for high groundwater, it is our opinion the soils near the bottom of .
any excavation may not be able to support rubber-tired equipment. We therefore recommend
that low ground pressure tracked equipment or a backhoe be used to perform the needed
' excavations.
, D.2 Observations �
We recommend that all excavation, footing, slab and pavement subgrades be observed by a
, geotechnical engineer to evaluate if the subgrade soils are similar to those encountered by the �
borings, adequate to support the proposed construction and adequately oversized. These
observations should be conducted prior to placing backfills, fills or forms for footings.
,
After excavating for footings, we recommend that tests be conducterl on the subgrades to
, evaluate if tl��e bearin; capacity is at least 2,000 psf. Typical instruments useci for ttiese tests
include hand au;ers, penetrometers and sample tubes.
' D.3 BackfilLs and Fills
Site soils which will be excavated and potentially reused as backfill and general site fill appear
' to be wet of the optimum moisture content. We anticipate it wilt be necessary to dry these•
soils to achieve the recommended compaction. We recommend the fill and backfill be placed
in lifts not exceeding 8 to 12 inches, depending upon the size of the compactor and material
' , used.
�
'
'
Hennepin Parks '
Project BABX-91-589
December 19, 1991 ,
Page 8
'
'
D.4 Testing
We recommend density tests be taken in the backfills and fills place� beneath footings, slabs '
and pavements. We also recommend density testing of the compacted pavement subgrade and
gravel base course. Samples of proposed backfill and fill materials should be submitted to our
testing laboratory at least three days prior to placement for evaluation of their suitability and ,
determination of the optimum moisture content and maximum dry density.
D.5 Cold Weather
,
If site grading and construc:ion is anticipated during cold weather, we recommend that good �
winter construction practices be observed. All snow and ice should be removed from cut and
till azeas prior to additional grading. No fill should be placed on soils which have frozen or
contain frozen material. No frozen soils should be used as fill. '
Concrete delivered to the site should meet the tempecature requirements of ASTM C 94. '
Concrete should not be placed upon frozen soils or soils which contain frozen material.
Concrete should be protected from freezing until the necessary strength is attained. Frost
should not be permitted to penetrate below footings beazing on frost-susceptible soil since ,
such freezing could heave and crack the footings and/or foundation walls.
'
E. Procedures
E.1 Drilling and Sampling
'
The penetration test borings were performed on November Z5, 1991, with an off-road, rubber '
tired mounted core and auaer drill equipped with 3 1/4-inch inside diameter hollow-stem
auger. Sampling for the borings was conducted in general accordance with ASTM D 1586,
"Penetration Test and Split-Barrel Sampling of Soils." Using this method, we advancetl the t
bore hole with the hollow-stem auger to the desired test depth. A 140-pound hammer falling
30 inches was then used to drive the standard 2-inch split-banel sampler a total penetration of ,
1 1/2 feet below the tip of the hollow-stem auger. The blows for the last foot of penetration
were recorded and aze an index of soil strength characteristics. Samples were taken at
2 1/2-foot vertical intervals to the 10-foot depth and then at 5-foot intervals to the termination ,
depths of the borings. A representative portion of each sample was then sealed in a glass jar.

'
, . The ower au er borin wer
p g gs e taken with the same equipment in general accordance with
ASTM D 1452, "Soil Investigation and Sampling by Auger Borings." The soil classifications
' and strata depths were inferred from the cuttings brought to the surface by rotation of the
auger. Samples of the auger cuttings were then sealed in a glass jar. .
' E.2 Soil Classification
Soils encountered in the borings were visually and manually classified in the tield by the crew
' chief in accordance with ASTM D 2487, "Classification of Soils for Engineering Purposes,"
and ASTM D 2488, "Description and Identification of Soils (Visual-Manual Proc�;dures).° A
1 summary of ASTM D 2487 is attached. All samples were then returned to our laboratory for
review of the field classifications by a soils engineer. Representative samples will remain in
' our Minneapolis office for a period of 60 days to be available for your examination.
E.3 Groundwater Observations
' Immediately after taking the final samples in the bottoms of the standard penetration test
borings, the holes were probed through the hollow-stem auger to check for the presence of
, groundwater. Immediately after withdrawal of the auger, the holes were again probed and the
depths to water or cave-ins were noted. The borings were rechecked and backfilled just prior
to leaving the site.

General Recommendations
' F.1 Basis of Recommendations
The analyses and recommendations submitted in this report aze based upon the data obtained
' from the soil borings performed at the locations indicated on the attached sketch. Variations
occur between these borings, the nature and �xtent of which will not become evident until
' � additional exploration or construction is conducted. A reevaluation of the recommendations of
this report should be made after performing on-site observations during construction and
'
,
Hennepin Parks '
Project BABX-91-589
December 19, 1991
Page 10 ,
,
noting the characteristics of the variations. The variations may result in additional construction
'
costs, and it is suggested that a contingency be provided for this purpose. ,
To permit correlation of the soil data obtained to date with the actual soil conditions
encountered during construction and to provide continuing professional responsibility for the '
conformance of the construction to the concepts originally contemplated in this report and to
the plans and specifications, it is recommended that we be retained to develop and perform '
the recommended observation and testing program for the excavation and foundation phases of
the project.
�
If others perform the recommended observations and/or testing of construction, professional
responsibility becomes divided since, in doing so, they assume responsibility for evaluating ,
that the soil conditions throughout the construction areas are similar to those encountered in
the borings or recognizing variations which require a change in recommendations.
'
F.2 Review of Design
This report is based on the preliminary design of the proposed structure as submitted to us for '
the preparation of this report. Because of the limited amount of information available, a
number of assumptions were necessary to permit us to make recommendations. It is
recommended that we be retained to review the final design and specifications to determine '
whether thuse assumptions were correct and whether any change in concept may have had an
effect on the validity of our re�ommer.dations, and whether our recommendations have been '
imQlemented in the design and specifications. If we are not permitted an opportunity to make
this recommended review, we will not be liable for losses arising out of inconect
assumptions, design changes, or misinterpretation or misapplication of our reco:nmendations. '
F.3 Groundwater Fluctuations ,
Water level readings have been made in the borings at the times and under the conditions
stated on the boring logs. These data have been reviewed and interpretations made in the text
of this report. However, it must be noted that the period of observation was relatively short '
and that fluctuations in the groundwater level may occur due to rainfall, flooding, irrigation,
spring thaw, drainage, seasonal and annual variations and other factors not evident at the time ,
measurements were made and reported herein. Design drawings and specifications and
construction planning should recognize the possibilities of variations.

Moisture Control: Where subgrade or layer of soil material must be moisture conditioned
before compaction, uniformly apply water to surface of subgrade, or layer of soil �
material, to prevent free water appearing on surface during or subsequent to compaction
operations.
Remove and replace, o� scarify and air� dry, soil material that is too wet to permit �
compaction to specified density.
Soil material that has been removed because it is too wet to permit compaction '
may be stockpiled or spread and allowed to dry. Assist drying by discing, harrowing
or pulverizing until moisture content is reduced to a satisfactory value.

Plow, strip, or break-up sloped surfaces steeper than 1 vertical.to 4 horizontal so that
fill material will bond with existinA surface.
rWhen existing ground surface has a density less than that specified under "Compaction"
for particular area classification, break up Rround surface, pulverize, moisture-condition
to optimum moisture content, and compact to required depth and percentage of
jmaximum density. �
Placement and Compaction: Place backfill and fill materials in layers not more than 8"
� in loose depth for material compacted by heavy compaction equipment, and not more
than 4" in loose depth for material compacted by hand-operated tampers.
Before compaction, moisten or aerate each layer as necessary to prov'ide optimum
� moisture content. Compact each layer to required percentage of maximum dry density
oc relative dry density for each area classification. Do not place backfill or fill material
on surfaces that are muddy, frozen, or contain frost or ice.
� Place backfill and fill materials evenly adjacent to stcuctures, piping oc conduit to
required elevations. Take care to prevent wedging action of backfill against structures
or displacement of piping or conduit by carrying material uniformly around structure,
� piping or conduit to approximately same elevation in each lift.
