Geotechnical:

Visit the site one (1) day prior to beginning of drilling to ensure the drilling locations were not moved or disturbed.
Recoup lost time and labor costs for one day’s worth of cancelling drilling work on July 31, 2023, and additional mobilization fee from drilling performed on October 10, 2023.
Remark, notify USA, perform geotechnical survey at DBY23-04, which was unable to drill due to underground concrete in the designated area.
Perform six (6) corrosion tests on samples from 30 to 80 feet deep to assess suitability for deep foundations.
Structural:
The unforeseen delays in fieldwork resulted in delays in receiving updated recommendations by Diaz-Yourman. As such, significant rework was required of the design based on the new recommendations provided by Diaz-Yourman. Specifically, it was determined that the upper layer of clay soils is susceptible to large amounts of settlement and that deep foundations will be the most feasible system, instead of the shallow spread footing system previously pursued. Additionally, the weak clay soils require reconsideration of the slab on grade design for heavy loading and for equipment support pads.
