Subject: Geotechnical "Hazard Analysis"
Proposed Mixed Use Building — Adjacent Fagnan Property
23004 Edmonds Way
Edmonds, Washington
Dear Mr. Abbott,
As':required by the City q ' f Edmonds Building Division, Kleinfelder, Inc. (Kleinf6lder) is
writing this letter to provide a "Hazard Analysis" statement to meet the requirements of
Edmonds City Development Code (ECDC) Section 23.80.070.A.2, as applicable to the
adjacent property to the Southwest of the site (Fagnan Property). We understand that a
construction easement will be obtained from the adjacent property owner to allow for
temporary sloping past the property line along this side of the planned Mixed Use
construction project, as identified on the construction drawings.
If these temporary slopes are completed according to the recommendations of our
geotechnical report and our subsequent written or verbal recommendations, it is our
opinion that:
1. The proposed temporary slope cuts will not increase surface water discharge or
sedimentation to adjacent properties beyond predevelopment conditions;
2. The proposed temporary slope cuts will not decrease slope stability on adjacent
properties; and
3. The proposed temporary slope cuts will not adversely impact other critical areas.

Edmonds, Washington
Dear Mr. Abbott,
As required by the City of Edmonds Building Division, Kleinfelder, Inc. (Kleinfelder) is
writing this letter to summarize our review of the geotechnical aspects of the
construction drawings prepared for the above -referenced project. Kleinfelder previously
prepared a Geotechnical Report (dated July 10, 2006) and a Geotechnical Supplement
No. I (dated November 21, 2007) for this project. We have also provided a previous
plan review letter for the Townhouse portion of the same project site. We reviewed the
followi ng construction documents related to our current plan review:
232 Id Mixed -Use Building Foundation Permit — Architectural Plan Set (AO.O
through A7.2), dated January 9, 2008, prepared by A.D. Shapiro PS;

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The 'proposed construction will consist of the construction of a 4-story mixed use
building with daylighting below grade parking levels in the southeast portion of the

subject site. Temporary shoring of the below grade excavation for the building along
the slope areas on the southwest side of the property and along 232nd Street SW will be
provided by a combination of temporary excavation sloping and soldier pile and lagging
walls (both cantilever and tieback).
REVIEW COMMENTS
Based on our review of the above -referenced construction documents, we offer the
following comments regarding the geotechnical considerations of the pro posed project:
1. Detail 2 on Sheet C5.0 shows the schematic of an interceptor/subsurface
drainage trench, with a perforated drain pipe enveloped in drain rock and filter
fabric, as recommended in our report. However, we generally also recommend
that the drain rock be "capped" at the ground surface with 12-inches of silty site
soils, in order to prevent surface runoff water from entering the subsurface
drainage system, which could lead to future clogging from excessive silt build-up.
2. Note No. 1 under the "Footing Schedule" table on Sheet S4.1 states that "all
footings shall bear on firm, undisturbed native soil, or compacted structural fill."
For typical bearing pressures on the order of 2,500 psf, it is normally acceptable
to place footing elements on standard, compacted structural fill. However, for the
higher footing loads (4,000 psf) used on this project, we typically recommend that
highly angular rock fill (such as crushed rock base course or ballast), or Control
Density Fill (CDF) be used in fill areas, in order to limit risk of future foundation
settlements.
3. Our Geotechnical Supplement No. 1 included an assumption under the
Temporary Shoring Walls section ("Applied Loads — Hydrostatic Pressures"
subsection, page 7) that "...an underslab drainage system will be installed to
provide a permanent dewatering system for the -structure." Given the very low
groundwater levels observed in our recent borings (not observed within the
maximum explored depth of 51 feet bgs), it is our opinion that this general
underslab drainage recommendation is not required at this site.
In summary, the geotechnical aspects of the referenced construction plans adequately
conform to the design recommendations given in our Geotechnical Engineering Report
and subsequent supplemental recommendations, provided that the above review
comments are incorporated into the final construction documents. If the requirements of
88601/SEA8LO20.doc Page 2 of 3 January 29, 2008
Copyright 2008 Kleinfelder
our geotechnical report and the plans are satisfied during construction, it is our opinion
that the proposed development will not increase the potential for soil movement, and
that the risk of damage to the proposed development or to the adjacent properties will
be minimal.
CLOSURE
It should be realized that our scope of work for this letter was limited to a review of the
geotechnical items shown on the documents supplied to us. Our scope did not include
a check of structural calculations and other non-geotechnical items, nor does our review
purport to verify the accuracy of the documents.

Edmonds, Washington 98122
Dear Mr. Abbott:
Kleinfelder, Inc. (Kleinfelder) is pleased to present this letter summarizing our limited
geotechnical engineering review for the construction excavation and shoring
requirements at the subject site. Kleinfelder previously provided general geotechnical
design recommendations for this project in our Geotechnical Investigation Report (Job
No. 71716, dated July 7, 2006). The conclusions and recommendations of this
supplementary engineering evaluation should only be used in conjunction with our
original geotechnical evaluation for the project. The scope of work for this
supplementary evaluation included a site reconnaissance visit and subsequent
supplementary engineering analyses. Authorization to proceed was given by Mr. James
Abbott of Valhalla, LLC (Valhalla) on October 10, 2007.
SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located at the southwest corner of Edmonds Way and 232nd Street
SW in Edmonds, Washington, as shown in Figure 1, and consists of Parcels A through
F, as shown in Figure 2. In general, the site is relatively level and accessible from
Edmonds Way, sloping gradually from about elevation 200 feet at the southeast end to
a low of about elevation 186 feet at the northwest end. Ho wever, the western perimeter
of the project site runs along an east facing steep slope area. The western property line
zig-zags across the slope face, following a north -south property alignment, with surface
elevations ranging from about 196 near the toe to 216 feet near the upper end of the
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 1 of 13 November 21, 2007

steep slopes. The previous structures at the site have been demolished, leaving a few
relic retaining walls against the hill side along the northwest portion of the site. The
vegetation encountered on -site consisted of grass, brush, and trees. The general
layout of the project site is shown on the attached Figure 2A.
We understand that a mixed use retail building with below grade parking is planned in
the south end of the site, while a series of town homes are planned within the northern
portion of the site. The mixed use building is to be constructed up against the west
property line. The construction excavations required for this structure will require
temporary cut sloping or cantilever/tieback soldier pile shoring walls, or a combination
thereof. Temporary sloping or tieback shoring wall systems will require a temporary
easement from the neighboring properties to be feasible. It should be noted that two
adjacent structures (a small building and garage) are located very near the property
lines west of the planned mixed use building in the. south end of the site. Given the
close proximity of these structures, their age and susceptibility to settlement induced
cracking, we recommend that a shoring wall be used to provide construction excavation
support in lieu of temporary sloping, to reduce potential settlement risks. The town
homes in the northern portion of the site will be setback from the property lines, with a
planned level access drive area between the structures and the slopes to the west.
EXPLORATORY METHODS
The surface and subsurface conditions -at the project site were explored on a previous
site visit for our original geotechnical evaluation, and during a recent site
reconnaissance visit on October 25 and 29, 2007. The previous subsurface exploration
consisted of excavating 10 test pits to a maximum depth of approximately 12-feet below
the existing ground surface (bgs) at the approximate locations shown in Figure 2A. Our
current supplementary study included a recent site reconnaissance visit- and additional
borings advanced along the proposed temporary shoring wall location along the steep
slopes on the western property boundary. Along with boring logs for these current
explorations, we have also included copies of the exploration logs for the previous test
pits with this letter, for convenience. The following paragraphs describe the procedures
associated with the field explorations and field tests that were conducted for this
supplementary investigation.
Auger Boring Procedures
The exploratory borings were advanced with a hollow -stem auger on October 25 and
29, 2007, using a limited access, track -mounted drill rig and portable acker drill rig
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 2 of 13 November 21, 2007

operated by an independent drilling firm working under subcontract to Kleinfelder. A
geotechnical engineer from our firm continuously observed the borings, logged the
subsurface conditions, and collected representative soil samples. All samples were
stored in sealed plastic jars and later transported to our laboratory for further visual
examination and testing. After each boring was completed, the borehole was backfilled
with a mixture of bentonite chips and soil cuttings.
Throughout the drilling operation, soil samples were obtained at 2Y2- or 5-foot depth
intervals by means of the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) per ASTUD-1586. This
testing and sampling procedure consists of driving a standard 2-inch outside diameter
steel split -spoon sampler 18 inches into the soil with a 140-pound hammer free -falling
30 inches. The number of blows required to drive the sampler through each 6-inch
interval is counted, and the total number of blows struck during the final 12 inches is
recorded as the Standard Penetration Resistance, or "SPT blow count.." If a total of 50
blows are struck within any 6-inch interval, the driving is stopped and the blow count is
recorded as 50 blows for the actual penetration distance. The resulting Standard
Penetration Resistance *values indicate the relative density of granular soils and the
relabve consistency of cohesive soils.
The boring logs attached to this letter describe the vertical sequence of soils and
materials encountered in each boring, based primarily on our field classifications and
supported by our subsequent laboratory examination and testing. Where a soil contact
was observed to be gradational, our logs indicate the average contact depth. Where a
soil type changed between sample intervals, we inferred the contact depth. Our logs
also graphically indicate the blow count, sample type, sample number, and approximate
depth of each soil sample obtained from the borings, as well as any laboratory tests
performed on these soil samples. If any groundwater was encountered in a borehole,
the approximate groundwater depth is depicted on the boring log. Groundwater depth
estimates are typically based on the moisture content of soil samples, the wetted height
on the drilling rods, and the water level measured in the borehole after the auger has
been extracted.
Laboratory Testing
As a part of our geotechnical evaluation, we performed a series of Grain Size Analyses,
and Moisture Content Determinations. The results of these laboratory tests are
presented in the enclosed laboratory test reports and on the exploration logs. A general
grain size analysis indicates the range of soil particle diameters included in a particular
88601/SEA71-242.doc
Page 3 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
sample, while a 200 wash indicates how much fines (slit and clay sized particles) that is
contained in a sample. These grain size laboratory tests were performed in general
accordance with ASTM:D-422 and ASTM:C-1 17. Moisture content determinations were
completed,in general accordance with ASTM:D-2216. 'The results of these laboratory
tests were used to develop the soil classifications shown on the exploration logs and
determine whether specific on -site soils will be suitable for re -use as structural fill.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Based on our previous site investigations, the site soils were generally disclosed in our
test pit explorations to consist of medium dense sand and gravel with trace amounts of
silt (Recessional Outwash), overlying dense to very dense, silty sand with varying
amounts of gravel (Glacial Till) on the slope areas, and very dense sand with varying
amounts of -gravel and silt (Advance Outwash) within the low-lying areas of the site. No
groundwater was revealed n, --our previous explorations. Throughout the year,
groundwater levels would likely fluctuate in response to changing precipitation patterns,
o ff-site constructio.n activities, and changes in site utilization. The deeper borings
advanced as a part of our current supplementary study generally confirmed these
subsurface conditions. It should be noted that our exploration along 232nd Street also
confirmed the presence of very dense Glacial Till soils in this area of the site, where
temporary sloping of excavation cuts are planned.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on our findings and the results of our supplemental analyses, the project is
considered feasible from a geotechnical standpoint, provided that -the recommendations
of this supplementary letter are implemented. For the planned cuts within the
southwestem portion of the site (west -side of mixed use building), we anticipate that
temporary sloping may be used, provided that easements can be obtained and the
sections adjacent to the existing neighboring structures are supported by a soldier pile
and -lagging shoring wall system, to limit the risk of undermining- the adjacent structures.
We anticipate that soldier pile and lagging shoring walls -will be required to shore the
vertical cuts (up to about 18 feet high) adjacent to the existing neighboring structures
west of the planned mixed use building. The following text sections of this report
present our specific geotechnical conclusions and recommendations concerning
temporary -shoring walls, spread footings, permanent walls, and drainage systems.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 4 of 13 November 21, 2007

Temporary Excavation Slope Cuts
Temporary excavations should be performed in accordance with current federal, state
and/or local regulations. Temporary excavations in excess of 4 feet vertical height must
be sloped or supported in accordance with Part N of Washington Administrative Code
(WAC) 296-155. For planning purposes, recommend the following, maximum cut slope
inclinations, based on the soil layers encountered within our explorations and the
corresponding OSHA Soil Type classifications:
Maximum
Soil Type Inclination
Medium Dense to Dense Sand with Gravel (Type B Soils) 1HAV
Dense. to Very Dense Glacial Till (Type A Soils) %H:1V
It should be noted that appropriate inclinations will ultimately depend on the actual soil
and groundwater seepage conditions exposed in the cuts at the time of construction. It
is the sole responsibility of the contractor to ensure that the excavation is properly
sloped or braced for worker protection. Furthermore, it should be noted that the cut
slope inclination of any overlying soil layer should not be steeper than the underlying
soillayer, according to OSHA guidelines. In addition to proper sloping, the excavation
cuts should be draped with plastic sheeting for the duration of the excavation to
minimize surface erosion and raveling. Excavations made below the water table will
likely require dewatering and/or shoring.
Temporary Shoring Walls
Temporary shoring walls up to roughly 18-feet high will be required to support the
planned perimeter cuts along the sloping ground areas along the western property. In
our opinion, a conventional, cantilever or tieback soldier pile and -lagging wall would be
well -suited for this purpose. A cantilever, soldier pile shoring wall typically consists of
wood lagging placed between soldier piles installed in pre-augered holes backfilled with
lean mix or structural concrete to a typical depth below the excavation base of about 1.5
times the wall height above grade. The practical and economical vertical height limit for
a cantilevered (unsupported by soil anchors) soldier pile wall is typically on the order of
15 feet. Where the wall exceeds this practical cantilever height limit, soil tieback
anchors are typically installed through the soldier piles to provide the necessary lateral
sup port and limit lateral deflections 'of the wall system; such tiebacks may be installed in
a single row or in a multiple row configuration. A slightly different lateral soil pressure
analysis is required for each of these different wall configurations, as outlined
88601/SEA7L242.doe Page 5 of 13 November 21, 2007

subsequently. It should be noted that special design considerations will be required to
limit wall deflection* and potential ground settlement where the existing adjacent
buildings are located directly on or close to the planned basement cuts. To minimize
the risk of building damage,. we recommend that these portions of the shoring wall be
designed for the horizontal surcharge resulting from such nearby footing loads, or that
the existing footing elements on these buildings be directly underpinned by the soldier
pile wall system. The following recommendations are provided for design of soldier pile
and lagging shoring walls.
Pile Embedment: All soldier piles should have sufficient embedment below the final
excavation level to provide adequate ukick-out" resistance to horizontal loads. We
recommend a minimum embedment of 10 feet below the excavation base. However,
deeper embedment might be needed to develop adequate vertical capacity or passive
resistance at specific locations, based on a structural analysis.
Drillina Conditions: Based on our explorations, we predict that the soldierpile and grout
tieback holes will encounter dense to very dense silty gravelly sand (glacial till) or dense
to very dense. sand with gravel/silt (Advance Outwash). Loose to medium dense
overburden soils can likely be drilled without difficulties, using a conventional auger,
whereas the underlying very dense glacial till or advance outwash soils may yield
slower drilling rates. Although none of our explorations encountered cobbles or
boulders, it should be realized that such obstructions can exist at random locations
within the native deposits. Rubble could also be present within the upper fill soils.
Awlied Loads: Soldier piles should be designed to resist various applied loads, which
can be classified as static pressures, surcharge pressures, seismic pressures, and
hydrostatic pressures. Our recommended design pressures are presented graphically
on the enclosed Cantilever and Tieback Shoring Wall Diagrams (Figure 3) and are
discussed in the following paragraphs.
Static Pressures: For tieback shoring walls having two or more rows of tiebacks,
we generally recommend using an apparent lateral- earth pressure with a
trapezoidal distribution, as shown on Figure 3. Based on the site soils, we
recommend using a peak earth pressure of 25H pounds per square foot (psf),
where H is equal to the height of excavation in feet, for the uniform portion of this
trapezoidal distribution. This static earth pressure should, be applied over the
soldier pile spacing width from the top of the pile downward to the base of
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 6 of 13 November 21,.2007
Copyright 2007 Meinfelder
. I
excavation. Below this level, an active earth pressure of 35 pounds per cubic
foot (pcf), modeled as a fluid unit weight, should be applied over the diameter of
the pile only, as shown on Figure 3. Cantilever. soldier pile shoring walls (without
tiebacks) are designed for the triangular active earth pressure diagram both
above and below the base of excavation level, in lieu of apparent lateral earth
pressures, as noted on Figure 3.
Surcharge Pressures: Lateral earth pressures acting on the soldier piles should
be increased to account for any surcharge loadings from traffic, construction
equipment, material stockpiles, or structures that are located within a horizontal
distance equal to the wall height. For simplicity, a traffic surcharge can be
modeled as a uniform lateral pressure of 75 psf acting over the upper 6 feet of
wall, as shown on Figure 3.
Seismic Pressures: Temporary shoring walls need not be designed for seismic
loads, given the relatively short duration of construction excavation and the
additional load capacity "built into" the static safety factor for the wall. However, if
the shoring wall. is designed in combination with a permanent wall, we
recommend that the lateral earth pressures be increased to account for seismic
loads. These seismic pressures act over the entire back of the wall and vary with
the backslope inclination, the seismic acceleration, and the wall height. For
permanent walls designed for yielding conditions (allowing a wall rotation of
0.001 to 0.002 times the wall height), we recommend using a uniform horizontal
seismic loading of 4H psf, based on the active state lateral earth pressure.
Conversely, a non -yielding (restrained) permanent wall should be designed to
withstand a uniform horizontal seismic loading of 12H psf, based on the at -rest
state lateral earth pressure. The recommended seismic surcharge pressure
distribution is presented graphically on Figure 3.
Hydrostatic Pressures: If groundwater is allowed to saturate the soils behind the
below -grade perimeter walls, hydrostatic pressures will act against the walls. At
this site, however, we are assuming that the shoring walls will be provided with a
geocomposite drainage mat system and that an under -slab drainage system will
be installed to provide a permanent dewatering system for the structure. We
therefore do not expect that hydrostatic pressures will develop.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 7 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
Resistina Forces: Lateral resistance can be computed by using an appropriate
allowable passive earth pressure acting over the embedded portion of each soldier pile,
neglecting the upper 2 feet. The trapezoidal distribution of this allowable passive
pressure can be modeled as shown on Figure 3. This passive pressure should be
applied over a lateral distance equal to the pile spacing or twice -the pile diameter,
whichever is less. For a level excavation base, we recommend using an allowable
passive earth pressure of 375 pcf for the very dense advance outwash sand with gravel,
modeled as a fluid unit weight, in the. static design case; in the seismic case we
recommend using an allowable passive fluid pressure of 500 pcf, as shown on Figure 3.
These allowable passive earth pressures incorporate a safety factor of 1.5 and 1.1 for
the static and seismic case, respectively.
Pile Car)acities and Deflections: Appropriate side -friction. and end -bearing capacities
can be used to determine total vertical capacities of the soldier piles that may be
required to resist underpinning loads or the vertical component of the tieback loads. To
estimate lateral deflections of -the soldier piles, we recommend using, appropriate
subgrade reaction muduli. For the embedded portion of a soldier pile bearing within the
native, very dense glacial till soils or advance outwash sands, our recommended
allowable design values are shown on the enclosed Figure 3 and are summarized
below. The allowable values for side friction and end bearing incorporate safety factors
of 1.5 and 2.0 for temporary and permanent conditions, respectively.
Design Parameter
Allowable Design Values
Temporary -Permanent
Case Case
Side Friction Capacity (very dense sands) 1,500 psf 1,200 psf
End Bearing Capacity (very dense sands) 20 ksf 15 ksf
Our recommendations regarding lagging'design and installation are presented below.
Wood Lagging Materials: Wood lagging is typically installed -in between all soldier piles
to reduce the potential for soil failure, loss of ground, and hazardous working conditions.
In our opinion, either conventional wooden timbers or reinforced shotcrete could be
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 8 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
utilized as lagging at the site. For permanent applications, we recommend that all
wooden timber lagging be pressure -treated.
Lateral Pressures on Wood Lagging: Due to soil arching effects, temporary lagging that
spans. 8 feet or less need be designed for only 25 percent of the lateral earth pressure
previously recommended for soldier pile design. Permanent lagging, on the other hand,
should be designed for 50 percent of this same lateral earth pressure.
Wood Lagaina Backfill: We recommend that any voids greater than 1-inch behind the
lagging be backfilled, but the backfill material should not be allowed to prevent
groundwater flow. If inadequate drainage is provided behind the lagging, hydrostatic
pressure will develop on the wall. Pea gravel would provide an effective lagging backfill
material to promote adequate drainage, whereas concrete, cdf, or other impermeable
materials are not recommended. The void spaces should be backfilled progressively as
the excavation proceeds.
Tieback Conflicts and Easements: Because tiebacks typically extend about 30 to 60 feet
behind the excavation face, conflicts with underground utilities, as well as with adjacent
structures and foundations, often arise. The project structural engineer should carefully
consider the locations of such obstructions when laying out all tiebacks. Easements
might be required for any tiebacks that extend onto private properties and right.;of-way
areas beyond the site property boundaries. It should also be realized that the City of
Seattle does not typically allow permanent tiebacks to encroach on their roadway right-
of-way limits.
Tieback No -Load Zone: The anchor portion of all tiebacks must.be located a sufficient
distance behind the retained excavation face to develop resistance within a stable soil
mass. We recommend that the anchorage be obtained behind a "no-load zone" defined
by a plane projected upward at a 60-degree angle from the base of the excavation and
set back from the excavation face a horizontal distance equal to 25 percent of the face
height, as shown on Figure 3.
Tieback Anchor Length and Spacing: The anchor portion of.the tieback (that portion
behind the no-load zone) should have a minimum length of 10 feet and should be
located at least 10 feet below the ground surface, as shown on Figure 3. To avoid
interactions between adjacent tiebacks, we recommend that a clear spacing of at least 5
feet be maintained along the anchor zones.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 9 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 KJeinfelder
Estimated Tieback Adhesion: If properly grouted, we tentatively estimate that allowable
concrete/soil adhesion values listed in the table below (and shown on Figure 3) for the
various site soil layers may be used for the anchor portion of a tieback. These
allowable adhesion values incorporate a safety factor of 1.1 and 1.5 for the temporary
and permanent conditions, respectively. It should be noted, however, that the actual
design values,will depend on the installation method and should be confirmed by load -
testing all tiebacks in the field.

Tieback Load Testing: We recommend that all tiebacks be -subjected to a
comprehensive testing program that will verify the integrity of individual tiebacks and
provide information regarding their long-term creep characteristics. Two separate types
of tests are appropriate for temporary tiebacks: 200-percent performance tests on. a
limited number�of tiebacks (within each different soil unit), and 133-percent proof tests
on each remaining tieback anchor. For permanent tiebacks, we also recommend that
300-percent verification tests be performed. Kleinfelder can supply details for
conducting these tests, upon request.
Wall Deflection and Settlement Monitoring: We recommend that the top -of -wall
horizontal deflection and potential vertical settlement of the ground surface behind the
wall be monitored by means of standard surveying techniques, in order to assess the
performance of the shoring wall during construction. Settlement monitoring should
include establishing settlement bench marks on the existing ground surface behind the
wall. Top -of -wall horizontal deflections should be monitored along the wall at both ends,
at the mid -point, and every 20 feet in between. These. survey points should be
monitored immediately after soldier pile installation, regularly during excavation, and on
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 10 of 13 November 21, 2007
copyright 2007 KJeinfelder
a weekly basis following complete excavation. We recommend that Kleinfelder be
allowed to review this survey monitoring data as soon as it becomes available.
Construction Monitoring: Because shoring walls require specialized installation and
earthwork techniques to maintain stable conditions during and after construction, we
strongly recommend that an Kleinfelder representative be retained to continuously
monitor the installation of all soldier piles, wood lagging, and tiebacks. This monitoring
would include observation and documentation of installation procedures, construction
materials, drilling conditions, soil conditions, pile plumbness, as well as tieback load
testing and confirmation of lock -off loads.

232nd Street SW & Edmonds Way (SR 104)
Edmonds, Washington 98122
Dear Mr. Abbott:
Kleinfelder, Inc. (Kleinfelder) is pleased to present.this letter summarizing our limited
geotechnical engineering review for the construction excavation and shoring
requirements at the subject site. Kleinfelder previously provided general geotechnical
design recommendations for this project in our Geotechnical Investigation Report (Job
No. 71716, dated July 7, 2006). The conclusions and recommendations of this
supplementary engineering evaluation should only, be used in conjunction with our
original geotechnical evaluation for the project. The scope of work for this
supplementary evaluation included a site reconnaissance visit and subsequent
supplementary engineering analyses. Authorization to proceed was given by Mr. James
Abbott of Valhalla, LLC (Valhalla) on October 10, 2007.
SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located at the southwest corner of Edmonds Way and 232nd Street
SW in Edmonds, Washington, as shown in Figure 1, and consists of Parcels A through
F, as shown in Figure 2. In general, the site is relatively level and accessible from
Edmonds Way, sloping gradually from about elevation 200 feet at the southeast end to
a low of about elevation 186 feet at the northwest end. However, the western perimeter
of the project site runs along an east facing steep slope area. The western p I roperty line
zig-zags across the slope face, following a north -south property alignment, with surface
elevations ranging from about 196 near the toe to 216 feet near the upper end of the
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page I of 13 November 21, 2007

'i
steep slopes. The previous structures at the site have been demolished, leaving a few
relic retaining walls against the hill side along the northwest portion of the site. The
vegetation encountered on -site consisted of grass, brush, and trees. The general
layout of the project site is shown on the attached Figure 2A.
We understand that a mixed use retail building with below grade parking is planned in
the south end of the site, while a series of town homes are planned within the northern
portion of the site. The mixed use building is to be constructed up against the west
property line. The construction excavations required for this structure will require
temporary cut sloping or cantilever/tieback soldier pile shoring walls, or a combination
thereof. Temporary sloping or tieback shoring wall systems will require a temporary
easement from the neighboring properties to be feasible. It should be noted that two
adjacent structures (a small building and garage) are located very near the property
lines west of the planned mixed. use building in the south end, of the site. Given the
close proximity.of these structures, their age and susceptibility to; settlement induced
cracking, we recommend that a shoring wall be used to provide construction excavation
support in lieu of temporary sloping, to reduce potential settlement risks. The town
homes in the northern portion of the site will be setback from the property lines, with a
planned level access drive area between the structures and the slopes to the west.
EXPLORATORY METHODS
The surface and subsurface conditions at the project site were explored on a previous
site visit for our original geotechnical evaluation, and during a recent site
reconnaissance, visit on October 25 and 29, 2007. The previous subsurface exploration
consisted of excavating 10 test pits to a maximum depth of approximately 12-feet below
the existing ground surface (bgs) at the approximate locations shown in Figure 2A. Our
current supplementary study included a recent site reconnaissance visit and additional
borings advanced along the proposed temporary shoring wall location along the steep
slopes on the. western property boundary. Along with boring logs for these current
explorations, we have also included copies of the exploration logs for the previous test
pits with this letter, for convenience. The following paragraphs describe the procedures
associated with the field explorations and field tests that were conducted for this
supplementary investigation.
Auger Boring Procedures
The exploratory borings were advanced with a hollow -stem auger on October 25 and
29, 2007, using a limited access, track -mounted drill rig and portable acker drill rig
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 2 of 13 November 21, 2007

11
operated by an independent drilling firm working under subcontract to Kleinfelder. A
geotechnical engineer from our firm continuously observed the borings, logged the
subsurface conditions, and collected representative soil samples. All samples were
stored in sealed plastic jars and later transported to our laboratory for further visual
examination and testing. After each boring was completed, the borehole was backfilled
with a mixture of bentonite chips and soil cuttings.
Throughout the drilling operation, soil samples were obtained at 21/2- or 5-foot depth
intervals by means of the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) per ASTUD-1586. This
testing and sampling procedure consists of driving a standard 2-inch outside diameter
steel split-spbon sampler 18 inches into the soil with a 140-pound hammer free -falling
30 inches. The, number of blows required to deive the sampler through each 6-inch
interval is counted, and the total number of blows struck during the final 12 inches is
recorded as the Standard Penetration Resistance, or "SPT blow count.." If a total of 50
blows are struck within any 6-inch interval, the driving is stopped and the blow count is
recorded as 50 blows for the actual penetration distance. The resulting Standard
Penetration Resistance values indicate the relative density of granular soils and the
relative consistency of cohesive soils.
The boring logs attached to this letter describe the vertical sequence of soils and
materials encountered in each boring, based primarily on our field classifications and
supported by our subsequent laboratory examination and testing. Where a soil contact
was observed to be gradational, our logs indicate the average contact depth. Where a
soil type changed between sample intervals, we inferred the contact depth. Our logs
also graphically indicate the blow count, sample type, sample nu m*ber, and approximate
depth of each soil sample obtained from the borings, as well as any laboratory tests
performed on these soil samples. If any groundwater was encountered in a borehole,
the approximate groundwater depth is depicted on the boring log. Groundwater depth
estimates are typically based on the moisture content of soil samples, the wetted height
on the drilling rods, and the water level measured in the borehole after,the auger has
been extracted.
Laboratory Testing
As a part of our geotechnical evaluation, we performed a series of Grain Size Analyses,
and Moisture Content Determinations. The results of these laboratory tests ate
presented in the enclosed laboratory test reports and on the exploration logs. A general
grain size analysis indicates the range of soil particle diameters included in a particular
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 3 of 13 November 21, 2007
copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
sample, while a 200 wash indicates how much fines (silt and clay sized particles) that is
contained in a sample. These grain size laboratory tests were performed in general
accordance with ASTM:D-422 and ASTM:C-1 17. Moisture content determinations were
completed in general accordance with ASTM:D-2216. The results of these laboratory
tests were used to develop the soil classifications shown on the exploration logs and
determine whether specific on -site soils will be suitable for re -use as structural fill.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Based on our previous site investigations, the site -soils were. generally disclosed in our
test pit explorations to consist of medium dense sand and gravel with trace amounts of
silt (Recessional Outwash), overlying dense to very dense, -silty sand with varying
amounts of gravel (Glacial Till) on the slope,areas, and very dense sand with varying
amounts of gravel and silt (Advance Outwash) within the low-lying areas of the site. No
groundwater was revealed n our previous 'explorations. Throughout the year,
groundwater levels would likely fluctuate in response to changing precipitation patterns,
off -site construction activitie s, and changes in site utilization. The deeper borings
advanced as a part of our current supplementary study.generally confirmed these
subsurface conditions. It should be noted that our exploration along 232nd Street also
confirmed the presence of very dense Glacial Till soils in this area of the site, where
temporary sloping of excavation cuts are planned.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on our findings and the results of our supplemental analyses, the project is
considered feasible from a geotechnical standpoint, provided that the recommendations
of this. supplementary letter are implemented. For the planned cuts within the
southwestern- portion of the site (west side of mixed use building),. we anticipate that
temporary sloping � may be used, provided that easements can be obtained and the
sections adjacent to the existing neighboring structures are supported by a soldier pile
.and lagging shoring wall system, to limit the risk of undermining the adjacent structures.
We anticipate that soldier pile and lagging shoring walls will be required to shore the
vertical cuts (up to about 18 feet high) adjacent to the existing neighboring structures
west of the planned mixed use building. The following text sections of this report
present our specific geotechnical conclusions and recommendations concerning
temporary shoring walls, spread footings, permanent walls, and drainage systems.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 4 of 13 November 21, 2007

I
Temporary Excavation Slope Cuts
Temporary excavations should be performed in accordance with current federal, state
and/or local regulations. Temporary excavations in excess of 4 feet vertical height must
be sloped or supported in accordance with Part N of Washington Administrative Code
(WAC) 296-155. For planning purposes, recommend the following maximum cut slope
inclinations, based on 'the soil layers encountered within our explorations and the
corresponding OSHA Soil Type classifications:
Maximum
Soil Type Inclination
Medium Dense to Dense Sand with Gravel (Type B Soils) 1H:1V
Dense. to Very Dense Glacial Till (Type A Soils) %H:1V
It should be noted that appropriate inclinations will ultimately depend on the actual soil
and groundwater seepage conditions exposed in the cuts at the time of construction. it
is the sole responsibility of the contractor to ensure that the excavation is properly
sloped or braced for worker protection. Furthermore, it should be noted that the cut
slope inclination of any overlying soil layer should not be steeper than the underlying
soil.layer, according to OSHA guidelines. In addition to proper sloping, the excavation
cuts should be draped with plastic sheeting for the duration of the excavation to
minimize surface erosion and raveling. Excavations made below the water table will
likely require dewatering and/or shoring.
Temporary Shoring Walls
Temporary shoring walls up to roughly 18-feet high will be- required to support the
planned perimeter cuts along the sloping ground areas along the western property. In
our opinion, a conventional, cantilever or tieback soldier pile and lagging wall would be
well -suited for this purpose. A cantilever, soldier pile shoring wall typically consists of
wood lagging placed between soldier piles installed in pre-augered holes backfilled with
lean mix or structural concrete to a typical depth below the excavation base of about 1.5
times the wall height above grade. The practical and economical vertical height limit for
a cantilevered (unsupported by soil anchors) soldier pile wall is typically on the order of
15 feet. Where the wall'exceeds this practical cantilever height limit, soil tieback
anchors are typically installed through the soldier piles to provide the necessary lateral
support and limit lateral deflections of the wall system; such tiebacks may be installed in
a single row or in a multiple row configuration. A slightly different lateral soil pressure
analysis is required for each of these different wall configurations, as outlined
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 5 of 13 November 21, 2007

'i
subsequently. It should be noted that special design considerations will be required to
limit wall deflection and potential ground settlement where the existing adjacent
buildings are located directly on or close to the planned basement cuts. To minimize
the risk of building damage, we recommend that these portions of the shoring wall be
designed for the horizontal surcharge resulting from such nearby footing loads, or that
the existing footing elements on these buildings be directly underpinned by the soldier
pile wall system. The following recommendations are provided for design of soldier pile
and lagging shoring walls.
Pile Embedment: All soldier piles should have sufficient embedment below the final
excavation level to provide adequate "kick -out" resistance to horizontal loads. We
recommend a minimum embedment of 10 feet below the excavation base. However,
deeper embedment might be needed to develop adequate vertical capacity or passive
resistance at specific locations, based on a structural analysis.
Drilling Conditions: Based on our explorations, we predict that the soldier pile and grout
tieback holes will encounter dense to very dense silty gravelly sand (glacial till) or dense
to very dense sand with gravel/silt (Advance Outwash). Loose to medium dense
overburden soils can likely be drilled without difficulties, using a conventional auger,
whereas the underlying very dense glacial till or advance outwash soils may yield
slower drilling rates. Although none of our explorations encountered cobbles or
boulders, it should be realized that such obstructions can exist at random locations
within the native deposits. Rubble could also be present within the upper fill soils.
Applied Loads: Soldier piles should be designed to resist various applied loads, which
can be classified as static pressures, surcharge pressures, seismic pressures, and
hydrostatic pressures. Our recommended design pressures are presented graphically
on the enclosed Cantilever and Tieback Shoring Wag Diagrams (Figure 3) and are
discussed in the following paragraphs.
Static Pressures: For tieback shoring walls having two or more rows of tiebacks,
we generally recommend using an apparent lateral earth pressure with a
trapezoidal distribution, as shown on Figure 3. Based on the site soils, we
recommend using a peak earth pressure of 25H pounds per square foot (pso,
where H is equal to the height of excavation in feet, for the uniform portion of this
trapezoidal distribution. This static earth pressure should be applied over the
soldier pile spacing width from the top of the pile downward to the base of
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 6 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 1(leinfelder
excavation. Below this level, an active earth pressure of 35 pounds per cubic
foot (pcf), modeled as a fluid unit weight, should be applied over the diameter of
the pile only, as shown on Figure 3. Cantilever soldier pile shoring 'walls (without
tiebacks) are designed for the triangular active earth pressure diagram both
above and below the base of excavation level, in lieu of apparent lateral earth
pressures, as noted on Figure 3.
Surcharge Pressures: Lateral earth pressures acting on the soldier piles should
be increased to account for any surcharge loadings from traffic, construction
equipment, material stockpiles, or structures that are located within a horizontal
distance equal to the wall height. For simplicity, a traffic surcharge can be
modeled as a uniform lateral pressure of 75 psf acting over the upper 6 feet of
wall, as shown on Figure 3.
Seismic Pressures: Temporary shoring walls need not be designed for seismic
loads, given the relatively short duration of construction excavation and the
additional load capacity "built into" the static safety factor for the wall. However, if
the shoring wall. is designed in combination with a� permanent wall, we
recommend that the lateral earth pressures be increased to account for seismic
loads. These seismic pressures act over the entire back of the wall and vary with
the backslope inclination, the seismic acceleration, and the wall height. For
permanent walls designed for yielding conditions (allowing a wall rotation of
0.001 to 0.002 times the wall height), we recommend using a uniform horizontal
seismic loading of 4H psf, based on the active state lateral earth pressure.
Conversely, a non -yielding (restrained) permanent wall should be designed to
withstand a uniform horizontal seismic loading of 12H psf, based on the at -rest
state lateral earth pressure. The recommended seismic surcharge pressure
distribution is presented graphically on Figure 3.
Hydrostatic Pressures: If groundwater is allowed to saturate the soils behind the
below -grade perimeter walls, hydrostatic pressures will act against the walls. At
this site, however, we are assuming that the shoring walls will be provided with a
geocomposite drainage mat system and that an under -slab drainage system will
be installed to provide a permanent dewatering system for the structure. We
therefore do not expect that hydrostatic pressures will d evelop.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 7 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
Resistina Forces: Lateral resistance can be computed by using an appropriate
allowable passive earth pressure acting over the embedded portion of each soldier pile,
neglecting the upper 2 feet. The trapezoidal distribution of this allowable passive
pressure can be modeled as shown on Figure 3. This passive pressure should be
applied over a lateral distance equal to the pile spacing or twice the pile diameter,
whichever is less. For a -level excavation base, we recommend using an allowable
passive earth pressure of 375 pcf for the very dense advance outwash sand with gravel,
modeled as a fluid unit weight, -in the static design case; in the seismic case we
recommend using an allowable passive fluid pressure of 500 pcf, as shown on Figure 3.
These allowable passive earth pressures, incorporate a safety factor of 1.5 and 1.1 for
the static and seismic case, respectively.
Pile CaDacities and Deflections: Appropriate side -friction and end -bearing capacities
can be used to determine total vertical capacities of the soldier piles that may be
required to resist underpinning loads or the vertical component of the tieback loads. To
estimate lateral deflections of the soldier piles, we recommend using appropriate
subgrade reaction muduli. For the embedded portion of a soldier pile bearing within the
native, very dense. glacial till soils or advance outwash sands, our recommended
allowable design values are shown on the enclosed Figure 3 and are summarized
below. The allowable values for side friction and end bearing. incorporate safety factors
of 1.5 and 2.0 for temporary and permanent conditions, respectively.

Our recommendations regarding lagging'design and installation are presented below.
Wood Laaging Materials: Wood lagging is typically installed in between all soldier piles
to reduce the potential for soil failure, loss of ground, and hazardous working conditions.
In our opinion, either conventional wooden timbers or reinforced shotcrete could be
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 8 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
utilized as lagging at the site. For permanent applications, we recommend that all
wooden timber lagging be pressure -treated.
Lateral Pressures on Wood Lagging: Due to soil arching effects, temporary lagging that
spans 8 feet or less need be designed for only 25 percent of the lateral earth pressure
previously recommended for soldier pile design. Permanent lagging, on the other hand,
should be designed for 50 percent of this same lateral earth pressure.
Wood Lagging Backfill: We recommend that any voids greater than 1-inch behind the
lagging be backfilled, but the backfill material should not be allowed to prevent
groundwater flow. If inadequate drainage is provided behind the lagging, hydrostatic
pressure will develop on the wall. Pea gravel would provide an effective lagging backfill
material to promote adequate drainage, whereas concrete, cdf, or other impermeable
materials are not recommended. The void spaces should be backfilled progressively as
the excavation proceeds.
Tieback Conflicts and Easements: Because tiebacks typically extend about 30 to 60 feet
behind the excavation face, conflicts with underground utilities, as well as with adjacent
structures and foundations, often arise. The project structural engineer should carefully
consider the locations of such obstructions when laying out all tiebacks. Easements
might be required for any tiebacks that extend onto peivate properties and right-of-way
areas beyond the site property boundaries. It should also be realized that the City of
Seattle does not typically allow permanent tiebacks to encroach on their roadway right-
of-way limits.
Tieback No -Load Zone: The anchor portion of all tiebacks must be located a sufficient
distance behind the retained excavation face to develop resistance within a stable soil
mass. We recommend that the anchorage be obtained behind a "no-load zone" defined
by a plane projected upward at a 60-degree angle from the base of the excavation and
set back from the excavation face a horizontal distance equal to 25 percent of the face
height, as shown on Figure 3.
Tieback Anchor Len-qth and Soacing: The anchor portion of.the tieback (that portion
behind the no-load zone) should have a minimum length of 10 feet and should be
located at least 10 feet below the ground su ' rface, as shown on Figure 3. To avoid
interactions between adjacent tiebacks, we recommend that a clear spacing of at least 5
feet be maintained along the anchor zones.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 9 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Klelnfelder
Estimated Tieback Adhesion: If properly grouted, we tentatively estimate that allowable
concrete/soil adhesion values listed in the table below (and shown on Figure 3) for the
various site soil layers may be used for the anchor portion of a tieback. These
allowable adhesion values incorporate a safety factor of 1.1 and 1.5 for the temporary
and permanent conditions, respectively. It should be noted, however, that the actual
design values will depend on the installation method and should be confirmed by load -
testing all tiebacks in the field.

Tieback Load Testin-g: We recommend that all tiebacks be subjected to a
comprehensive testing program that will verify the integrity of individual tiebacks and
provide information regarding their long-term creep characteristics. Two separate types
of tests are appropriate for temporary tiebacks: .200-percent perforrnance tests on a
limited number of tiebacks (within each different soil unit), and 133-percent proof tests
on each remaining tieback anchor. For permanent tiebacks, we also recommend that
300-percent verification tests be performed. Kleinfelder can supply details for
conducting these tests, upon request.
Wall Deflection and Settlement Monitoring: We recommend that the top-of-waill
horizontal deflection and potential vertical settlement of the ground surface behind the
wall be monitored by means of standard surveying techniques, in order to. assess the
performance of the shoring wall during construction. Settlement monitoring should
include establishing settlement bench marks on the existing ground surface behind the
wall. Top -of -wall horizontal deflections should be monitored along the wall at both ends,
at the mid -point, and every 20 fe et in between. These survey points should be
monitored immediately after soldier pile installation, regularly during excavation, and on
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 10 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 KJeinfelder
a weekly basis following complete excavation. We recommend that Kleinfelder be
allowed to review this survey monitoring data as soon as it becomes available.
Construction Monitoring: Because shoring walls require specialized installation and
earthwork techniques to maintain stable conditions during and after construction, we
strongly recommend that an Kleinfelder representative be retained to continuously
monitor the installation of all soldier piles, wood lagging, and tiebacks. This monitoring
would include observation and documentation of installation procedures, construction
materials, drilling conditions, soil conditions, pile plumbness, as well as tieback load
testing and confirmation of lock -off loads.

Edmonds, Washington 98122
Dear Mr. Abbott:
Kleinfelder, Inc. (Kleinfelder) is pleased to present this letter summarizing our limited
geotechnical engineering review for the construction excavation and shoring
requirements at the subject site. Kleinfelder previously provided general geotechnical
design recommendations for this project in our Geotechnical Investigation Report (Job
No. 71716, dated July 7, 2006). The conclusions and recommendations of this
supplementary engineering evaluation should only be used in conjunction with our
original geotechnical evaluation for the project. The scope of work for this
supplementary evaluation included a site reconnaissance visit and subsequent
supplementary engineering analyses. Authorization to proceed was given by Mr. James
Abbott of Valhalla, LLC (Valhalla) on October 10, 2007.
SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located at the southwest corner of Edmonds Way and 232 Id Street
SW in Edmonds, Washington, as shown in Figure 1, and consists of Parcels A through
F, as shown in Figure 2. In general, the site is relatively level and accessible from
Edmonds Way, sloping gradually from about elevation 200 feet at the southeast end to
a low of about elevation 186 feet at the northwest end. However, the western perimeter
of the project site runs along an east facing steep slope area. The western property line
zig-zags across the slope face, following a north -south property alignment, with surface
elevations ranging from about 196 near the toe to 216 feet near the upper end of the
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 1 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
steep slopes. The previous structures at the site have been demolished, leaving a few
relic retaining walls. against the hill side along the- northwest portion of the site. The
vegetation encountered on -site consisted of grass, brush, and trees. The general
layout of the project site is shown on the attached Figure 2A.
We understand that a mixed use retail �building with below grade parking is planned in
the south end of the site, while a series of town homes are planned within the northern
portion of the site. The mixed use building is to be constructed up against the west
property line. The construction excavations- required for this structure will require
temporary cut sloping or cantilever/tieback soldier pile shoring walls, or a combination
thereof. Temporary sloping or tieback shoring wall systems will require a temporary
easement from the neighboring properties to be feasible. It should be noted that two
adjacent structures (a small building and garage) are located very near the property
lines west of the planned mixed use building in the south end of the site.. Given the
close proximity of these structures, their age and susceptibility to settlement induced
cracking, we recommend that a shoring wall be used to provide construction excavation
support in -lieu of temporary sloping, to reduce potential settlement risks. The,town
homes in the northern portion of the site will be setback from the property lines, with a
planned level access drive area between the structures and the slopes to the west.
EXPLORATORY METHODS
The surface and subsurface conditions at the project site were explored on a previous
site visit for our original geotechnical evaluation, and: during a recent site
reconnaissance visit on October 25 and 29, 2007. The previous subsurface exploration
consisted of excavating 10 test pits to a maximum depth of approximately 12-feet below
the existing ground surface (bgs) at the approximate locations shown in Figure 2A. Our
current supplementary study included a recent site reconnaissance visit and additional
bdrings advanced along the proposed temporary shoring wall location along the steep
slopes on the. western property boundary. Along with boring logs for these current
explorations, we have also included copies- of the exploration logs for the previous test
pits with this letter, for convenience. The following paragraphs describe the procedures
associated -with the field explorations and field tests that were conducted for this
supplementary investigation.
Auger -Boring Procedures
The exploratory borings were advanced with a hollow -stem auger on October 25 and
29, 2007, using a limited access, track -mounted drill rig -and portable acker drill rig
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 2 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
operated by an independent drilling firm working under subcontract to Kleinfelder. A
geotechnical engineer from our firm continuously observed the borings, logged the
subsurface conditions, and collected representative soil samples. All samples were
stored in sealed plastic jars and later transported to our laboratory for further visual
examination and testing. After each boring was completed, the borehole was backfilled
with a mixture of bentonite chips and soil cuttings.
Throughout the drilling operation, soil samples were obtained at 2Y2- or 5-foot depth
intervals by means of the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) per ASTUD-1586. This
testing and sampling procedure consists of driving a standard 2-inch outside diameter
steel split -spoon sampler 18 inches into the soil with a 140-pound hammer free -falling
30 inches. The number of blows required to drive the sampler through each 6-inch
interval is counted, and the total number of blows struck during the final 12 inches is
recorded as the Standard Penetration Resistance, or "SPT blow count." If a total of 50
blows are struck within any 6-inch interval, the driving is stopped and the blow count is
recorded as 50 blows for the actual penetration distance. The resulting Standard
Penetration Resistance values indicate the relative density of granular soils and the
relative consistency of cohesive soils.
The boring logs attached to this letter describe the vertical sequence of soils and
materials encountered in each boring, based primarily on our field classifications and
supported by our subsequent laboratory examination and testing. Where a soil contact
was observed to be gradational, our logs indicate the average contact depth. Where a
soil type changed between sample intervals, we inferred the contact depth. Our logs
also graphically indicate the blow count, sample type, sample number, and approximate
depth of each soil sample obtained from the borings, as well as any laboratory tests
performed on these soil samples. If any groundwater was encountered in a borehole,
the approximate groundwater depth is depicted on the boring log. Groundwater depth
estimates are typically based on the moisture content of soil samples, the wetted height
on the drilling rods, and the water level measured in the borehole after the auger has
been extracted.
Laboratory Testing
As a part of our geotechnical evaluation, we performed a series of Grain Size Analyses,
and Moisture Content Determinations. The results of these laboratory tests are
presented in the enclosed laboratory test reports and on the exploration logs. A general
grain size analysis indicates the range of soil particle diameters included in a particular
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 3 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
sample, while a 200 wash indicates how much fines (silt -and clay sized particles) that is
contained in a sample. These grain size -laboratory tests were performed in general
accordance with ASTM:D-422 and ASTM:C-1 17. Moisture content determinations were
completed in general accordance with ASTM:D�2216. The results of these laboratory
tests were used to develop the soil classifications shown on the exploration logs and
determine whether specific on -site soils will be suitable for re -use as structural fill.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Based on our previous site investigations, the site soils were generally disclosed in our
test pit explorations to consist of medium dense sand and gravel with trace amounts of
silt (Recessional Outwash), overlying dense to very dense, silty sand with varying
amounts of gravel (Glacial Till).on the slope areas, and very dense sand with varying
amounts of -gravel and silt (Advance Outwash) within the low-lying areas of the site. No
groundwater was revealed n our previous explorations. Throughout the year,
groundwater levels Would likely fluctuate in response to changing precipitation patterns,
off -site construction activities, and changes in site utilization. The deeper borings
advanced as a part of our current supplementary study generally confirmed these
subsurface conditions. It should be noted that our exploration along 232nd Street also
confirmed the presence of very dense Glacial Till soils in this area of the site, where
temporary sloping of excavation cuts are planned.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on our findings and the results of our supplemental analyses, the project is
considered feasible from a geotechnical standpoint, provided that the recommendations
of this supplementary letter are implemented. For the planned cuts within the
southwestern portion of the site (west side of mixed use building), we anticipate that
temporary sloping may be used, provided that easements can be obtained and the
sections adjacent to the existing neighboring structures are supported by a soldier pile
and lagging shoring wall system, to limit the risk of undermining the adjacent structures.
We anticipate that soldier pile and lagging shoring walls will be required to shore the
vertical cuts (up to about 18 feet high) adjacent to the existing neighboring structures
west of the planned mixed use building. The following text sections of this report
present our specific geotechnical conclusions and recommendations concerning
temporary shoring walls, spread footings, permanent walls, and drainage systems.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 4 of 13 November 21, 2007

Y
Temporary Excavation Slope Cuts
Temporary excavations should be performed in accordance with current federal, state
and/or local regulations. Temporary excavations in excess of 4 feet vertical height must
be sloped or supported in accordance with Part N of Washington Administrative Code
(WAC) 296-155. For planning purposes, recommend the following maximum cut slope
inclinations, based on the soil layers encountered within our explorations and the
corresponding OSHA Soil Type classifications:
Maximum
Soil Type Inclination
Medium Dense to Dense Sand with Gravel (Type B Soils) 1H:1V
Dense to Very Dense Glacial Till (Type A Soils) %H:1V
It should be noted that appropriate inclinations will ultimately depend on the actual soil
and groundwater seepage conditions exposed in the cuts at the time of construction. It
is the sole responsibility of the contractor to ensure that the excavation is properly
sloped or braced for worker protection. Furthermore, it should be noted that the cut
slope inclination of any overlying soil layer should not be steeper than the underlying
soil layer, according to OSHA guidelines. In addition to proper sloping, the excavation
cuts should be draped with plastic sheeting for the duration of the excavation to
minimize surface erosion and raveling. Excavations made below the water table will
likely require dewatering and/or shoring.
Temporary Shoring Walls
Temporary shoring walls up to roughly 18-feet high will be required to support the
planned perimeter cuts along the sloping ground areas along the western property. In
our opinion, a conventional, cantilever or tieback soldier pile and lagging wall would be
well -suited for this purpose. A cantilever, soldier pile shoring wall typically consists of
wood lagging placed between soldier piles installed in pre-augered holes backfilled with
lean mix or structural concrete to a typical depth below the excavation base of about 1.5
times the wall height above grade. The practical and economical vertical height limit for
a cantilevered (unsupported by soil anchors) soldier pile wall is typically on the -order of
15 feet. Where the wall exceeds this practical cantilever height limit, soil tieback
anchors are typically installed through the soldier piles to provide the necessary lateral
support and limit lateral deflections of the wall system; such tiebacks may be installed in
a single row or in a multiple row configuration. A slightly different lateral soil pressure
analysis is required for each of these different wall configurations, as outlined
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 5 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
subsequently. It should be noted that special design considerations will be required to
limit wall deflection and potential ground settlement where the existing adjacent
buildings are located directly on or close to the planned- basement cuts. To minimize
the risk of building damage, we recommend that these portions of the shoring wall be
designed for the horizontal surcharge resulting from such nearby footing loads, or that
the existing footing elements on these buildings be directly underpinned by the soldier
pile wall system. The following recommendations are provided for design of soldier pile
and lagging shoring walls.
Pile Embedment: All soldier piles should have sufficient embedment below the final
excavation level to provide adequate "kick -out" resistance to horizontal loads. We
recommend a minimum embedment of 10 feet below the excavation base. However,
deeper embedment might be needed to develop adequate vertical capacity or passive
resistance at specific locations, based on a structural analysis.
Drilling Conditions: Based on our explorations, we predict that the soldier. pile and grout
tieback holes will encounter dense to very dense silty -gravelly sand (glacial till) or dense
to very dense sand with gravel/silt (Advance Outwash). Loose to medium dense
overburden -soils can likely be drilled without difficulties, using a conventional auger,
whereas the underlying very dense glacial till or advance outwash soils may yield
slower drilling rates. Although none of our explorations encountered cobbles or
boulders,. it should be realized that such obstructions can exist at random locations
within the native deposits. Rubble, could also be present within the upper fill soils.
Applied Loads: Soldier piles should be designed to resist various applied loads, which
can be classified. as static pressures, surcharge press.ures, seismic pressures, and
hydrostatic pressures. Our recommended design pressures are presented graphically
on the enclosed Cantilever and Tieback Shoring Wall Diagrams (Figure 3) and are
discussed in the following paragraphs.
Static Pressures: For tieback shoring walls having two or more rows of tiebacks,
we generally recommend using an apparent lateral earth pressure with a
trapezoidal distribution, as shown on Figure 3. Based on.the site soils, we
recommend using a peak earth pressure of 25H pounds per square foot (psf),
where H is equal to the height of excavation in feet, for the uniform portion of this
trapezoidal distribution. This static earth pressure should be applied over the
soldier pile spacing width from� the top of the pile downward to the base of
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 6 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
a
excavation. Below this level, an active earth pressure of 35 pounds per cubic
foot (pcf), modeled as a fluid unit weight, should be applied over the diameter of
the pile only, as shown on Figure 3. Cantilever soldier pile shoring walls (without
tiebacks) are designed for the triangular active earth pressure diagram both
above and below the base of excavation level, in lieu of apparent lateral earth
pressures, as noted on Figure 3.
Surcharge Pressures: Lateral earth pressures acting on the soldier piles should
be increased to account for any surcharge loadings from traffic, construction
equipment, material stockpiles, or structures that are located within a horizontal
distance equal to the wall height. For simplicity, a traffic surcharge can be
modeled as a uniform lateral pressure of 75 psf acting over the upper 6 feet of
wall, as shown on Figure 3.
Seismic Pressures: Temporary shoring walls need not be designed for seismic
loads, given the relatively sh ort duration of construction excavation and the
additional load capacity "built into" the static safety factor for the wall. However, if
the shoring wall is designed in combination with a permanent wall, we
recommend that the lateral earth pressures be increased to account for seismic
loads. These seismic pressures act over the entire back of the wall and vary with
the backslope inclination, the seismic acceleration, and the wall height. For
permanent walls designed for yielding conditions (allowing a wall rotation of
0.001 to 0.002 times the wall height), we recommend using a uniform horizontal
seismic loading of 4H psf, based on the active state lateral earth pressure.
Conversely, a non -yielding (restrained) permanent wall should be designed to
withstand a uniform horizontal seismic loading of 12H psf, based on the at -rest
state lateral earth pressure. The recommended seismic surcharge pressure
distribution is presented graphically on Figure 3.
Hydrostatic Pressures: If groundwater is allowed to saturate the soils behind the
below -grade perimeter walls, hydrostatic pressures will act against the walls. At
this site, however, we are assuming that the shoring walls will be provided with a
geocomposite drainage mat system and that an under -slab drainage system will
be installed to provide a permanent dewatering system for the structure. We
therefore do not expect that hydrostatic pressures will develop.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 7 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
Resisting Forces: Lateral resistance can be computed by using an appropriate
allowable passive earth pressure acting over the embedded portion of each soldier pile,
neglecting the upper 2 feet. The trapezoidal distribution of this allowable passive
pressure can be modeled as shown on Figure 3. This passive pressure should be
applied over a lateral distance equal to the pile spacing or twice the pile diameter,
whichever is less. For a level excavation base, we recommend using an allowable
passive earth pressure of 375 pcf for the very dense advance outwash sand with gravel,
modeled as a fluid unit weight, in the static design case; in the seismic case we
recommend using an allowable passive fluid pressure of 500 pcf, as shown on Figure 3.
These allowable passive earth pressures incorporate a safety factor of 1.5 and 1.1 for
the static and seismic case, respectively.
Pile Capacities and Deflections: Appropriate side -friction and end -bearing capacities
can be used to determine total vertical capacities of the soldier piles that may be
required to resist underpinning loads or the vertical component of the tieback loads. To
estimate lateral deflections of the soldier piles, we recommend using appropriate
subgrade reaction muduli. For the embedded portion of a soldier pile bearing within the
native, very dense glacial till soils or advance outwash sands, our recommended
allowable design,values are shown on the enclosed Figure 3 and are summarized
below. The allowable values for side friction and end bearing incorporate safety factors
of 1.5 and 2.0 for temporary and permanent conditions, respectively.
Allowable Design Values
Temporary Permanent
Design Parameter Case Case
Side Friction Capacity (very dense sands) 1,500 psf 1,200 psf
End Bearing Capacity (very dense sands) 20 ksf 15 ksf
Our recommendations regarding lagging design and installation are presented below.
Wood Lagging Materials: Wood lagging is typically installed in between all soldier piles
to reduce the potential for soil failure, loss of ground, and hazardous working conditions.
In our opinion, either conventional wooden timbers or reinforced shotcrete could be
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 8 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
utilized as lagging at the site. For permanent applications, we recommend that all
wooden timber lagging be press u re -treated.
Lateral Pressures on Wood Lagging: Due to soil arching effects, temporary lagging that
spans 8 feet or less need be designed for only 25 percent of the lateral earth pressure
previously recommended for soldier pile design. Permanent lagging, on the other hand,
should be designed for 50 percent of this same lateral earth pressure.
Wood Lawing Backfill: We recommend that any voids greater than 1-inch behind the
lagging be backfilled, but the backfill material. should not be allowed to prevent
groundwater flow. If inadequate drainage is provided behind the lagging, hydrostatic
pressure will develop on the wall. Pea gravel would provide an effective lagging backfill
material to promote adequate drainage, whereas concrete, cdf, or other impermeable
materials are not recommended. The void spaces should be backfilled progressively as
the excavation proceeds.
Tieback Conflicts and Easements: Because tiebacks typically extend about 30 to 60 feet
behind the excavation face, conflicts with underground utilities, as well as with adjacent
structures and foundations, often arise. The project structural engineer should carefully
consider the locations of such obstructions when laying out all tiebacks. Easements
might be required for any tiebacks that extend onto private properties and right-of-way
areas beyond the site property boundaries. It should also be realized that the City of
Seattle does not typically allow permanent tiebacks to encroach on their roadway right-
of-way limits.
Tieback No -Load Zone: The anchor portion of all tiebacks must be located a sufficient
distance behind the retained excavation face to develop resistance within a stable soil
mass. We recommend that the anchorage be obtained behind a "no-load zone" defined
by a plane projected upward at a 60-degree angle from the base of the excavation and
set back from the excavation face a horizontal distance equal to 25 percent of the face
height, as shown on Figure 3.
Tieback Anchor Length and Spacing: The anchor portion of the tieback (that portion
behind the no-load zone) should have a minimum length of 10 feet and should be
located at least 10 feet below the ground surface, as shown on Figure 3. To avoid
interactions between adjacent tiebacks, we recommend that a clear spacing of at least 5
feet be maintained along the anchor zones.

Estimated Tieback Adhesion: If properly grouted, we tentatively estimate that allowable
concrete/soil adhesion values listed in the table below (and shown on Figure 3) for the
various site soil layers may be used for - the anchor portion of a tieback. These
allowable adhesion values incorporate a safety factor of 1.1 and 1.5 for the temporary
and permanent conditions, respectively. It should be noted, however, that the actual
design values will depend on the installation method and should be confirmed by load -
testing -all tiebacks in the field.

Allowable Tieback Adhesion
Values
Temporary Permanent
Case Case
Dense to Very Dense, Silty Gravelly 1,500 psf 1,200 psf
Sand (Glacial Till) or Sand with gravel
(Advance Outwash)
Tieback Load Testing: We recommend that all tiebacks be subjected to a
comprehensive testing program that will verify the integrity of individual tiebacks and
provide information regarding their long-term creep characteristics. Two separate types
of tests -are appropriate for temporary tiebacks: 200-percent performance tests on a
limited number of tiebacks (within each different soil unit), and 133-percent proof tests
on each remaining tieback anchor. For permanent tiebacks, we also recommend that
300-percent verification tests be performed. Kleinfelder can supply details for
conducting these tests, upon request.
Wall Deflection and Settlement Monitoring: We recommend that the top -of -wall
horizontal deflection and potential vertical settlement of the ground surface behind the
wall be monitored by means of standard surveying techniques, in order to assess the
performance of the shoring wall during construction. Settlement monitoring should
include establishing settlement bench marks on the, existing ground surface behind the
wall. Top -of -wall horizontal deflections should be monitored along the wall at both ends,
at the mid -point, and every 20 feet in between. These survey points should be
monitored immediately after soldier pile installation, regularly during excavation, and on
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 10 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
a weekly basis following complete excavation. We recommend that Kleinfelder be
allowed to review this survey monitoring data as soon as it becomes available.
Construction Monitoring: Because shoring walls require specialized installation and
earthwork techniques to maintain stable conditions during and after construction, we
strongly recommend that an Kleinfelder representative be retained to continuously
monitor the installation of all soldier piles, wood lagging, and tiebacks. This monitoring
would include observation and documentation of installation procedures, construction
materials, drilling conditions, soil conditions, pile plumbness, as well as tieback load
testing and confirmation of lock -off loads.

CLOSURE
The conclusions and recommendations provided in this supplemental letter are based,
in part, on the current project conditions provided to us, our review of available
geotechnical documents . for the project site, our site reconnaissance, and our
interpretations and assumptions regarding subsurface conditions. If variations in
subsurface conditions are discovered during earthwork, we may need to modify this
report. The future performance and integrity of the temporary shoring systems and
building foundations will depend largely on proper initial site preparation, drainage, and
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 12 of 13 November 21, 2007

construction procedures. Monitoring by experienced geotechnical personnel should be
considered an integral part of the construction process. Kleinfelder is available to
provide geotechnical inspection and testing services during the earthwork and
foundation construction phases of the project. If variations in the subgrade conditions
are observed at that time, we would be able to provide additional geotechnical
engineering recommendations, thus minimizing delays as the project develops. We are
also available to review preliminary plans and specifications before construction begins.
We appreciate the opportunity to be of continued service to you. Should you have any

Attention: Mr. James Abbott
Subject: Geotechnical Supplement No. 1: Excavation Shoring Considerations
Edmonds Mixed -Use Development
232 "d Street SW & Edmonds Way (SR 104)
Edmonds, Washington 98122
Dear Mr. Abbott:
Kleinfelder, Inc. (Kleinfelder) is pleased to present this letter summarizing our limited
geotechnical engineering review for the construction excavation and shoring
requirements at the subject site. Kleinfelder previously provided general geotechnical
design recommendations for this project in our Geotechnical Investigation Report (Job
No. 71716, dated July 7, 2006). The conclusions and recommendations of this
supplementary engineering evaluation should only be used in conjunction with our
original geotechnical evaluation for the project. The scope of work for this
supplementary evaluation included a site reconnaissance visit and subsequent
supplementary engineering analyses. Authorization to proceed was given by Mr. James
Abbott of Valhalla, LLC (Valhalla) on October 10, 2007.
SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located at the southwest corner of Edmonds Way and 232nd Street
SW in Edmonds, Washington, as shown in Figure 1, and consists of Parcels A through
F, as shown in Figure 2. In general, the site is relatively level and accessible from
Edmonds Way, sloping gradually from about elevation 200 feet at the southeast end to
a low of about elevation 186 feet at the northwest end. However, the western perimeter
of the project site runs along an east facing steep slope area. The western property line
zig-zags across the slope face, following a north -south property alignment, with surface
elevations ranging from about 196 near the toe to 216 feet near the upper end of the
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 1 of 13 November 21, 2007

steep slopes. The previous structures at the site have been demolished, leaving a few
relic retaining walls against the hill side along the northwest portion of the site. The
vegetation encountered on -site consisted of grass, brush, and trees. The general
layout of the project site is shown on the attached Figure 2A.
We understand that a mixed use retail building with below grade parking is planned in
the south end of the site, while a series of town homes are planned within the northern
portion of the site. The mixed use building is to be constructed up against the west
property line. The construction excavations required for this structure will require
temporary cut sloping or cantilever/tieback soldier pile shoring walls, or a combination
thereof. Temporary sloping or tieback shoring wall systems will require a temporary
easement from the neighboring properties to be feasible. It should be noted that two
adjacent structures (a small building and garage) are located very near the property
lines west of the planned mixed use building in the south end of the site. Given the
close proximity of these structures, their age and susceptibility to settlement induced
cracking, we recommend that a shoring wall be used to provide construction excavation
support in lieu of temporary sloping, to reduce potential settlement risks. The town
homes in the northern portion of the site will be setback from the property lines, with a
planned level access drive area between the. structures and the slopes to the west.
EXPLORATORY METHODS
The surface and subsurface conditions at the project site were explored on a previous
site visit for our original geotechnical evaluation, and during a recent site
reconnaissance visit on October 25 and 29, 2007. The previous subsurface exploration
consisted of excavating 10 test pits to a maximum depth of approximately 12-feet below
the existing ground surface (bgs) at the approximate locations shown in Figure 2A. Our
current supplementary study included a recent site reconnaissance visit and additional
borings advanced along the proposed temporary shoring wall location along the steep
slopes on the western property boundary. Along with boring logs for these current
explorations, we have also included copies of the exploration logs for the previous test
pits with this letter, for convenience. The following paragraphs describe the procedures
associated with the field explorations and field tests that were conducted for this
supplementary investigation.
Auger Boring Procedures
The exploratory borings were advanced with a hollow -stem auger on October 25 and
29, 2007, using a limited access, track -mounted drill rig. and portable acker drill rig
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 2 of 13 November 21, 2007

operated by an independent drilling firm working under subcontract to Kleinfelder. A
geotechnical engineer from our firm continuously observed the borings, logged the
subsurface conditions, and collected representative soil samples. All samples were
stored in sealed plastic jars and later transported to our laboratory for further visual
examination and testing. After each boring was completed, the borehole was backfilled
with a mixture of bentonite chips and soil cuttings.
Throughout the drilling operation, soil samples were obtained at 21/2- or 5-foot depth
intervals by means of the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) per ASTUD-1586. This
testing and sampling procedure consists of driving a standard 2-inch outside diameter
steel split -spoon sampler 18 inches into the soil with a 140-pound hammer free -failing
30 inches. The number of blows required to drive the sampler through each 6-inch
interval is counted, and the total number of blows struck during the final 12 inches is
recorded as the Standard Penetration Resistance, or "SPT blow count." If a total of 50
blows are struck within any 6-inch interval, the driving is stopped and the blow count is'
recorded as 50 blows for the actual penetration distance. The resulting Standard
Penetration Resistance values indicate the relative density of granular soils and the
relative consistency of cohesive soils.
The boring logs attached to this letter describe the vertical sequence of soils and
materials encountered in each boring, based primarily on our field classifications and
supported by our subsequent laboratory examination and testing. Where a soil contact
was observed to be gradational, our logs indicate the average contact depth. Where a
soil type changed between sample intervals, we inferred the contact depth. Our logs
also graphically indicate the blow count, sample type, sample number, and approximate
depth of each soil sample obtained from the borings, as well as any laboratory tests
performed on these soil samples. If any groundwater was encountered in a borehole,
the approximate groundwater depth is depicted on the boring log. Groundwater depth
estimates are typically based on the moisture content of soil samples, the wetted height
on the drilling rods, and the water level measured in the borehole after the auger has
been extracted.
Laboratory Testing
As a part of our geotechnical evaluation, we performed a series of Grain Size Analyses,
and Moisture Content Determinations. The results of these laboratory tests are
presented in the enclosed laboratory test reports and on the exploration logs. A general
grain size analysis indicates the range of soil particle diameters included in a particular
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 3 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
satnple, while a 200 wash indicates how -much fines (silt and clay sized particles) that is
contained in a sample. These grain size laboratory tests were performed in general
accordance with ASTM:13-422 and ASTM:C-1 17. Moisture content determinations were
completed in general accordance with ASTM:D-2216. The results of these laboratory
tests were used to develop the soil classifications shown on the exploration logs and
determine whether specific on -site soils will be suitable for re -use as structural fill.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Based on our previous site investigations, the site soils were generally disclosed in our
test pit explorations to consist of medium dense sand and gravel with trace amounts of
silt (Recessional Outwash), overlying dense to very d ense, silty sand with varying
amounts of gravel (Glacial Till) on the slope areas, and very dense sand with varying
amounts of gravel and silt (Advance Outwash) within the low-lying areas of the site. No
groundwater was revealed n our previous explorations. Throughout the year,
groundwater le vels would likely fluctuate in response to changing precipitation patterns,
off -site construction -activities, and changes in site utilization. The deeper borings
advanced as a part of our current supplementary study generally confirmed these
subsurface. conditions. It should be noted that our exploration along 232 Id Street also
confirmed the presence of very dense Glacial Till soils in this area of the site, where
temporary sloping of excavation cuts are planned.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on our findings and the results of our supplemental analyses, the project is
considered feasible from a geotechnical standpoint, provided that the recommendations
of this supplementary letter are implemented. For the planned cuts within the
southwestern portion of the site (west side of mixed use building), we anticipate that
temporary sloping may be used, provided that easements can be obtained and the
sections adjacent to the existing neighboring structures are supported by a soldier pile
and, lagging shoring wall system, to limit the risk of undermining the adjacent structures.
We anticipate that soldier pile and lagging shoring walls will be required to shore the
vertical cuts (up to about 18 feet high) adjacent to the existing neighboring structures
west of the planned mixed use building. The following text sections of this report
present our specific geotechnical conclusions and recommendations concerning
temporary shoring walls, spread footings, permanent walls, and drainage systems.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 4 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
Temporary Excavation Slope Cuts
Temporary excavations should be performed in accordance with current federal, state
and/or local regulations. Temporary excavations in excess of 4 feet vertical height must
be sloped or supported in accordance with Part N of Washington Administrative Code
(WAC) 296-155. For planning purposes, recommend the following maximum cut slope
inclinations, based on the soil layers encountered within our explorations and the
corresponding OSHA Soil Type classifications:
Soil Type
Maximum
Inclination
Medium Dense to Dense Sand with Gravel (Type B Soils) 1 H:1V
Dense to Very Dense Glacial Till (Type A Soils) %HAV
It should be noted that appropriate inclinations will ultimately depend on the actual soil
and groundwater seepage conditions exposed in the cuts at the time of construction. It
is the sole responsibility of the contractor to ensure that the excavation is properly
sloped or braced for worker protection. Furthermore, it should be noted that the cut
slope inclination of any overlying soil layer should not be steeper than the underlying
soil layer, according to OSHA guidelines. In addition to proper sloping, the excavation
cuts should be draped with plastic sheeting for the duration of the excavation to
minimize surface erosion and raveling. Excavations made below the water table will
likely require dewatering and/or shoring.
Temporary Shoring Walls
Temporary shoring walls up to roughly 18-feet high will be required to support the
planned perimeter cuts along the sloping ground areas along the western property. In
our opinion, a conventional, cantilever or tieback soldier pile and lagging wall would be
well -suited for this purpose. A cantilever, soldier pile shoring wall typically consists of
wood lagging placed between soldier piles installed in pre-augered holes backfilled with
lean mix or structural concrete to a typical depth below the excavation base of about 1.5
times the wall height above grade. The practical and economical vertical height limit for
a cantilevered (unsupported by soil anchors) soldier pile wall is typically on the order of
15 feet. Where the wall exceeds this practical cantilever height limit, soil tieback
anchors are typically installed through the soldier piles to provide the necessary lateral
support and limit lateral deflections of the wall system; such tiebacks may be installed in
a single row or in a multiple row configuration. A slightly different lateral soil pressure
analysis is required for each of these different wall configurations, as outlined
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 5 of 13 November 21, 2007

subsequently. It. should be noted that special design considerations will be required to
limit wall Aeflection and potential ground settlement where the existing adjacent
buildings are located directly on or close to the planned basement cuts. To minimize
the risk of building damage, we recommend that these portions of the shoring wall be
designed for the horizontal surcharge resulting from such nearby footing loads, or that
the existing footing elements on these buildings be directly underpinned by the soldier
pile wall system. The following recommendations are provided for design of soldier pile
and lagging shoring walls.
Pile Embedment: All soldier piles should have sufficient embedment below the final
excavation level to provide adequate "kick -out" resistance to horizontal loads. We
recommend a minimum embedment of 10 feet below the excavation base. However,
deeper embedment might be needed to develop adequate vertical capacity or passive
resistance at specific locations, based on a structural analysis.
Drilling Conditions: Based on our explorations, we predict that the soldier pile and grout
tieback holes will encounter dense to very dense silty gravelly sand (glacial till) or dense
to very dense sand with gravel/silt (Advance Outwash). Loose to medium dense
overburden soils can likely be drilled without difficulties, using a conventional auger,
whereas the underlying very dense glacial till or advance outwash soils may yield
slower drilling rates. Although none of our explorations encountered cobbles or
boulders, it should be realized that such obstructions can exist at random locations
within the native deposits. Rubble could also be present within the upper fill soils.
Applied Loads: Soldier piles should be designed to resist various applied loads, which
can be classified as static pressures, surcharge pressures, seismic pressures, and
hydrostatic pressures. Our recommended design pressures are presented graphically
on the enclosed Cantilever and Tieback Shoting Wall Diagrams (Figure 3) and are
discussed in the following paragraphs.
Static Pressures: For tieback shoring walls having two or more rows of tiebacks,
we generally recommend using an apparent lateral earth pressure with a
trapezoidal distribution, as shown on Figure 3. Based on. the site soils, we
recommend using a peak earth pressure of 25H pounds per square foot (psf),
where H is equal to the height of excavation in feet, for the uniform portion of this
trapezoidal distribution. This static earth pressure should be applied over the
soldier pile spacing width from the top of the pile downward to the base of
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 6 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
Y
excavation. Below this level, an active earth pressure of 35 pounds per cubic
foot (pcf), modeled as a fluid unit weight, should be applied over the diameter of
the pile only, as shown on Figure 3. Cantilever soldier pile shoring walls (without
tiebacks) are designed for the triangular active earth pressure diagram both
above and below the base of excavation level-, in lieu of apparent lateral earth
pressures, as noted on Figure 3.
0 Surcharge Pressures: Lateral earth pressures acting on the soldier piles should
be increased to account for any surcharge loadings from traffic, construction
equipment, material stockpiles, or structures that are located within a horizontal
distance equal to the wall height. For simplicity, a traffic surcharge can be
modeled as a uniform lateral pressure of 75 psf acting over the upper 6 feet of
wall, as shown on Figure 3.
Seismic Pressures: Temporary shoring walls need not be designed for seismic
loads, given the relatively short duration of construction excavation and the
additional load capacity "built into" the static safety factor for the wall. However, if
the shoring wall is designed in combination with a permanent wall, we
recommend that the lateral earth pressures be increased to account for seismic
loads. These seismic pressures act over the entire back of the wall and vary with
the backslope inclination, the seismic acceleration, and the wall height. For
permanent walls designed for yielding conditions (allowing a wall rotation of
0.001 to 0.002 times the wall height), we recommend using a uniform horizontal
seismic loading of 4H psf, based on the active state lateral earth pressure.
Conversely, a non -yielding (restrained) permanent wall should be designed to
withstand a uniform horizontal seismic loading of 12H psf, based on the at -rest
state lateral earth pressure. The recommended seismic surcharge pressure
distribution is presented graphically on Figure 3.
Hydrostatic Pressures: If groundwater is allowed to saturate the soils behind the
below -grade perimeter walls, hydrostatic pressures will act against the walls. At
this site, however, we are assuming that the. shoring walls will be provided with a
geocomposite drainage mat system and that an under -slab drainage system will
be installed to provide a permanent dewatering system for the structure. We
therefore do not expect that hydrostatic pressures will develop.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 7 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
Resisting Forces: Lateral resistance can be computed by using an appropriate
allowable passive earth pressure acting over the embedded portion of each soldier pile,
neglecting the upper 2 feet. The trapezoidal distribution of this allowable passive
pressure can be modeled as shown on Figure 3. This passive pressure should be
applied over a lateral distance equal to the pile spacing or twice the pile diameter,
whichever is less. For. a level excavation base, we recommend using an allowable
passive earth pressure of 375 pcf for the very dense advance outwash sand with gravel,
modeled as a fluid unit weight, in the static design case; in the seismic case we
recommend using an allowable passive fluid pressure of 500 pcf, as shown on Figure 3.
These allowable passive earth pressures incorporate a safety factor of 1.5 and 1.1 for
the static and seismic case, respectively.
Pile Capacities and Deflections: Appropriate side -friction and end -bearing �capacities
can be used to determine total vertical capacities of the soldier piles that may be
required to resist underpinning loads or the vertical component of the tieback loads. To
estimate lateral deflections of the sol dier piles, we recommend using appropriate
subgrade reaction muduli. For the embedded portion of a soldier pile bearing within the
native, very dense glacial till soils or advance outwash sands, our recommended
allowable design values are shown on the enclosed Figure 3 and are summarized
below. The allowable values for side friction and end bearing incorporate safety factors
of 1.5 and 2.0 for temporary and permanent conditions,, respectively.
Allowable Design Values
Temporary Permanent
Design Parameter Case Case
Side Friction Capacity (very dense sands) 1,500 psf 1,200 psf
End Bearing Capacity (very dense sands) 20 ksf 15 ksf
Our recommendations regarding lagging design and installation are presented below.
Wood Lagging Materials: Wood lagging is typically installed in between all soldier piles
to reduce the potential for soil failure, loss of ground, and hazardous working conditions.
In. our opinion, either conventional wooden timbers or reinforced shotcrete could be
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 8 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
utilized as lagging at the site. For permanent applications, we recommend that all
wooden timber lagging be pressure -treated.
Lateral Pressures on Wood Lagging: Due to soil arching effects, temporary lagging that
spans 8 feet or less need be designed for only 25 percent of the lateral earth pressure
previously recommended for soldier pile design. Permanent lagging, on the other hand,
should be designed for 50 percent of this same lateral earth pressure.
Wood Lagging Backfill: We recommend that any voids greater than 1-inch behind the
lagging be backfilled, but the backfill material should not be allowed to prevent
groundwater flow. If inadequate drainage is provided behind the lagging, hydrostatic
pressure will develop on the wall. Pea gravel would provide an effective lagging backfill
material to promote adequate drainage, whereas concrete, cdf, or other impermeable
materials are not recommended. The void spaces should be backfilled progressively as
the excavation proceeds.
Tieback Conflicts and Easements: Because tiebacks typically extend about 30 to 60 feet
behind the excavation face, conflicts with underground utilities, as well as with adjacent
structures and foundations, often arise. The project structural engineer should carefully
consider the locations of such obstructions when laying out all tiebacks. Easements
might be required for any tiebacks that extend onto private properties and right-of-way
areas beyond the site property boundaries. It should also be realized that the City of
Seattle does not typically allow permanent tiebacks to encroach on their roadway right-
of-way limits.
Tieback No -Load Zone: The anchor portion of all tiebacks must be located a sufficient
distance behind the retained excavation face to develop resistance within a stable soil
mass. We recommend that the anchorage be obtained behind a "no-load zone" defined
by a plane projected upward at a 60-degree angle from the base of the excavation and
set back from the excavation face a horizontal distance equal to 25 percent of the face
height, as shown on Figure 3.
Tieback Anchor Length and Spacing: The anchor portion of the tieback (that portion
behind the no-load zone) should have a minimum length of 10 feet and should be
located at least 10 feet below the ground surface, as shown on Figure 3. To avoid
interactions between adjacent tiebacks, we recommend that a clear spacing of at least 5
feet be maintained along the anchor zones.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 9 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
Estimated Tieback Adhesion: If properly grouted, we tentatively estimate that allowable
concrete/soil adhesion values listed in the table below (and shown on Figure 3) for the
various site soil layers may be used for the anchor portion of a tieback. These
allowable adhesion values incorporate a safety factor of 1.1 and 1.5 for the temporary
and permanent conditions, respectively. It should be noted, however, that the actual
design values will depend on the installation method and should be confirmed by load -
testing all tiebacks in the field.
Allowable Tieback Adhesion
Values
Temporary Permanent
Soil Type Case Case
Dense to Very Dense, Silty Gravelly 1,500 psf 1,200 psf
Sand (Glacial Till) or Sand with gravel
(Advance Outwash)
Tieback Load Testing: We recommend that , all tiebacks be subjected to a
comprehensive testing program that will verify the integrity of individual tiebacks and
provide information regarding their long-term creep characteristics. Two separate types
of tests are appropriate for temporary tiebacks: 200-percent performance tests on a
limited numberof tiebacks (within each different soil unit), and 133-percent proof tests
on each remaining tieback anchor. For permanent tiebacks, we also recommend that
300-percent - verification tests be performed. Kleinfelder can supply details for
conducting these tests, upon request.
Wall Deflection and Settlement Monitoring: We - recommend that the top -of -wall
horizontal deflection and potential vertical settlement of the ground surface behind the
wall be monitored by means of standard surveying techniques, in order to assess the
performance of the shoring wall during construction. Settlement monitoring should
include establishing settlement bench marks on the existing ground surface behind the
wall. Top -of -wall horizont al deflections should be monitored along the wall at both ends,
at the mid -point, and every 20 feet in between. These survey points should be
monitored immediately after soldier pile installation, regularly during excavation, and on
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 10 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
I
a weekly basis following complete excavation. We recommend that Kleinfelder be
allowed to review this survey monitoring data as soon as it becomes available.
Construction Monitoring: Because shoring walls require specialized installation and
earthwork techniques to maintain stable conditions during and after construction, we
strongly recommend that an Kleinfelder representative be retained to continuously
monitor the installation of all soldier piles, wood lagging, and tiebacks. This monitoring
would include observation and documentation of installation procedures, construction
materials, drilling conditions, soil conditions, pile plumbness, as well as tieback load
testing and confirmation of lock -off loads.

Subject: Geotechnical Supplement No. 1: Excavation Shoring Considerations
Edmonds Mixed -Use Development
232 nd Street SW & Edmonds Way (SR 104)
Edmonds, Washington 98122
Dear Mr. Abbott:
Kleinfelder, Inc. (Kleinfelder) is pleased to present this letter summarizing our limited
geotechnical engineering review for the construction excavation and shoring
requirements at the subject site. Kleinfelder previously provided general geotechnical
design recommendations for this project in our Geotechnical Investigation Report (Job
No. 71716, dated July 7, 2006). The conclusions and recommendations of this
supplementary engineering evaluation should only be used in conjunction with our
original geotechnical evaluation for the project. The scope of work for this
supplementary evaluation included a site reconnaissance visit and subsequent
supplementary engineering analyses. Authorization to proceed was given by Mr. James
Abbott of Valhalla, LLC (Valhalla) on October 10, 2007.
SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located at the southwest corner of Edmonds Way and 232 nd Street
SW in Edmonds, Washington, as shown in Figure 1, and consists of Parcels A through
F, as shown in Figure 2. In general, the site is relatively level and accessible from
Edmonds Way, sloping gradually from about elevation 200 feet at the southeast end to
a low of about elevation 186 feet at the northwest end. However, the western perimeter
of the project site runs along an east facing steep slope area. The western property line
zig-zags across the slope face, following a north -south property alignment, with surface
elevations ranging fr om about 196 near the toe to 216 feet near the upper end of the
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 1 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
steep slopes. The previous structures at the site have been demolished, leaving a few
relic retaining walls against the hill side. along the northwest portion of the site. The
vegetation encountered on -site consisted of grass, brush, and trees. The general
layout of the project site is shown on the attached Figure 2A.
We understand that a mixed use retail building with below grade parking is planned in
the south end of the site, while a series of town homes are planned within the northern
,portion of the site. The mixed use building is to be constructed up against the west
property line. The construction excavations required for this structure will require
temporary cut sloping or cantilever/tieback soldier pile shoring walls, or a combination
thereof. Temporary sloping or tieback shoring wall systems will require a temporary
easement from the neighboring properties to be feasible. It should be noted that two
adjacent structures (a small building and garage) are located very near the property
lines west of the planned mixed use building in the south end of the site. Given the
close proximity of these structures, their age and susceptibility to settlement induced
cracking, we recommend that a shoring wall be used to provide construction- excavation
support in lieu of temporary sloping, to reduce potential settlement risks. The town
homes in the northern portion of the site will be setback from the property lines, with a
planned level access drive area between the structures and the slopes to the west.
EXPLORATORY METHODS
The surface and subsurface conditions at the project site were explored on a previous
site visit for our original geotechnical evaluation, and during a recent site
reconnaissance visit on October 25 and 29, 2007. The previous subsurface exploration
consisted of excavating 10 test pits to a maximum depth of approximately 12-feet below
the existing ground surface (bgs) at the approximate locations shown in Figure 2A. Our
current supplementary study included a recent site reconnaissance visit, and additional
borings advanced along the proposed temporary shoring wall location along the steep
slopes on the western property boundary. Along with boring logs for these current
explorations, we have also included copies of the exploration logs for the previous test
pits with this letter, for convenience. The following paragraphs describe the procedures
associated with the field 'explorations and field tests that were conducted for this
supplementary investigation.
Auger Boring Procedures
The exploratory borings were advanced with a hollow -stem auger on October 25 and
29, 2007, using a limited access, track -mounted drill rig and portable acker drill rig
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 2 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
f
operated by an independent drilling firm working under subcontract to Kleinfelder. A
geotechnical engineer from our firm continuously observed the borings, logged the
subsurface conditions, and collected representative soil samples. All samples were
stored in sealed plastic jars and later transported to our laboratory for further visual
examination and testing. After each boring was completed, the borehole was backfilled
with a mixture of bentonite chips and soil cuttings.
Throughout the drilling operation, soil samples were obtained at 2Y2- or 5-foot depth
intervals by means of the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) per ASTUD-1586. This
testing and sampling procedure consists of driving a standard 2-inch outside diameter
steel split -spoon sampler 18 inches into the soil with a 140-pound hammer free -falling
30 inches. The number of blows required to drive the sampler through each 6-inch
interval is counted, and.the total number of blows struck during the final 12 inches is
recorded as the Standard Penetration Resistance, or "SPT blow count." If a total of 50
blows are struck within any 6-inch interval, the driving is stopped and the blow count is
recorded as 50 blows for the actual penetration distance. The resulting Standard
Penetration Resistance values indicate the relative density of granular soils and the
relative consistency of cohesive soils.
The boring logs attached to this letter describe the vertical sequence of soils and
materials encountered in each boring, based primarily on our field classifications and
supported by our subsequent laboratory examination and testing. Where a soil contact
was observed to be gradational, our logs indicate the average contact depth. Where a
soil type changed between sample intervals, we inferred the contact depth. Our logs
also graphically indicate the blow count, sample type, sample number, and approximate
depth of each soil sample obtained from the borings, as well as any laboratory tests
performed on these soil samples. If any groundwater was encountered in a borehole,
the approximate groundwater depth is depicted on the boring log. Groundwater depth
estimates are typically based on the moisture content of soil samples, the wetted height
on the drilling rods, and the water level measured in the borehole after the auger has
been extracted.
Laboratory Testing
As a part of our geotechnical evaluation, we performed a series of Grain Size Analyses,
and Moisture Content Determinations. The results of these laboratory tests are
presented in the enclosed laboratory test reports and on the exploration logs. A general
grain size analysis indicates the range of soil particle diameters included in a particular
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 3 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
sample, while a 200 wash indicates how much fines (silt and clay sized particles) that is
contained in a sample. These grain size laboratory tests were performed in general
accordance with ASTM:D-422 and ASTM:C-1 17. Moisture content determinations were
completed in general accordance with ASTM:D-2216. The results of these laboratory
tests were used to develop the soil classifications shown on the exploration logs and
determine whether specific on -site soils will be suitable for re -use as structural fill.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Based on our previous site investigations, the site soils were generally disclosed in our
test pit explorations to consist of medium dense sand and gravel with trace amounts of
silt (Recessional Outwash), overlying dense to very dense, silty sand with varying
amounts of gravel (Glacial Till) on the slope areas, and very dense sand with varying
amounts of gravel and silt (Advance Outwash) within the low-lying areas of the site. No
groundwater was revealed n our previous explorations. Throughout the year,
groundwater levels would likely fluctuate in response to changing precipitation patterns,
off -site construction activities, and changes in site utilization. The deeper borings
advanced as a part of our current supplementary study generally confirmed these
subsurface conditions. It should be noted that our exploration along 232nd Street also
confirmed the presence of very dense Glacial Till soils in this area of the site, where
temporary sloping of excavation cuts are planned.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on our findings and the results of our supplemental analyses, the project is
considered feasible from a geotechnical standpoint, provided that the recommendations
of this supplementary letter are implemented. For the, planned cuts within the
southwestern portion of the site (west side of mixed use building), we anticipate that
temporary sloping may be used, provided that easements can be obtained and the
sections adjacent to the existing neighboring structures are supported by a soldier pile
and lagging shoring wall system, to limit the risk of undermining the adjacent structures.
We anticipate that soldier pile and lagging shoring walls will be required to shore the
vertical cuts (up to about 18 feet high) adjacent to the existing neighboring structures
west of the planned mixed use building. The following text sections of this report
present our specific geotechnical conclusions and - recommendations concerning
temporary shoring walls, spread footings, permanent walls, and drainage systems.

Temporary Excavation Slope Cuts
Temporary excavations should be performed in accordance with current federal, state
and/or local regulations. Temporary excavations in excess of 4 feet vertical height must
be sloped or supported in accordance with Part N of Washington Administrative Code
(WAC) 296-155. For planning purposes, recommend the following maximum cut slope
inclinations, based on the soil layers encountered within our explorations and the
corresponding OSHA Soil Type classifications:
Maximum
Soil Type Inclination
Medium Dense to Dense Sand with Gravel (Type B Soils) 1 H: 1V
Dense to Very Dense Glacial Till (Type A Soils) %H:1V
It should be noted that appropriate inclinations will ultimately depend on the actual soil
and groundwater seepage conditions exposed in the cuts at the time of construction. It
is the sole responsibility of the contractor to ensure that the excavation is properly
sloped or braced for worker protection. Furthermore, it should be noted that the cut
slope inclination of any overlying soil layer should not be steeper than the underlying
soil layer, according to OSHA guidelines. In addition to proper sloping, the excavation
cuts should be draped with plastic sheeting for the duration of the excavation to
minimize surface erosion and raveling. Excavations made below the water table will
likely require dewatering and/or shoring.
Temporary Shoring Walls
Temporary shoring walls up to roughly 18-feet high will be required to support the
planned perimeter cuts along the sloping ground areas along the western property. In
our opinion, a conventional, cantilever or tieback soldier pile and lagging wall would be
well -suited for this purpose. A cantilever, soldier pile shoring wall typically consists of
wood lagging placed between soldier piles installed in pre-augered holes backfilled with
lean mix or structural concrete to a typical depth below the excavation base of about 1.5
times the wall height above grade. The practical and economical vertical height limit for
a cantilevered (unsupported by soil anchors) soldier pile wall is typically on the order of
15 feet. Where the wall exceeds this practical cantilever height limit, soil tieback
anchors are typically installed through the soldier piles to provide the necessary lateral
support and limit lateral deflections of the wall system; such tiebacks may be installed in
a single row or in a multiple row configuration. A slightly different lateral soil pressure
analysis is required for each of these different wall configurations, as outlined
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 5 of 13 November 21, 2007

i
subsequently. It should be noted that special design considerations will be required to
limit wall deflection and potential ground settlement where the existing adjacent
buildings are located directly on or close to the planned basement cuts. To minimize
the risk of building damage, we recommend that these portions of the shoring wall be
designed for the horizontal surcharge resulting from such nearby footing loads, or that
the existing footing elements on these buildings be directly underpinned by the soldier
pile wall system. The following recommendations are provided fordesign of soldier pile
and lagging shoring walls.
Pile Embedment: All soldier piles should have sufficient embedment below the final
excavation level to provide adequate "kick -out" resistance to horizontal -loads. We
recommend. a minimum embedment of 10 feet below the excavation base. However,
deeper embedment might be needed to develop adequate vertical capacity or passive
resistance at specific locations, based on a structural analysis.
Drilling Conditions: Based on our explorations, we predict that the soldier pile. and grout
tieback holes will encounter dense to very dense silty gravelly sand (glacial till) or dense
to very dense sand with gravel/silt (Advance Outwash). Loose to medium dense
overburden soils can likely be drilled without difficulties, using a conventional. auger,
whereas the underlying very dense glacial till or -advance. outwash soils may. yield
slower drilling rates. Although none of our explorations encountered cobbles or
boulders, it should be realized that such obstructions can exist at random locations
within the native deposits. Rubble could also be present within the upper fill soils.
Applied Loads: Soldier piles should be designed to resist various applied loads, which
can be classified as static pressures, -surcharge pressures, seismic pressures, and
hydrostatic pressures. Our recommended design pressures are presented graphically
on the enclosed Cantilever and Tieback Shoring Wall Diagrams (Figure 3) and are
discussed in the following paragraphs.
Static Pressures.- For tieback shoring walls having two or more rows of tiebacks,
we generally recommend using an. apparent lateral earth pressure with a
trapezoidal distribution, as shown on Figure 3. Based on th e site soils, we
recommend using a peak earth pressure of 25H pounds per square foot (psf),
where H is equal to the height of excavation in feet, for the uniform portion of this
trapezoidal distribution. 'This static, earth pressure should be applied over the
soldier pile spacing width from the top of the pile downward to the base of
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 6 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
r
excavation. Below this level, an active earth pressure of 35 pounds per cubic
foot (pcf), modeled as a fluid unit weight, should be applied over the diameter of
the pile only, as shown on Figure 3. Cantilever soldier pile shoring walls (without
tiebacks) are designed for the triangular active earth pressure diagram both
above and below the base of excavation level, in lieu of apparent lateral earth
pressures, as noted on Figure 3.
Surcharge Pressures: Lateral earth pressures acting on the soldier piles should
be increased to account for any surcharge loadings from traffic, construction
equipment, material stockpiles, or structures that are located within a horizontal
distance equal to the wall height. For simplicity, a traffic surcharge can be
modeled as a uniform lateral pressure of 75 psf acting over the upper 6 feet of
wall, as shown on Figure 3.
Seismic Pressures: Temporary shoring walls need not be designed for seismic
loads, given the relatively short duration of construction excavation and the
additional load capacity "built into" the static safety factor for the wall. However, if
the shoring wall is designed in combination with a permanent wall, we
recommend that the lateral earth pressures be increased to account for seismic
loads. These seismic pressures act over the entire back of the wall and vary with
the backslope inclination, the seismic acceleration, and the wall height. For
permanent walls designed for yielding conditions (allowing a wall rotation of
0.001 to 0.002 times the wall height), we recommend using a uniform horizontal
seismic loading of 4H psf, based on the active state lateral earth pressure.
Conversely, a non -yielding (restrained) permanent wall should be designed to
withstand a uniform horizontal seismic loading of 12H psf, based on the at -rest
state lateral earth pressure. The recommended seismic surcharge pressure
distribution is presented graphically on Figure 3.
Hydrostatic Pressures: If groundwater is allowed to saturate the soils behind the
belOW7grade perimeter walls, hydrostatic pressures will act against the walls. At
this site, however, we are assuming that the shoring walls will be provided with a
geocomposite drainage mat system and that an under -slab drainage system will
be installed to provide a permanent dewatering system for the structure. We
therefore do not expect that hydrostatic pressures will develop.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 7 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
Resisting Forces: Lateral resistance can be computed by using an appropriate
allowable passive earth pressure acting over the embedded portion of each soldier pile,
neglecting the upper 2 feet. The trapezoidal distribution of this allowable passive
pressure can be modeled as shown on Figure 3. This passive pressure should be
applied over a lateral distance equal to the pile'spacing or twice the pile diameter,
whichever is less. For a level excavation base, we recommend using an allowable
passive earth pressure of 375 pcf for the very dense advance outwash sand with gravel,
modeled as a fluid unit weight, in the static design case; in the seismic case we
recommend using an allowable passive fluid pressure of 500 pcf, as. shown on Figure 3.
These allowable passive earth pressures incorporate a safety factor of 1.5 and 1.1 for
the static and seismic case, respectively.
Pile Capacities and Deflections: Appropriate side -friction and end -bearing capacities
can be used. to determine total vertical capacities of the soldier piles that may be
required to resist underpinning loads or the vertical component of the tieback loads. To
estimate lateral deflections of the soldier piles, we recommend using appropriate
subgrade reaction muduli. For the em bedded portion of a soldier pile bearing within the
native, very dense glacial till soils or advance outwash sands, our recommended
allowable design values are shown on the enclosed Figure 3 and are summarized
below. The allowable values for side friction and end bearing incorporate safety factors
of 1.5 and 2.0 for temporary and permanent conditions, respectively.
Design Parameter
Allowable Design Values
Temporary Permanent
Case Case
Side Friction Capacity (very dense sands) 1,500 psf 1,200 psf
End Bearing Capacity (very dense sands) 20 ksf 15 ksf
Our recommendations regarding lagging design and installation are presented below.
Wood Lagging Materials: Wood lagging is typically installed in between all soldier piles
to reduce the potential for soil failure, loss of ground, and, hazardous working conditions.
In our opinion, either conventional wooden timbers or reinforced. shotcrete could be
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 8 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
lu
utilized as lagging at the site. For permanent applications, we recommend that all
wooden timber lagging be pressure -treated.
Lateral Pressures on Wood Lagging: Due to soil arching effects, temporary lagging that
spans 8 feet or less need be designed for only 25 percent of the lateral earth pressure
previously recommended for soldier pile design. Permanent lagging, on the other hand,
should be designed for 50 percent of this same lateral earth pressure.
Wood Lagging Backfill: We recommend that any voids greater than 1-inch behind the
lagging be backfilled, but the backfill material should not be allowed to prevent
groundwater flow. If inadequate drainage is provided behind the lagging, hydrostatic
pressure will develop on the wall. Pea gravel would provide an effective lagging backfill
material to promote adequate drainage, whereas concrete, cdf, or other impermeable
materials are not recommended. The void spaces should be backfilled progressively as
the excavation proceeds.
Tieback Conflicts and Easements: Because tiebacks typically extend about 30 to 60 feet
behind the excavation face, conflicts with underground utilities, as well as with adjacent
structures and foundations, often arise. The project structural engineer should carefully
consider the locations of such obstructions when laying out all tiebacks. Easements
might be required for any tiebacks that extend onto private properties and right-of-way
areas beyond the site property boundaries. It should also be realized that the City of
Seattle does not typically allow permanent tiebacks to encroach on their roadway right-
of-way limits.
Tieback No -Load Zone: The anchor portion of all tiebacks must be located a sufficient
distance behind the retained excavation face to develop resistance within a stable soil
mass. We recommend that the anchorage be obtained behind a "no-load zone" defined
by a plane projected upward at a 60-degree angle from the base of the excavation and
set back from the excavation face a horizontal distance equal to 25 percent of the face
height, as shown on Figure 3.
Tieback Anchor Length and Spacing: The anchor portion of the tieback (that portion
behind the no-load zone) should have a minimum length of 10 feet and should be
located at least 10 feet below the ground surface, as shown on Figure 3. To avoid
interactions between adjacent tiebacks, we recommend that a clear spacing of at least 5
feet be maintained along the anchor zones.
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 9 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
Estimated Tieback Adhesion: If properly grouted, we tentatively estimate that allowable
concrete/soil adhesion values listed in the table below (and shown on Figure 3) for the
various site soil layers may be used for the anchor portion of a tieback. These
allowable adhesion values incorporate a safety factor of 1.1 and 1.5 for the temporary
and permanent conditions, respectively. It should be noted, however, that the actual
design values will depend on the installation method and should be confirmed by load -
testing all tiebacks in the field.

Values
Temporary
. Case
Permanent
Case
Dense to Very Dense, Silty Gravelly 1,500 psf 1,200 psf
Sand (Glacial Till) or Sand with gravel
(Advance Outwash)
Tieback Load Testing: We recommend that all tiebacks be subjected to a
comprehensive testing program that will verify the integrity of individual tiebacks and
provide information regarding their long-term creep characteristics. Two separate types
of �tests -are appropriate for temporary tiebacks: 200-percent performance tests on a
limited number of tiebacks (within each different soil unit), and 133-percent proof tests
on each remaining tieback anchor. For permanent tiebacks, we also recommend that
300-percent verification tests be performed. Kleinfelder can supply details for
conducting these tests, upon request.
Wall.Deflection and Settlement Monitoring: We recommend that the top -of -wall
horizontal deflection and potential vertical settlement of the ground surface behind the
wall be monitored by means of standard surveying techniques, in order to assess the
performance of- the- shoring wall during construction. . Settlement monitoring should
include establishing settlement bench marks on the existing ground surface behind the
wall. Top -of -wall horizontal deflections should be monitored -along the wall at both ends,
at' the mid -point, and every 20 feet in between. These survey points should be
monitored immediately after soldier pile installation, regularly during excavation, and on
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 10 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder
16
a weekly basis following complete excavation. We recommend that Kleinfelder be
allowed to review this survey monitoring data as soon as it becomes available.
Construction Monitoring: Because shoring walls require specialized installation and
earthwork techniques to maintain stable conditions during and after construction, we
strongly recommend that an Kleinfelder representative be retained to continuously
monitor the installation of all soldier piles, wood lagging, and tiebacks. This monitoring
would include observation and documentation of installation procedures, construction
materials, drilling conditions, soil conditions, pile plumbness, as well as tieback load
testing and confirmation of lock -off loads.

construction procedures. Monitoring by experienced geotechnical personnel should be
considered an integral part of the construction process. Kleinfelder is available to
provide geotechnical inspection and testing services during the earthwork and
foundation construction phases of the project. If variations in the subgrade conditions
are observed at that time, we would be able to provide additional geotechnical
engineering recommendations, thus minimizing delays as the project develops. We are
also available to review preliminary plans and specifications before construction begins.
We appreciate the opportunity to be of continued service to you. Should you have any
questions concerning this letter, or if we can assist you further, please contact us at

Attention: Mr. James Abbott
Subject: Geotechnical Supplement No. 1: Excavation Shoring Considerations
Edmonds Mixed -Use Development
232nd Street SW & Edmonds Way (SR 104)
Edmonds, Washington 98122
Dear Mr. Abbott:
Kleinfelder, Inc. (Kleinfelder) is pleased to present this letter summarizing our limited
geotechnical engineering review for the construction excavation and shoring
requirements at the subject site. Kleinfelder previously provided general geotechnical
design recommendations for this project in our Geotechnical Investigatio.n Report (Job
No. 71716, dated July 7, 2006). The conclusions and recommendations of this
supplementary engineering evaluation should only be used in conjunction with our
original geotechnical evaluation for the project. The scope of work for this
supplementary evaluation included a site reconnaissance visit and subsequent
supplementary engineering analyses. Authorization to proceed was given by Mr. James
Abbott of Valhalla, LLC (Valhalla) on October 10, 2007.
SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located at the southwest corner of Edmonds Way and 232" Street
SW in Edmonds, Washington, as shown in Figure'l, and consists of Parcels A through
F, as shown in Figure 2. In general, the site is relatively level and accessible from
Edmonds Way, sloping gradually from about elevation 200 feet at the southeast end to
a low of about elevation 186 feet at the northwest end. However, the western perimeter
of the project site runs along an east facing steep slope area. The western property line
zig-zags across the slope face, following a north -south property alignment, with surface
elevations ranging from about 196 near the toe to 216 feet near the upper end of the
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 1 of 13 November 21, 2007

steep slopes. The previous structures at the site have been demolished, leaving a few
relic retaining walls against the hill side along th6 northwest portion of the site. The
vegetation encountered on -site consisted of grass, brush, and trees., The general
layout of the project site is shown on the attached Figure 2A.
We understand that a mixed use retail building with below grade parking is planned in
the south end of the site, while a series of town homes are planned within the northern
portion of the site. The mixed use building is to be constructed up against the west
property line. The construction excavations required for this structure will require
temporary cut sloping or cantilever/tieback soldier pile shoring walls, or a combination
thereof. Temporary sloping or tieback shoring wall systems will require a temporary
easement from the neighboring properties to be feasible. It should be noted that two
adjacent structures (a small building and garage) are located very near the property
lines west of the planned mixed use building in the south end of the site. Given the
close proximity of these structures, their age and susceptibility to settlement induced
cracking, we recommend that a shoring wall be used to provide construction excavation
support in lieu of temporary sloping, to reduce potential settlement risks. The town
homes- in the northern portion of the site will be setback from the property linesi with a
planned level access drive area between the structures and the slopes to the west.
EXPLORATORY METHODS
The surface and subsurface conditions at the project site were explored on a previous
site visit for our original geotechnical evaluation, and during a recent site
reconnaissance visit on October 25 and 29, 2007. The previous subsurface exploration
consisted of excavating 10 test pits to a maximum depth of approximately 12-feet below
the existing ground surface (bgs) at the approximate locations shown in Figure 2A. Our
current supplementary study included a recent site reconnaissance visit and additional
borings advanced along the proposed temporary s ' horing wall location along the steep
slopes on the western property boundary. Along with boring logs for these current
explorations, we have also included copies of the exploration logs for the p revious test
pits with this letter, for convenience. The following paragraphs describe the procedures
associated with the field explorations and field tests that were conducted for -this
supplementary investigation.
Auger Boting Procedures
The exploratory borings were advanced with a hollow -stem auger on October 25 and
29, 2007, using a limited access, track -mounted drill rig and portable acker drill rig
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 2 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder

operated by an independent drilling firm working under subcontract to Kleinfelder. A
geotechnical engineer from our firm continuously observed the borings, logged the
subsurface conditions, and collected representative soil samples. All samples were
stored in sealed plastic jars and later transported to our laboratory for further visual
examination and testing. After each boring was completed, the borehole was backfilled
with a mixture of bentonite chips and soil cuttings.
Throughout the drilling operation, soil samples were obtained at 2Y.— or 5-foot depth
intervals by means of the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) per ASTIVID-1586. This
testing and sampling procedure consists of driving a standard 2-inch outside diameter
steel split -spoon sampler 18 inches into the soil with a 140-pound hammer free -falling
30 inches. The number of blows required to drive the sampler through each 6-i nch
interval is counted, and the total number of blows struck during the final 12 inches is
recorded as the Standard Penetration Resistance, or "SPT blow count." If a total of 50
blows are struck within any 6-inch interval, the driving is stopped and the blow count is
recorded as 50 blows for the actual penetration distance. The resulting Standard
Penetration Resistance values indicate the relative density of granular, soils and the
relative consistency of cohesive soils.
The boring logs attached to this letter describe the vertical sequence. of soils and
materials encountered in each boring, based primarily on our field class ifi cation s and
supported by our subsequent laboratory examination and testing. Where a soil contact
was observed to be gradational, our logs indicate the average contact depth. Where a
soil type changed between sample intervals, we inferred the contact depth. Our logs
also graphically indicate the blow count, sample type, sample number, and approximate
depth of each soil sample obtained from the borings, as well as any laboratory tests
performed on these soil samples. If any groundwater was encountered in a borehole,
the approximate groundwater depth is depicted on the boring log. Groundwater depth
estimates are typically based on the moisture content of soil samples, the wetted height
on the drilling rods, and the water level measured in the borehole after the auger has
been extracted.
Laboratofy Testing
As a part of our geotechnical evaluation, we performed a series of Grain Size Analyses,
and Moisture Content Detenninations. The results of these laboratory tests are
presented in the enclosed laboratory test reports and on the exploration logs. A. general
grain size analysis indicates the range of soil particle diameters included in a particular

sample,.while a 200 wash indicates how much fines (silt an d clay sized particles) that is
contained in a sample. These grain size laboratory tests were performed in general
accordance with ASTM:D-422 and ASTM:C-1 17. Moisture content determinations were
completed in general accordance with ASTM:D-2216. The results of these laboratory
tests were used to develop the soil classifications shown on the exploration logs and
determine whether specific on -site soils will be suitable for re -use as structural fill.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Based on ourprevious site investigations, the site soils were generally disclosed in our
test pit explorations to consist of medium dense sand and gravel with trace amounts of
silt (Recessional Outwash), overlying dense to very dense, silty sand with varying
amounts of gravel (Glacial Till) on the slope areas, and,very dense sand with varying
amounts of gravel and silt (Advance Outwash) within the low-lying areas of the site. No
groundwater was revealed n our previous explorations. Throughout the year,
groundwater levels would likely fluctuate in response to changing precipitation'patterns,
off -site construction activities, and changes in site utilization. The deeper borings
advanced as a part of our' current supplementary study generally confirmed these
sub surface conditions. It should be noted that.our exploration along 232 nd Street also
confirmed the presence of very dense Glacial Till soils in this area of the site, where
temporary sloping of excavation cuts are planned.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on our findings and the results of our supplemental analyses, the project is
considered feasible from a geotechnical standpoint, provided that the recommendations
of this supplementary left er are implemented. For the planned cuts within the
southwestern portion of the site (west side of mixed use building), we anticipate that
tempora ry sloping may be used, provided that easements can be obtained and the
sections adjacent to the existin g neighboring structures are supported by a soldier pile
and lagging shoring wall system, to limit the risk of undermining the adjacent structures.
We anticipate that soldier pile and lagging shoring walls will be required to shore the
vertical cuts (up to about 18 feet high) adjacent to the existing neighboring, structures
west of the planned mixed use building. The following text sections of this report
present our specific geotechnical conclusions and recommendations concerning
temporary shoring walls, spread footings, permanent walls, and drainage systems.

Temporary Excavation Slope Cuts
Temporary excavations sh6 uld be performed in accordance with current federal, state
and/or local regulations. Temporary excavations in excess of 4 feet vertical height must
be sloped or supported in accordance with Part N of Washington Administrative Code
(WAC) 296-155. For planning purposes, recommend the following maximum cut slope
inclinations, based on the soil layers encountered within our explorations and the
corresponding OSHA Soil Type classifications:
Maximum
Soil Type Inclination
Medium Dense to Dense Sand with Gravel (Type B Soils) 1H:1V
Dense to Very Dense Glacial Till (Type A Soils) %HAV
It should be noted that appropriate inclinations will ultimately depend on the actual soil
and groundwater seepage conditions exposed in the cuts at the time of construction. It
is the sole responsibility of the contractor to ensure that the excavation is properly
sloped or braced for worker protection. Furthermore, it should be noted that the cut
slope inclination of any overlying soil layer should not be steeper than the underlying
soil layer, according to OSHA guidelines. In addition to proper sloping, the excavation
cuts should be draped with plastic sheeting for the duration of the excavation to
minimize surface erosion and raveling. Excavations made below the water table will
likely require dewatering and/or shoring.
Temporary Shoring Walls
Temporary shoring walls up to roughly 18-feet high will be required to support the
planned perimete r cuts along the sloping ground areas along the western property. In
our opinion, a conventional, cantilever or tieback soldier pile and lagging wall would be
well -suited for this purpose. A cantilever, soldier pile shoring wall typically consists of
wood lagging placed between soldier piles installed in pre-augered holes backfilled with
lean mix or structural concrete to a typical depth below the excavation base of about 1.5
times the wall height above grade. The-p

��,5f6et. Wlie—r—etffe—wall exceeds this practical cantilever height limit, soil tieback
anchors are typically installed through the soldier piles to provide the necessary lateral
support and limit lateral deflections of the wall system; such tiebacks may be installed in
a single row or in a multiple row co n*figuration. A slightly different lateral soil pressure
analysis is required for each of these different wall configurations, as outlined
18601/SEA7L242.loc Page 5 of 13 November 21, 2007

sub . sequently. It should be noted that special design considerations will be required to
limit wall deflection and potential ground settlement where the existing adjacent
buildings are located directly on or close to the planned basement cuts. To minimize
the risk of building damage, we recommend that these portions of the shoring wall be
designed for the horizontal surcharge resulting from such nearby footing.loads, or that
the existing tooting elements on these buildings be directly underpinned by the soldier
pile wall system. The following recommendations are provided for design of soldier pile
and lagging shoring walls.
Pile Embedment: All soldier piles should have sufficient embedment below the final
excavation level to provide adequate "kick -out" resistance to horizontal loads. We
recommend a minimum embedment of 10 feet below the excavation base. However,
deeper embedment might be needed to develop adequate vertical capacity or passive
resistance at specific locations, based on a structural analysis.
Drilling Conditions: Based on our explorations, we predict that the soldier pile and grout
tieback holes will encounter dense to very dense silty gravelly sand (glacial till) or dense
to very dense sand with gravel/silt (Advance Outwash). Loose to medium dense
overburden soils can likely be drilled without difficulties, using a conventional auger,
whereas the underlying very dense glacial till or advance outwash soils may yield
slower drilling rates. Although none of our explorations encountered cobbles or
boulders, it should be realized that such obstructions can exist at random locations
within the native deposits. Rubble could also be present within the upper fill soils.
Applied Loads: Soldier piles should be designed to resist various applied loads, which
can be classified as static pressures, surcharge pressures, seismic pressures, and
hydrostatic pressures. Our recommended design pressures are presented graphically
on the enclosed Cantilever and Tieback Shoring Wall Diagrams (Figure 3) and are
discussed in the following paragraphs.
Static Pressures: For tieback shoring walls having two or more rows of tiebacks,
we generally recommend using an apparent lateral earth pressure with a
trapezoidal distribution, as shown on Figure 3. Based on the site soils, we
recommend using a peak earth pressure of 25H pounds per square foot (psf),
where H is equal to the height of excavation in feet, for the uniform portion of this
trapezoidal distribution. This static earth pressure should be applied over the
soldier pile spacing width from the top of the pile downward to the base of
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 6 of 13 November 21, 2007

excavation. Below this. level, an active earth pressure of 35 pounds per cubic
foot (pcf), modeled as a fluid unit weight, should be applied over the diameter of
the pile only, as shown on Figure 3. Cantilever soldier pile shoring walls (without
tiebacks) are designed for the triangular active earth 'pressure diagram both
above and below the base of excavation level, in lieu of apparent lateral earth
pressures, as noted on Figure 3.
Surcharge Pressures: Lateral earth pressures acting on the soldier piles should
be increased to account for any surcharge loadings fr om traffic, construction
equipment, material stockpiles, or structures that are located within a horizontal
distance'equal to the wall height. For simplicity, a traffic surcharge can be
modeled as a uniform lateral pressure of 75 psf acting over the. upper 6 feet of
wall, as shown on Figure 3.
Seismic Pressures: Temporary shoring walls need not be designed for seismic
loads, given the relatively short duration of construction excavation and the
additional load ca' acity "built into" the static safety factor for the wall. However, if
p
the shoring wall is designed in combination with a permanent wall, we
recommend that the lateral earth pressures be increased to account for seismic
loads. These seismic pressures act over the entire back of the wall and vary.with
the backslope inclination, the seismic acceleration, and the wall height. For
permanent walls designed for yielding conditions (allowing a wall rotation of
0.001 to 0.002 times the wall height), we recommend using a uniform horizontal
seismic loading of 4H psf, based on the active state lateral earth pressure.
Conversely, a non -yielding (restrained) permanent wall should be designed to
withstand a uniform horizontal seismic loading of 12H psf, based on the at -rest
state lateral earth pressure. The recommended seismic surcharge pressure
distribution is presented graphically on Figure 3.
Hydrostatic Pressures: If groundwater is allowed to saturate the soils behind the
below -grade perimeter walls, hydrostatic pressures will act against the walls. At
this site, however, we are assuming that the shoring walls Will be provided with a
g eocomposite drainage mat system and that an under -slab drainage system will
be installed to provide a permanent dewatering system for the structure. We
therefore do not expect that hydrostatic pressures will develop.

Resistinq Forces: Lateral resistance can be computed by using an appropriate
allowable passive earth pressure acting over the embedded portion of each soldier pile,
neglecting the upper, 2 feet. The trapezoidal distribution of this allowable passive
pressure can be modeled as shown on Figure 3. This passive pressure should be
applied over a lateral distance equal to the pile spacing or twice the pile diameter,
whichever is less For a level excavation base, we recommend using an allowable
passive earth pressure of 375 pcf for the very dense advance outwash sand with gravel,
modeled as a fluid unit weight, in the static design case; in the seismic case we
recommend using an allowable passive fluid pressure of 500 pcf, as shown on Figure 3.
These allowable passive earth pressures incorporate a safety factor of 1.5 and 1.1 for
the static and seismic case, respectively.
Pile Capacities and Deflections- Appropriate side -friction and end -bearing capacities
can be used to determine total vertical capacities of the soldier piles that may be
required to resist underpinning loads or the vertical component of the tieback loads. To
estimate lateral deflections of the soldier piles, we recommend . using appropriate
subgrade reaction muduli. For the embedded portion of a soldier pile bearing within the
native, very dense glacial till soils or advance outwash sands, our recommended
allowable design values are shown on the enclosed Figure 3 and are summarized
below. The allowable values for side friction and end bearing incorporate safety factors
of 1.5 and 2.0 for temporary and permanent conditions, respectively.
Design Parameter
Allowable Design Values

Case Case
Side Friction Capacity (very dense sands) 1,500 psf 1,200 psf
End Bearing Capacity (ve ry dense sands) 20 ksf 15 ksf
Our recommendations regarding lagging design and installation are presented below.
Wood Lagging Materials: Wood lagging is typically installed in between all soldier piles
to reduce the potential for soil failure, loss of ground, and hazardous working conditions.
In our opinion, either conventional wooden timbers or reinforced shotcrete could be

utilized as lagging at the site. For permanent applications, we recommend that all
wooden timber lagging be pressure -treated.
Lateral Pressures on Wood Lag 9
.qin.q: Due to soil arching effects, temporary la' ging that
spans 8 feet or less need be designed for only 25 percent of the lateral earth pressure
previously recommended for soldier pile design. Perm anent lagging, on the other hand,
should be designed for 50 percent of this same lateral earth pressure.
Wood Laggin_q Backfill:.We recommend that any voids greater than 1-inch behind the
lagging be backfilled, but the backfill material should not be allowed to prevent
groundwater flow. If inadequate drainage is provided behind the lagging, hydrostatic
pressure. will develop on the wall. Pea gravel would provide an effective lagging backfill
material to promote adequate drainage, whereas concrete, cdf, or other impermeable
materials are not recommended. The void spaces should be backfilled progressively as
the excavation proceeds.
Tieback Conflicts and Easements: Because tiebacks typically extend about 30 to 60 feet
behind the excavation face, conflicts with underground utilities, as well as with adjacent
structures and foundations, often arise. The project structural engineer should carefully
consider the locations of such obstructions when laying out all tiebacks. Easements
might be required for any tiebacks that extend onto private properties and right-of-way
areas beyond the site property boundaries. It should also be realized that the City of
Seattle does not typically allow permanent tiebacks to encroach on their roadway right-
of-way limits.
Tieback No -Load Zone: The anchor portion of all tiebacks must be located a sufficient
distance behind the retained excavation face to develop resistance within a stable soil
mass. We recommend that the anchorage be obtained behind a "no-load zone" defined
by a plane projecte6 upward at a 60-degree angle from the base of the excavation and
se t back from the excavation face a horizontal distance equal to 25 percent of the face
height, as shown on Figure 3.
Tieback Anchor Length and Spacing: The anchor portion of the tieback (that portion
behind the no-load zone) should have a minimum length of 10 feet and should be
located at least 10 feet below the ground surface, as shown on Figure 3. To avoid
interactions between adj ace nt tiebacks, Lwe-recornibond-that-a-clea r-s aci ng-of-anoaist' 5

Estimated Tieback Adhesion: If properly grouted, we tentatively estimate that allowable
concrete/soil adhesion values listed in the table below (and shown on Figure 3) for the
various site soil layers may be used for the anchor portion of a tieback. These
allowable adhesion values incorporate a safety factor of 1.1 and 1.5 for the temporary
and permanent conditions, respectively. It should be noted, h owever, that the actual
design values will depend on the install6tion method and should be confirmed by load -
testing all tiebacks in the field.

Tieback Load Testing: We recommend that all tiebacks be subjected to a
comprehensive testing program that will verify the integrity of individual tiebacks and
provide information regarding their long-term creep characteristics. Two separate types
of tests are appropriate for temporary tiebacks: 200-percent performance tests on. a
limited number of tiebacks (within each different soil unit), and 133-percent proof tests
on each remaining tieback anchor. For permanent tiebacks, we also recommend that
300-percent verification tests be performed. Kleinfelder can supply details for
conducting these tests, upon request.
Wall Deflection and Settlement Monitorinj. We recommend that the top -of -wall
horizontal deflection and potential vertical settlement of the ground surface behind the
wall be monitored by.means of standard surveying techniques, in order to assess the
performance of the shoring wall during construction. Settlement monitoring should
include establishing settlement bench marks on -the existing ground surface behind the
wall. Top -of -Wall horizonta I deflections should be monitored along the wall at both ends,
at the mid -point, and every 20 feet in between. These survey points should be
monitored immediately after soldier pile installation, regularly during excavation, and on

a, weekly basis following complete excavation. We recommend that Kleinfelder be
allowed to review this survey monitoring data as soon as it becomes available.
Construction Monitoring: Because shoring walls require specialized installation and
earthwork techniques to maintain stable conditions during and after construction, we
strongly recommend that an Kleinfelder representative be retained to continuously
monitor the installation of all soldier piles, wood lagging, and tiebacks. This monitoring
would include observation and documentation of installation procedures, construction
materials, drilling conditions, soil conditions, pile plumbness, as well as tieback load
testing and confirmation of lock -off loads.

Attention: Mr. James Abbott
Subject: Geotechnical Supplement No. 1: Excavation Shoring Considerations
Edmonds Mixed -Use Development
232nd Street SW & Edmonds Way (SR 104)
Edmonds, Washington 98122
Dear Mr. Abbott:
Kleinfelder, Inc. (Kleinfelder) is pleased *to present this letter summarizing our limited
geotechnical engineering review for the construction excavation and shoring
requirements at the subject site. Kleinfelder previously provided general geotechnical
design recommendations for this project in our Geotechnical Investigation Report (Job
No. 71716, dated July 7, 2006). The conclusions and recommendations of.this
supplementary engineering evaluation should only be used in conjunction with our
original geotechnical evaluation for the project. The scope of. work for this
supplementary evaluation included a site reconnaissance visit and subsequent
supplementary engineering analyses. Authorization to proceed was given by Mr. James
Abbott of Valhalla, LLC (Valhalla) on October 10, 2007.
SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located at the southwest corner of Edmonds Way and 232 nd Street
SW in Edmonds, Washington, as shown in Figure 1, and consists of Parcels A through
F, as shown in Figure 2. In general, the site is relatively level and accessible from
Edmonds Way, sloping gradually from about elevation 200 feet at the southeast end to
a low of about elevation 186 feet at the northwest end. However, the western perimeter
of the project site runs along an east facing steep slope area. The western property line
zig-zags across the slope face, following a north -south property alignment, with surface
elevations ranging from about 196 near the toe to 216 feet near the upper end of the
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 1 of 13 November 21, 2007
Copy(ight 2007 Kleinfelder

steep slopes. The previous structures at the site have been demolished, leaving a few
relic retaining walls against the hill side along the northwest portion of the site. The
vegetation encountered on -site consisted of grass, brush, and trees. The general
layout of the project site is shown on the attached Figure 2A.
We understand that a mixed use retail building with below grade parking is planned in
the south end of the site, while a series of town homes are planned within the northern
portion of the site. The mixed use building is to be constructed up against the west
property line. The construction excavations required for this structure will require
tempor ary cut sloping or cantilever/tieback soldier pile shoring walls, or a combination
thereof. Temporary sloping or tieback shoring wall systems will require a temporary
easement from the neighboring properties to be feasible. It should be noted that two
adjacent structures (a small building and garage) are located very near the property
lines west. of the planned mixed use building in the south end of the site. Given the
close proximity of these structures, their age and susceptibility to settlement induced
cracking, we recommend that a shoring wall be used to provide construction excavation
support in lieu of temporary sloping, to reduce potential settlement risks. The town
homes in the northern portion of the site will be setback from the property lines, with a
planned level access drive area between the structures and the slopes to the west.
EXPLORATORY METHODS
The surface and subsurfac e conditions at the project site were explored on a previous
site visit for our original geotechnical evaluation, and during a recent site
reconnaissance visit on October 25 and 29, 2007. The previous subsurface exploration
consisted of excavating 10 test pits to a maximum depth of approximately 12-feet below
the existing ground.surface (bgs) at the approximate locations shown in Figure 2A. Our
current supplementary study included a recent site reconnaissance visit and additional
borings advanced along the proposed temporary shoring wall location along the steep
slopes on the . western property 'boundary. Along with boring logs for these current
explorations, we have also included copies of the exploration logs for the previous test
pits with this letter, for convenience. The following paragraphs describe the procedures
associated with the field explorations and field tests that were conducted for this
supplementary investigation.
Auger Boting Procedures
.The exploratory borings were advanced with a hollow -stem auger on October 25 and
29, 2007,' using a limited access, track -mounted drill rig and portable acker drill rig
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 2 of 13 November 21, 2007

operated by an independent drilling firm working under subcontract to Kleinfelder. A
geotechnical engineer from our firm continuously observed the borings, logged the
subsurface conditions, and collected representative soil samples. All samples were
stored in sealed plastic jars and later transported to our laboratory for further visual
examination and testing. After each boring was completed, the borehole was backfilled
with a mixture of bentonite chips and soil cuttings.
12- or 5-foot depth
Throughout the drilling operation, soil samples were obtained at 2/
intervals by means of the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) per ASTM:D-1586. This
testing and sampling procedure consists of driving a standard 2-inch outside diameter
steel split -spoon sampler 18 inches into the soil with a 140-pound hammer free-f.alling
30 inche I s.. The number of blows required to drive the sampler through each 6-inch
interval is counted, and the total number of blows struck during the final * 12 inches is
recorded as. the Standard Penetration Resistance, or "SPT blow count." If a total of 50
blows are struck within any 6-inch interval, the driving is stopped and the blow count is
recorded as 50 blows for the actual penetration distance. The resulting Standard
Penetration Resistance values indicate the relative density of granular soils and the
relative consistency of cohesive soils.
The boring logs attached to this letter . describe the vertical sequence of soils and
materials encountered in each boring, based primarily on our field class ificatio, ns and
supported by our subsequent laboratory examination and testing. Where a soil contact
was observed -to be gradational, our logs indicate the average contact depth. Where a
soil type changed between sample intervals, we inferred the contact depth. Our logs
also graphically indicate the blow count, sample type, sample number, and approximate
depth of each soil sample obtained from the borings, as well i as any laboratory tests
performed on these soil samples. If any groundwater was encountered in a borehole,
the approximate groundwater depth is depicted on the boring log. Groundwater depth
estimates are typically based on the moisture. content of soil samples, the wetted height
on the drilling rods, and the water level measured in the borehole after the auger has
been extracted.
Laboratory Testing
As a part of our geotechnical evaluation, we performed a series of Grain Size Analyses,
and Moisture Content Detenninati6ns. The results of these laboratory tests are
presented in the enclosed laboratory test reports and on the exploration logs. A general
grain size analysis indicates the range of'soil particle diameters included in a particular

sample, While a 200 wash indicates how much fines (silt and clay sized particles) that is
contained in a sample. These grain size laboratory tests were performed in general
accordance with ASTIVI:D-4�2 and ASTM:C-1 17. Moistu re content determinations wer e
completed in general accordance with ASTIVI:D-2216. The results of these laboratory
tests were used to develop the soil classifications shown on the exploration logs and
determine whether specific on -site soils will be suitable for r&-use, as structural fill.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Based on our previous site investigations, the site soils were generally disclosed in our
test pit explorations to consist of medium dense sand and gravel with trace amounts of
silt (Recessional Outwash), overlying dense to very dense, silty sand with varying
amounts of gravel (Glacial Till) on the slope areas, and.very dense sand with varying
amounts of gravel and silt (Advance Outwash) within the low-lying areas of the site. No
groundwater was revealed n our previous explorations. Throughout the year,
groundwater levels would likely fluctuate in response to changing precipitation patterns,
off -site construction activities, and changes in site utilization., The deeper borings
advanced as a part of our current supplementary study generally confirmed these
subsurface conditions. It should be noted that our exploration along 232nd Street also
confirmed the presence of very dense Glacial Till soils in this area of the site, where
temporary sloping of excavation cuts are planned.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on our findings and the results of our supplemental analyses, the project is
considered feasible from a geotechnical standpoint, provided that the recommendations
of this supplementary letter are implemented. For the planned cuts within the
southwestern portion of the site (west side of mixed use building), we anticipate that
temporary sloping may be used, provided that easements can be obtained and the
sections adjacent to the existing neighboring structures are supported by a soldier pile
and lagging shoring wall system, to limit the risk of undermining the adjacent structures.
We anticipate that soldier pile and lagging shoring walls will be required. to shore the
vertical cuts (up to about 18 feet high) adjacent to the existing neighboring structures
west of the planned mixed use.building. The following text sections of this report
present our specific geotechnical conclusions . and recommendations concerning
temporary shoring walls, spread footings, permanent walls, and drainage systems.

Temporary Excavation Slope Cuts
Temporary excavations should be performed in accordance with current federal, state
and/or local regulations. Temporary excavations in excess of 4 feet vertical height must
be sloped or supported in accordance with Part N of Washington Administrative Code
(WAC) 296-155. For planning purposes, recommend the following maximum cut slope
inclinations, based on the soil layers encountered within our explorations and the
corresponding OSHA Soil Type classifications:
Maximum
Soil Type Inclination
Medium Dense to Dense Sand with Gravel (Type B Soils) 1H:1V
Dense to Very Dense Glacial Till (Type A Soils) %H:1V
It should be noted that appropriate inclinations will ultimately depend on the actual soil
and groundwater seepage conditions exposed in the cuts at the time of construction. It
is the sole responsibility of the contractor to ensure that the excavation is properly
sloped or braced for worker protection. Furthermore, it should be noted that the cut
slope incli nation of any overlying soil layer should not be steeper than the underlying
soil layer, according to OSHA guidelines. In addition to proper sloping, the excavation
cuts should be draped with plastic sheeting for the duration of the excavation to
minimize surface erosion and raveling. Excavations made below.the water. table will
likely require dewaterin g and/or shoring.
Temporary Shoring Walls
Te m*porary shoring walls up to roughly 18-feet high will be required to support the
planned perimeter cuts along the sloping ground areas along the western property. In
our opinion, a conventional, cantilever or tieback soldier pile and lagging wall would be
well -suited for this purpose. A cantilever, soldier pile shoring wall typically consists of
wood lagging placed between soldier piles installed in pre-augered holes backfilled with
lean mix or structural concrete to a typical depth below the excavation base of about 1.5
times the wall height above grade. The practical and economical vertical height limit for
a cantilevered (unsupported by soil anchors) soldier -pile wall is typically on the order of
15 feet. Where the wall exceeds this practical cantilever height limit, soil tieback
anchors are typically installed through the soldier piles to provide the necessary lateral
support.and limit lateral deflections of the wall system; such tiebacks may be installed in
a single row or in a multiple row configuration. A slightly different lateral soil pressure.
analysis is required for each of these different wall configurations, as outlined

subsequently. It should be noted that special design considerations will be required to
limit wall deflection and potential ground settlement where the existing adjacent
buildings are located directly on or close to the planned basement cuts. To minimize
the risk of building damage, we recommend that these portions of the shoring. wall be
designed for the horizontal surcharge resulting from such nearby footing loads, or that
the existing footing elements on these buildings be directly underpinned by the soldier
pile wall system. The following recommendations are provided for design of soldier pile
and lagging shoring walls.
Pile Embedment: All soldier piles should have sufficient embedment below the final
excavation level to provide adequate "kick -out" resistance to horizontal loads. We
recommend a minimum embedment of 10 feet below the excavation base. However,
deeper embedment might be needed to develop adequate vertical capacity or passive
resistance at specific locations, based on a structural analysis.
Drilling Conditions: Based on our explorations, we predict that the soldier pile and grout
tieback holes will encounter dense to very dense silty gravelly sand (glacial till) or dense
to very dense sand with gravel/silt (Advance Outwash). I Loose to medium dense
overburden soils can likely be drilled without difficulties, using a conventional auger,
whereas the underlying very dense glacial till or advance outwash soils may yield
slower drilling rates. Although none of our explorations encountered cobbles or
boulders, it should be realized that such obstructions . can exist at random locations
within the native deposits. Rubble could also be present within the upper fill soils.
Applied Loads: Soldier piles should be designed to resist various applied loads, which
can be classified as static pressures, surcharge pressures, seismic pressures, and
hydrostatic pressures. Our recommended design pressures are presented graphically
on the enclosed Cantilever and Tieback Shoring Wall Diagrams (Figu re 3) and are
discussed in the following paragraphs.
Static Pres sures: For tieback shoring walls having two or more rows of tiebacks,
we generally recommend using an apparent lateral earth pressure with a
trapezoidal distribution, as shown on Figure 3. Based on the site soils, we
recommend using a peak earth pressure of 25H pounds per square foot (psf)l,
where H is equal tothe height of excavation in feet, for the uniform portion of this
trapezoidal distribution. This static earth pressure should be applied over the
soldier pile spacing width from the top of the pile downward to the base of
88601/SEA7L242.doc Page 6 of 13 November 21, 2007

I
excavation. Below this level, an active earth pressure of 35 pounds per cubic
foot (pcf), modeled as a fluid unit weight, should be applied over the diameter of
the pile only, as shown on Figure 3. Cantilever soldier pile shoring walls (without
tiebacks) are designed for the triangular active earth pressure diagram both
above and below the base of'excavation level, in lieu of apparent lateral earth
pressures, as noted on Figure 3.
Surcharge Pressures: Lateral earth pressures acting on the soldier piles should
be increased to account for any surcharge loadings from traffic, construction
equipment,' material stockpiles, or structures that are located within a horizontal
distance equal to the wall height. For simplicity, a traffic surcharge can be
modeled as a uniform lateral pressure of 75 psf acting over the upper 6 feet of
wall, as shown on Figure 3.
Seismic Pressures: Temporary shoring walls need not be designed for seismic
loads, given the relatively short duration of construction excavation and the
addition'�l load capacity "built into" the static safety factor for the wall. However, if
the shoring wall is designed in combination with a permanent wall, we
recommend that the lateral earth pressures be increased to account for seismic
loads. These seismic pressures. act over the entire back of the wall and vary with
the backslope inclination, the seismic acceleration, and the wall height. For
permanent walls designed for yielding conditions (allowing a wall rotation of
0.001 to 0.002 times the wall height), we recommend using a uniform horizontal
seismic loading of 4H psf, based on the active state lateral earth pressure.
Conversely, a non -yielding (restrained) permanent wall should be designed to
withstand a uniform horizontal ' seismic loading of 12H psf, based on the at -rest
state lateral earth pressure. The recommended seismic surcharge pressure
distribution is presented graphically on Figure 3.
Hydmstatic Pressures: If groundwater is allowed to saturate the soils behind the
below -grade perimeter walls, hydrostatic pressures will act against the walls. At
this site, however, we are assuming that the shoring walls will be provided with a
geocomposite drainage mat system and that an under -slab drainage system will
be installed to provide a permanent dewatering system for the structure. We
therefore do not expect that hydrostatic pressures will develop.

I
Resistinq Forces: Lateral resistance can be computed by using an appropriate
allowable passive earth pressure acting over the embedded portion of each soldier pile,
neglecting the upper 2 feet. The trapezoidal distribution of this allowable passive
pressure can be modeled as shown on Figure 3. This passive pressure should be
applied over a lateral distance equal to the pile spacing or twice the pile diameter,
whichever is less. For a level excavation base, we recommend using an allowable
passive earth pressure of 375 pcf for the very dense advance outwash sand with gravel,
modeled as a fluid unit weight, in the static design case; in the seismic case we
recommend using an allowable passive fluid pressure of 500 pcf, as shown on Figure 3.
These allowable passive e arth pressures incorporate a safety factor of 1.5 and 1.1 for
the static and seismic case, respectively.
Pile Capacities and Deflections* Appropriate side -friction and end -bearing capacities
can be used to determine total vertical capacities of the soldier piles that may be
required to resist, underpinning loads or the vertical component of the tieback loads. To
estimate lateral deflections of the soldier piles, we recommend using appropriate
subgrade reaction muduli., For the embedded portion of a soldier pile bearing within the
native, very dense g ' lacial till soils or advance outwash sands, our recommended
allowable design values are shown on the enclosed Figure 3 and are summarized
below. . The allowable values for side friction and end bearing incorporate safety factors
of 1.5 and 2.0 for tem porary and permanent conditions, respectively.

Our recommendations regarding lagging design and installation are presented below.
Wood Lagging Materials: Wood lagging is typically installed in between all soldier piles
to reduce the potential for soil failure, loss of ground, and hazardous working conditions.
In our opinion, either conventional wooden timbers or reinforced shotcrete could be

utilized as lagging at the site. For permanent applications, we recommend that all
wooden timber lagging be pressure -treated.
Lateral Pre$sures on Wood Lagging: Due to soil arching effects, temporary lagging that
s pans 8 feet or less need be designed for only 25 percent of the lateral earth pressure
previously recommended for soldier pile design. Permanent lagging, on the other hand,
should be designed for 50 percent of this same lateral earth pressure.
Wood Lagging Backfill:.We recommend that any voids greater than 1-inch behind the
lagging be backfilled, but the backfill material should not be allowed to prevent
g roundwater flow. If inadequate drainage is provided'behind the lagging, hydrostatic
pressure will develop on the wall. Pea gravel would provide an effective lagging backfill,
material to promote adequate drainage, whereas concrete, cdf, or other impermeable
materials are not recommended. The void spaces should be backfilled progressively as
the excavation proceeds.
Tieback Conflicts and Easements: Because tiebacks typically extend about 30 to 60 feet
behind the excavation face, conflicts with underground utilities, as well as with adjacent
structures and foundations, often arise. The project structural engineer should carefully
consider the locations of such obstructions when, laying out all tiebacks. Easements
might be required for any tiebacks that extend onto private properties and right-of-way
areas beyond the site property boundaries. It should also be realized that the City of
Seattle does not typically allow permanent tiebacks to encroach on their roadway right-
of-way limits.
Tieback No -Load Zone: The anchor portion of all tiebacks must be located a sufficient
distance behind the retained excavation face to develop resistance within a stable soil
mass. We recommend that the anchorage be obtained behind a "no-load zone" defined
by a plane projected upward at a 60-degree angle from the base of the excavation and
set back from the excavation face a horizontal distance equal to 25 percent of the face
height, as shown on Figure 3.
Tieback Anchor Length and Spacinq: The anchor portion of the tieback (that portion
behind the no-load zone) should have a minimum length of 10 feet and should be
located at least 10 feet below the ground surface, as shown on Figure 3. To avoid
interactions between adjacent tiebacks, we recommend that a clear spacing of at least 5
feet be maintained along the anchor zones.

Estimated Tieback Adhesion: If properly grouted, we tentatively estimate that allowable
concrete/soil adhesion values listed in the table below (and shown on Figure 3) for the
various site soil layers may be used for the anchor portion of a tieback. These
allowable adhesion values incorporate a safety factor of 1.1 and 1.5 for the temporary
and perma ' nent conditions, respectively. It should be noted, however, that the actual
design values will depend on the installation method and should be confirmed by load -
testing all tiebacks in the field.

Tieback Load Testing: We recommend that all tiebacks be subjected to a
comprehensive testing program that will verify the integrity of individual tiebacks and
provide information regarding their long-term creep characteristics. Two separate types
of tests are appropriate for. temporary tiebacks:. 200-percent performance tests on a
limited number of tiebacks (within each different soil unit), and 133-percent proof tests
on each remaining tieback anchor. For permanent tiebacks, we also recommend that
300-percent verifi cation tests be performed. Kleinfelder can supply details for
conducting these tests, upon request.
Wall Deflection and Settlement Monitoring: We recommend that the top -of -wall
horizontal deflection and potential vertical settlement of the ground surface behind the
wall be monitored by means of standard surveying techniques, in order to assess the
performance of the shoring wall during construction. Settlement monitoring should
include establishing settlement bench marks on the existing ground sur face behind the
wall. Top -of -wall horizonta I deflections should be monitored along the wall at both ends,
at the mid -point, and every 20 feet in between. These survey points should be
monitored immedia tely after soldier pile installation, regularly during excavation, and on

a weekly basis following complete excavation. We recommend that Kleinfelder be
allowed to review this survey monitoring data as soon as it becomes available.
Construction Monitoring: Because shoring' walls require specialized installation and
earthwork techniques to maintain stable conditions during and after construction, we
strongly recommend that an Kleinfelder representative be retained to continuously
monitor the installation of all soldier piles, wood lagging, and tiebacks. This monitoring
would include observation and documentation of installation procedures, construction
materials, drilling conditions, soil conditions, pile plumbness, as well as tieback load
testing and confirmation of lock -off loads.
