Pile Review for Structural Compliance
Date: June 14th, 2023
Project Name: Foundation Stabilization/Lift — Edmonds Project Number: S220301-4XR
Project Location: 10128 240th PI SW, Edmonds, WA 98020
Client's Name: R&R Foundation Specialist, LLC
To Whom It May Concern:
The purpose of this letter is to confirm pile installation and capacity compliance with the structural re-
quirements specified in the L120 Structural Calculation Package and Structural Site Plan dated March 18th
2022.
During the week of June 14th, 2022, nine (9) helical piles were installed by R&R Foundation Specialists
(R&R) to stabilize areas of the single-family residence located at 10128 240th PI SW, Edmonds, WA 98020.
To the knowledge of L120, these piles were installed by R&R certified installers in accordance with the cited
structural package, ESR-3750. Please refer to the attached drive log and photographs provided by R&R.
The helical piles were installed with maximum pile spacing of 8'-0" on -center, the typical minimum required
vertical capacity as determined by L120 is shown in the table below. These demand requirements are as
determined and specified in L120's structural calculation package cited above.

Pile capacities for the helical piles have been calculated using a Digga MM-10K drive head with a torque
correlation factor, Kt, of 9 as prescribed in ESR-3750. A chart showing the resulting capacities is attached
to this letter. Per the attached document, an Ideal Foundation Systems 2-7/8" diameter helical pile installed
to a minimum pressure of 2,000 psi results in a maximum allowable capacity of 31.3 kips including a safety
factor of 2.
2 of 5
The results are summarized below:
Helical Piles #1-#4:
Maximum Demand (allowable): 9.0 kips/pile
Available Capacity (allowable): 31.3 kips/pile
Helical Piles #5-#7:
Maximum Demand (allowable): 6.0 kips/pile
Available Capacity (allowable): 31.3 kips/pile
Helical Piles #8-#9:
Maximum Demand (allowable): 12.0 kips/pile
Available Capacity (allowable): 31.3 kips/pile
By inspection, the pile capacities of the installed piles exceed the maximum loading demand as determined
by L120's analysis. Therefore, the installed piles comply with the structural design/demand.
Please contact us if you have any questions.

i.) DIGGA 10K Drive Head differential pressure display to torque output has been pulled from the attached conversion charts provided by DIGGA.
ii.) Per Table 5A of ESR-3750, the maximum installation torque rating of a 2-7/8"0 helical pile (0.203-inch wall thickness) is 8,300 ft'Ibs. Per Ideal Manufacturing, Inc., the
maximum installation torque rating of a 2-7/8"0 helical pile (0.203-inch wall thickness) is 8,000 ft'Ibs. Final installation torque shall not exceed the lesser of these limiting values.
iii.) Piles shall reach a torque that correlates with an allowable capacity that meets or exceeds the maximum allowable load demand as listed in the structural package, but shall not
exceed the maximum allowable capacity for any part of the pile assembly.
iv.) Refer to ESR-3750 and Ideal Manufacturing, Inc. documents for additional information and requirements.
v.) Definitions per ESR-3750:
T = Final Installation torque in ft'Ibs; the last torque reading taken during pile installation, using, for example, the torque reading instruments connected
to the installation equipment.
K, = Torque correlation factor per ESR-3750
P. = Ultimate axial compressive capacity (in kips) of helical pile
P.= Allowable axial compressive capacity (in kips) of helical pile
vi.) For torque readings between those listed, use the following equation to determine the allowable capacity: P. = (T-IQ/2
vii.) 1 kip = 1,000 Ibs
