Stephens Barrios 605 Delaney Ave. Suite - C Orlando, FL. 32801 Re: Geotechnical Exploration Report Family Dollar Fort Pierce 6 Avenue D ort Pierce, FL 34947 BME Project No. 16-020 Dear Mr. Barrios: OL ANNE® BY St. Lucie County RAUG ., 4 REC'D Blue Marlin Engineering (BME) submits this Report in fulfillment of the scope of services described in our proposal dated March 1, 2016. You authorized us to proceed with our work on this project by returning our signed proposal. This Report describes our understanding of the project and presents our evaluations. We have provided geotechnical engineering recommendations for general site preparation, design of the building foundations, pavements and stormwater ponds. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY For this Report, the conditions at this site were explored using 11 standard penetration test (SPT) borings. Based on the furnished site survey the existing site grades where our borings were performed are on the order of +20 to +22 feet NAVD. Groundwater levels were encountered in the borings at an average depth of 7 feet below the existing ground surface (corresponding elevation on the order of+14 to+16 NAVD). The following generalized subsurface conditions were encountered: Laver 1: A 5 - foot layer of fine to slightly silty Sand (SP, SP-SMI Laver 2: A 10(+) - foot layer of slightly silty to silty Sand (SP-SM, SM) Following the recommendations provided in this Report, it appears that the proposed development is viable at this site. The engineering evaluations performed for this project indicate the following: www:BlueMarlinEngineering.cam Blue Marlin Engineering, LLC • 102 Drennen Road, Suite B-10 " Orlando, F132806 Phone: 407-217-4464 • Fax: (321) 710-2483 Mr. Carlos Barrios, P.E.

PROJECT INFORMATION We understand that you are planning a new Family Dollar Store located a 3562 A enue D`in Ft. Pierce, Florida. Appended drawing A-1 shows a Vicinity Map of the subject site. The new single -story Family Dollar building will have a square footage 8;247. T e new construction will also feature new pavement areas and a stormwater pond. We have assumed the maximum loads are assumed to be on the order of 100 kips for columns, 4 kips per lineal feet for walls, and 250 psf for floors. PURPOSE The purpose of our services on this project was to explore the shallow subsurface conditions at the site and to use the information obtained to provide geotechnical engineering recommendations for the site preparation and design of the building foundations, pavements, and stormwater ponds. NRCS SOIL SURVEY REVIEW The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Soil Survey for St. Lucie County, Florida was reviewed to obtain near surface soils and groundwater information at the subject site. The Soil Survey indicates that this property is located in Section 8, Township 35 South, and Range 40 East. Where the project site falls, the site is predominantly covered with Tantile and Pomona sands (44) and Ankona and Farmton sands (2). A soil survey map is shown on appended drawing A-2 and summarized in Table 1 below. 6N E' NGINEERING i r Mr. Carlos Barrios, P.E.

The soils are generally appropriate for support of the proposed construction. The NRCS predicts seasonal high groundwater levels within the site limits to be within 0 to 1 foot below existing site grades. Our field exploration program revealed groundwater conditions similar to those predicted by the NRCS (discussion in the Subsurface Conditions section of this report). Please note information contained in the NRCS Soil Survey is very general. It may not, therefore, be reflective of actual soil and groundwater conditions. The information obtained from the soil borings provides a better characterization of actual site subsurface conditions. FIELD TESTS The subsurface conditions were explored with a totalof 11 soil borings. Borings were completed within the proposed development area. The approximate test locations are shown in the appended Drawing No. 3. The SOT borings were advanced to depths of 15 to 20 feet below existing site grades. The standard penetration test was used as the investigative tool within these borings. Penetration tests were performed in substantial accordance with ASTM Procedure D 1586, "Penetration Test and Split -Barrel Sampling of Soils." This test procedure drives a 1.4-inch I.D. split -tube sampler into the soil profile using a 140-pound hammer falling 30 inches. The number of blows required to drive the sampler the second and third 6-inch increments is the soil N-value,in blows per foot, and is an indication of soil strength. The soil samples recovered from the soil borings were classified and stratified by a geotechnical engineer. B�N ENGINEERING Mr. Carlos Barrios, P.E. Stephens Barrios March 31, 2016 Page 4 The results of the classification and stratification for each boring are shown in the appended Records of Test Boring. It should be noted that soil conditions may vary between the strata interfaces which are shown. The soil boring data reflects information from a specific test location only. SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS Subsurface Profile - In general, the borings disclosed reasonably consistent subsurface conditions across the site. The borings performed at this site revealed a subsurface profile that consisted of a series of fine sands with varying amounts of silt through boring termination depths. Standard Penetration Testing (SPT) indicates that the relative density of the soils to be loose to medium dense with depth. Our soil classification is based on the material encountered in widely spaced borings. Soils encountered during the construction process may vary significant across the site and from what is shown in our soil borings. If different subsurface conditions are encountered at the time of construction, BME should be contacted immediately to evaluate the conditions encountered. Groundwater -The groundwater table depth was monitored during drilling operations. However, once the use of driller's mud was introduced, accurate readings can be difficult to obtain. Groundwater levels were encountered in the borings at an average depth of 7 feet below the existing ground surface (corresponding elevation on the order of+14 to+16 NAVD). We estimated seasonal high groundwater tables to be 3 to 4 feet higher than what we encountered in the soil borings (+17 to +20 ft NAVD). This is consistent to what the NRCS predicts seasonal high groundwater levels to be, 0 to 1 foot below the existing site grades. The seasonal high groundwater level is affected by a number of factors. Such as the drainage characteristics of the soils, the land surface elevations, relief points, and distance to relief points. Groundwater levels will vary as a result of seasonal and storm events and with changes in subsurface conditions between boring locations. It is possible for groundwater levels to be higher or lower than the levels being reported. In order to better define the groundwater conditions at this site, longer term monitoring in cased holes or piezometers would be required. 6N NGINEEIIING Mr. Carlos Barrios, P.E. March 31, 2016 Stephens Barrios Page 5 LABORATORY TESTS In order to aid us in the soil classification process, selected samples retrieved from the borings were tested for moisture content and fines content. Additionally, bulk samples were collected in the field for the purpose of permeability testing. Permeability Testing -The ability of water to flow through a soil is referred to as the soil's . permeability. Constant head permeability tests were performed on selected bulk samples. The samples were chosen from the area where the stormwater pond is planned. In a constant head test, water is generally allowed to flow into the soil sample until the sample is apparently saturated. Once saturated, the water flow is measured. The samples were chosen from the area where the stormwater pond is planned. The hydraulic conductivity of the soil, or coefficient of permeability (K), was calculated for the corresponding test. Specifically, the vertical permeability (K) of the soil was calculated and reported herein. For design purposes, the coefficient of horizontal permeability (Kh) is usually taken as 1.5 to 2 times greater than the vertical rate (K ). The results of the permeability testing are summarized in Table 2. Table 2 Permeability Laboratory Data Results Within the depth of our exploration; we did not encounter a confining soil layer. I recommend you consider the depth of 15 feet as the confining layer for the stormwater system design. I also recommend you use a fillabie porosity (n) of 25 percent.

March 31, 2016 Stephens Barrios Page 6 , EVALUATION Discussion -A foundation must meet three requirements, for successful design and construction: bearing capacity, settlement, and environmental factors. Shallow foundations are initially considered because of their relative economy. If shallow foundations do not meet allowable design requirements for bearing capacity, settlement and environmental factors, then deep foundations (piles, shafts, etc.) or soil improvement are considered. The soil bearing capacity is the ability of a soil to support loads without plunging into the soil . profile. Bearing capacity failures are analogous to shear failures in structural design and are usually sudden and catastrophic. Shallow foundations are designed so that columns do not plunge into the soil profile. Analytical techniques for soil bearing capacity estimation generally apply to sands, clays and silts. In a cemented deposit or rock formation, bearing capacity is evaluated using techniques such as factor of safety against punching shear failure, factor of safety against beam tension failure, and factor of safety against crushing. Foundation allowable bearing pressures and bearing elevations must be adjusted so as to provide -margins of safety against bearing capacity failure. Another requirement of a shallow foundation is the ability of the structure to tolerate the predicted settlement. The following parameters are necessary in order to estimate settlement: footprint bearing pressure, stress reduction factor, thickness of each compressible underlying stratum, modulus of each stratum, and foundation dimensions. The allowable amount of settlement that a structure may tolerate is dependent on several factors including: uniformity of settlement, time rate of settlement, structural dimensions and properties of the structural materials. Generally, total or uniform settlement does not damage a structure but may affect drainage and utility connections. These can generally tolerate movements of several inches for building construction. -In contrast, differential settlement affects a structure's frame and is limited by the structural flexibility. The final requirement of a shallow foundation is to resist environmental factors such as so_ it freezing, soil swelling, hurricane scour, sinkholes, or long term degradation. Summary - It is our professional opinion that shallow foundations bearing on compacted insitu sands and/or compacted fill can be used to support the planned development for this site. If site preparation is properly performed as recommended in this Report, shallow foundations can be designed to use an allowable soil bearing pressure of 2.5 ksf. Shallow foundations supported on properly compacted insitu soils or engineered fill soils should result in total settlements of about 1 inch for column loads up to 300 kips and continuous footings loaded up to 8 kips per lineal foot. Differential settlements will be a result.of changes in applied load and . the variations in subsurface conditions. We estimate that differential settlement will be about ?BLUEN E'NGINEERING Mr. Carlos Barrios, P.E. Stephens Barrios March 31, 2016 Page 7 one-half the total settlement and occur over a distance of 30 feet. Since the materials encountered in our study are granular in nature, we expect settlements to occur coincidental with the application of structural dead load. RECOMMENDATIONS The recommendations provided below are based on the project information described in this Report, field test data, our evaluation as stated in this Report, and our past experience with foundation engineering in Florida. If project information or design concepts change, we should be advised of these changes in writing, and should be provided with an opportunity to review our recommendations as presented in this Report. Geotechnical Site Preparation 1. Geotechnical site preparation should consist of stripping all surficial vegetation, stumps, debris, organic topsoil, and any other deleterious materials from beneath the proposed development extending a minimum lateral distance of 5 feet outside the limits. 2. After stripping, the site should be grubbed or root -raked such that roots with a diameter greater than Y2 inch, stumps, or small roots in a dense state, are completely removed. Based on current ground cover, significant root concentrations are not expected to occur throughout the majority of site. The actual depth(s) of stripping and grubbing must be determined by visual observation and judgment during the earthwork operation by engineering personnel. 3. Prior to the placement of any new fill soils, the exposed subgrade soils should be proofrolled. The purposes of the proofrolling will be to detect unstable soils that yield when subjected to compaction and to densify the near surface sands. Fill compaction/proofrolling recommendations are given below. Fill soils should be placed with loose lift thicknesses of not more than 12 inches. Remove material that yield excessively during proofrolling and replace with fill selected and compacted as described in this Report. 4. Fill soils should consist of inorganic, non -plastic sand having less than 10% material by weight passing the no. 200 sieve. The moisture content of the fill soils should be within 2% of the optimum moisture content based on ASTM D 1557. All fill materials should be free of construction debris and organic materials such as roots and vegetation. 5. Fill compaction and proofrolling efforts should be implemented with a compactor with a minimum static at -drum weight of 10 tons. The areas of the site that will support proposed construction.should be proofrolled with several overlapping coverages of a heavy compactor. We recommend a minimum of 10 overlapping passes in each of two BLUE MARLIN E'NGINEERING Mr. Carlos Barrios, P.E. Stephens Barrios March 31, 2016 Page 8 perpendicular directions. Vibratory compaction is not recommended near existing structures. 6. Following the proofrolling of the exposed subgrade soils, a density equivalent of at least f the modified Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D 1557) should be achieved. Proofrolled areas should be compacted to a depth of at least 12 inches below the surface. Density tests should be performed on the compacted proofrolled soils. One in -place density test should be performed for each 2,500 square feet of proofrolled soils. 7. Once the subgrade compaction efforts are verified by testing, fill may be needed to raise site grades. Representative samples of the fill soils should be collected for classification and compaction testing. The maximum dry density as indicated by ASTM D 1557, optimum moisture content, and percent by weight passing a no. 200 sieve should be determined. These tests are needed for quality control of the compacted soils 8. All structural fill should be placed in loose lift thicknesses of not more than 12 inches. Each lift should be compacted to at least 95% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D 1557). The filling and compaction operations should continue in 12 inch lifts until the desired elevation is achieved. Density tests should be performed on the compacted fill soils. One test should be performed for each 12 inch lift and 2,500 square feet of fill soils. 9. The Geotechnical Engineer should be involved during all earthwork activities to verify that procedures and results are as specified and as anticipated. Shallow Foundations 1. Shallow foundations can be used for support of the proposed building construction. Shallow foundation construction should start upon completion of all geotechnical site preparation and fill placement activities. 2. Shallow foundations should be designed using an average soil bearing pressure of 2.5 ksf. 3. Shallow foundations should be constructed as deep as possible. Shallow foundations should be designed with a minimum depth of embedment (below adjacent finished grade) of 18 inches. 4. In order to prevent localized shear failure of the bearing soils, isolated and continuous footings should have minimum footing widths of 24 and 18 inches, respectively. 5. Excavate the foundations to the proposed bottom of footing elevations and verify the in -place compaction for a depth of 2 feet below the footing bottoms. Loosened bearing 6LN E'NGINEERING Mr. Carlos Barrios, P.E. Stephens Barrios March 31, 2016 Page 9 soils should be re -compacted prior to placement of reinforcing steel. Compact the soils at the bottom of the excavations to at least 95% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D-1557) for a depth of 2 feet below the bottom of the footings. Foundation excavation bottoms should be level or suitably benched, and free of any loose soils that have been disturbed by seepage or the construction process. 6. We recommend a test location at each isolated footing and for every 100 feet of continuous footing. Shallow foundation construction should occur in the dry. 7. Foundation excavations should be cut to final grade and footings constructed as soon as possible to minimize potential damage to bearing soils as result of exposure to the environment. 8. Compact fill placed in utility trenches to the specifications stated above, exceptthat within paved areas, the compaction requirement should be 98%ofa modified proctor. However, in restricted working areas, where use of a large roller is not feasible, compact fill with lightweight, hand -guided compaction equipment and limit lift thickness to a maximum of 6 inches. 9. The Geotechnical Engineer, who is familiar with the foundation design and construction assumptions as well as the intent of the geotechnical recommendations, should observe the excavations for all shallow foundations and be involved with the field geotechnical observations during construction. Pavement Subgrade Preparation 1. Prepare pavement areas in accordance with the specifications stated above. 2. Stabilizing material will likely be necessary for the construction of asphalt pavement subgrades. Stabilization of subgrade soils beneath concrete pavements (if any) is generally not required. 3. A minimum separation of 12 inches between the bottom of the pavement subgrade or concrete pavement and the anticipated seasonal high groundwater table should be maintained at all times. 4. Compact 12 inch subgrade beneath the base to a minimum of 98% of ASTM D-1557 maximum dry density. A minimum frequency of one in -place density test for each 5,000 square feet of area should be used. 5. We recommend the following minimum pavement sections. EBN NGINEERING Mr. Carlos Barrios, P.E. Stephens Barrios March 31, 2016 Page 10 Heavy- Duty Asphalt Section (Parking Areas / Entrance Drives / Through Lanesl • 2 inches Type S-1 Asphalt • 10 inches Limerock Base Course (LBR = 100) • 12 inches of well -draining stabilized subgrade (LBR = 40). • Stabilization to consist of coarse admixtures such as limerock screenings, recycled concrete or crushed shells. Heavy -Duty Concrete Section (Loading Areas) • 6 inch concrete pavement (with a 28 day compressive strength of 4,000 psi) • Subgrade beneath concrete pavement should be well -draining fine sand/and or fine sand with silt. • Subgrade should be compacted to a minimum 98% of the soil's modified Proctor to a depth of at least 24 inches. • Expansion joints should be placed at normal spacing for the recommended thickness of concrete. Joints should be orientated to provide a square pattern. 6. The project Civil Engineer should provide pavement design based on the appropriate design criteria and the soil and groundwater conditions noted in this Report. Ground Floor Slab 1. Slab -on -grade construction may be used for this project following the recommended geotechnical site preparation. Slab -on -grade construction should occur in the dry. 2. Construction joints should be provided at column and wall interfaces, and throughout the slab, to minimize the potential for cracking at these locations. 3. Compact the subgrade beneath the slab to a minimum of 95% of ASTM D-1557 maximum dry density for a depth of 12 inches. In -place density testing should be performed at an interval of one test per 2,500 square feet of slab as previously recommended in this Report. Temporary Excavations 1. Contractor should be aware that slope height, slope inclination, and excavations depths (including utility trench excavations) should not exceed those specified in local, state, or federal safety regulations (OSHA Health and Safety Standards for Excavations, 29 CRF Part 1926). 2. If any excavation is extended to a depth of more than 20 feet, OSHA requires that the side slopes of such excavation be designed by a Professional Engineer registered in the State of Florida. ?BLUEN NGINEERING Mr. Carlos Barrios, P.E.
