Foundation Considerations Sample Clauses

Foundation Considerations. Based on the results of the investigation, conditions suitable for support of the proposed structure were available at all borehole locations within or close to the proposed building envelope. The proposed structure can be supported on conventional spread and strip footings or augered piers founded at depths of 1.0 to 2.0 m (~Elevation 265.3 to 269.5 m) below all fill on the undisturbed native clayey silt till. The footings can be designed for a geotechnical reaction at Serviceability Limit States (SLS) of 300 kPa and factored geotechnical resistance of 450 kPa at Ultimate Limit States (ULS), subject to geotechnical inspection during construction. Typically, the piers can be cleaned by the augers. The final cleaning of the bases can then be auger cleaned by mixing the loose materials at the base of the piers with 0.3 to 0.5 m thick concrete. The mixture should then be removed. During the installation of piers, a temporary steel liner will have to be installed to prevent caving of the drilled hole and to seal off any water which may be perched in the water bearing seams above the founding levels. A positive head of concrete inside the liner with respect to any exterior groundwater levels must be maintained during withdrawal of the liner. A 150 mm slump concrete is recommended for use to prevent the concrete from having a honeycombed structure and to avoid bridging in the liner upon its withdrawal. The following Table 2 shows the highest elevations at the borehole locations where the afore mentioned bearing values in the native soils can be applied.

General guidelines and requirements for foundation support on engineered fill are shown on Appendix A. The engineered fill construction shoul...

The study can only be conducted at study sites where IRB/IEC approval has been obtained. The protocol, informed consent form, Investigator’s Brochure, advertisements (if applicable), and all other forms of information given to subjects will be provided to the IRB/IEC by the Investigator. In addition, reports on the progress of the study will be submitted to the IRB/IEC by the Investigator at the appropriate intervals.

  • First Consideration The Employer agrees that when a vacancy occurs or a new position is created at the worksite which is within the Union bargaining unit, the Employer shall give its employees, provided there are no employees currently on lay-off, first notice and first consideration in filling the vacancy or new position.
