Weaver Consultants Group was asked to <br />inspect and provide their findings. Under their direction, the extent of the debris and condition of the soils in <br />the building area were determined. The attached letter from Weaver Consultants summarizes the site <br />conditions and their recommendations. In accordance with these recommendations, we propose to replace <br />the unsuitable soils including the buried 6" concrete slab in the approximate south half of the building and <br />the two (2) south overhead door aprons with compacted aggregate fill material; and to change the foundation <br />forming system from "earth -formed" to "regular -formed" due to the sloughing of the sides of the excavations <br />during the compacting process of the new aggregate fill material in the south half of the building and the in - <br />place but loose soils in the north half of the building. The costs to perform this work are as follows: <br />Remove concrete rubble and other unsuitable materials: 337 CY @ $19.94/CY = .................. $ 6,720.00. <br />Furnish, place and compact suitable fill: 337 CY @ $29.34/CY =...................................... $ 9,888.00. <br />Break and remove buried 6" thick concrete slab under building: 187 SY @ $16.37/SY = .......... $ 3,061.00. <br />Furnish, place and compact suitable fill: 50 CY @ $29.34/CY =....................................... $ 1,467.00. <br />Labor for forming only of footings and grade beams: 2,040 SF @ $7.255/SF = ..................... $14,800.00. <br />Material for forming only footings and grade beams: 2,040 SF @ $1.471/SF = ..................... 3 000.00. <br />Total............................................................................................................ $38,936.00. <br />We appreciate this opportunity to serve you and look forward to hearing from you.
