1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF STUDY
This report presents the results of Yeh and Associates, Inc.’s (Yeh) geotechnical engineering
study and pavement thickness recommendations for the proposed Platte Avenue pavement
rehabilitation associated with the bridge over Sand Creek replacement Project in Colorado
Springs, Colorado. The project location is shown in Figure1 presented before Appendix A. The
purpose of this study is to explore and evaluate the existing pavement and subsurface
conditions at the site, and present engineering recommendations for use by HDR, Inc. and the
City of Colorado Springs in the design and construction of the pavement sections. Subsurface
exploration and engineering recommendations for the bridge foundations and retaining walls are
presented in a separate report (Dated March 20, 2019, YA Project No. 217-021).
Our scope of services included the following:
• Advancing 11 borings along the roadway alignments to obtain existing pavement
thickness and subgrade information. Borings P-1 to P-8 were advanced along East
Platte Avenue and P-9 to P-11 were advanced along Space Center Drive.
• Performing laboratory tests on representative soil samples collected during the
subsurface exploration to determine the engineering characteristics.
• Preparing a report that:
o Summarizes field and laboratory data
o Presents the results of geotechnical engineering analyses
o Provides recommendations for pavement thickness design
2 PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
Our understanding of the proposed construction is based on our discussions with the project
team and review of the FOR plans dated December 13, 2018. As part of the Platte Ave. over
Sand Creek bridge replacement project, approximately 1,000 feet of E. Platte Ave. and 400 feet
of Space Center Dr. will be slightly re-aligned and the pavement will be removed and
reconstructed. The proposed new pavement will be Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) pavement.
Depending on the final grade, the HMA may be constructed over an aggregate base course
(ABC), full depth reclaimed (FDR) subbase course, or existing Portland Cement Concrete
Pavement (PCCP). Traffic data used in our pavement thickness design was provided by HDR
and are presented in Appendix D.

3 GEOLOGICAL SETTING
The project area is located within the Young Alluvium Two (Qay2) and Middle Alluvium
Formation (Qam), and underlain by Pierre Shale Formation (Kp). The geological map of this
area is shown in Figure 2 presented before Appendix A. The Young Alluvium Two Formation
consists of poorly sorted sand, silty sand, minor pebble gravel, and several thin beds and lenses
of dark grayish brown to very dark grayish brown sediment. The Qay2 blankets large areas on
broad valley floors. Estimated thickness for Qay2 is 10 to 20 feet. The Middle Alluvium
Formation primarily consist of poorly sorted sand and subordinate amounts of gravel. This unit
underlies a terrace that is only slightly higher than Qay2. The estimated thickness for Qam is 20
to 50 feet. The Pierre Shale Formation is gray to dark-gray shale that weathers to brown and
olive green clay, lesser amounts of yellowish gray, medium to coarse grained sandstone. The
thickness in the quadrangle is about 5,000 feet. The encountered subsurface conditions in
general agrees with the geological descriptions.
4 FIELD EXPLORATION
4.1 Subsurface Exploration
Our subsurface exploration consisted of advancing 11 borings, borings P-1 to P-8 were
advanced along East Platte Ave. and Borings P-9 to P-11 were advanced along Space Center
Drive. The approximate boring locations are shown on Figure A-1, Boring Location Plan and
Existing Conditions in Appendix A. Vine Laboratories, Inc. under subcontract to Yeh, advanced
the borings with an ATV-mounted, CME 550 drill rig equipped with an automatic hammer with
an estimated energy transfer ratio of 75 percent. The drilling was performed with 4-inch outside
diameter (O.D.), continuous flight, solid stem augers. Prior to drilling, the pavement was cored
by Yeh using a 4-inch O.D. core barrel. Due to the thickness of the existing pavement, the
underlying PCCP pavement core in Boring P-4 could not be recovered.
Modified California (MC) tube, standard penetration test (SPT) split spoon samples, and bulk
samples of the cuttings were obtained by Yeh during the site exploration. The MC sampler has
an outside diameter of 2.5 inches, an interior diameter of 2.0 inches, is 12 inches in length, and
uses 4-inch long brass liners to collect samples. The SPT split spoon sampler has an outside
diameter of 2.0 inches, an interior diameter of 1.375 inches, and is 18 inches in length. The
samplers were seated at the bottom of the test hole, then advanced by a 140 pound automatic
Geotechnical Engineering Report YA Project No. 217-021 Platte Avenue over Sand Creek Pavements March 20, 2019

hammer falling a distance of 30 inches. The penetration resistance shown on the boring logs is
the total number of blows required to advance the sampler for the final two 6-inch intervals.
The subsurface conditions encountered in the borings were logged by a representative of Yeh.
The boring locations were located with and hand held GPS with 10-feet accuracy and site
features. The boring logs and legend to the logs are included in Appendix B. Photos of the
pavement cores are also presented in Appendix B.
4.2 Groundwater
Groundwater was not encountered within our borings at the time of our field exploration for the
pavement borings. Groundwater observations to document seasonal fluctuations is outside our
scope of services and was not completed. Groundwater conditions at the site may vary
considerably throughout the year and from year to year. Groundwater variations may be a
result of different seasons, following precipitation events, after site grading changes, changes in
local irrigation practices, and due to changes in surface and subsurface drainage characteristics
of the surrounding area.
5 LABORATORY TESTING
The samples collected during the subsurface exploration were transported to Yeh’s laboratory in
Colorado Springs, Colorado. They were examined and a program of laboratory testing was
developed to evaluate the engineering properties of the subsurface materials. Representative
soil samples were tested to evaluate their engineering properties, using the following tests:
• natural moisture content
• in-situ dry density
• grain size analysis
• Atterberg limits
• pH, resistivity, water soluble sulfates and chlorides
• Hveem stabilometer (R-value)
Results of the Atterberg limit tests and grain size analyses were used to classify the soils
according to AASHTO and the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) standards. Atterberg
limits tests were performed in general accordance with ASTM D4318, and the grain size
analyses were performed in general accordance with ASTM D421. Dry density tests and
Geotechnical Engineering Report YA Project No. 217-021 Platte Avenue over Sand Creek Pavements March 20, 2019
4
moisture content tests were performed in general accordance with ASTM D7263 and ASTM
D2216, respectively.
The test results are shown on the boring logs and are included in Appendix C. Following the
completion of the laboratory testing, the field descriptions were confirmed or modified as
necessary and boring logs were finalized.
6 SUBSURFACE AND SITE CONDITIONS
This section presents the subsurface and site conditions at the site based on our observations
and explorations. The subgrade soils consist of silty to clayey sand with varying amounts of
gravel and classify as A-1-b to A-2-4 soils in accordance with AASHTO classifications.
Laboratory tests indicate the sand soils have a fines content (passing the #200 sieve) ranging
from 10 percent to 34 percent. Atterberg limits tests indicate soils are generally non-plastic to
low plasticity with liquid limit of 23 to 28, and plastic index of 3 to 11.
The existing asphalt concrete (AC) pavement along Platte Ave. was 6.5 to 9.5 inches thick with
no base course observed. PCCP was encountered beneath the asphalt concrete in two borings
at the west and east end of the west bound lanes of Platte Ave. The AC pavement was
observed to be 5 to 6-inches think along space center drive with no base course. Table 6-1 and
6-2 present a summary of the pavement thickness encountered.

Based on visual observation, the existing pavement appears to be in good condition with little to
no obvious signs of distress. However, we understand the roadway was overlaid in 2016 or
early 2017 and is about 1 to 2 years old. Based on review of aerial photography (Google Earth
1999-2017), prior to the previous overlay, the pavement showed distress including moderate to
severe transverse and longitudinal cracks, and reflective cracks from the underlying PCCP on
the Platte Ave. westbound lanes.
7 CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS
Earthwork and grading will be required to achieve the final proposed grade of the roadways, we
anticipate maximum cut and fill thicknesses to be 3 feet. All excavations and embankment
grading should be performed in accordance with the Section 200 of the City of Colorado
Springs, City Engineering Division, Standard Specifications (2005) (COS Standards), or Section
203 of Colorado DOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction (2017) (CDOT
2017) where it is not covered by the COS Standards.
7.1 Site and Subgrade Preparation
Initial site preparation for areas to receive new pavement sections should begin by stripping all
organic and other deleterious materials, and removing existing structures. The exposed
subgrade should be free of all organics, topsoil, debris, and loose or soft material. Deleterious
materials should be removed from the site or stockpiled for future use in proposed landscaped
or non-structural areas.
Following initial site preparation exposed pavement subgrade should be scarified to a minimum
depth of 6 inches, moisture conditioned, and re-compacted in accordance with Section 205 of
the COS Standards. Based upon the subsurface conditions encountered, subgrade soils
exposed during construction are anticipated to be relatively stable. However, the stability of the
subgrade may be affected by drainage and precipitation. If unstable conditions are encountered
or develop during construction, stability may be improved by processing the subgrade soils or
with other ground improvement techniques.
Following subgrade preparation and prior to placement of structural fill or pavement sections,
visual inspection and proof rolling at the subgrade is required to identify potential areas where
the subgrade contains soft / loose soils. The proof roll should be in accordance with Section
205 of the COS Standards. Areas which deform non-uniformly under heavy wheel loads should
Geotechnical Engineering Report YA Project No. 217-021 Platte Avenue over Sand Creek Pavements March 20, 2019
6
either be moisture conditioned and re-compacted or excavated and replaced with structural fill.
The depth of over-excavation, if required, should be determined during construction. We
recommend that the proof rolling activities and visual inspection of the subgrade soils be
observed and evaluated by an experienced geotechnical engineer or engineer’s representative.
7.2 Fill Materials
Embankment fill should conform to Section 203 of the COS Standards and should be approved
by the City and the geotechnical engineer. On-site sandy soils are appropriate for use as
embankment fill. Import fill and onsite soils used as fill should be placed and compacted in
accordance with Section 205 of the COS Standards.
All fill materials should be placed in horizontal lifts that are 8-inches or less in loose thickness,
using equipment and procedures that will produce a uniform fill with the recommended moisture
contents and densities throughout the lift. The required percent of relative compaction and
moisture content for the embankment materials are presented in Section 205 of the COS
Standards.
7.3 Site Grading
All site excavation and embankment grading should conform to Section 200 of the COS
Standards.
Positive drainage should be provided during construction and maintained throughout the life of
the proposed structures. Design of drainage should include prevention of ponding of water on
or immediately adjacent to pavement areas. Surface features that could retain water in areas
adjacent to the structures should be sealed or eliminated.
We recommend that all permanent un-retained cut and fill slopes be constructed no steeper
than 2.5 H: 1 V. Cut slopes should be protected from surface water runoff to prevent erosion
and slope failure. Landscape sprinklers should be frequently checked for leaks and maintained
in good working order. Surface drainage should be provided around all permanent cuts and fills
to direct surface runoff away from the slope faces. Fill slopes, cut slopes, and other stripped
areas should be protected against erosion by re-vegetation or other methods. Concentrated
runoff should be prevented in areas susceptible to erosion or slope instability.

7.4 Full Depth Reclamation (FDR)
Full depth reclamation (FDR) is a pavement rehabilitation method that the full thickness of the
existing pavement is uniformly pulverized and blended with the underlying base course and/or
subgrade to create a subbase material. The FDR materials are either used to increase the
strength of the subgrade, or used as a subbase layer within the pavement structure. Based on
the encountered pavement thickness and subgrade materials, the FDR should be planned to
extend a minimum of 12 inches below the existing pavement surface during the mixing process.
The FDR should be performed in accordance with CDOT Section 310 (Special Provision), Full
Depth Reclamation of Hot Mix Asphalt Pavement.
8 PAVEMENT DESIGN
Based on the proposed construction we understand that all pavement will be reconstructed for
20-year design period. The current approach is to FDR the existing asphalt concrete pavement
with the subgrade, and the FDR material will be spread over the new roadway width to provide
uniform subbase course within the pavement structure. HMA will placed on top of FDR, or
where grade adjustment is required, imported aggregate base course (ABC) may be placed
over FDR material. In the WB lanes of Platte Ave where PCCP underlies the AC, the AC will be
milled and overlaid with new HMA.
Based on the current design approach, a portion of the roadway west of the proposed new
bridge approach will be constructed on fill materials. To meet the design criteria, embankment
within 3 feet below the bottom of the pavement (bottom of AC or FDR materials) should consist
of fill materials with minimum R-value of 50. Typical CDOT Class 1 structure backfill granular
materials should meet the minimum R-value requirements.
The extent of the pavement where AC overlaying PCCP is not known. We have evaluated the
extent of this type of pavement based on the aerial photos prior to the overlay (2015 aerial
photo). Based on the aerial photo, we estimated the extent of the PCCP as shown in Figure A-2
presented in Appendix A. Note that the limits of PCCP presented in this report are for
informational purposes only and should be confirmed during construction.
The following sections present our pavement design recommendations for the above
alternatives. Pavement design was completed in accordance with Section II of COS Engineering
Criteria Manual: Pavement Design Criteria Manual, current CDOT manual, and in general
accordance with 1993 AASHTO Design Guide.

8.1 Subgrade Strength
Based on our explorations and results of laboratory testing the pavement subgrade soils are
anticipated to consist primarily of sand with silt to silty sand, A-1-b to A-2-4. Subgrade soils are
relatively consistent along Platte Ave. and Space Center Drive, therefore one design subgrade
is used for our design. Based on R-value tests of 50 and 52 for combined bulk samples we have
assigned a design R-value of 51 to the existing subgrade soils. Design Resilient Modulus (Mr)
was calculated based on R-value on conversion guidelines presented in Section 4.2 of City of
Colorado Springs Pavement Design Manual. Effective modulus of subgrade reaction (k-value)
was calculated following Section 4.4 of COS Pavement Design Manual and a Loss of Support
value of 2.0. Table 8-1 presents the design subgrade strength parameters.

8.2 Traffic Loading
Design traffic loads were calculated based on the data provided by HDR in the Technical
Memorandum dated June 27, 2018. This information was used to calculate the Average Annual
Daily Traffic (AADT) in 2019, growth rate, and determining the 18-kip Equivalent Single Axle
Loads (ESAL) loading for a 20-year design period. The truck factors and vehicle classifications
used in our 20-year ESAL calculation were selected in accordance with CDOT 2013 Pavement
Design Manual. The calculated 20-year ESAL was compared to COS default values present in
Table 4 of the COS Pavement Design Criteria Manual and the higher 20-year ESAL was used
for design.

Based on the above design parameters and coefficients, we have calculated a minimum
required structural number (flexible pavement) and minimum rigid pavement thickness for each
section as presented in Table 8-6. The recommended minimum pavement thickness are
presented in Tables 8-7. In the area where composite pavement comprised of asphalt concrete
overlaying PCCP was encountered (Platte Ave. westbound, east and west end), it is our
understanding mill and overlay with asphalt concrete pavement is preferred. The recommended
mill and overlay thickness at the composite pavement is presented in Table 8-8.

These values should be used to select proper concrete type for the project in accordance with
Section 500 of COS Standards. A qualified corrosion engineer should review the laboratory
data and boring logs to determine the appropriate level of corrosion protection for materials in
contact with these soils.

1. "Penetration Resistance" on the Boring Logs refers to the uncorrected N value for SPT samples only, as per ASTMD1586. For samples obtained with a Modified California sampler, drive depth is 12 inches, and "PenetrationResistance" refers to the sum of all blows. Where blow counts were > 50 for the 3rd increment (SPT) or 2nd increment(MC), "Penetration Resistance" combines the last and 2nd-to-last blows and lengths; for other increments with > 50blows, the blows for the last increment are reported.2. The Modified California sampler used to obtain samples is a 2.5-inch OD, 2.0-inch ID (1.95-inch ID with liners),split-barrel sampler with internal liners, as per ASTM D3550. Sampler is driven with a 140-pound hammer, dropped 30inches per blow.3. "ER" for the hammer is the Reported Calibrated Energy Transfer Ratio for that specific hammer, as provided by thedrilling company.
