and con·structi on. To accomp I ish. this scope. two borIngs

were drilled and. samples o.f. subsurface materials obtained

for evaluation of their engineering propertles. An ana~

I ys i s was made of \'I o r k p rev i o u s I y p e r f o rm e d by o t h e r s i n

the site area. Our work also included constderation of

possible effects of the proposed construction upon a

drainage ·tunnel sli·ua-ted boneath the site.

. PROJECT CONSIDERATIONS '·,<- .

It is our understandinQ that the proposed con­

domir\lum facill.tles will include a tower 16 stories in

height;: and a 2-l.evel parking str1,1cture separated. from

the tow·er. A portion of the tower is to be located over

an existing dratnage tunnel easement. The structure wit r

be supported by bearing walls which will Impose loads of

SITE CONDITIONS

SURFACE

The site is sltuat.ed on .the side of a north-

west-facing interlor slope of Salt Lake crater. Two

benches have been constructed at the site; one, which is

to contain the tower, slopes northwestward from eleva-·

tton +61 feet ~o +50 feet, .the other also slopes north­

westward from elevation +49 feet to +36 feet and is to

contain parking and recreation .facilities. Portions of

each bench are cut. fnto rock, and the remainder consists

otovarlying sand and gravel or ttl I m~terial which was

removed ftc~ the puts.

At pre~ent, . the sJ te is occup Jed by a one~story.

wood-frame of,flce but ldt.ng. The adjoining lot immedi­

ately west of the site contains a four-story concrete

structure.

SUBSURFACE ·

The site is situate.d. on the rim of Salt Lake

Crater, a secondary er;-uptton ln the 1-cffer volcanic stages

of Oahu's development. Volcanic ash ahd ejecta have been

cemented 1n place tp form h~rd volcanic tuff and tuff

breccia rock. General lyj th~ ·tuff Is massive, and is

sometimes overlain by ~ few feet 6f gravel or sand fl I I

A dtat.nage~~unner has been constructed by tun-

CO~CLUSIO~S AND ~ECOMMENDATIONS

TUNNEl_ StABILITY

A review of o(Jr files was made to gather exist-

lng Information rega.rding the drainage tunnel beneath

the stte. This Information was summarized In a:;precedlng

_paragraph, SITE CONDITIONS, SUBSURFACE.

We are of the opfnton that the proposed struc-

tur'e would have negligible effects on the t~nn~l; con­

versely; the presence ·of the tunnel would have negligible

effects on the proposed construct ion •.

ttiff urid~r the waft footing~ the bottom of the footin~

·should be·so.unded by test pits or drilling to at least

four fee~·Ldeep;. The bottom of a I I footings s h.ou I d be

at lea.st t~o feet below the lowest adj~cant grade .

All'foundation excavations should be Inspected

by a qualttJed soil~ engineer to verlfy t~at the exposed

t mposed . loads.

SLABS-ON-GRADE

It is our opinion that bui I ding slabs and pool

decking can be sattsfactorl ly supported at grade. A

minimum f.our-inch thick open graded gravel should be

used beneath any concr-ete slabs in. habitable. areas.

A vapor barrier or membrane should ba placed under the

slabs and the·base:::coursecgradaJion should-be suffi-

It Is our undet·standing that a basement wall

lateral e~rth pressure of 65 pounds per square foot per

impe~attve th&f t~ere be ~o latera~ dafl~ctlon of the

wall during the b.ackfllling operation of the wall. Thus

it appea'rs that buttress type I atera I supports would be

preferable to provide adequate rigidity during construe-

·The. exp f.ora:tory dd J I i ng phase. of o.ur work was·

conducted on Aprll'·2~ 1973. The Log of Borings are

provided on Plates A.,-fA and A-18 .of this Appendix.

The -dri.LI trrg was accomp Hshed by a sub con~

tractor ustng.a~.Mobtle OrTII, Model B-6L. Thls Is· ' .

a tru6k~mq~nted rotery drt 11 with.hydraulic-wash that

~lso has augerlng capabiJtties. Our engineering geo­

logist loc~ted the boring positions~ provided constant

super.vlsion during the dr.H I ing phase, selected the

most · e f f i c i en t d r i 1.1 i n g and . s amp I i n g tech n f q u e s for .

the materials ~nto~ntere~, and obtained relatlvely

undisturb_ed sor! Si:lmp!~s. NX·type._cores were obtained

of rock material~ encountered.

A series of :two borings .were dri I led during

the Jast phase of .the field exploratory work. The

borings were posl~io~ed to.provtde detal led informa-

tfon,about th• subsurface materials found at the site .

.The so.l'ls encountered ln the borings were classified

fn accordance with the Unified Sol I Classificat!on

System; a description of this system Is Included as
