FOUNDATION REPAIR REPORT INTRODUCTION We are pleased to present this Foundation Repair Report for the planned underpinning repairs for your property. The purpose of this report was to evaluate the foundation conditions at the property and to provide repair recommendations and price quote for these repairs. Raiserite has been repairing foundations for over 30 years and we have never had a piered job settle. Scope of Report The extent and scope of this Foundation Repair Report is detailed below. To determine if there is a foundation failure, where that failure exists, the extent of failure and the repair options, several inspection techniques have been utilized: Exterio� Inspection: An exterior inspection of the structure was performed and important items such as foundation cracks, type of structure, and obstructions that may or may not influence the repair process was recorded. Foundation Footprint: Measurements of the foundation were made and a CAD drawing of the foundation footprint was created and is included in this�eport. Foundation Loads: The foundation load for the structure was calculated considering the type of structure, weight of the structure, type of foundation dead load, soil laad and live loads of the structure. The formula used and result for this structure is included in this report. The foundation load is critical in determining the repair options. Limitations This report is not intended to substitute for an engineer's report or a soils test which may or may not be necessary before any repairs are performed. This report is based on our observations and measurements may not be indica6ve of all the factors contributing to the foundation failure. Only a comprehensive geo#echnical and engineering investigation will be able to determine all the factars contributing to the failure of the subject foundation. Only the areas of concem indicated to our representatives have been included in this report. ' � � � f Customer Initials , � � CONCWSIONS � Findins�s I ' According to our investigation, the foundation failure is limited to 46 linear feet along three sides � of the structure. Detailed explanations of underpinning are provided qn the web site www.raise- rite.com. � The b�ock foundation supports one levels with wood - frame walls. The total line load of the foundation was calculated as follows: Dead Load 1060 Ibs/ft � Live Load 250 Ibs/ft Soil Load 220 Ibs/ft � Snow Load 90 Ibs/ft TOTAL 1620 Ibs. per foot � This load capacity is important in determining the repair options avaitable to the foundation. � Reuair Recommendations Based on the investigation performed on the foundation, it is our recommendation that the � foundation be supported by means of underpinning in the areas of failure as indicated in the CAD drawing below. In addition to supporting the foundation from further failure, the foundafiion may also be raised to � "maximum practical recovery"' The method of underpinning recommended is installing hydraulically-pushed steel piers into the soil to the load-bearing stratum sufficient to support the structure and foundation. The piers � should be installed under the foundation footing as close to the load-bearing center as practical. The type of steel piers used should be appropriate for the foundation load and foundation type. � At the minimum, any pier used should be designed to support up to 85,000 pounds. Additionally, at minimum, a load "factor of safety" of 2 to 1 should be used. The extra factor of safety is necessary to provide support of the structure in the event of unforeseen loads such as extraordinary live loads,snaw loads or anything else that might add more weight to the structure. � Pier spacing should, under no circumstance, span greater than ei ht 8 feet. This is to ensure against foundation failure between piers. 9 ( ) � After the piers have been installed, a detailed report of the actual load that can be supported basecJ on the hydraulic pushing measurements should be recorded and saved for future reference. This report serves as proof of sufficient support for the structure and foundation. A � sample of this type of report has been included in the Appendix. Failure to support the areas of foundation identified in this report may result in further settling and � could result in total foundation failure rendering the structure irreparable. ' In most cases,foundations can be raised back to their original level.Rarely,a foundation cannot be raised back to the original level due to poor foundation structure and any attempts could create additional foundation failure. � Customer Initials � � � � � � �� $@NIC@,QUOte To achieve foundation stabilization and raise the foundation to maximum practical recovery, � RAISERITE propos�s to install 5 piers under the foundatian footing as indicated in the CAD drawing below2: i � �� S,� � O VJOOtl Mek 1B � 11' � O � � � � The approximate spacing befinreen piers is 7 feet � � � � � � Z The pier placement is only an estimate of the location of each pier.Once the work has begun,the on-site Job Foreman witl , make the final determinations as to the actual pier placement based on the condition of the foundation,obstructions and any other factors that would affect the outcome of 4he repairs. Customer Initials ��J . �� Brand of Pier: Atlas Brand Pier Size: 3.5 inch in diameter Pier Ultimate Load Capacity: 85,000 pounds �� Factor of Safety Used: Exceeds 2 to 1 Each pier must be placed at t#�e bottom of the foundation footing, so there is either excavating �1 necessary or concrete floor removal. From the inside, small holes about 4 feet by 4 feet are all � j that is usually needed. From the outside, excavation to the bottom of the footing is necessary. Care will be taken when excavating and backfilling, but any damage to landscaping while � pertorming work will be homeowner's responsibility. i It may become necessary to remove landscaping, concrete, or even interior floors depending on a specific project. This report includes the full scope of the job, to minimize any surprises or �� problems. It also includes the responsibilities of the owner, if any, so the job can be completed � quickly and smoothly with minimum inconvenience. � It may also be necessary to remove or cut into concrete patios, driveways, or garage floors while � performing work under this proposal. It is the homeowner's responsibility to replace this concrete a if these repairs are not included in the Service Quote below. � For additional details about the proposed work, see the "Frequently Asked Questions" (FAQ's) and "Prior to Repair Preparations" in the Appendix of this report. � � � � � 1 � � � � Customer Initials � �! � � � - _ �} � Repair Price Itemization: ! �; j Pier pricing is determined by how deep the pier is pushed.

(, It usually isn't a matter of `if we can raise it higher', instead it is how high the ! homeowner wants it. When you raise a structure it may cause new cracks or open old ones. The process of raising it is a team effort between the homeowner and [ piering crew. 1` Q: Is this a permanent solution? , �! A: YES. Since the piers are pushed through the layer of soil that affects your foundation, it takes the variable of soil condition out of the equation. �; Q: Can I still live in my house while the work is being pertormed? A: Yes, most of the work is pertormed around the outside of the home with minimal �,' disruption to the hqmeowner. In some projects, it may be necessary to work from the inside. Even in those conditions, it will not cause the homeowner to vacate the Structure. � Q: Are the iers stron enou h to : P g g support the structure? �;; A: Yes, we have ins#alled these piers under 3 story buildings, huge machine bases, and large tanks. The maximum capacity of the piers probably witl not be reached, which allows for a high safety factor in the design of the piers. � Q: How far down will the piers be pushed? . A: As the piers are being installed, the pressure is monitored. The piers have tcs be � imbedded into a hard stratum. We will not stop at a certain de th, the iers have to be p P able to support the weight of the structure. It will vary from job to job and place to place. � Q: What is the major difference between piers? � A: Some piers have a smaller shaft, which may cause the iers to bend or fail. The P larger in diameter the sfironger the lateral load on the pi�r. A 3 to 4 inch in � diameter pier is the best for raising structures because of the load capacities. � Additional research on underpinning, other repair methods, differences among pier types and definition of terms can be � found at www.raise-rite.com.

Report Prepared by Raiserite Foundation 1-877-407-2473 �� FOUNDATION REPAIR REPORT-APPENDIX , �; DISCLAIMERS 8�JOB PREPARATIONS The piering process can take place during your normai activities, including remaining in the structure. We �, will be digging holes at each piering location approximately 2-3 feet wide to gain access to the structure's - foundation. The Piers will be installed and driven to a depth necessary to reach the load-bearing strata and then the holes and piers wilt be buried. � We specifically exclude any representation of leveling, fixing, closing cracks or restoring the structure � back to the original condition. We will only be able to stabilize the structure and attempt to lift the structure to its original position. In many cases, door and windows that once were out-of square will � retum to normal operation.However,we cannot guarantee this will happen in every case. Separations in plumbing or duct work may exist prior to the installation of our piers. There is the possibility that damage to the plumbing or duct work may occur as the foundation moves. If damage to � the ptumbing does occur, consequential damages may occur to the structure. We are not responsible for these damages if they occur as a result of the moving foundation. We shall not be held responsible for damages caused by pre-existing defects. Such defects may include, � but are not limited to, insuffiaent steel or cable reinforcement, insufficient or weak concrete,foundation or footings,or any previous home repairs. � During the excavation,we may he required to disturb or remove some vegetation and/or landscaping. No warranty of any kind is extended to plant survival. If the structure is lifted or moved, consequential damage such as cracks in the brick, drywall, stucco, may form. Minor damage such as this should be expected and we shall not be held responsible for repair to �; such damage. To minimize the risk of future movement of the structure, measures should be taken to etiminate the �� source of the strudure failure (i.e. correct plumbing leaks, correct irrigatio�, remove large trees near ' foundation, etc...) City permits engineering plans or geotechnical reports, if required or desired, are the responsibility of the customer and any costs associated with these items shall be paid by the Customer. Your Raiserite representative can assist you in obtaining these items. After performing work on inside, these may be dust or dirt. Our crews will attempt to clean as good as i possible.
