Site work for a water / sewer project in Columbia, Missouri. Completed plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

Location - 6851 W. Rte K Columbia, MO 65203 The scope of the investigation included a reconnaissance of the site, a review of all available subsurface data in the vicinity, a subsurface investigation consisting of five soil borings to depths ranging from 39.5 to79.5 feet, laboratory soil testing, and an engineering analysis and evaluation of the foundation materials present at the site. The purpose of the investigation was to determine the types of subsurface materials present at the site likely to be encountered or affected by the proposed construction; to determine the general engineering characteristics of the various materials; to determine the seismic site class according to the 2018 International Building Codes; and to provide a basis for recommendations regarding bearing capacity and compressibility of the foundation and subgrade materials. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project consists of various upgrades to the Water Treatment Plant, including the construction of two new structures. The first structure is the new High Service Pump Station and the second is the new Chemical Building. Both structures are located on the south side of the water plant. At this time, column and wall loads have yet to be determined. The preliminary plans indicate that the new structures will be concrete slabs with below ground concrete walls and above ground load bearing CMU walls. The finished floor elevation for the High Service Pump Station is anticipated at 559 feet for the bottom of the pump pit (approximately 26 feet below existing grade) and 584 feet for the operations level. Finished floor elevation of the Chemical building is anticipated to be close to the existing grade at around 582 feet. SITE LOCATION The project site is located on the Missouri River bottoms, approximately 2.9 miles southwest of the City of Columbia, Missouri on State Route K. The site is bordered by Perche Creek on the northwest and undeveloped and agricultural fields for the ret remaining sides. Specifically, the project in the northeast 1/4 of Section 12, Township 47 North, Range 14 West or Latitude 38.8866740, Longitude -92.4435910 (See Vicinity Map, page 2).
