Subject: Review for Permit Letter
Re: 2823 Oak Forest Drive, Grapevine, Texas 76051
Dunaway has reviewed the sketch and the foundation repair systern proposed
for the subject location. Ir) Our opinion, the proposed foundation repair, and
adjustment of existing pilings, should minimize the foundation settlement at the
subject location provided proper installation techniques are used which includes
all piles to be installed and driven to the point of refusal. In addition, the
installation is to be per the manufacturer's recommendations, specifications for
steel segmental pilings FPA-SC-08 latest edition which (-an be found at
www . fou nda tic) n tjerfora is inc::e. (:,,rcI, industry standards, proper founclation maintenance is performed and in accordance with 2021 IRC. A foundation
maintenance program can be obtained at the Foundation Performance
Association website.
The areas that are represented by cross-bratpingon the attached sketch are
the areas, it) our opinion that will be affected by the proposed foundation repair
system, provided the foundation system is of acceptable strength. If the actual
strength of the foundation system is found to be inadequate to support the
spacing of the piles as shown on the attached sketch, then additional piles may
be required to support the foundation.
Dunaway appreciates being of service. If you have any questions or require
additional infort-nation, please contact the undersigned.

Olshan Foundation Solutions
1614 Bluebank Road
Dallas, Texas 75229
Subject: Review of Foundation Repairs at 2823 Oak Forest Drive, Grapevine, Texas 76051
Job number:
As requested by Olshan Foundation Solutions, we have reviewed the repair proposal and
installation data from Olshan Foundation Solutions regarding the repairs made to the above
referenced residence. Olshan Foundation Solutions presented the repaired portion of the
foundation using 15 exterior and 6 interior steel piles and adjustments beneath the above
referenced location for our review. The pile locations and spacing as represented were found to
be in general compliance with industry standards, and generally in accordance with Olshan
Foundation Solution’s proposal based on the field data provided to us by Olshan Foundation
Solutions.
In our opinion, the piling depths in conjunction with the pile driving force as reported by Olshan
Foundation Solutions are generally appropriate for this type of structure and for the area where
the work is being performed. The repair work performed to the subject location is believed to
have been acceptably completed, based on the information provided by Olshan Foundation
Solutions, in accordance with good industry practice for foundation repair work using steel piles
and meets or exceeds the 2021 IRC. The repairs performed on the subject location should be
expected to minimize the foundation settlement observed prior to the foundation repair work. In
instances where partial repairs are performed, meaning the entire foundation has not been
underpinned, potential differential movement may occur. It should be noted that partial repairs
modify the design of the foundation and while partial repairs are generally accepted industry
practice the possibility of future movement should be recognized. Non-supported areas are not
covered for downward foundation movements by the contractor’s warranty.
The future performance of the foundation system on the subject location should function as
generally intended, provided proper soil moisture is maintained and there is not a loss in the load
bearing capacity of the soil beneath the foundation. Soils should be graded such that there is
positive drainage away from the foundation or a drainage system can be installed to prevent
water from ponding around the foundation. A foundation maintenance program is
recommended which can be found at www.foundationperformance.org.
We appreciate being of service. If you have any questions or require additional information,
please contact the undersigned.
