RE: Boulder Retaining Design P~eters
19735 Muirfie1d Circle
Shorewood, Minnesota
KBHNo.2005.103
Dear Mt, Frees:
This revised letter is being sent to discuss our engineering design parameters for the proposed boulder
retaining wall at the 19735 Muirlidd Circle project in Shorewood, Minnesota.. This design was based on
information provided by you on Octobet 3, 2005, which included a site survey prepared by Schoell &
Madson dated September 20, 1988, and other wall layout infonnation, No formal soil report was
provided for this project.
I understand that tile proposed boulder retaining "tVaUs on this project are located scmtheast of the existing
house in the bacl..--yard, A two-tiered wall system wiU be used to retain a section of the backyard in which
an in -ground swimming pool is proposed. The lower wall will be 6' exposed in height; will be
approximately 150' long; and will have a maximum 4:1 slope in front of the wal1. The upper wall will be
6' behind the lower wall (face.to-face distance); will be 6' high exposed; will be approximately 100'
long; and will have level slopes at the front and back of the wall. No ex1:ernal surcharge or groundwater
loads were d.esigned for these retaining walls, It is assumed that no load. is being imposed on the retaining
walls from the swimming pool. Therefore, the pool should be back from the npper walt a minimum of 10
feet. An embedment depth of 6" s.hould be maintained at the base of the 'walls and a ntinimum wall
batter/setback of 200 (3.5 incheslvertical foot) should be used.
Geos)'llthetic reinforcement fabric (geogrid) should be installed as follow$:
For the lower wall., place geogrid to a length of 1.67 times the wall height (l0' long for a 6' high
wall) at each course of boulders due to the surcharge loading of the upper wall on the lower wall
For the upper wall, place 4.5' geogrid at each course of boulders.
Using a select granular sand backfiJJ would d6crease tho g60grid lengths behind the bottom wa.ll to
lengths of 1.25 times the wall height.
Special note should be made of the wall embedment depth and the geosynthetic fabric (geo-grid) length as
measured from the front face of the ,vall, 'Refer to industry standard practice references for installation
information, specifications, Cllld details,

Boulders shall be placed to avoid continuous joint planes in vertical or lateral directions.
Each boulder shall bear on two or more rocks below jt with good f1a1-to-flat contact.
Place a 4" diameter couugated perforated draintile with sock at the finished grade ofwa11s, Outlet
the draintile at 50' on-celIl~ and at low points along the walL
Compact any structural :fill place behind the drainage zone to 95% standard proctor.
Drainage stone shall consist of clean. 1" minus crushed stone (100% passing I", 75~lOO% passing
%").
The design of the wall system assumes the following:
Soil conditions: Silt/clay) friction angle = 28,0 degrees, unit weight of 125.0 Ib/ft3
Allowable soil bearing capacity:;:: 1,500 psf
No e},,-rernal surcharge loading behind walls
Slope at bottom oflowerwall:= 4:1~ slope at top = 10:1
Slope at top and bottom of upper wall = 10: 1
Minimum embedment depth = 6"
Boulder Type: 24"-36" (base courses); 12"-24" (upper couffies); retaining wall specific boulders
Geosynthetic Fabric Type: Mirafi 3XT or equivalent
Direct all surface cira.inaSe away from the wall. The wall design was performed using the design
guidelines presented in the second addition of the "Oesign Manual for Segro.ental Retaining Walls"
(DMSRW) published by NCMA in 1996. If soil conditions, proposed wall layouts, or other design
parameters vary from that assumed, a revised analysis may be needed. Please call roe if you ha'Ve any
questions or need more information. Thank you.

Conditional Use Permit Review
City of Shorewood, MN
WSB Project No. 1459-04
We have reviewed the grading plan submittal, dated October 7, 2005 and prepared by Frank
Cardarelle, for construction of a swimming pool at 19735 Muirfield Circle. In addition, a letter
outlining the design parameters for a boulder retaining wall, dated October 7, 2005 and prepared
by KBH Consulting, Inc, was reviewed. Based on this review, we have the following comments:
Boulder Retaining Wall
1. In addition to the design parameters outlined in the design memo, it is recommended
that the following items be incorporated into the plan:
a. Place a six inch (minimum) compacted base under walls
b. Provide 12 inches of free draining aggregate behind wall system for drainage
2, The construction requirements must be shown on a construction plan signed by a
Registered Engineer, registered in the State of Minnesota,
3. It is recommended that, as a condition ofthe building permit, the Engineer submit an
as-built drawing certifying that the wall was constructed according to the construction
plan,
Site Drainage
1. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency recommends that, when draining swimming
pools, the water pumped :from the swimming pool be discharged to the sanitary

sewer, or, altematively, the water be held for a week or more (after treatment has
stopped) before discharging to a pervious area.
2. Should the homeowner discharge to pervious areas in the back of their own
residential lot, the runoff will flow approximately 500 feet to the pond located on
Outlot A, which outlets to the south, The anticipated flow path is shown on the
attached contour map of the area,
3. Because the rate of flow would be relatively minor, it is anticipated that the runoff
will most likely infiltrate into the ground before it reaches the pond,
4. Surface water runoff also would be improved slightly by this project. Under existing
conditions, the runoff :from the hill will be conveyed directly off-site, eventually
flowing to the pond on Outlot A. With the proposed construction, runoff :from the
area surrounding the pool will collect within the pool area rather than be conveyed
down the hill to the pond,
