INTRODUCTION<br />
This report presents the results of the geotechnical investigation undertaken for the<br />
proposed light standards upgrade at the Fort Nelson Airport near Fort Nelson, Rc. The new<br />
standards will be replacing existing lighting situated on the airside of the main terminal building,<br />
between the building and apron. A total of 3 light standards will be replaced. It is understood<br />
that few details with respect to the method, size, and condition 0 f the existing 1ight standard<br />
foundation supports are known. At this time, it is understood that new foundations will be<br />
constructed for the new lighting. The easiest and least intrusive method of foundation would<br />
appear to be a pile foundation system.<br />
FIELD INVESTI GATI0 N<br />
. The field investigation for this project consisted of drilling and sampling 3 deep testholes<br />
within each existing light standard. Testhole 04-1 was located at the center standard. Testholes<br />
04-2 and 04-3 were located at the north end standard and south end standard respectively. The<br />
testholes were drilled to depths of 9.5m (Testhole 04-1), and to 6.Om(Testholes 04-2 and 04-3).
