Subject: Summary of Visual Observations - existing multi-unit residential buildingHunter Chase Apartments in Greensboro, North CarolinaBuilding #6

File No.: RB-112117

Dear Emily:

At your request, RB Engineering, Inc. is pleased to provide the following summary engineering letterconcerning our recent site observations at the subject residential building. We performed our site visit onAugust 26, 2011 and were asked to inspect the building in order to evaluate the general structural conditionof the foundation system in regards to the exterior cracking that has occurred and to provide a foundationrepair plan.

FINDINGS

For the purpose of this report, all directions are given from the perspective of an individual standing in frontof and facing the front of the respective building. No material testing, excavation, soil testing or destructiveinspection techniques were performed for the purpose of this report. A copy of the construction plans wasavailable on site for our review. We did not have access for interior inspections for the purpose of thisreport. We understand that a Raleigh based foundation repair contractor installed underground helical piersapproximately 8 years ago to stabilize a section of the back, left corner of the building which has continuedto move.

During our site inspection, we observed the following relevant information:

• The subject apartment building (building #6, Apartments A-K) is a two-story, timber-framed, multi-family residence with a building exterior comprised of both brick veneer and siding. The foundationsystem consists of a cast in place concrete floor slab with a continuous reinforced perimeter stemfoundation wall. The existing lot slopes from front to back at the subject building with a significantdrop off toward Big Tree Way at the rear of the building. No roof drainage was present along therear of the building and the existing roof gutters and downspouts along the sides of the buildingoutlet near the base of the building.

• Moderate to severe differential settlement was observed toward the rear of the building. Exteriordisturbances consisted of brick veneer cracking (both horizontal and vertical cracking), brick veneerseparations at windows, and separations between the brick veneer and trim indicating that the brickveneer has rotated. Flashing has been temporarily installed at the second floor elevation to preventwater intrusion where the brick has reportedly separated between 1 and 2 inches. Using a surveyor'slevel, relative exterior elevations were measured along mortar joints in the exterior brick veneer andrevealed that there was between !/2-inch and P/i-inch vertical misalignment from front to back withup to 2!/4-inch vertical misalignment measured along the rear exterior walls.

CONCLUSIONS

August 29, 2011RBFileNo.:RB-112117

The subject multi-family residential structure exhibits differential settlement related issues at the rear of thebuilding. Inadequate site and roof drainage have contributed to the differential settlement of the foundationsystem. Structural repairs are suggested to stabilize the building foundation system and we recommend thatthe foundation repair contractor work closely with a structural engineer during the repair process to ensurethat the implemented foundation repairs achieve their intended purpose. As requested, we have provided youwith a proposed foundation repair plan for the subject building.

• Repair recommendation - Excavate at the back, left corner of the building to verify the location ofany existing piers. Determine the existing pier locations and any warranty coverage for the existingpiers as many foundation repair companies carry a life of structure warranty. Install (or adjust) 26underground helical piers along the rear exterior to stabilize the foundation movement. Monitor thebuilding on a routine basis. Improve roof and site drainage to provide positive drainage away fromthe foundation.
