SITE OBSERVATIONS <br /> The site is currently developed with homes, street and driveways. <br /> BORING LOCATIONS AND ELEVATION <br /> The number of borings and their locations were determined by the Client, as shown on the <br /> enclosed Site Drawing. Please refer to the Site Drawing attached to this report for a sketch of the <br /> boring locations. <br /> FIELD INVESTIGATION <br /> The borings were accomplished using the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) method of <br /> investigation using a Split-Barrel Sampler(SBS). An attachment describes the soil classification <br /> system used(Unified). <br /> SOIL BORING RESULTS <br /> Refer to the individual boring logs for a detailed description of soils and moisture conditions <br /> encountered. Attached to the soil boring logs is a key explaining terms and entries. The depth of <br /> individual layers of soils may vary somewhat from those indicated on the logs due to unsampled <br /> intervals between split-barrel sampler tests and, most importantly, the occurrence of transition <br /> between soil layers. Also,soil profiles not in the vicinity of the borings may vary. Refusal to auger <br /> advancement was not encountered at the boring locations indicating lack of bedrock to depths tested. <br /> Groundwater was not encountered as indicated in the soil boring logs. The water level checks <br /> were performed at the completion of the boring and at varying times after the boring.The recordings <br /> are depicted in the boring logs. Groundwater levels may occur and vary according to various <br /> climatological and meteorological influences undetermined within the tie frame, scope and budget <br /> allowed in this investigation. In addition,area development patterns can influence groundwater. The <br /> indicated groundwater results are for conditions at the time of testing only. <br /> CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> The following conclusions and recommendations are based upon interpreted results of boring <br /> logs,their relation to the planned work,and other information. Because the borings represent a small <br /> portion of the site in relation to the proposed area of work, ongoing review of construction should <br /> be carried out. If excavations reveal subsurface soils of a different nature than those observed in the <br /> boring,the Geotechnical Engineer should be contracted for possibly revised recommendations. <br /> 1. Pavement Subgrade Preparation <br /> We refer to the attached sheet entitled "Bituminous Pavement Subgrade Preparation and <br /> Design"for information on pavement design and subgrade preparation including items such as test <br /> roll evaluation, subgrade drainage and compaction recommendations. <br /> 2 <br />
