' <br /> , RECOMMENDATIONS: <br /> ' The compact sand and firm sandy clay found below the topsoil and <br /> soft clays at the surface and at an elevation of 929 in Soil <br /> Borings 1, 2 , and 3 and at 931 in Soil Boring 4 are suitable for <br /> ' the support of a new home. It is our- opinion that these soils <br /> are capable of supporting footings proportioned to exert a <br /> maximum bearing pressure of 3000 pounds per square foot on this <br /> ' soil. <br /> Because these firm soils lay below the water table in the area, <br /> ' we fear that construction activity could disturb them and render <br /> them unable to support a home. We recommend that the topsoil and <br /> soft clay be carefully removed from the surface, that Class 5 <br /> , crushed material be placed below water level on these firm soils <br /> as per the attached detail sheet. Footings may then be poured on <br /> the Class 5 crushed material. <br /> ' <br /> I <br /> 1 <br /> 1 <br /> i <br /> i <br /> 1 <br /> 1 <br /> 1 <br /> i <br /> i <br /> 1 <br />
