As requested, KSM Engineering & Testing has performed a subsurface investigation at the
referenced site. Presentation of the data gathered during the investigation, together with our
geotechnical related opinions, are included in this report.
Site Description:
At the time of drilling, the riverfront site was fairly flat and had an existing structure with a few
palm trees. Due to the vegetation and trees, a portable Dynamic Cone Penetrometer
(Wildcat) was used to establish the bearing capacity of the foundation soils.
Project Description:
A pool and spa are planned to be constructed on the site. We anticipate that no more than 2
feet of additional site fill may be required to reach finished grade.
The scope of our study consisted of the following:
1. Performed Dynamic Cone Penetrometer Testing and hand -auger borings in the
proposed construction area to estimate the subsoil relative density.
2. Measured the observed groundwater level.
3. Evaluated the discovered subsurface conditions with respect to the proposed
construction and provided recommendations for site preparation and foundation
design.
4. Prepared this report to document our findings.

Site Investigation:
I' 01 t ENGINEERING
A% 0 jVL AND TESTING
The site investigation program consisted of performing two (2) portable Dynamic Cone (DC)
Penetrometer tests in the proposed construction area. Each DC test was terminated at
approximately 8 feet below grade. A hand -auger (HA) boring was performed by each DC Test.
Each HA was terminated at approximately 6 feet below grade. The locations of the borings
are indicated on the attached boring logs.
During the portable Dynamic Cone Penetrometer test, a 35-pound safety hammer is
repeatedly dropped 15" driving a 10 square centimeter cone through the ground. Blows per
10 centimeter of penetration, dynamic cone resistance, and equivalent SPT "N" values are
measured and shown in the attached logs.
Engineering Evaluation and Conclusions:
Based on the information obtained from this site investigation, we are pleased to offer the
following evaluation:
Subsurface Conditions Summary - The boring logs indicate the subsurface soils discovered
and the SPT "N" values recorded during the boring process in the proposed project area
consist mostly of the deposits of fine-grained sand and slightly clayed/silty fine-grained sand
that were very loose to loose at the surface and medium dense from 1 to 6 feet below grade
(HA boring terminus), and dense to very dense form 6 to 8 feet below grade (DC test
terminus).
Please refer to the attached soil boring logs for specific information relative to the soil
description and the SPT resistance record.
Observed Groundwater Table — Groundwater was not encountered in our test borings.
Based on the existing soil conditions, the proposed pool and spa can be designed and
constructed using an allowable soil bearing pressure of 2,500 pounds per square foot.
When excavating the pool and spa, if any organic soil or soft material is encountered, these
materials/soils should be removed and replaced with 3/" stones so the subgrade becomes
firm below the pool and spa bottoms. Please note that after placing stone in the bottom of the
excavation, granular soil should never be placed on top of the stone. It is important to not
undermine the existing foundation.
Backfill material behind the pool shell and spa shall consist of clean granular sand with less
than 10 percent "fines" passing the U.S. No. 200 sieve. Place backfill material in loose lifts of
12 inches in thickness and compact each lift to no less than 95 percent of its modified dry
Proctor value (ASTM D 1557).

A%0jV& AND TESTING
Based upon our subsurface investigation at the above -mentioned project location, the reliance
of the recommendations presented within this signed and sealed report is predicated on KSM
representative's involvement to verify that not only have the soils been prepared following the
indicated recommendations, but the foundations are installed in compliance within the
parameters indicated. The Pool Engineer of Record is responsible for confirming that the
estimated capacities provided are adequate for the anticipated loading. If additional capacity
is required, KSM is to be notified so that our recommendations can be amended as required.
This report has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted soil and foundation
engineering practices based on the results of the test borings and the assumed loading
conditions. No warranties, either expressed or implied, are intended or made. This report
does not reflect any variations which may occur between the borings. If variations appear
evident during the course of construction, it would be necessary to re-evaluate the
recommendations of this project.
Environmental conditions, wetland delineation, water quality, and municipal requirements are
not a part of this report.
We are pleased to be of assistance to you on this phase of your project. When we may be of
further service to you or should you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
