Density tests and Hand Cone Penetrometer (HCP) readings were made at a minimum of three locations in
the building pad. Density tests were performed in the upper one foot of soil. HCP readings were taken in
hand auger boreholes at one foot intervals from slab grade to a depth of one foot. The density tests were
performed in general compliance with ASTM D 2922. The HCP test, in conjunction with information about
the soil type,, is empirically correlated to the relative density of subsurface soils.

In the locations and depths that were tested, the soil has been compacted to a minimum of 95 percent of the
modified Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D 1557). No soil borings were performed below bottom of
proposed slab.
