A density test'abteroiries the degrea'of 6,'Apa6tlon of the tested layer of material only. A density does not replace a soil bearing capacity determination. These density tests do not certify the• and©rlying soil materisls below the proposed structure. The results do not preclude or guarantee that future settlement and cracking will not occur. A soil boring test is rsquirevd to; certify tiiat Yee underlying soils will support the proposed structure without settlement. If no soil borings have been performed to verify the underlying soils, we recofnmend ithat'soll, borings be performed to evaluate the suitability of the underlying soil to support the proposed structure. After laying dormant for a period of 90 days or after hea'vyy'raih/stoims, retesting must be performed on this work.

Our findings are relative to the date and 'areas of our site work and should not be relied upon to represent conditions on other areas or dates. Any subsequent site disturbances due to water erosion, rain waters, construction activities, excavations, overgrown, vegetation, traffic and other disturbances will void this test -and the site must be re -compacted and re -tested prior to construction.
