PAGE 1 of 2 Compacted Soils Method D-6038 Disclaimer Pursuant to your request, Federal E gineenng & Testing, Inc. (FET) has performed a compaction test at the referenced project on the reverse side. The purpose of our test was to determine the degree of compaction, of the tested layer of material only. Iri no way shall a compaction test •replace a soil be capacity determination. A soil boring test must be performed by the client prior to construction to verify subsoil conditions. Our scope of services only -included testing the top 12" of added fill material." FET was not contracted to perform, supervision of the building pad preparation. This testing of the added fill material does not include an lanalysls of the underlying soil materials to determine if they are capable of supporting the proposed structure without settlement. This'density compaction test does not warranty any underlying soil materials or conditions .below the tested top 12 inches of material. If no soil borings have been performed in the location of the proposed structure, we. recommend performing soil borings below all foundation areas of the proposed structure to verify the underlying soil conditions. Environmental analysis of the soil materials is not part of the scope of services. If environmental analysis of the soils is required, we can provide a proposal for tI performing an environmental analysis of the soil materials. The scope of services is for determination of the degree of comp'action,of the tested layer of material only. No other analysis is implied or warranted. Job project specifications were not available at the time the work was performed. Determination of the pass/fail compaction results are based on current common industry requirements of 95% of the ASTM D-1557 'standard for building foundations and 98%•of the AASHTO T-180 standaId for paved areas such as roadways and parking lots. If different specifications are required, Federal Engineering & Testing Inc. shall be notified. 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, rainwaters, construction activities, excavations, overgrown, vegetation, traffic and other isturbances will void this test and the site must be re -compacted and re -tested prior to construction. As a mutual protection to clients, the public •and ourselves, all reports are submitted are the confidential property of clients and authorization for use, publication of statements, conclusions or extracts from or regarding our reports is reserved pending written approval. It has been a pleasure working with you a'pd we look forward to doing -so in the near future. Page 2 of 2 Test Probe Moist. - ' Dry:. Proctor OPtimurn � ...:..- #. TEST LOCATION :.. ; .
