A density test determines -the degree oi;cori;pactioe of the tested layer of material only. A density does not replace a soil bearing capacity determination. These density tests do not certify the underying soil mateiiais belo4tlie proposed structure. The results do not preclude or guarantee that future settlement and cracking will not occur. A soil boring test is required to'certify that the underlying soils will support the proposed structure without settlement. If no soil borings have been performed to verify the underlying soils, we recommend that soil borings be-p,a'rformee to evaluate the suitability of the underlying soil to support the proposed structure.

PAGE 1 of 2 Compacted Soils Method D-6938 Disclaimer Pursuant to your request, Federal Engineering &' 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. In no way shall a compaction test replace a soil bearing 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 analysis 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 performing an environmental analysis of the soil materials. The scope of services is for determination of the degree of compaction of tije 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 standard for paved areas such as roadways and parking lots. If different specifications are required, Federal Engineering & Testing, Inc. shall tie 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, rain waters, construction activities, excavations, overgrown, vegetation, traffic and other disturbanceswillvoid this test and the site must be re -compacted and re -tested prior to construction.
