conclusions or extracts from or regarding our reports is reserved pending our written approval. A density test determines the degree of compaction orthe tested layerof material
only. A density does not replace a soil beating capacity determination. These density tests do not certify the underlying soil materials below the proposed structure. The results
do not preclude or guarantee tint 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 performed to evaluate the suitability of the structure
soil to support the proposed structure. After laying dormant for a period of 90 days or after heavy raintstorms, retesting must be performed an this work.
