Lucie County, Permitting SCANNED, BY ST LUCID COUNTY As requested, KSM Engineering & Testing has performed a subsurface investigation at the referenced site..: The purpose of the investigation was to evaluate the subsurface soils with respect to the proposed project and to estimate the allowable soil bearing pressure. The site investigation -program consisted of performing one. (1) Standard Penetration test boring .(SPT),. and. -two (2) hand -auger borings with Static Cone Penetrometer Readings in the ,prop.osed: construction area. The SPT boring.was terminated at a depth of 10 feet below grade and the auger borings at a depth of 6 feet below grade. The locations of the:borings are indicated on the attached Boring Logs. The SPT boring was completed in accordance with procedures described in ASTM D- 1586. kstandard 1.5 -inch I.D., 2 inch O.D. split -spoon sampler is driven into the soil by successive bloivg. of a: 140. pound hammer freely falling :.30 inches. The number of blows required to drive the sampler 1 foot, after seating 6 in., is designated the Penetration Resistance, or "N" value. At regular intervals the sampler is extracted from the ground -;and- opened toallow visual examination; and_iclassification of the retained soil sample.'.,^Also,,. th.e::groundwater table was allowed toistabilize and the depth of the ground.watereleyAtion recorded from existing grade. During the;auger. borings, a shaft with a conical point is .pushed..through the soil and the thrust required to push the cone tip is measured on an attached calibrated gauge. The value of the bearing, pressure exerted by the cone point allows, the operator to estimate the existing:-soil:4density . After the thrust was measured:; the ;hole was advanced with a hand -auger in :1,=foot .increments to permit a continuation of measurement of relative density versus depth:. , A. Ronald G.

The boring logs -indicate the subsurface soils consist mostly of fine-grained sand and fine-grained sand that is slightly clayed. No "muck" or other unsuitable soils were encountered -in,"the test borings except for the typical 'su`rface vegetation. "N" values and the Static- -Cone Penetrometer readings indicate That the existing soil density is generally= Ioose-'-to medium dense. Please refer to ;the` soil boring logs for specific information-Telative to the foundation. Foundation: i Based on the existing- soil conditions, it is our professional opinion, that the proposed structure can'be supported on conventional concrete, steel=,rejnforced footings designed for an allowable. -bearing pressure of 2,000 pounds per sgbare foot or less.

An estimated modulus of subgrade reaction of 150 pounds per cubic inch -(pci)i.:can: be used for design of the slab=on=grade. We recommend that control joints be.. incorporated in the slab at frequent -intervals to control shrinkage cracks.

Sufficient passes should be made during compaction operations to produce a density. -Iio :less than 95 percent of its mod ified,dry'' Proctor'value (ASTM D 1557) to a depth, oftwo feet.
