Foundation Pad
Density tests and Hand Cone Penetrometer (HCP) readings were made at a minimum of three locations in
the building pad. Density tests were performed in the upper one foot of fill. HCP readings were taken in
hand auger boreholes at one foot intervals from slab grade through the depth of fill. The density tests were
performed in general compliance with ASTM D 2922. The HCP test, in conjunction with information about
the soil type, is empirically correlated to the relative density of subsurface soils.
