The results do not preclude or guarantee that future settlement and cracking will not occur. A soil boring test is rzq'uirec, to,certify thaW6 'underlying soils will support the
proposed structure without settlement. If no soil borings have been performed to verify the underlying soils, we recommend theitseil'borings be performed to evaluate the
suitability ofl}he underlying soil to support the proposed structure. After laying dormant for a period of 90 days or after heavy rain/storms, retesting must be performed on this

Compacted Soils Method D-6936 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 ofv..our test was to determine the degree of compaction of the tested layer iof
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'wit iout,'settlement. This density compaction test does not warranty any underlying soil
materials or conditions below,the tested_ top,12inches of material. If no soil borings have been performed in the location of
the proposed structure, we �recommehd 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 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 standard for paved areas such as roadways and parking lots. If different specifications aye
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, rain waters, construction activitibs,
excavations, overgrown, vegetation, traffic and other disturbances will void this test and the site must be re -compacted ad
re -tested prior to construction.
i
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. - i
It has been a pleasure working -with you and we look forward to doing so in the near future.
