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.

The depth of the fill was approximately one foot. The fill should extend at least five feet beyond the
building perimeter. At the time of our testing no information was available regarding the foundation pad
setbacks.
In the locations and depths that were tested, the fill has been compacted to a minimum of 95 percent of the
modified Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D 1557). No soil borings were performed below the
rei ently placed fill.
