Dear Mr. Zamudio:
As you requested, an on -site visit was made to the above referenced site to
determine the degree of compaction of the foundation soils under the house pad
for the final lift. Since the house pad was in place at the time of our visit, the
following method was used to determine the in -place density.
1. At locations around the exterior of the foundation, the soil was removed
parallel to the bearing grade of the footer and nuclear density readings
taken.
2. At random locations around the exterior of the footer, a Brainard-Killman
model S-214 static cone penetrometer was used to measure the soil
resistance beneath the bearing grade of the footer.
Findings:
Nuclear density, readings indicate that the degree of compaction ranged from
97.8 to 98.8 percent of its modified Proctor value. Penetrometer readings
indicate that the filled soils to be generally firm. The soil compaction report along
with our penetrometer readings is attached.

Based upon the field data obtained, it is our professional opinion that the
compaction exceeds 95 percent of its modified dry Proctor.
We trust the findings in our investigation are clear and understandable. If any
n is needed, please contact our office.
