The investigation was performed in accordance with generally accepted soil and foundation engineering practices and Section 1800 of the latest Florida Building Code. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the near surface soils with respect to the proposed project and to estimate the allowable bearing pressure of the soil. The site investigation program consisted of performing one (1) dynamic cone penetration test boring from existing grade to a depth of 7 feet. In addition, two (2) hand auger borings were performed to inspect the consistency of the subsurface soils. During the portable dynamic penetrometer test, a 35 lb. (16 kg) safety hammer is lifted and allowed to fall 15 in. (38 centimeters). Hammer blows are counted by the operator for each 10 centimeters of penetration with the counting facilitated by scribes spaced at 10 centimeters on each 1 meter long rod. Blows per 10 centimeter of penetration, dynamic cone resistance and equivalent SPT 'N' values are measured and shown on the attached logs. Please refer to the soil boring logs for specific information relative to the soil description. Based on the information obtained from this site investigation, we are pleased to offer the following evaluation: Dynamic Cone Penetrometer readings recorded during the investigation indicates that the existing soil density is too loose to be considered satisfactory for the project. The soils can support the proposed retaining wall so long as our 'site preparation recommendations are followed. Ronald G. Keller, P.E.: 37293 / SI Lic. No.: 860 / Julie E.

Site Preparation: In the footings, the disturbed footing subgrade should be recompacted to 95 percent (minimum) of its modified dry Proctor value. This can be best achieved by using a "jumping jack" compactor. This will tighten the top 3 feet of the very loose soils.
