Sorinafleld- Site/SOils/Compaction Investigation - W.O. #13788-RDR As you requested, a site/soils investigation was performed at the above noted address on June 4,2001. Design for the site is as follows All fill, vegetation, and unbuildable material has been removed to native grade. The native soil IS a silty clay decomposed ash/sandstone with a Unified Solis Classification of SC-SM and a plastlGlty index of less than 15. The expansiveness of the soil IS low (after Holtz 1959), A maximum 4" of crushed rock should be Installed with tracked excavation equipment to protect the proposed building site in the event of inclement weather. No extraordinary drainage or compaction IS reqUired for treatment of expansive soils at this site. On June 6, 2001 a compaction inspection was performed after fill placement. The compacted surface of the 1 1/2"" minus crushed rock IS adequate for a foundation bearing capacity of 1500 psf, which IS adequate to support the proposed conventional wood frame residence. The compaction of the gravel surface IS greater than 95% of a standard proctor per ASTM D698-91, See attached data sheet(s). Thank you for thiS opportunity to be of service. The enclosed Building Analysis Report and Statement of Conditions and limitations IS a part of thiS report. If you have questions regarding this report, please contact me at 484-9080 Sincerely, Bradley R Myers, P.E. - Per ASTM D 1556 W.o.# I ~7qq MORTIER ~NGINEERINGf P.C. 1245 PEARL STREET EUGENE, OREGON 97401 PHONE (541) 484-9080 · FAX (541) 484-6859 TEST NUMBER: TEST LOCA TION: I MA TERIAL TESTED (By visual observation): 1 li2- STRUCTURAL BUILDING DESIGN.
