Design for the site is as follows: , All fill, vegetation, and unbuildable material has been removed to native grade. The native soil is clay with a Unified Soils Classification of CL and a plasticity index greater than 20. The soil is moderately expansive. A minimum of 12 " crushed rock should be installed with tracked excavation equipment to moderate the effect of the expansive soils at the proposed building site. The crushed rock should be placed and then compacted with either a vibratory plate or roller. Drainage shall be installed at the perimeter footings to help maintain optimum soil moisture at the site. With the placement of the crushed rock, and combined with the excavation that is of adequate depth and width, the site as prepared is adequate to assure a stable moisture content for the proposed foundation. On December 11, 2001 a compaction inspection was perlormed after fill placement. The compacted surlace 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 structure. 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.
