Affidavit
For Site Investigation Questionnaire
Foundation Sub-Grade Approval for
Residential Building Site in Ambleside Meadows - 1 st Addition
Subdivision
The undersigned herdry afflIIDS thIIt Ihe excavation, stnlCtural fill and moisture
stabilization methods for the building site at the address shown above was observed by
me or an authorized employee of my firm and that the following is true:
I. The foundation sub-grade is capable of supporting a minimum of 1500 psf, and is
adequate to support the building proposed for this site.
2. The moisture content of the excavation was adequately maintained during the site
preparation process and was adequately covered to stabilized moisture content
prior to any significant change in moisture content of the sub-grade.
.
3. The site is adequately graded and drained to prevent the collection of water in the
excavated area during constructicm.
4. The accompanying report titled "Site Investigation Questionnaire for Consulting
Design Professicmals" containing field observations and instructions made on
..b..;.~"" .4 -(;., 7.sC>'2..... (date) for the building site was completed either by
myself or by an employee of my firm under my supervision. To the best of my
knowledge, the information contained in that report is complete and accurate.

The geotechnical report for the Ambleside Meadows - I" Addition Subdivision
recommends immediate moisture stabilization of exposed expansive sub-grades, and that
expansive soils be over-excavated and replaced with at least 12 inches of fiU compacted
10 at least 9S% of ASTM 0698 for foundation ,,''';_4Jon. The report also recoxnmends
that measures be taken to prevent water from collecting in or around the foundation areas
during and afler the construction process, and that positive site drainage bC provided to
reduce the infiltration of surface water into the expansive soils.
The geotechnical report further emphasizes that the finish grade of landscape soil
adjacent to the foundation should be at least 24" above the expansive bearing soils. frrmlv
comoacted to reduce the inftltration of water at the surface. The adequacy of fill soil
material around the building must be verified to the satisfaction of the design
professional.
