If variations then appear <br />� evident, it will be necessary to reevaluate the reco�endations <br />of this report. <br />� •. <br />� <br />r <br />r <br />r <br />r <br />� <br />Site Preparation <br />Prior to consL-ruction, site preparation should include the <br />following•, <br />1) <br />2) <br />Drainage of lower elevation wet or marshy areas, <br />Cleaning and grubbing of trees, shrubs, and roots, <br />� <br />3) Stripping of sod or loose vegetative cover and any other <br />soft, loose or organic zones, <br />4) Removal from the site of the mounded rubble piles and any <br />other garbage and debris, <br />5) Removal of the existing concrete foundation slabs, and walls, <br />and removal of any abandoned underground utilities such as <br />pipes, manholes, or conduits should these be discovered be- <br />low fouting foundations or slabs on grade, <br />Clesring and grubbing of trees and roots should generally pre- <br />ceed a.11 other earthwork activities. Once the trees and shrubs <br />have been cleared from the site, heavily rooted areas should be <br />grubbed. <br />Building areas, paved area, and areas to receive structural fill <br />shoul3 be stripped of all vegetative, soft, loose, organic soil <br />or loose fill. In our opinion stripping depths o£ about six to <br />�/� twelve inches would be sufficient, however, local variations may <br />�i <br />� require depths of as much as 2 to 3 feet to xemove larger organic <br />�. <br />�.', <br />�— -- -- <br />� <br />
