APPENDIX A <br />FIELD EXPLORATIOn'S <br />Field explorations consisted of a program of 14 backhoe excavated <br />test pits located as shown in Figure 1. The test pits were <br />located in the field by taping from North Broadway and the property <br />corners. Elevations shown on the test pit logs were otitained by <br />interpolation from a topographic map of the site. The locations <br />and elevations should be considered accurate only to the degree <br />implied by the method used. The test pit explorations were con- <br />ducted on December 1, 1978 and continuously observed and logged <br />i.n the field by Mr. Michael A. Pagano, geotechnical engineer from <br />our firm. The test pits provided visual information as to subsurface <br />conditions i�ediatel�� �elow the ground surface to depths of up <br />to 15.0 feet. <br />, Sampling <br />,: Representative jar samples were obtained in each oF the test pits. <br />� These samples were taken at locations where changes in Che soil <br />itypes were observed. VariaCions in subsurface soils are often <br />gradual and the specific location for sampling is a matter of <br />I judg�_ment to select the most representative sample for that soil <br />tyr=, The samples were selected for the purpose of obtaining a <br />I record for further classification of the soils encountered, and <br />ta perform laboratory testing on these soils. <br />ITest Pit Logs <br />IThe logs of the test pits are presented in Figures A-1 through A-6. <br />These logs are based on our current interpretation of the field <br />and laboratory data. <br />I� <br />--- --- —....s,�„ �� _.-�t_�. <br />
