LABORATORY TESTING PROCEDURES The following paragraphs describe our procedures associated with the laboratory tests that we conducted for this project. Our test results are enclosed in this appendix and/or are shown on the exploration logs contained in Appendix A. As part of our testing program, the samples were examined in our laboratory and classified in accordance with the attached General Notes or the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS), based on the texture and plasticity of the soil. A brief description of the USCS is included with this appendix. Visual Classification Procedures Visual soil classifications were conducted on all samples in the field and on selected samples in our laboratory. All soils were classified in general accordance with the United Soil Classification System, which includes color, relative moisture content, primary soil type (based on grain size), and any accessory soil types. The resulting soil classifications are presented on the exploration logs contained in Appendix A. Moisture Content Determination Procedures Moisture content determinations were performed on representative samples to aid in identification and correlation of soil types. All determinations were made in general accordance with ASTM: D-2216. The results of these tests are shown on the exploration logs contained in Appendix A. Grain Size Analysis Procedures A grain size analysis indicates the range of soil particle diameters included in a particular sample. Grain size analyses were performed on representative samples in general accordance with ASTM: D-422. The results of these tests are presented on the enclosed grain-size distribution graphs and were used in soil classifications shown on the exploration logs. 81135080
