The silt <br /> encountered in Borin9 D-6 is not suitabla for use as structural till in its current <br /> candition, and should he mixed W�lh on•site poorly gradod sands encountered in the <br /> westarn portion of the site pri�r to use as strur,turel fill. <br /> The building and pavement arr,as and areas to receivc structural fill should be stripped <br /> and cic�orod of suriace vegetation, orc�anic matter, and other dele:erious material. <br /> No topsoil was encountered in our borinps. However, any topsoil encountered should <br /> be SVipped and removed, or may bo s[ockpiled on-�ite to be used in landscaping areas. <br /> - Tha stripped materials should not be mixed with mat�rials to be used as stfuctural fill, <br /> � Structural till is defined as compacted fill placed under buiidings, roadways, floor slabs, <br /> ' pavements, or other load-benrinp ereas. Structural fill under floor slabs, iootings and <br /> pavoments should be placed in horizontal lifts �ot exceeding twelve 112) inches ir� <br /> loose thickness and compocted to a minimum of 90 percent of its iaborelory maxirnum <br /> dry density determined in accordance with ASTM Test Desipnetion D-7557-81 <br /> (Modifiod Proctorl. The fill materiols should be pl�ced at or noar their optimum <br /> _ moisture content. The top twe�ve (72) inr,hos of fill under floar slabs and pavements <br /> should be compact�d to 95 percent ot ihe maximum density. <br /> - During dry wsether, most soils, which are compaotible and nomorganic, can be used as <br /> structural fiil. Based on the results ot our laboratory tosts, the on-site soils, at the iime <br /> oi our oxploration, appear nenr their optimum moisture conient and should be suitable <br /> for uso as structural filL Laboretory testing indicates the native poorly graded sand and <br /> silry sand have between 7 and 48 percont tines passing tha No. 200 sfeve. The silt <br /> oncounterod in BorinA f3-6 has 57 percent (inos passing the No. 200 sieve. These soils <br /> shoulrl 6e nenerolly suitabin for use as strucwral (ill durinr� dry weather. <br /> Eenh Coruulmme,In:. <br />
