GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING STUDY Mr. Rick Remsing E-10558 May 5, 2003 Page 3 Laboratory Testing Laboratory tests were conducted on several representative soil samples to verify or modify the field soil classification and to evaluate the general physical properties and engineering characteristics of the soil encountered. Visual field classifications were supplemented by grain size analyses on representative soil samples. Moisture content tests were performed on all samples. The results of laboratory tests performed on specific samples are provided either at the appropriate sample depth on the individual boring logs or on a separate data sheet contained in Appendix B. It is important to note that these test results may not accurately represent the overall in -situ soil conditions. ECI's geotechnical recommendations are based on our interpretation of these test results and their use in guiding our engineering judgment. ECI cannot be responsible for the interpretation of these data by others. In accordance with our Standard Fee Schedule and General Conditions, the soil samples for this project will be discarded after a period of fifteen days following completion of this report unless otherwise directed in writing. DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS General Based on the results of this study, it is ECI's opinion the proposed residence and driveway can be constructed generally as planned. Support of the residence may be provided using conventional spread and continuous foundation systems bearing on competent native soils. Slab -on -grade floors may be supported on the competent native soils or on structural fill. This report has been prepared for specific application to this project only and in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by other members of the profession currently practicing under similar conditions in this area for the exclusive use of Mr. Rick Remsing and his representatives. No warranty, expressed or implied, is made. This report, in its entirety, should be included in the project contract documents for the information of the contractor. Earth Consultants, Inc.
