The field explore.tion program was based upon the i <br /> proposed construction and requirec' design criteria , site <br /> topography and access , subsurface conditions revealed during <br /> excavation, the scope of worlc ouLlined in our proposal , and � <br /> time and budget constraints . <br /> The test pits were excavated on october 4 , 1991 with a rubber- <br /> tired backhoe owned and operated by Evans Etrothers Excavating. <br /> A geotechnical engineer from our staff observed the excavation <br /> procr.ss, logged the test pits , and obtained representative <br /> samples of the soils encountared. "Grab" samples of selected i <br /> subsurface soils were collected frorti the backhoe �uckeC. The , <br /> Test Pit Logs are attached to this report as Plate 3 . ; <br /> �r � Test Pit 1 encountered 2 feet of loose to medium-dense topsoil <br /> `,,, , and silry sand overlying very stiff t.o hard silts at a depth <br /> ; of 2 to 4 feet. Dense sands were observed bc•low the silt, at <br /> a depth of 4 feet. Test Pit 2 encountered about 1 foot of <br /> i �.�� loose topsoil overlying dense, silty sands. <br /> i ��� 7he final logs represe�t our interpretations of the field logs <br /> nnd laboratory tests . The stratification ; ines on the logs �, <br /> i represent the approximate boundary bet -een soil types at the <br /> �'1- exploratior, locations. The actual transition between soil <br /> types may be yradual and subsurface ccnditions may vary <br /> between explor:+tion locations . The relative densities and <br /> moisture descriptions indica�ed on the test pit logs are <br /> interpretive de;:criptions based on the conditions observed <br /> �.� duriny excavation. The logs sh�uld be reviewed for specific <br /> subsurface informatinn at the locatiors tested . <br /> ' �...� <br /> � . r.aOUNDWATER <br /> II No groundwater seepage was cbserved in our explorations . The <br /> test pits were left opE� only for a short time period, <br /> 1 �,���( therefore, the lack of seepage levels on the logs does not <br /> ` "� necessarily indicate that water s�eepage w: ll not be <br /> • encountered. It. should be noted that groundwater levels vary <br /> seasonally with rainfall and other factors . We anticipate <br /> that groundwater could be found between the near-surface <br /> weathered soils , and the underlying denser soils . <br /> � <br /> GEO�ECH CONSULTANTS, INC. <br />
