GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING SERVICES PROPOSAL (Soils Report) <br />Geotechnical Report — New Single Family Residence <br />438 Cottage Ave, <br />Manteca, CA 95336 <br />June 22, 2021 Page 2 <br />occur. We have not budgeted to restore the site beyond backfilling our boreholes with cuttings, and <br />providing asphalt plugs. If there are any restrictions or special requirements regarding this site or <br />exploration, these should be known prior to commencing field work. <br />Our fee is based on the site being accessible to our two -wheel drive, truck -mounted drilling equipment <br />and CTE providing layout of the borings; additional costs may result if this is not the case. It does not <br />include services associated with site clearing, wet ground conditions, tree or shrub clearing, damage of <br />existing landscape or location of underground utilities beyond contacting U.S.A. If such conditions are <br />known to exist on the site, CTE should be notified so that we may adjust our scope of services and fee, if <br />necessary. <br />For safety purposes, all borings will be backfilled with cuttings immediately after their completion. <br />Because backfill material often settles below the surface after a period of time, we recommend the <br />asphalt plugs be checked periodically and sealed if necessary. We could provide this service at your <br />request, but this would involve additional cost. <br />CTE will mark the approximate boring locations on a map based on estimated distances from existing site <br />features. The locations should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by those methods. If <br />precise locations and/or elevations are desired, we suggest that the client retain a licensed surveyor to <br />stake the boring locations and provide the information. <br />Engineering Analysis and Report: The results of our field and laboratory programs will be evaluated by <br />one of CTE's professional Geotechnical Engineer's licensed in the State of California. It is our <br />understanding that existing site Geotechnical Engineering reports are unavailable. Based on the results of <br />our evaluation, an engineering report will be prepared that details the results of the testing performed, <br />provides logs of the borings, and a diagram of the site/boring layout. The report will include the following: <br />■ A description of the proposed project; <br />■ Computer generated boring logs with soil stratification based on visual soil classification; <br />■ A brief review of our test procedures and the results of testing conducted; <br />■ A summary of the area and site geologic conditions; <br />■ A description of the surface and subsurface site conditions encountered during the field <br />investigation; <br />■ Site preparation recommendations including stripping and possible special undercutting and/or <br />stabilization; <br />■ Suitability of on-site soils for use as structural fills; <br />■ Bearing value and soil design pressures; <br />■ Depth to groundwater, if encountered; <br />■ Backfill placement recommendations; <br />■ California Building Code (CBC) Seismic Conditions Site Classification; <br />■ Comments regarding potential liquefaction; <br />■ Boring logs including ground water level; <br />■ Recommendations for the type of foundation most suitable for soil conditions; <br />—' CAL. <br />
