PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF INVESTIGATION <br /> This report presents the results of our geotechnical investigation of the site. A site location <br /> map is shown on Figure 1. <br /> The purpose of this study was to gather information regarding the subsurface soil conditions <br /> and to determine their suitability for the proposed construction. <br /> The scope of our geotechnical investigation consisted of a surface reconnaissance, subsurface <br /> exploration, obtaining representative samples, laboratory testing and analysis of the field and <br /> laboratory data. <br /> Specifically, the intent of this study was to: <br /> a) Explore the subsurface conditions using one boring which was 25.0 feet deep. <br /> b) Recover relatively undisturbed brass liner samples and disturbed bag and bulk <br /> samples to evaluate the pertinent engineering properties of the surface and <br /> subsurface strata including their allowable bearing capacities. <br /> C) Define theo geology eneral <br /> g g gy at the site including possible geologic hazards <br /> which could have an effect on the site development. <br /> d) Recommend an foundation system for the type of structure anticipated and <br /> developed soil engineering design criteria for the recommended foundation <br /> system. <br /> e) Present our opinions in a report which will include plot plan, exploration logs, <br /> summary of laboratory test results, and conclusions and recommendations. <br /> PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION <br /> It is our understanding that it is proposed to construct a new building at the site. <br /> SITE DESCRIPTION <br /> The site is located at 30078 Bunker Road in the Gustine Area of Merced County. The site is <br /> located south of River Road,just west of McHenry Avenue(Figure 1). <br />
