a <br /> Sieve Analysis <br /> A grain size analysis and determination of the percentages of material passing the No. 200 <br /> sieve was conducted on two samples. The sieve analysis results are used as an aid in soil <br /> classification. The sieve analysis results are presented in Appendix A. <br /> CONCLUSIONS <br /> Based on the results of our geotechnical investigation including field reconnaissance, laboratory <br /> testing and engineering analysis of the subject site. It is our opinion that the proposed <br /> development is feasible from a geotechnical standpoint provided the recommendations <br /> contained in the following section are incorporated into the project plans and specifications. <br /> 1) The surface soils consist of a Brown-Gray Silty Sand. <br /> 2) The soils encountered have a low potential for expansion. <br /> 3) The Potential for Liquefaction and/or seismic induced surface rupture is low. <br /> 4) Differential settlement should not be a problem. <br /> DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> General <br /> The recommendations which are presented in the following sections of this report are provided <br /> to minimize potential problems associated with these on-site soils and at the same time provide <br /> for an economic development. Any unusual or unforeseen conditions encountered during site <br /> construction should be brought to our immediate attention to assure the appropriate <br /> recommendations are initiated. <br /> Foundations <br /> The maximum allowable bearing capacity, for compacted soil,was determined for the site, and <br /> was found to be 2500 psf(pounds per square foot). <br /> The minimum footing depth should be.12 inches below lowest undisturbed grade for the <br /> proposed foundations <br /> LIMITATIONS <br /> The materials encountered on the project site and utilized in our laboratory investigation are <br /> (4) <br /> a <br />
