The purpose of This final report is to document that the grading for the referenced residential
subdivision at Blackstone Ranch has been completed in confOrmance with the recommendations of
the project geotechnical report The fill materials have been properly placed and compacted in
accordance with the project geotechnical report and the City of Carlsbad Grading Ordinance.
GENERAL
Blackstone Ranch is located in the southeastern portion of the City of Carlsbad. The Site is accessed
by the southeastern terminus of Camino Junipero from Rancho Santa Fe Road. The lots were rough
graded for proposed construction of one to two-story, single-family residential structures. Pennick
IncoEporated of El Cajon, California performed the mass grading operations.
Grading plans for the prOject are entitled Grading Plans for: CT 02-17 Shelley Property Fair Oaks

References to elevations and locations presented herein were based on the surveyor's or grade
checker's stakes in the field, surveyed bottom elevations, and/or interpolation from the referenced
grading plan Geocon Incorporated does not provide surveying services and, therefore, has no opinion
regarding the accuracy of the as-graded elevations or surface geometry with respect to the approved
plans or proper surface. drainage.
GRADING
Grading consisted Of removal of surficial topsoil, slopewash and alluvium to expose moderately
strong Metavolcanic Rock, installation of canyon subdrains, performing blasting of cuts and
undercuts of Metavolcanic Rock, and the placement and compaction of rock fills, soilrock fills, and
soil fill materials to achieve finish grade elevations Prior to placing fill, the exposed ground surface
was processed subsequent to removals, moisture conditioned as necessary, and compacted. Fill and rock
materials derived from on-site excavations were then placed and compacted in layers in accordance
with the project requirements until design finish grade elevations were obtained.
During the grading operations, we observed compaction procedures and performed in-place density
tests to evaluate the dry density and/or moisture content of the fill, soil-rock fill, and rock fill
materials. We performed in-place density tests in general conformance with ASTM Test Method
D 6938 (nuclear). The results of the in-place dry density and moisture content tests are summarized in
Table I. The approximate location of the in-place density tests are plotted on the As-Graded
Project No; G 1517 11 03 2 August 25, 2014
Geologic Map (Figure 1). In general, the in-place density test results indicate that fills, and soil rock
fills have a dry density of at least 90 percent Of the laboratory maximum dry density near to slightly
above optimum moisture content at the locations tested Where the fill contained particles larger than
3/4 inch, we applied rock corrections to the laboratory maximum dry density and optimum moisture
content using methods' suggested by ASTM D 4718 and Others. In addition, test pits were excavated
within rock fills to check for adequate moisture content and proper placement
We tested laboratory samples used for fill to evaluate moisture-density relationships, optimum
moisture content and maximum dry density (ASTM A) 1557) and shear strength (ASTM 3080). In
addition, we obtained soil samples at fi5h grade to evaluate expansion potential (ASTM D 4829),
water-soluble sulfate content (California Test No. 417) and water-solUble chloride ion content
(AASHTO Test No. 291). The results of the laboratory tests are summarized on Tables II through VI.
Slopes
Cut and fill slopes were constructed with maximum heights Of approximately 37 feet at inclinations of
2:1 (horizontal to vertical) or flatter. Cut slopes are composed of slightly to moderately fractured,
moderately strong to strong Metavolcanic Rock Slopes should be planted, drained, and maintained to
reduce erosion. SlOpe irrigation should be kept to a minimum to just support the vegetative cover.
Surface drainage should not, be 'allowed to flow over the top of the slope.
Finish Grade Soil Conditions
The soil encountered during grading operations is considered to be"non-expansive" and "expansive"
(Expansion Index [El] of 20 or less and greater than 20, respectively) as defined by 2010 California
Building Code (CBC) Section 19615.3. 3 Table 1 presents soil classifications based on the expansion
index. Based on the laboratory test results, the finish grade soil encountered during grading possesses
a "very low" to "low" expansion potential (El of 50 or less). Table IV presents the results of the
laboratory expansion index tests.

Project No. G1517-li-03 ' -3- ' August 25, 2014
We also performed water-soluble sulfate testing on samples obtained for expansion index testing to
evaluate the amount of water-soluble sulfates within the finish-grade soil. These test results are used
to evaluate the potential for sulfate attack on normal Portland cement concrete The test results
indicate sulfate contents that correspond to "not applicable" or "SO" sulfate exposure to concrete
structures as defined by 2010 CBC Section 1904.3 and ACI 318 The results of the water-soluble
sulfate tests are summarized on Table V. The presence of water-soluble sulfates is not a visually
discernible characteristic, therefore, other soil samples from the site could yield different
concentrations Additionally, landscaping activities (i.e., addition of fertilizers and other soil
nutrients) over time may affect the concentration. We also performed laboratory water-soluble
chloride ion content testing of the finish grade soils. The results are provided on Table VI.
Geocon Incorporated does not practice corrosion engineering.,Therefore, further evaluation by a
corrosion engineer may be performed if improvements susceptibleto corrosion are planned.
SOIL AND GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS
The soil and geologic conditions encountered during grading were found to be similar to those
described in the project geotechnical report Compacted fill (designated as Qcf and Quc on Figure 1)
was placed over Metavolcanic Rock (Mzu) within the limits of grading. Lots that exposed
Metavolcanic Rock were undercut at least 3 feet from finish pad grade and replaced with compacted
fill (Quc). Fill material within the upper .3 feet of finish pad grade generally consists of clayey sands
with gravel and cobble that has a maximum rock size of 6-inches However, some rock greater than
6-inches, may exist with the upper 3 foot of each lot. In addition, rock greater than 6-inches in
diameter will be present within fill areas deeper than 3 feet from finish grade. The enclosed
As-Graded Geologic Map (Figure 1) depicts the general geologic conditions, bottom elevations of the
fill, approximate location and elevation of canyon subdrains and in-place density test location
performed during grading operations. Due to the rock fill and the underlying metavolcanic rock,
excavations into the fill and rock may be difficult and possible refusal may be encountered during
future improvement installation.
We did not Observe groundwater or 'significant seepage conditions during grading operations. We do
not expect groundwater to adversely impact the proposed project improvements. However, it is not
uncommon for groundwater or seepage ôonditions to develOp where none previously existed.
Groundwater elevations are dependent on seasonal precipitation, irrigation, land use, among other
factors, and vary as a result. Proper surface drainage will be important to future performance of the
project.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1.0 General
1.1 Based on observations and test results, it is our opinion that the soil engineering and the
geologic engineering aspects of the grading to which this report pertains has been
performed in conformance with the recommendations of the previously referenced project
geotechnical report, the project grading plans, and the City of Carlsbad grading ordinance.
Soil and geologic conditions encountered diing grading that differ from those expected by
the project soil report are not uncommon. Where such conditions required a significant
modification to the recommendations of the project report, they have been described
herein.
1.2 We did not observe soil or geologic conditions during grading that would preclude the
continued development of the property as planned Based on laboratory test results and
field observations, it is the opinion of Geocon Incorporated that the fill soil observed and
tested as part of the grading were generally compacted to a dry density of at least
90 percent of the laboratory maximum dry density near to slightly above optimum moisture
content.
1.3 Metavolcanic Rock (Mzu) underlies the compacted fill and is exposed at finish grade in cut
slopes. Excavations within Metavolcanic Rock present below fills and on cut slopes for
pools, walls, and utilities will be very difficult and will require rock breaking equipment
and will generate oversize rock material Refusal should be expected when Metavolcanic
Rock is encountered. In addition, excavations within fill areas deeper than 3 feet will
encounter oversize rock.
2.0 Seismic Design Criteria
2.1 We understand the proposed residential structures were approved using the 2010 CBC for
design. We used the computer program Seismic Hazard Curves and Uniform Hazard
Response Spectra, provided by the USGS to calculate the seismic design parameters.
Table 2 summarizes design criteria obtained from the 2010 CBC (based on the 2009
International Building Code [IBC]), Chapter 16 Structural Design, Section 1613
Earthquake Loads. The short spectral response uses a period of 0.2 second. The residential
structures can be designed using Site Class C where there is less than 20 feet of fill and Site
Class D where the fill thickness is 20 feet or greater. We evaluated the site class according
to 2010 CBC Section 1.6 13.5.5. Table VII provides the site class for each lot.

2.2 Conformance to the criteria in Table 2 for seismic design does not constitute any kind of
guarantee or assurance that significant structural damage or ground failure will not occur if
a large earthquake occurs. The primary goal of seismic design is to protect life, not to avoid
all damage, since such design may be economically prohibitive.
3.6 Post Tensioned Foundation Recommendations
3.1 We understand that a post tensioned foundation system will be used to support the
residential structures. The post-tensioned system should be designed by a structural
engineer experienced in post-tensioned slab Idesign and design criteria of the Post-
Tensioning Institute (PTI), Third Edition, as required by the 2010 California Building Code
(CBC Section 1808.6). Although this procedure was developed for expansive soil
conditions, it can also be used to reduce the potential for foundation distress due to
differential fill settlement.
3.2 The post-tensioned foundation recommendations presented herein are for the proposed one-
to two-story residential structures. We separated the foundation recommendations into
three categories based on either the maximum and differential fill thickness Or Expansion
index. The foundation category criteria are presented in Table 3.1. Table IX provides the
foundation category for each lot.

3.3 The post-tensioned design should incorporate the geotechnical parameters presented on
Table 3.2 for the particular Foundation Category designated. The parameters presented in
Table 3.2 are based on the guidelines presented in the PTI, Third Edition design manual.
The foundations for the post-tensioned slabs should be embedded in accordance with the
recommendations of the structural engineer.

3.4 If the structural engineer proposes a post-tensioned foundation design method other than
the 2010 CBC:
The deflection criteria presented in Table 3.2 are still applicable.
Interior stiffener beams should be used for Foundation Categories II and III.
The width of the perimeter foundations should be at least 12 inches.
The perimeter footing embedment depths should be at least 12 inches, 18 inches
and 24 inches for foundation categories I, II, and III, respectively. The embedment
depths should be measured from the lowest adjacent pad grade.
3.5 Our experience indicates post-tensioned slabs can be susceptible to edge lift, regardless of
the underlying soil conditions. Placing reinforcing steel at the bottom of the perimeter
Project No. G1517-11-03 7 . . August 25, 2014
footings and the interior stiffener beams may mitigate this potential. Because of the
placement Of the reinforcing tendons in the top of the slab, the resulting eccentricity after
tensioning reduces ithe ability of the system to mitigate edge lift. The structural engineer
should design and the contractor should properly construct the foundation system to reduce
the potential of edge lift occurring for the proposed structures.
3.6 During the construction of the pOst-tension foundation system, the concrete should be
placed monolithically Under no circumstances should cold Joints form between the
footings/grade beams and the slab during the construction of the post-tension foundation
system unless designed by the structural engineer.
3.7 Categoiy I, II, Or III foundations may be designed for an allowable soil bearing pressure of
2,000 pounds per square foot (psf) (dead plus live 'load). This bearing pressure may be
in by one-third for transient loads due to wind or seismic forces. The estimated
maximum total and differential settlement for the, planned structures under the imposed
foundatiOn lOads is about ½-inch.
3.8 Isolated footings located outside the building slab shOuld have the minimum embedment
depth of at least 12 inches, 18 inches, and 24 inches for foundation categories I, II, and III
Isolated footings should be connected to the building foundation system with grade beams
3.9 For Foundation Category III, consideration should be given to using interior stiffening
beams and connecting isolated footings and/or increasing the slab thickness In addition,
consideration should be given to connecting patio slabs, which exceed 5 feet in width, to
the building foundation to reduce the potential for future separation to occur.
3.10 Slabs that may receive moisture-sensitive floor coverings or may be used t store moisture-
sensitive materials should be underlain by a vapor retarder. The vapor retarder design should
be consistent with the guidelines presented in the American Concrete Institute's (ACI) Guide
for Concrete Slabs that Receive Moisture-Sensitive Flooring Materials (ACI 302.2R-06). In
addition, the membrane should be installed in accordance with manufaturer's
recommendations and ASTM requirements and installed in a manner that prevents puncture
The vapor retarder used should be specified by the project architect or developer based on the
type of floor covering that will be installed and if the structure will possess a humidity
controlled envirOnment.
3.11 The bedding sand thickness should be determined by the project foundation engineer,
architect, and/Or developer. It is typical to have 3 inches of sand for 54nch thick slabs in
the southern California area. The foundation design engineer should provide appropriate
Project No. G1517-11-03 ', - August 25, 2014
concrete mix design criteria and curing measures to assure proper curing of the slab by
reducing the potential for rapid moisture loss and subsequent cracking and/or slab curl. We
suggest that the foundation design engineer present the concrete mix design and proper
curing methods on the foundation plans. It is critical that the foundation contractor
understands and follows the recommendations preséntéd on the foundation plans.
1-12 Special subgrade presaturation is not deemed necessary prior to placing concrete, however,
the exposed foundation and slab subgrade soil should be moisture conditioned, as
necessary, to maintain a moist condition as would be expected in such concrete placement
3.13 Where buildings or other improvements .ar.e planned near the top of a slope steeper than 3:1
(horizontal to vertical), speôial foundations and/or design considerations are recommended
due to the tendency for lateral soil movement to occur;
Footings should be deepened such that the bottom outside edge of the footing is at
least 7 feet horizontally from the face of the slope.
If swimming pools are planned, Geocon Incorporated should be contacted to
review the pool plans and the specific site conditions to provide additional
recommendations, if necessary.
Swimming pools located within 7 feet Of the top of fill slopes are not
recommended Where such a condition cannot be avoided, the portion of the
swimming pool wall within 7 feet of the slope face should be designed assuming
nt that the adj ace soil provides no lateral support.
Although other improvements, which are relatively rigid or brittle, such as concrete
flatwork or masonry walls, may experience some distress if located near the top of
a slope, it is generally not economical to mitigate this potential. It may be possible,
however, to incorporate design measures that would permit some lateral soil
movement without causing extensive distress Geocon Incorporated should be
consulted for specific recommendations.
3.14 The recommendations of this report are intended to reduce the potential for cracking of
slabs due to expansive soil (if present), differential settlement of existing soil or soil with
varying thicknesses. However, even with the incorporation of the recommendations
presented herein, foundations, stucco walls, and slabs-on-grade placed on such conditions
may still exhibit some cracking due to soil movement and/or shrinkage The occurrence of
concrete shrinkage cracks is independent of the supporting soil characteristics. Their
occurrence may be reduced and/or controlled by limiting the slunp of the concrete, proper
concrete placement and curing, and by the placement of crack control joints at periodic
intervals, in particular, where re-entrant slab corners occur.
Project No. G1517-ll-03 : August 2•5,2014
3.15 Foundation excavations should be observed by the geotechnical engineer (a representative
of GeOcon Incorporated) prior to the placement of reinforcing steel and concrete to check
that the exposed soil conditions are similar to those expected and that they have been
extended to the, appropriate bearing strata. If unexpected soil conditions are encountered,
foundätiôn modifications may be required.
3.16 Special subgrade presaturation is.not deemed necessary prior to placing concrete; however,
the exposed foundation and slab subgrade soil should be moisturized to maintain a moist
condition as would be expected in any such concrete placement.
3.17 , The foundation and concrete slab-on-grade recommendations are based on soil support
characteristics only. The project structural engineer should evaluate the structural
requirements of the concrete slabs for supporting expected loads.
3.18 Concrete slabs ' should be provided with adequate construction joints and/or expansion
joints to control unsightly shrinkage cracking. The design of joints should consider criteria
of the American Concrete Institute when establishing crack-cOntrol spacing.
3.19 •Exterior concrete flatwork not subject to vehicular should be constructed in accordance
with the recommendations herein Slab panels should be a minimum of 4 inches thick and,
when in excess of 8 feet square, should be reinforced with 6 x 6 - W2.9/W2.9 (6 x 6 - 6/6)
welded wire mesh or at least No. 3 reinforcing bars spaced 18 inches center to center in
both directions in the middle of the slab to reduce the Ipotential for cracking In addition,
concrete flatwork should be provided with crack control joints to reduce and/or control
shrinkage cracking.. Crack control spacing should be determined by the project structural
engineer based upon the slab thickness and intended usage. Criteria of the American
Concrete Institute (ACI) should be taken into consideration when establishing crack control
spacing. Subgrade soil for exterior slabs not subjected to vehicle loads should be
compacted to a dry density of at least 90 percent of the laboratory maximum dry density
near to slightly above optimum moisture content Subgrade soil should be tested pnor to
placing concrete.
3.20 Even with the incorporation of the recommendations within this report, the exterior
concrete flatwork has a likelihood of experiencing some movement due to swelling or
settlement, therefore, the steel reinforcement should overlap continuously in flatwork to
reduce the potential for vertical offsets within flatwork Additionally, flatwork should be
structurally connected to the curbs, where possible, to reduce the potential for offsets
between the 'curbs and the flatwork..
Project NoiG15i711-O3 ' ' IO- ' . . August25,2014
3.21 Where exterior flatwork abuts the structure at entrant or exit points, the exterior slab should
be dowelled into the structure's foundation stem wall. This recommendation is intended to
reduce the potential for differential elevations that could result from differential settlement
or minor heave of the flatwork. Dowelling details should be designed by the project
structural engineer.
3.22 Geocon Incorporated should be consulted to provide additional design parameters as
required by the structural engineer.
40 Conventional Retaining Walls
4.1 Retaining walls not restrained at the top and having a level backfill surface should be
designed for an active soil pressure equivalent to the pressure exerted by a fluid density of
35 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) Where the backfill will be inclined at no steeper than
2:1 (horizontal to vertical), an active soil pressure of 50 pcf is recommended. These soil
pressures assume that the backfill materials within an area bounded by the wall and a 1:1
plane extending upward from the base .ofthe wall possess an El of 50 or less.
4.2 Unrestrained Walls are those that are allowed to rotate more than 0.001 H (where H equals
the height of the retaining portion of the wall in feet) at the top of the wall. Where walls are
restrained from movement at the top, an additional uniform pressure of 7H psf should be
added to the above active soil pressure.
4.3 The structural engineer should determine the seismic design category for the project. If the
project possesses a seismic design category of D, E, or F, the proposed retaining walls
should be designed with seismic lateral pressure added to the active pressure. The seismic
load exerted on the wall should be a triangular distribution with a pressure of 17H (where
H is the height of the wall, in feet, resulting in pounds per square foot [psf]) exerted at the
base of the wall and zero at the top of the wall. We used a peak site acceleration of 0.29g
calculated from the modified deign parameters (SDS/2.5) applying a pseudo-static
coefficient of 0.5.
4.4 The retaining Walls may be designed using either the active and restrained (at-rest) loading
condition or the active and seismic loading condition. Typically, it appears the design of
the restrained condition for retaining wall loading may be adequate for the seismic design
of the retaining walls However, the active earth pressure combined with the seismic design
load should be reviewed and also considered in the design of the retaining walls.
Project No. G1517-11-03 . - Il: . August 25, 2014
4 5 Unrestrained walls will move laterally when backfilled and loading is applied The amount
of lateral deflection is dependant on the wall height, the type of soil used for backfill, and
loads acting on the wall The retaining walls and improvements above the retaining walls
should be designed to incorporate an, appropriate amount of lateral deflection as determined
by the structural engineer.
4.6 Retaining walls should be provided with a drainage system adequate to prevent the buildup
of hydrostatic forces iand waterproofed as required by the project architect The soil
immediately adjacent to the backfilled retaining wall should be composed of free draining
material completely wrapped in Mirafi 140 (or equivalent) filter fabric for a lateral distance
of 1 foot for the bottom two-thirds of the height of the retaining wall. The upper one-third
should be backfilled with less permeable compacted fill to reduce water infiltration The
use of draiiiáge openings through the base of the wall-(weep holes) is not recommended
where the seepage could be a nuisance or otherwise adversely affect the property adjacent
to the base of the wall The recommendations herein assume a properly compacted granular
(El of 50 or less) free-draining backfill material with no hydrostatic forces or imposed
surcharge load If conditions different than those described are expected or if specific
drainage details are desired,. .GeOcon Incorporated should be contacted for additional
recommendations
4.7 In general, all foundations having a minimum depth.and width of 1 foot may be designed
for an allowable soil bearing pressure of 2,000 psf. The proximity of the foundation to the
top of a slope steeper than 3:1 could impact the allowable soil bearing pressure Therefore,
Geocon Incorporated should be consulted where such a condition is expected.
4.8 The recommendations presented herein are generally applicable to the design of rigid
concrete or masonry retaining walls having a maximum height of 8 feet. In the event that
walls higher than 8 feet or other types of walls are planned, Geocon Incorporated should be
consulted for additional recommendations.
5.0 Lateral Loading
5.1 To resist lateral loads, a passive pressure exerted by an equivalent fluid weight of
400 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) should be used for the design of footings or shear keys
poured neat in compacted fill.. The passive pressure assumes a horizontal surface extending
at least 5 feet, or three times the surface generating the, passive pressuie, whichever is
greater. The upper 12 inches of material in areas not protected by floor slabs or pavement
should not be included in design for passive resistance'.
Project No. GI51741-03 , . ' -1-2- ' August'25, 2014
5.2 If friction is to be used to resist lateral loads, an allowble coefficient of friction between
soil and concrete of 0.4 should be used for design.
60 Slope Maintenance
6.1 Slopes that are steeper than 3:1 (horizontal to vertical) may, under conditions which are
both difficult to prevent and predict, be susceptible to near surface (suficial) slope
instability. The instability is typically limited to the Outer three feet of a portion of the slope
and usually does not directly impact the improvements on the pad areas above or below the
slope. The occurrence of surficial instability is more prevalent on fil.l slopes and is
generally preceded by a period of heavy rainfall, excessive Irrigation, or the migration of
subsurface seepage. The disturbance and/or loosening of the surficial soils, as might result
from root growth, soil expansion, or excavation for irrigation lines and slope planting, may
also be a significant contributing factor to surficial instability, It is, therefore, recom-
mended that, to the maximum extent practical: (a) disturbed/lOOsened surficial soils be
either removed or properly recompacted, (b) irrigation* systems be periodically inspected
and maintained to eliminate leaks and excessive irrigation, and (c) surface drains on and
adjacent to slopes be periodically maintained to preclude ponding or erosion It should be
noted that although the incorporation of the above recommendations should reduce the
potential for surficial slope instability, it will not eliminate the possibility, and, therefore, it
may be necessary to rebuild or repair a portion of the project's slopes in the future
7.0 Site Drainage
7.1 Adequate site drainage is critical to reduce the potential for differential soil movement,
erosion and subsurface seepage. Under no circumstances should water be allowed to pond
adjacent to footings without the use of impermeable liners or cutoff walls The site should
be graded and maintained such that surface drainage is directed away from structures in
accordance with 2010 CBC 1804.3 or other applicable standards. In addition, surface
drainage should be directed away from the top of slopes into swales or other controlled
drainage devices Roof and pavement drainage should be directed into conduits that carry
runoff away from the proposed structure
7.2 Underground utilities should be leak free. Utility and irrigation lines should be checked
periodically for leaks for early detection Of water infiltration and detected leaks should be
repaired promptly. Detnmental soil movement could occur if water is allowed to infiltrate
the soil for a prolonged period of time.
7.3 Storm water management devices should be properly constructed to prevent water
infiltration, a subdrain installed, and lined with an impermeable liner (e.g. High-density
Project No. GI517-11-03 S 1:3: August 25, 2014
polyethylene, I-iDPE, with a thickness of about 30 mil, or equivalent Polyvinyl Chloride,
PVC, liner). The devices should also be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations The subdrarn should be at least 3 inches in diameter and consist of
Schedule 40 PVC pipe. The subdrain should be properly waterproofed at the edges of the
liner where the perforated pipe is connected to solid pipe The subdrain should be
connected to a proper Outlet.
7.4 If not properly constructed, there is a potential for distress to improvements and properties
located hydrologically down gradient or adjacent to these devices. Factors such as the
amount of water to be detained, its residence time, and soil permeability have an important
effect on seepage transmission and the potential adverse impacts that may occur if the
storm water management features are not properly designed and constructed. Due to the
existence of compacted fill, infiltration should not be used for the property. We have not
performed a hydrogeology study at the site Down-gradient and adjacent structures may be
subjected to seeps, movement of foundations and slabs, or other impacts as a result of
water infiltration.
LIMITATIONS
The conclusiOns and recommendations contained herein apply only to our work with respect to
development, and represent conditions on the date of our final observation. Any subsequent
improvement should be done in conjunction with our observation and testing services. As used
herein, the term "observation" implies only that we observed the progress of the work with which we
agreed to be involved. Our services did not include the evaluation or identification of the potential
presence of hazardous materials. Our conclusions and opinions as to whether the work essentially
complies with the job specifications are based on our observations, experience and test results.
Subsurface conditions, and the accuracy of tests used to measure Such conditions, can vary greatly at
