allowed to pond or seep into the ground. If planters or landscaping are adjacent to paved
areas, measures should be taken to minimize the potential for water to enter the pavement
section. If the ADT (average daily traffic) or ADTT (average daily truck traffic) increases
beyond that intended, as reflected by the traffic index(s) used for design, increased
maintenance and repair could be required for the pavement section.
LIMITATIONS
The materials encountered on the project site and utilized in our laboratory study are
believed to be representative of the total area. However, variations from the anticipated
conditions and actual field conditions should be expected. Test excavations are reflective
of the soil and rock materials only at the specific location explored. Site conditions may
vary due to seasonal changes or other factors.
Since our study is based on the earth materials obtained in the field onsite, selective
laboratory testing and engineering analyses, the conclusions and recommendations are
professional opinions based upon those parameters. These opinions have been derived
in accordance with the current standards of practice and no warranty is expressed or
implied. Standards of practice are subject to change in time. Overall, the enclosed results
represent our professional opinions and evaluations which were performed within the
constraints of a budget. GeoSoils, Inc. assumes no responsibility or liability for work or
testing performed by others.

PAVEMENT CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE
The recommended pavement sections are meant as minimums. If thinner or highly
variable pavement sections are constructed, increased maintenance and repair may be
needed. Positive site drainage should be maintained at all times. Water should not be
allowed to pond or seep into the ground. If planters or landscaping are adjacent to paved
areas, measures should be taken to minimize the potential for water to enter the pavement
section. If the ADT (average daily traffic) or ADTT (average daily truck traffic) increases
beyond that intended, as reflected by the traffic index(s) used for design, increased
maintenance and repair could be required for the pavement section.
LIMITATIONS
The materials encountered on the project site and utilized in our laboratory study are
believed to be representative of the total area. However, variations from the anticipated
conditions and actual field conditions should be expected. Test excavations are reflective
of the soil and rock materials only at the specific location explored. Site conditions may
vary due to seasonal changes or other factors.
Since our study is based on the earth materials obtained in the field onsite, selective
laboratory testing and engineering analyses, the conclusions and recommendations are
professional opinions based upon those parameters. These opinions have been derived
in accordance with the current standards of practice and no warranty is expressed or
implied. Standards of practice are subject to change in time. Overall, the enclosed results
represent our professional opinions and evaluations which were performed within the
constraints of a budget. GeoSoils, Inc. assumes no responsibility or liability for work or
testing performed by others.
