Report of Observations
Atkins Village North,Lot 36
Fuquay Varina,North Carolina
Our Project Number 121-15-78801
Gentlemen:
As requested, a representative of TerraTech Engineers, Inc. was present at the above referenced site
on July 18, 2017 to perform testing on the crawl space footing excavations for the proposed residential
home located in the area of Lot#36. The purpose of our testing was to verify that the design soil bearing
pressure is available for the concrete foundations. We understand that an allowable soil bearing pressure
of 2,000 pounds per square foot(psf) is required. Our services did not include surveying. Locations are
based on the excavations performed by others.
Our field examinations consisted of visual observations,dynamic cone penetrometer testing in accordance
with ASTM STP-399,and hand rod probing at selected locations. Dynamic cone penetrometer testing was
performed at select locations and to a maximum depth of 3 feet below the over-excavated foundation
bearing elevation. Our scope did not include mechanically drilled soil test borings to evaluate deeper
subsurface soil conditions that could affect foundation support. Such services can be provided, if desired.
During our recent site visit and prior to our testing, we were informed by the contractor that the footings
would be over-excavated approximately 2 to 3 feet below the foundation bearing elevation. We were also
informed by the contractor that the footing excavations would be backfilled with consolidated#57 washed
stone to re-establish the foundation bearing elevation. Prior to placement of#57 washed stone,the results
of the footing examinations indicated that an allowable bearing capacity of 2,000 pounds per square
foot(psf)was available at the locations and depths tested at the time of our investigation. Additionally,the
foundation dimensions met the plan minimum requirements.
Exposure to the environment, especially rainfall, may weaken the soils beneath the foundation bearing
surface,if they are exposed for extended periods of time prior to concrete placement. If the over-excavated
soils beneath the foundation bearing surface become softened due to exposure, the soft soils should be
compacted or removed and replaced prior to placement of washed stone and concrete.
If you have any questions concerning this information,please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
TerraTech Engineers, NO / t .1110,
