Data Review

We reviewed published geologic maps, aerial photographs, in-house documents, and other literature pertaining to the site to aid in evaluating geologic conditions and the regional geologic regime for use in the analysis,

Site Reconnaissance

We performed a site reconnaissance to review general site conditions and performed onsite geologic observations,

Subsurface Investigation 

Three pits were dug by a peak axe up to 1.5 m and disturbed samples obtained at the bottom of the pits. DCP tests were conducted from the end of the pits up to 2.5 m. These data were used to develop a subsurface profile used in analysis,

Laboratory Testing 

We conducted a laboratory testing program that included natural moisture, sieve analysis and Atterberg limit tests to the three samples according to British Standards.

Report writing

We compiled geotechnical investigations report including our findings of the subsurface soil conditions, analyzed laboratory results and recommendations for foundation designs in terms of type and depth.
