APPENDIX B
LA13ORATORN TESTI\G
A. General
We conducted laboratory tests on several representative soil samplas to better determine the soil
classification of the units encountered and to evaluate the material's general physical properties
and engineering characteristics. A brief description of the tests performed for this study is
provided below. The results of laboratory tests performed on specific samples are provided at
the appropriate sample depths on the individual boring logs. However, it is important to note
that these test results may not accurately represent in situ soil conditions. All of our
recommendations are based on our interpretation of these test results and their use in guiding our
engineering judgment. Kleinfelder cannot be responsible for the interpretation of these data by
others.
In accordance with our General Conditions, the soil samples for this project will be discarded
after a period of 60 days following completion of this report unless we are otherwise directed in
w ritinz.
B. Soil Classification
Soil samples were visually examined in the field by our representative at the time they were
obtained. They were subsequently packaged and returned to our laboratory where they were
reexamined and the original description checked and verified or modified. with the help of
information obtained from the other classification tests, described below, the samples were
described in general accordance with the Unified Classification System, ASTM Standard D
2487-85. The resulting descriptions are provided at the appropriate locations on the individual
boring logs and are qualitative only. Figure A-1 in Appendix A provides pictorial symbols that
match the written descriptions.
