Gentlemen:
On October 5, 1995, a representative sample of the paving subgrade
was obtained and returned to the laboratory for a lime series
analysis. Atterberg Limits test results are summarized on Plate 1.
Based on the test results, six percent hydrated lime (27 pounds per
square yard) is recommended to stabilize the paving subgrade.
We trust this information will be sufficient for your needs. If you
have any questions, do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
REED ENGINEERING GP~OUP IN~
