Denton Tap Coppell, Texas 75019 RE: Project No. B-95-0191 Coppell Ace Hardware Store Coppell, Texas Dear Mr. Burch: A representative of GEE Consultants, Inc. obtained samples of the exposed material at fire lane subgrade level along the east edge of the proposed building at the above referenced project. The samples were transported to the laboratory and classification tests were performed. The test results are as follows: Sample No. 1 Sample Location: Sample Description: Liquid Limit: Plastic Limit: Plasticity Index: Percent Passing No. 200 Sieve: 40' east and 25' north of southeast corner of proposed building Light brown clayey sand 23 13 10 47 .. Sample No. 2 Sample Location: Sample Description: Liquid Limit: Plastic Limit: Plasticity Index: Percent Passing No. 200 Sieve: 40' east and 130' north of southeast corner of proposed building Brown and light brown silty clay with occasional gravel 45 13 32 66 A lime series test was then performed on material obtained from sample location No.2. The results of the lime series test are as follows: Percent Liquid Plasticity Lime Added Limi Index 0 45 32 2 43 16 4 38 15 6 38 - 5 Based on the above listed test results, we recommend that the subgrade of the proposed pavement be stabilized with the addition of five percent hydrated lime (approximately 23 pounds of lime per square yard, for a six inch thick stabilized layer). The lime stabilization should be performed in accordance with the accepted plans and specifications.
