Huffines Huffines & Parmer, Inc. 8222 Douglas Avenue, Suite 660 Dallas, Texas 75225 Re: Preliminary Report Geotechnical Investigation Sandy Lake At Riverchase Coppell, Texas Maxim Report No. 0902604637 Gentlemen: Transmitted herewith is our preliminary report for the project referenced above. A total of 18 borings were drilled at the locations shown on Figure 1. Clay and sandy clay fill soils were encountered to the depths indicated on Figure 2. Penetrometer compressive strength determinations along with moisture content and density tests were performed on each soil sample during examination and classification. Based on these results, the fill soils are stiff to hard and appear to be compact. Average compaction levels are estimated to be in excess of 92% Standard Proctor density. Laboratory compaction tests are in progress. Actual compaction levels will be determined and reported in the final geotechnical report along with recommendations for the design of post-tensioned foundations. Sincerely, MAXIM TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
