Laboratory Tests
On-Site Borrow Soils
North Carolina
As authorized, Soil and Material Engineers, Inc.
has performed laboratory tests on soil samples delivered by
representatives of the North Carolina Department of Human
_ __, . I -:,
. i
Resources on December 20, 1978. These tests included moisture-
density relationships (AASHTO T-99, Method A). and permeability
tests. Test results are attached. Permeability tests were
performed on remolded samples prepared at 95% compaction. Two (2)
tests were performed on each sample for comparison. The comparisons
are excellent. Sample A has a permeability of 2.05 x 10-8 cm/sec
while Sample Bis 2.38 x 10-8 cm/sec. The maximum dry density for
Samples A and Bare 92.0 pcf and 90.2 pcf, respectively.
If you have any questions, please contact us.
Very truly yours,
