Our personnel made a site visit at the time of the foundation construction for the proposed
residence in Edmonds on August 10, 2017 and another visit after construction finished on January
29, 2018. We observed during our first visit that all footing areas had been excavated to
competent, dense glacial till soil; this soil was suitable for the design bearing capacity of 3,000 psf
(as was discussed in our geotechnical engineering study dated June 5, 2017). We also observed
that excavation slopes were adequate at that time. During our return visit in 2018, we observed that
the foundations are backfilled and excavation slopes no longer exist.
In our opinion, from a geotechnical engineering standpoint, the portions of the project that we
observed were very suitable.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to contact us.
