<br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />PERTINENT INFORMATION <br />ABOUT YOUR <br />GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION REPORT <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Many construction problems are callsed hy sile <br />subsurface conditions.

(3) lile location <br />of the structures on the site and tileir oriental ion, <br />(4) additional entities sucil as access roads, <br />parking lots, and underground utilities, (5) and <br />the level of additional risk which the client <br />assumed by virtue of limitations imposed upon <br />the exploratory program. To help avoid costly <br />problems, consult a qualified geotechnical <br />engineer to determine how any factors which <br />change subsequent to the date of the report may <br />affect its recommendations, <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Unless your consulting geOlechnical engmeer <br />indicated OIherwise, your geolechllical <br />engineering reporl should nOI be used: <br />When the nature of the proposed <br />structure is changed: <br />when the size or configuration of the <br />proposed structure IS changed <br />significantly; or <br />when the location or orientation of the <br />proposed structure is modified, <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />MOST GIWTECHNICAL "FINDINGS" <br />ARE PROFESSIONAL ESTlMA TES. <br />Site exploration identifies actual subsurface <br />conditions only at those points \vherc samples arc <br />laken al the lime or sampling, Dala derived <br />through sampling and subsequent laboratory <br />testing is extrapolated by geotechnical engineers <br />who then render an opinion ;thOUl overall <br />subsurrace conditions.
