The subsurface information obtained during the field study will be used to determine the stability of the substrate. Soil samples will also be tested in a laboratory for the necessary indications of stability.

The laboratory tests include:

• Moisture content and dry density,


• Three (3) Atterberg Limits tests which are used for general classification purposes of the samples tested, and,
