Levels of Soil:
- A Level = Topsoil (organic/mineral material)
- B Level = Minerals
- C Level = Partially weathered/fractured rock
- D Level = Bedrock
-
Bearing Capacity of soil
- Bedrock = 10,000 psf
- Well graded gravel/sand = 3,000 - 12,000 psf
- Compacted sand/fill = 2,000 - 3,000 psf
- Silt/Clay = 1,000 - 4,000 psf
