Soil Bearing Capacity (SBC) & Level Confirmation for Shallow & Raft Foundation at Pump
Room
Dear Sir,
Further to your instructions regarding site inspection for the subject project please note the following.
• The site had been excavated up to -2.45m Below Existing Ground Level and compacted in
preparation for the construction of Shallow & Raft foundations.
• Total of Two (02) nos. of in-situ density tests and One (01) no. of Proctor tests were carried out by us
(Al Mawazeen Lab). Test results are presented in our lab reports (Attached).
• Degrees of compaction obtained from the tests was 96% of Maximum Dry Density (MDD) for road
base material.
• The recommendations are given in Soil Report done by M/s. Trans Fast Engineering Laboratory, Soil
Report ref No. TFL/G-1264/22, dated 26th April 2022 & DM Approved Drawing Ref No. 380830-6-1,
dated 30th November 2023.
• Examination of the formation level and sidewalls indicated that subsurface conditions are consistent
with those explained in the above-mentioned report.
• No additional comment is required here as the Soil Report & DM Approved Drawing Ref No. 380830-
6-1 is being followed.

Conclusion:
Based on the above results and careful observation of Soil Report & DM Approved Drawing Ref No. 380830-6-1
table 01 can be used safely for Shallow & Raft foundations to be set at foundation level of -2.45m for Pump
Room Below Existing Ground Level.
