RE: PRELIMINARY SUBSOIL INVESTIGATION Proposed 18 Single Family 1-Story Homes Lots 1-18 Franklin Park Estates Unincorporated Broward County, Florida

Dear Sir or Madam;

Pursuant to your request, Florida Engineering & Testing, Inc., has completed a preliminary subsoil investigation on February 23 and 24, 2015, at the above referenced site. The purpose of our preliminary investigation was to verifY subsoil conditions relative to the proposed structure(s) foundation preparation and design. Our preliminmy recommendations are based on the assumption that the proposed structure(s) are as follows: 18 single fmnily 1-story homes (approximately 1,500­1,600 square feet each).

A total of nine (9) SPT boring(s) was/were performed according to ASTM D-1586 down to a depth of twenty-five feet (25') below existing ground level (BEGL) (see attached field sketch for locations). The following is a general condition for the subject site:

Depth From To Soil Descriptions

0'0" - 4'0" Light Brown Fine Sand

4'0" - 6'0" Brown Fine Sand to Slightly Silty Sands

6'0" - 13'0" Light Brown Fine Sand with Some Limestone

Fragments

13'0" - 25'0" Tan Limestone with Some Fine Sand

Groundwater table elevation was measured immediately at the completion of the boring(s) and was found at depths ranging from four feet four inches to five feet four inches (4'4" to 5'4") BEGL. Fluctuation in water levels should be anticipated due to surface runoff, tidal influences, seasonal variations, vmying ground elevation, construction dewatering and pumping activities in the area. Site contractor must familiarize themselves with site conditions in the event groundwater controls and dewatering is needed. The contractor shall make sure that groundwater levels on adjacent properties are not affected by the contractors dewatering activities. Specialty groundwater contractors shall be consulted for all work below the groundwater level.

Page 2, Preliminary Subsoil Investigation February 25, 2015 Job Order No. 15-699 Housing Finance Authority of Broward County Proposed 18 Single Family 1-Story Homes Lots 1-18 Franklin Park Estates, Unincorporated Broward County, Florida:

The boring log(s) attached present(s) a detailed description of the soils encountered at the test location(s). The soil stratification shown on the boring log(s) is based on the examination of the recovered soil samples and interpretation of the driller's field log(s). It indicates only the approximate boundaries between soil types. The actual transitions between adjacent soil types may be gradual.

Based on our understanding of the proposed structure and the information obtained from our preliminary field boring log(s); no unsuitable materials were encountered during our preliminary subsoil investigation of the subject property. Therefore a shallow foundation system may be utilized to support the proposed residence.

After new building(s) have been staked out, Florida Engineering & Testing, Inc., requires additional soil borings be performed within the proposed building areas to determine subsoil conditions at the proposed building locations in order to finalize our report.

If applicable, provisions shall be made by the architect, engineer of record and contractor to address differential settlements when tying in new to existing structures. If applicable, the seawall structure should be inspected to verify the structural integrity and prevent undermining due to the piling installation or excavation operations.

Regardless of the thoroughness of a Geotechnical exploration there is always a possibility that conditions may be different from those of the test location(s); therefore Florida Engineering & Testing, Inc., does not guarantee any subsoil condition sunounding the bore test hole(s) . For a more accurate pmirayal of subsurface conditions, the site contractor should perform test pits. The discove1y of any site or subsurface conditions during construction which substantially deviate from the information in our subsoil investigation should be repmied to us immediately for our evaluation. In accepting this repo1i the client understands that all data from this soil boring repmi is intended for foundation analysis only and is not to be used for excavating, backfilling, or pricing estimates. The site contractor must familiarize themselves with the job site conditions prior to bidding.

As mutual protection to clients, the public, and ourselves, all repmis are submitted as the confidential prope1iy of clients, and authorization for publication of statements, conclusions, or extracts from or regarding our repmis is reserved pending our written approval. All work must be conducted under the supervision of our Geotechnical engineer. All work shall be conducted in compliance with the Florida Building Code FBC and OSHA workers protection rules and all applicable Federal, State, County and City rules and Regulations.

Florida Engineering & Testing, Inc., appreciates the oppmiunity to be of service to you at this phase of your project. If you have any questions or comments, please give us a call. We would be pleased to help any way we can. It has been a pleasure working with you and look forward to doing so in the near future .

LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

WARRANTY

We warrant that the services perfonned by Florida Engineering and Testing, Inc., are conducted in a manner consistent with the level of skill and care ordinarily exercised by members of the profession currently practicing under similar conditions. No other waiTanties, expressed or implied, are made. While the services of Florida Engineering & Testing, Inc., are an integral and valuable part of the design and construction process, we do not warrant, guarantee, or insure the quality or completeness of services or satisfactory performance provided by other members of the construction process and/or the construction plans and specifications which we have not prepared, nor the ultimate performance of building site materials.

As mutual protection to clients, the public and ourselves, all reports are submitted as the confidential property of clients, and authorization for publication of statements, conclusions or extracts from or regarding our reports is reserved pending our written approval.

SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION

Subsurface exploration is normally accomplished by test borings. The soil boring log includes sampling information, description of the materials recovered, approximate depths of boundaries between soil and rock strata and groundwater data. The log represents conditions specifically at the location and time the boring was made. The boundaries between different soil strata are indicated at specific depths; however, these depths are in fact approximate and dependent upon the frequency of sampling. The transitions between soil stratum are often gradual. Water level readings are made at the time the boring was performed and can change with time, precipitation, canal levels, local well drawdown, and other factors.

Regardless of the thoroughness of a Geotechnical exploration there is always a possibility that conditions may be different from those of the test locations; therefore Florida Engineering & Testing, Inc., does not guarantee any subsoil condition surrounding the bore test holes. For a more accurate portrayal of subsurface conditions, the site contractor should perform tests pits. If different conditions are encountered, Florida Engineering & Testing, Inc., shall be notified to review the fmdings and make any recommendations as needed.

LABORATORY AND FIELD TESTS

Tests are performed in accordance with specific ASTM Standards unless otherwise indicated. All criteria included in a given ASTM Standard are not always required and performed. Each test report indicates the measurements and determinations actually made.

ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The Geotechnical report is prepared primarily to aid in the design of site work and structural foundations. Although the information in the report is expected to be sufficient for these purposes, it is not intended to determine the cost of construction or to stand alone as construction specifications. In accepting this report the client understands that all data from the soil boring is intended for foundation analysis only and is not to be used for excavating, backfilling or pricing estimates. The site contractor must familiarize themselves with the job site conditions.

Report recommendations are based primarily on data from test borings made at the locations shown on the test boring reports. Soil variations may exist between borings and may not become evident until construction. If variations are then noted, Florida Engineering & Testing, Inc., should be contacted so that field conditions can be examined and recommendations revised ifnecessary.

The Geotechnical report states our understanding as to the location, dimensions, and structural features proposed of the site. Any significant changes in the nature, design, or location of the site improvements must be communicated to Florida Engineering & Testing, Inc, so that the Geotechnical analysis, conclusions, and recommendations can be appropriately adjusted.

CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATIONS

Construction observation and testing is an important element of Geotechnical services. The Geotechnical Engineer's Field Representative (Field Rep.) is the "owner's representative" observing the work of the contractor, performing tests, and reporting data from such tests and observations. The Geoteclmical Engineer's Field Representative does not direct the contractor's construction means, methods, operations, or personnel. The Field Rep. does not interfere with the relationship between the owner and the contractor, and except as an observer, does not become a substitute owner on site. The Field Rep. is only collecting data for our Engineer to review.

The Field Rep. is responsible for his/her safety only, but has no responsibility for the safety of other personnel and/or the general public at the site. If the Field Rep. does not feel that the site is offering a safe environment for him/her, the Field Rep. will stop his/her observation/ testing until he/she deems the site is safe. The Field Rep. is an important member of a team whose responsibility is to observe the test and work being done and report to the owner whether that work is being carried out in general conformance with the plans and specifications.
