**FIELD BORING LOG SOIL SAMPLING REPORT** **1. Executive Summary** This report presents the findings from the soil sampling activities conducted at the Field Boring Log in Texas on December 15, 2025. Two soil samples were collected at varying depths, with the primary soil type being clay. The results from the soil sampling campaign will provide valuable information for understanding the geotechnical characteristics of the site and support the planning and design of future projects. **2. Project Information** *Project Name:* Field Boring Log *Location:* Texas *Start Date:* December 15, 2025 **3. Sampling Methodology** The soil samples were collected using a standard drilling rig. At each sampling depth, a sample tube was driven into the ground to collect the soil. The tube was then removed, and the soil sample was logged and preserved for further analysis. **4. Detailed Soil Profile** - At a depth of 15.00 feet, the soil type was identified as brown clay. The consistency of the soil was soft. - At a depth of 25.00 feet, the soil type was identified as black clay. The consistency of the soil was hard. **5. Soil Classification and Characteristics** - The soil at 15.00 feet is a soft brown clay. Clay soils are known for their plasticity when wet and harden when dry. The brown color indicates good drainage and aeration but might also suggest a lower organic matter content. - The soil at 25.00 feet is a hard black clay. Black clays are typically heavy and sticky when wet, and they can be very hard when dry. The black color could indicate a high organic matter content, which may affect soil behavior. **6. Observations and Findings** The two soil samples collected showed distinct characteristics in terms of color and consistency. The presence of clay soils at both depths indicates a relatively impermeable layer, which could impact the movement of water and other materials through the soil profile. However, further testing is required to determine the exact properties of the soil, including moisture content, density, and shear strength among others. **7. Recommendations** Further laboratory testing is recommended to determine the geotechnical properties of the soil samples, including Atterberg limits, compaction characteristics, and shear strength parameters. These results will provide a better understanding of the soil behavior and inform the design of any future construction projects on site. In addition, it would be beneficial to conduct more soil sampling at varying depths and locations across the site to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the site's geology. This will help to identify any spatial variations in the soil properties and provide a better understanding of the subsurface conditions across the site. *This report was prepared by a professional geotechnical engineer based on the data provided. The accuracy of the data is predicated on the information provided and the methods used to collect the samples.*
