general indication of soils that are present at the tested areas. S3Soils
also provides Flood Elevation Determination Letters (Flood Letters) for

■ Existing Structures
S3Soils provides soil testing
and observation reports on structures that may have foundation problems such
as differential settlement or movement resulting in the cracking or movement
of the foundation, concrete block or the brick veneer. Typically,
cracking and movement within the foundation is found to be directly related
to the presence of buried organic material, buried anthropogenic material,
fat clay or elastic silt (pipe clay), or loose fill soils which were not
properly compacted during construction/installation. If the testing
reveals issues related to the existing soils, S3Soils can provide
a solution/design to offset the problematic soil conditions. S3Soils
works with foundation system companies to provide the installation of the
designed foundation system.

S3Soils provides drainage
studies on projects ranging from individual berm, swale, or ditch studies
for homes to localized basin studies for stormwater models and calculations.
