, , I . i � CONCLUSIONS ' � Dr. Caselnova's office is located at 7209 Green Slope Drive, Zephyrhills, I Florida. This site includes the southern half of a sin le-sto concrete masonry ; g rY , commercial structure with a partial brick and stucco exterior. The structure was � built in 2002 and the southern half of the building is owned by Michael and I Angela Caselnova. Dr. Caselnova's office manager, Betty Fulghum, stated that i she has not noticed any distress within Dr. Caselnova's portion of the office i building, but she was aware that distress had been noted within the northern i section of the office building (the Pediatric Care Center of Pasco, Inc.). Limited � minor interior distress and widespread minor exterior distress was observed at the ; Caselnova property. i � I Hand auger borings penetrated fine sands and clayey sands with limestone � fragments within the upper 5 feet depth. No organic-rich or highly plastic clayey � � materials were detected in the hand auger borings. Cone penetrometer tests indicate that the near-surface materials range from very low to moderate bearing ; strength. �j � Electrical resistivity results are indicative of clayey sands within the upper � 15 to 25 feet depth, overlying sands. No electrical evidence of the underlying ; limestone surface was detected in the areas and depths surveyed. Ground ' penetrating radar signals interpreted as anomalous were detected along 6 of the 32 traverses. � � E The enclosed floor elevation survey documents a total interior elevation ''� difference of approximately 1.5 inches. The foundation test pits revealed the ' depth of embedment to be in accordance with current construction codes (at least ; 16 inches at TP-1 and at least 18 inches at TP-2). The structural evaluation � yielded no evidence of a significant loss of structural integrity. � 4 Five standard penetration test borings were conducted at the Caselnova � property. Loose to very loose clayey sands were penetrated within the upper 6 to z 8 feet depth in four of the five SPT borings. Limestone was initially penetrated at � depths ranging from 48.5 to 69.5 feet depth in the five SPT borings. The � differential in depth to limestone is indicative of a paleosink environment � underlying the Caselnova property. A low N-value (N = 1) was recorded in I limestone at the 60 feet depth sample interval of SPT boring B-5. A partially iri- filled cavity, defined by a 4.5 foot weight-of-hammer condition, was penetrated in � limestone at 68.5 feet depth in boring B-2. Weight-of-rod conditions of 1.5 and 6 ; i I 17 ' � �
