Guest Steve Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 The county inspector just told me I need to have a Soil Impaction Report completed on the are of my pool construction that has been built up over 12 inches. Can anyone tell me exactly what this is and how likely is it the soil does not meet standards? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jennifer Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 I had 3 soil impact reports before my new home was built. They test how compacted the soil is. When the soil is too loose it can cause problems in concrete settling. My soil had to be dug up ( six inches i think) and recompacted with a tractor. You should ask the city inspector what the requirements are. I think for my house it was 98% which is pretty rigid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
