SUBJECT: PROPOSED GEO-TECHNICAL INVESTIGATION OF FIVE (5) BOREHOLES AT 15.00

METERS DEPTH LOCATED AT PANGLAO, BOHOL

Dear Sir,

With reference to the above subject, we are pleased to submit our geotechnical investigation
proposal for your evaluation and consideration.

A. SCOPE OF WORK:

1. Drilling of Five (5) boreholes of 15.00 meters depth. The boreholes shall be drilled at the
Client’s Specified/marked locations. However, this assumption may change depending on
the actual site condition such as relative areas, height and distance between areas that are
to be drilled upon final confirmation from Client’s representative.

2. Conduct Standard Penetration Test (SPT) including disturbed sampling every 1.50 meters
interval including water table monitoring/recording for each on-shore borehole only.

3. Retrieve undisturbed samples on cohesive soils encounter using standard thin walled tube
(Shelby) sampler.

4. Should hard strata or rock formation is encountered, coring will be conducted and samples
will be taken. The drilling process will be terminated then at maximum of 5.00 meters
coring depth. Rock Quality Designation (RQD) shall be determined and other necessary
physical properties.
5. Conduct laboratory testing on selected soil and rock samples taken from the boring/coring
as follows:
a. Natural Moisture Content (ASTM D-421)
b. Sieve analysis (ASTM D-422)
c. Atterberg Limits (ASTM D-4318)
d. Unified Soil Classification System 9ASTM D-2487)
e. Unconfined Compression Test (ASTM D-2166)

6. Preparation and submission of three (3) copies of geotechnical report signed/sealed by our
geotechnical engineer/evaluator which will contain the following:
 a. Soil profile, type and classification, SPT N-values and water table location for on-shore
test holes if encountered. Stratification of the area explored is limited through the
drilling depth explored.
b. Discussion on soil stratification and other technical information relevant to the design
of the structural foundation within the area.
c. Evaluation and recommendation of the soil bearing capacity for the different footing
sizes and depths for shallow and deep foundation.
d. Evaluation of site liquefaction potential should the site be susceptible to this
phenomenon.
e. Photos of soil exploration and soil samples per test hole.

and mark test/boreholes jointly with MTCI, Secure permit if necessary, Facilitate gate
passes needed by our filed crews to access the site.
3. The client shall allow our crew to stay at the site and provide security to ensure safety of
our raft, equipment, tools and personnel/staff, a temporary area/facility with water, power,
a comfort room “free of charge” during the entire duration of drilling or field works as
these were not charge either.
4. Test holes shall be free of any obstruction and concrete cover prior to our mobilization.
MTCI shall not in any way be held liable for any accident or damage in the drilling of the
located/marked boreholes.
5. Mode of Payments:
a. Down/Advance payment: Fifty Percent (50%) of the total price before mobilization.
b. Full Payment: Fifty Percent (50%) upon claiming of Final Geotechnical Report at
MTCI office.
