    Bank Weight of Soil Same as Max. Dry Density

    Perhaps I aked my question in the wrong way. What I'm trying to determine is if it is reasonable to use the Geo Lab's Max Dry Density Weight as Loose Weight Estimates for trucking? Or am I way out in left field?

    Bank Weight of Soil Same as Max. Dry Density

    If soils report states that Maximum Dry Density of Sandy Silt is 121.5 lbs/cu ft, would this also represent the Bank, or Natural State Weight? The soils report has no shrink/swell percentages, and I am trying to arrive at some reasonable adjustment factors. Any help would be appreciated.

    Setting Boots With Laser

    I need to set boots/hikeups on rough grade lathes prior to undercutting for removal, replacement and compaction of a building pad. Other than setting the lenker rod to the proposed grade I'm confused about how to set the rod for the hikeups. Any suggestions on the best procedure?
