No recovery means unable to extract samples from the base of the bore hole because the soil
will not bind in the auger head.
The colour of the soil is often abbreviated, for example Gy = grey Or = orange.
(Ls=? %) Indicates sample location and Linear Shrinkage result.
The footings must be dug into or supported on piers dug into the shaded material.
