The soil is primarily fine-grained, compressible, and slightly cohesive; only 2.8% of the surface is covered by rocks larger than 5 cm in diameter. The average soil static bearing strength is 0.2 N/cm2 at 0.2-cm depth and 3.4 N/cm2 at 4-cm depth. References Choate, R., S. A. Batterson, E. M. Christensen, R. E. Hutton, L. D. Jaffe, R. H.
