OBSERVATIONS:
The writer arrived on site and met with Jamie Stedman. The super informed the writer that visual field
observations were needed on an area (see sketch) where a footing base was being installed. The writer
observed that the footing base material was placed prior to the writers arrival. The writer observed
the compaction of the material with several passes of a plate compactor. The material used for backfill
was offsite crushed concrete. After placement and compaction of the material the area was firm, dry and
stable.
A total of 3 field density tests were performed using the ASTM D1556 Sand Cone method of testing.
The earthwork observed/tested does conform to minimum requirements of 95% compaction.
These observations/testing results were reported to Mr. Stedman during this visit.
