Observations/Finding

At the request of the client’s representative, the above mentioned representative from AS ENGINEERING AND CONSULTING, LLC (ASEC) visited the job site to observe the contractor’s work activities from a quality perspective, evaluating compliance with project drawings, specifications, applicable codes, and materials submittals.

1. Concrete Placement at Abutment (STA 10+19.17):
   • We observed the concrete placement for the abutment located at the begining of the boardwalk.
   • The reinforcement was verified and found to be in general accordance with the project drawings and details B-B’ and C-C’ for size, spacing and quantity.
   • A 3-inch clearance was noted, as per the details, during our visual inspection.
2. Concrete Quality Control (QC) Testing:
   • We conducted quality control (QC) testing and visual observations for the concrete placed.
   • Concrete slump was measured, and it was noted to be 3 inches.
   • Visual inspection verified that fresh concrete placed was vibrated during placement.
   • The percentage of air in the concrete was observed to be 2%.
   • A set of 4- 6″X12″ cylinders were made and will be transported to the lab the next day.
