Observations/Finding

On the above date, our AS Engineering & Consulting representative was on site as requested by the contractor (HB NEXT). The technician observed the placement of fill soils – in approximately 8in lifts – in the approximate location of Lot #119 and Lot #120 (Phase 1 plans) to approximately 4 feet below finished grade. The technician observed a proof-roll of the approximate location of Lot #119. The proof-roll showed no signs of severe pumping and/or rutting. Moisture content tests were performed which resulted in approximately 25% moisture content. Optimum moisture content for the material proctor is approximately 15.5%. Our representative advised the head contractor (Randy) of the results and recommended to spread the fill out and allow it to aerate to reduce in-situ moistures prior to replacement and recompaction.

The contractor removed topsoil off Lot #38 #39 and #129 (Phase 1 plans) to conduct a proof-roll then began placing fill in approximately 8inch lifts and at a depth of 5 feet below finished grade. The proof-roll showed no signs of severe pumping and/or rutting. One lift was placed to allow for aeration of high moisture content soils. No compaction tests were performed at this time.

We appreciate the opportunity to be of service to you on this project. If you have any questions regarding this report, please feel free to contact us. We will be more than happy to discuss it with you.
