Observations/Finding

As requested, the site was visited by our AS Engineering and Consulting (ASEC) representative for the purpose of providing quality control inspection and testing services.  Visual observation techniques were employed to verify compliance with project drawing/specifications, applicable codes, and materials submittals. The following observations were observed on site this day.

On the above date our representative was onsite to meet with the paving contractor (NWGP) and to observe subgrade and subbase conditions after a recent rain event. The remaining subgrade soils approximately 150′ both sides of roadway appeared too wet with rutting observed from subcontractor traffic. With additional rain forecasted for today it was decided not to repair and place additional base stone today. The paving contractor remained onsite setting grade stakes and blading the roadway.

Our representative observed the grading contractor backfilling poured curbing at the roundabout.

The writer also observed the wall contractor installing reinforcing steel for the bridge panels.

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.
