Utilizing a large dozer (D6), the contractor spread/aerated recently placed stockpiled imported <br />soils from the Highway 9 widening site (bluish gray SILT to brownish gray silty SAND with few gravels) into an approximately .5' loose lift and <br />compacted the material, in a series of passes, via large vibratory roller. The compacted material was observed 10 be unyielding tinder file <br />continued wheel weight of Inlckhrailer assemblies. Further, the compacted soil was probed, with the full weight of the observer on a .5" <br />diameter steel T-probe, and proved firm/unyicli ing with average penetrations of 2". A series of in place density tests were conducted to confirm <br />the specified minimum compaction (95% ASTM 1557). The contractor was notified of all density insults listed below. The contractor noted Thal <br />soil from a Mercer Island site was continuing to be imported and stockpiled near the western margins of the property. Further, the contractor <br />noted that both the roller and dozer had broken down earlier in the day and that they had onlyjust begun to spread and compact several areas <br />along the southern margins of the property.
