Utilizing a large do: %, the contractor placed approximately.5' of recently <br />imported/aerated fill from a construction site in Mercer Island and compacted the material via large vibratory roller. ]he compacted fill was <br />observed to be unyielding under lire wheel weight of truck/trailer assemblies and Finn with corresponding T-probe depths of 3". A series of in <br />place density tests were conducted to confirm the specified compaction for the currently exposed impermeable cap ores (95% ASTM 1557). The <br />contractor was notified of all density results listed below. Additionally, AESI noted the contractor had continued to spread and compact the <br />specified "protective layer'soil near the southwest portions of the site. The sail (brown silty sand with gravel and trace deleterious debris) was <br />placed in a series of 6-12" loose lifis and compacted with n minimum of four passes via large vibratory roller. The compacted protective layer <br />was observed to be unyielding under the wheel load of earthwork equipment and firm with corresponding T-probe depths not exceeding 2". As <br />no compaction specification exists for the above noted protective layer, AESI will continue to performance evaluate the material during <br />placement.
