SUMMARY of OBSERVATIONS: Lot 138: Upon arrival, GeoDesign noted that the foundation excavation subcontractor had completed digging the footing and crawl space area for Lot 138. GeoDesign noted that the exposed footing subgrade generally consisted of a gray-brown silty SAND (f-m)with gravel which could be penetrated less than 2 inches using a 1/2 inch diameter soil probe. Relative compaction of the exposed subgrade soils were tested using a Troxler r,Ioistiure-Density gauge. In-place density tests indicated that the material had been compacted to greater than 95% of its maximum dry density as determined by a Modified Proctor analysis. It is the opinion of GeoDesign that the exposed footing subgrade observed today is currently suitable for support of the intended structure. GeoDesign recommends that any surficially loose and saturated material be removed from the base of the footing areas prior to the placement of concrete. Lot 137: S Upon arrival, GeoDesign noted that the foundation excavation subcontractor had completed digging the footing and crawl space area for Lot 137. GeoDesign noted that the exposed footing subgrade generally consisted of a gray-brown silty SAND (f-m)with gravel which could be penetrated less than 2 inches using a 1/2 inch diameter soil probe. Relative compaction of the exposed subgrade soils were tested using a Troxler Moisture-Density gauge. In-place density tests indicated that the material had been compacted to greater than 95% of its maximum dry density as determined by a Modified Proctor analysis. It is the opinion of GeoDesign that the exposed footing subgrade observed today is currently suitable for support of the intended structure. GeoDesign recommends that any surficially loose and saturated material be removed from the base of the footing areas prior to the placement of concrete. A summary of our observations can be found in the attached Figure 1 and Nuclear Density Gauge Data. John Feltner with Polygon was notified of our observations prior to our departure from the site. This report presents opinions formed as a result of our observation of activities relating to geotechnical engineering or environmental services.We rely on the contractor to comply with the plans and specifications throughout the duration of the project irrespective of the presence of our representative. Our work does not include supervision or direction of the contractor,the contractor's employees or agents. Our firm is not responsible for site safety.This field report is a DRAFT representation of our field observations,testing,and preliminary recommendations.The reportcan only be considered final upon review of the GeoDesign project manager,as indicated by initials in the"Reviewed By'section. 10700 Meridian Avenue North,Suite 402 1 Seattle,WA 98133 1 206.838.9900 2502 Jefferson Avenue I Tacoma,WA 98402 L..,253.203.009S
