SUMMARY of OBSERVATIONS: Lot 135: Upon arrival, GeoDesign noted that the foundation excavation subcontractor had completed digging the footing and crawl space excavation for Lot 135. GeoDesign noted that the footing areas generally consisted of a brown and gray silty SAND (f-m)with gravel (f-c)that was frozen and/or submerged in water/ice. GeoDesign used a 1/2 inch diameter soil probe to roughly identify areas which may require over-excavation. Along the south perimeter, GeoDesign noted an approximately 10 to 15 feet long section which could be probed 1 to 1.5 feet; the area was clearly marked with orange spray paint. GeoDesign recommends overexcavating the area down to underlying firm and unyielding soil and backfilling with structural fill material. GeoDesign also noted areas of footing subgrade soil that appeared to be frozen loose and saturated soil. GeoDesign informed John Feltner with Polygon that the footing check would need to be observed after the ground has had a chance to thaw. Lot 140: Upon arrival, GeoDesign noted that the foundation excavation subcontractor had completed digging the footing and crawl space excavation for Lot 140. GeoDesign noted that the footing areas generally consisted of a gray silty SAND (f-m) with gravel (f-c)that was frozen and/or submerged in water/ice. GeoDesign used a 1/2 inch diameter soil probe to roughly identify areas which may require over-excavation. Along the south perimeter, GeoDesign noted discontinuous areas which could be probed 1 to 1.5 feet; an area along the south perimeter was partially marked with orange spray paint for later reference. GeoDesign also noted areas of footing subgrade soil that appeared to be frozen loose and saturated soil. GeoDesign informed John Feltner with Polygon that the footing check would need to be observed after the ground has had a chance to thaw.
