SUMMARY of OBSERVATIONS: Lot 142: Previously, GeoDesign observed the over-excavation of an area in the northwest corner down to firm and unyielding material. Today, GeoDesign noted that the foundation excavation subcontractor had placed a layer of non-woven geotextile material and backfilled the area with a 2-4 inch recycled concrete material which was compacted into a firm and unyielding mass. Relative compaction of the exposed subgrade material for the rest of the footing area was tested using a Troxler Moisture-Density gauge; in-place density tests indicated that the exposed subgrade 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 footing subgrade area observed today is currently suitable for support of the intended load. GeoDesign recommends that any surficially loose and saturated material which may build up be removed from the base of the footing area prior to the placement of concrete. Lot 143: Previously, GeoDesign observed the over-excavation of an area on the west 1/3 of Lot 143 down to firm and unyielding material. Today, GeoDesign noted that the foundation excavation subcontractor had placed a layer of non-woven geotextile material and backfilled the area with a 2-4 inch recycled concrete material which was compacted into a firm and unyielding mass. Relative compaction of the exposed subgrade material for the rest of the footing area was tested using a Troxler Moisture-Density gauge; in-place density tests indicated that the exposed subgrade 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 footing subgrade area observed today is currently suitable for support of the intended load. GeoDesign recommends that any surficially loose and saturated material which may build up be removed from the base of the footing area prior to the placement of concrete.
