GeoDesign noted that the <br /> exposed foundation subgrade consisted of a gray silty SAND (f-m)with gravel (f-c)which could be probed generally less <br /> than 3-4 inches. Relative compaction of the exposed foundation subgrade area was tested using a Troxler <br /> Moisture-Density gauge; in-place density tests indicated that the exposed material had been compacted to greater than <br /> 95%of its maximum dry density as determined by a Modified Proctor analysis. <br /> It is the opinion of GeoDesign that the foundation subgrade area observed today is currently suitable for support of the <br /> intended structure. GeoDesign recommends that any surficially loose and saturated material be removed from the base of <br /> the foundation areas prior to the placement of concrete. <br /> Lot 123: <br /> GeoDesign noted that the over-excavated area on the west side of Lot 123 had been backfilled with permeable ballast <br /> material compacted into a firm and unyielding mass. GeoDesign also noted that material was being stockpiled on the <br /> eastern portion of the foundation area,which was currently not ready for the foundation subgrade evaluation. <br /> The client and concrete contractor were notified of our observations prior to our departure from the site. A summary of our <br /> observations can be found in the attached Figure 1 and Nuclear Density Gauge Data. <br /> 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 <br /> 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 <br /> 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 report can only be considered <br /> final upon review of the GeoDesign project manager,as indicated by initials in the'Reviewed By section. <br /> 10700 Meridian Avenue North,Suite 402 I Seattle,WA 98133 I 206.838.9900 <br /> 2502 Jefferson Avenue I Tacoma,WA 98402 I 253.203.0095 <br />
