Excavation Contractor:John RileyNeuComm Solutions Name Company On-Site Notifications Karen Diack NeuComm Solutions Geotechnical Report Geotechnical Engineer:NWCC Report Date:06-19-2018 Anticipated Condition:Moisture Conditioned and Compacted Encountered Conditions Excavation Condition:We observed that the contractor had excavated down into the existing soils consisting of sands and gravels. This material appears similar to a contaminated class 6 abc. Per the soils report, structural backfill materials permitting a bearing pressure of 3000 psf maybe used as a base for foundation systems. Based upon our experience and on the IBC presumed soil load bearing pressures in Table 1806.2, this soil type, at the elevations and time of our observations, likely meets or exceeds the presumed allowable bearing pressure of 3000 psf. However, the presence of weaker subsurface soil layers resulting in allowable bearing pressure of less than 3,000 psf cannot be ruled out by surface observations only. We observed the contractor had scarified, moisture conditioned and re-compacted the soils at the base of this excavation with the use of a mini excavator and jumping jack compactor. The soils appeared moist, dense and generally unyielding.
