MTC onsite at clients request to observe and test compaction of imported gravel placed on the east edge of the building
pad where the removal of unsuitable native fill soils(see MTC report#F24878)exposed undisturbed native glacial till
soils consisting of sandy silt with some gravel that is dense based on minimal penetration with a 5/8" round tip T-probe.
The imported gravel that was brought to the site contained excess moisture and the first 12"thick lift while displaying
suitable densities(between 140-145 PCF),deflected underfoot and beneath construction traffic.
MTC recommends aerating the imported gravel until moisture conditioned to within 3% of optimal wind rows
or scarified stockpiles,covered during wet weather,would be ideal for conditioning. Once conditioned the imported
gravel should be mechanically compacted to 95%per the MDD, and assessed by MTC,Inc.
In additional, MTC examined all perimeter footing sub grades west of gridline 6.5. Minimal to no penetration with a
5/8 roundtip T-probe was observed in a grey sandy silt with trace gravel. This is in agreement with the project
geotechnical report and is suitable for footing sub grade.
