Observations/Finding

As requested, the site was visited by our AS Engineering and Consulting (ASEC) representative for the purpose of providing quality control inspection and testing services.  Visual observation techniques were employed to verify compliance with project drawing/specifications, applicable codes, and materials submittals. The following observations were observed on site this day.

Seven Hills: Amenities:

Due to the excessive rainfall from the preceding days, the jobsite remained saturated with excessive moisture. To address this, the contractor performed subgrade scarification and aeration to dry the site out using a Komatsu PC360LC excavator, Komatsu 39PX dozer and a Komatsu Pc360LC.   The wet soils at the end of the road was removed and transported and spread out to aid in aeration.

Savannah Pipeline Company has initiated the installation of stormwater lines located between the clubhouse and tennis court area. Excavation work was being carried out using the Kobelco SK350LC excavator. Backfilling was started and compaction being executed with a Hamm Sheep Toe compactor and a remote-controlled compactor, while smaller, confined spaces are compacted using a jackhammer to achieve the density and stability on every layer of fill. Installation of manholes D3, D3A has been successfully completed.

• Compaction testing was performed using a Troxler nuclear density gauge, along with general probing using a 3/8″ diameter probe rod.
• Density test results indicate that compacted materials did meet the project requirement of 95% of the maximum dry density obtained by a Standard Proctor ASTM 698.
