DAILY FIELD REPORT PROJECT: Proposed FedEx Distribution Facility FIELD REPORT NO: 38 PAGE 1 OF 3 PROJECT NO: Z486.01 DATE: 4/4/23 LOCATION: 225 White’s Path, South Yarmouth, MA CLIENT: 225 White’s Path Units 2 and 3, LLC WEATHER: Clear to Overcast, 50s ºF CONTRACTOR(S): DellbrookǀJKS; C.C. Construction, Inc. 1. Luciano Gordon arrived on site at 1230 hours. Left site at 1600 hours. 2. Earthwork equipment: A) One Wacker Neuson BPU5545A Reversible Vibratory Plate Compactor B) One Caterpillar 335FL Excavator C) One Dynapac CA1300D Single Drum Vibratory Roller 3. Earthwork observed: A) C.C. Construction (C.C.) conducted an excavation and backfilling operation to remove and replace existing drainage utilities within the pavement area located to the west of the building today (see attached Figure No. 1, Site Sketch and Photo Log). The surrounding subgrade consisted of bituminous concrete at about Elevation 39± feet. Upon the undersigned’s arrival to the site, the undersigned observed C.C. compacting on-site backfill at about 16± inches below surrounding grade. The material used as backfill appeared to be generally representative of sample no. FS-1, and appeared to generally consist of tan, fine to medium SAND, trace Silt, trace fine Gravel. The undersigned observed C.C. compact the on-site fill with about six passes of the vibratory drum roller. The observed backfill appeared firm and stable under the vibratory action of the compactor. The undersigned performed field density test (FDT) no. 1 on this lift of compacted backfill (see attached Figure No. 1, Site Sketch for the approximate test location). The test results indicated that a satisfactory compaction percentage was achieved at the test location. Refer to the Summary of Field Density Tests sheet on page 3 of this report for additional information. Following the compaction testing, C.C. continued excavation efforts to chase out and remove existing drainage utilities. This excavation extended about 8± feet below the ground surface and terminated in apparent on-site fill. Following the removal of the existing pipe, C.C. installed a new 24 inch diameter pipe. The new pipe connected to existing pipe that extended below the recently poured concrete loading dock slab. C.C. bedded the new pipe with about 24± inches of the on-site fill generated from the excavation. C.C. personnel chinked the fill along the sides of the pipe with shovels during placement.

DAILY FIELD REPORT PROJECT: Proposed FedEx Distribution Facility FIELD REPORT NO: 38 PAGE 2 OF 3 PROJECT NO: Z486.01 DATE: 4/4/23 C.C. then backfilled the excavation with four to five, 8± to 12± inch thick lifts of on-site fill generated from the excavation. The on-site fill was placed to about Elevation 37.5± feet. The observed lifts of fill were compacted with six to eight passes of either the reversible vibratory plate compactor or the single drum vibratory roller. The observed lifts of on-site fill appeared firm and stable during and following the compaction efforts. The undersigned performed field density test (FDT) nos. 2 through 6 on the lifts of compacted backfill (see attached Figure No. 1, Site Sketch for the approximate test locations). The test results indicated that a satisfactory compaction percentage was achieved at each test location. Refer to the Summary of Field Density Tests sheet on page 3 of this report for additional information. Following the field density testing on the last lift of backfill, C.C. placed one, 12± inch lift of off-site base course fill to about 4± inches below the surrounding grade. This imported fill appeared representative of fill sample no. FS-3 and appeared to generally consist of grayish brown, fine to coarse GRAVEL, some fine to coarse Sand, trace Silt. The observed base course fill was compacted with six to eight passes of either the reversible vibratory plate compactor or the single drum vibratory roller. The observed lift of base course fill appeared firm and stable during and following the compaction efforts. The undersigned performed field density test (FDT) nos. 7 and 8 on the compacted base course fill (see attached Figure No. 1, Site Sketch for the approximate test locations). The test results indicated that a satisfactory compaction percentage was achieved at each test location. Refer to the Summary of Field Density Tests sheet on page 3 of this report for additional information. 4. Attachments: Photo Log Figure No. 1 – Site Sketch 5.
