Concrete Placement Observations Observed Comments
Required mix used Yes 4500 psi 1-1/2" aggregate
Concrete properly conveyed to all areas of placement Yes Pump truck was used
Internal vibration / consolidation of concrete Yes Vibrator was used for consolidation of concrete
Even layering around openings and embedments Yes Concrete was evenly layered around openings and
embedments
Post placement observations (finishing, curing, etc.)Yes Concrete was finished manually
Field Testing of Concrete performed:Yes
*CYLINDER SET NO:792-184 *Refer to associated concrete test report
Notes:
As requested by Wright-Pierce, S.W. COLE rep was onsite to perform concrete observation, field testing, and sampling at the
referenced location.
The S.W. COLE rep Caleb Drinan arrived onsite at approximately 7:24 AM and met with a representative of Wright-Pierce.
Concrete for this placement was supplied by Cape Cod Ready Mix. The approved mix design indicated a design compressive
strength of 4,500 psi with a 1-1/2-inch nominal maximum aggregate size. A total of approximately 25 cubic yards of concrete
was reportedly ordered for this placement.
Concrete placement activities were observed, and field testing and sampling were performed as requested.
Concrete field tests and samples were obtained from the first delivery truck during discharge.
Observed field test results were as follows:
Slump: 7.5 inches
Air Content: 4.5 percent
Concrete Temperature: 80°F
One set of five (5) concrete compressive strength test cylinders was cast from the first load for laboratory testing. The
cylinders were designated for one (1) 7-day break, one (1) 14-day break, two (2) 28-day breaks, and one (1) cylinder to be
held in reserve.
The cylinders were molded, cured, and will be transported to the laboratory in general accordance with applicable ASTM
standards.
Prior to departing the site at approximately 9:20 AM, the S.W. COLE rep, Caleb Drinan, verbally communicated the observed
field test results and general observations to Rayssa Fonte of CDM-Smith and a representative of Wright-Pierce.
