This letter summarizes the materials testing Ground Engineering Consultants, Inc. (GROUND)
performed during the construction of Block 13A located at the Foothills Mall Redevelopment
(address: 3100 S. College Ave., Fort Collins, Colorado). The materials testing was performed
on a part-time basis at times scheduled by the owner, owner's representative, contractor, and/or
subcontractor.
During construction, representatives of our office observed reinforcing steel placement and
performed testing on the structural concrete placed for the footings, foundation walls, and floor
slabs (ribbon slab). The structural concrete was tested to determine physical properties and
compressive strength. We also performed observations during the installation of the damp
proofing and foundation insulation.
Nuclear moisture density testing was periodically performed on the structural fill soils and
bearing soils during the building excavation and backfill to determine percent compaction and
in -place moisture content. Laboratory testing included the determination of moisture and
density relationship and soils classification.
A Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) was on -site to observe field welded and bolted connections.
Observations were performed during the erection of the structural steel. In addition, we
observed exterior light gauge framing.
Based on the test results and to the best of our knowledge, it is our opinion that the materials
tested as outlined above for soil compaction, concrete, reinforcing steel, damp proofing,
foundation insulation, light gauge framing, and structural steel welded and bolted connections
were in general accordance with project plans and specifications.
The materials testing as indicated above was periodically performed to provide data to the
Owner, Contractor, and Subcontractors to assist them in evaluating the general compliance of
the tested materials and/or work with the contract documents at the times of our observation
and testing. We did not supervise, direct or have any control over the Contractor's work. We
were not responsible for the Contractor's means, methods, procedures, techniques, or
