Note: To verify that the area/ material being inspected was tested by SA
approved third party testing agency, the test results attached with this RFI
shall be verified by the relevant PID inspection unit if copy of the test
results had been received directly from the third party lab. If not available
in the PID Inspection Unit, the inspector shall contact the third party
laboratory representative and request for an explanation. If the explanation
is not reasonable, NCR shall be issued to the third party lab through the
Batch Plant and Civil Testing Group.

Contractor's testing agency shall be a Saudi ARAMCO-approved SAES-A-114

A1
independent civil testing agency. Sec. 5.1.1

One Modified Proctor Test per ASTM D1557 with corresponding Proctor
SAES-A-114
A2 curve shall be performed for each type of fill material or where there is a
Sec. 6.4.1.1
change in the type or the source of material.

For cohesionless free draining soils, ASTM D4253 Maximum Index

Density and Unit Weight of Soils Using a Vibratory Table and ASTM
D4254 Minimum Index Density and Unit Weight of Soil and Calculation of SAES-A-114
A3
Relative Density shall also be performed for each type of cohesionless, Sec. 6.4.1.1
free draining material or where there is a change in the type or the source
of material..

In-place density shall be determined using one of the following:

ASTM D-1556 Sand Cone Method;
SAES-A-114
A4 ASTM D-2167 Rubber Balloon Method;
Sec. 6.4.2.1
ASTM D-6938 Nuclear Method;
or ASTM D-2937 Drive-cylinder.

Acceptance testing of in-place density and moisture content (field density

testing) on compacted fill will be performed at the following rates:
1. Under all foundations - one test every 1077 ft² (100 m²) of each lift.
2. Under area paving - one test every 2153 ft² (200 m²) of each lift. SAES-A-114
A5
3. Road base and sub-base - one test every 2153 ft² (200 m²) of base or Sec. 6.4.2.3
sub-base.
4. Backfill of trenches - one test for every 50 linear ft (15 m) of each lift.
5. General fill - one test every 5382 ft² (500 m²) of each lift.

As a minimum, at least one in-place density test must be performed on

SAES-A-114
A6 every lift of fill and further placement shall not be allowed until the required
Sec. 6.4.2.4
density has been achieved.

Nuclear density gauges, when used, shall have a valid calibration SAES-A-114
A7
certificate per the requirement of ASTM D6938, Sec. 8. Sec. 3.2

Fill or backfill placed beneath footings, grade beams, mats, buildings or

SAES-A-114
A8 process areas shall be compacted to at least 90% of the maximum
Sec. 6.3.6.1
Modified Proctor density as determined by ASTM D1557.

For cohesionless free draining soils, 70% relative density as determined

SAES-A-114
A9 by ASTM D4253 and ASTM D4254 shall be achieved under footings,
Sec. 6.3.6.4
grade beams, mats, buildings or process areas.

Under foundations with static loads over 320kPa and foundations for
vibrating or heavy machinery and pavements, 85% of relative density SAES-A-114
A10
(ASTM D4253/ASTM D4254) for cohesionless soils or 95% of of the Sec. 6.3.6.2
maximum density as determined by ASTM D1557 for cohesive materials.

When the backfill material cannot clearly be classified as cohesive or

SAES-A-114
A11 cohesionless both relative density and Proctor density tests must be
Sec. 6.4.1.1
performed. The backfill shall then be compacted to the greater density.

The compaction requirement for base coarse shall not be less than 98% of
SAES-Q-006
A12 the maximum laboratory dry density as determined by ASTM D1557 or
Sec. 5.2.2.2
AASHTO T180..

The compaction requirement for subbase shall not be less than 95% of the
SAES-Q-006
A13 maximum laboratory dry density as determined by ASTM D1557 or
Sec. 5.2.2.2
AASHTO T180..

Compacted surfaces of fill and backfill shall be finish graded to the cross SAES-A-114
A14
sections, lines, grades, and elevations as indicated on the drawings. Sec. 6.3.7

The depth of the test holes shall be no greater than 300mm (12 inches) SAES-A-114
A15
deep. (ASTM D 2922, Sec. 1.1) Sec. 6.4.2
