Placement and Compaction Clause Samples

The Placement and Compaction clause defines the requirements and procedures for properly placing and compacting materials, such as soil, gravel, or asphalt, during construction projects. It typically specifies the methods, equipment, and compaction standards that must be met to ensure the material achieves the necessary density and stability. For example, it may require that each layer of fill be compacted to a certain percentage of maximum density using approved machinery. The core function of this clause is to ensure the structural integrity and longevity of the constructed work by preventing settlement, shifting, or failure due to improperly placed or compacted materials.
Placement and Compaction. The base course shall be placed to the depths indicated on the drawings and/or as specified by the Engineer or his/her representatives. The gravel shall be placed in a maximum of 6-inch lifts and shall be thoroughly compacted to not less than 95% of the maximum dry density.

Placement and Compaction. All materials placed by the City shall be graded to a finished grade and compacted in not greater than 12 inch lifts to the same standard as a building pad as required under the applicable City building ordinance. The Grading Plan shall be subject to modification from time to time upon the mutual agreement of the parties hereto. However, so long as there is no breach in the placement and compaction requirements set forth herein or in the applicable building code, then in no event shall the City be required to ever remove any of the fill placed on the Property pursuant to the terms hereof.

The contractor shall ensure that all employees are trained and made aware of the importance of quality workmanship and how to achieve quality in changing, non-ideal cold weather conditions. The contractor shall detail a method of achieving acceptable levels of compaction based on soil temperatures, exposure time and temperature, lift thicknesses, base temperature and weather conditions (ambient temperatures and wind chill) to the satisfaction of the Department’s Engineer.
