Working for a construction company building a new HCA hospital in Florida: We were supposed to reduce the settling the ground under the foundation would do with tamping and some special machinery that I'm not familiar with. (I was 16 and working part-time in the trailer/"office" for a friend of my dad's) After that was done we were supposed to call a state inspector of some sort to arrange an inspection of the soil compaction and expected settling. After getting a pass we would then be allowed to start layering gravel and then pouring the foundation. We arranged the inspection then immediately started layering gravel. Once the inspector showed the following week I was present for the discussion between the PM and the state guy and it basically went:  = PM = Inspector:You really shouldn't have started graveling, none of my readings will be anywhere near accurate.: Oh, our bad. We did do our own tests before hand though.: I guess that's good enough then. You mentioned there's a good steakhouse around here right? Let's go I'm pretty hungry.I recall being pretty sure there was no testing done on our part before we graveled.
