Field Observations Clause Samples
The Field Observations clause establishes the right or obligation for one party, often the client or their representative, to visit and inspect the project site during the course of work. This typically allows for regular or scheduled site visits to monitor progress, verify compliance with specifications, or address concerns as they arise. By enabling direct observation of the work in progress, this clause helps ensure quality control, facilitates communication between parties, and allows for early identification and resolution of potential issues.
Field Observations. All timber was graded in variable log lengths with the Scaling Bureaus Westside/Northwest log rules. The utility wood was given a board ft. volume. Fire Fly TS was cruised using the Variable and Fix plot sample method. Fire Fly is 49% ground base harvesting and 51% cable harvesting. Fire Fly TS is a dominate ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir sale, with a scattered whitewood and hardwood component. Fire Fly ranges in elevation from 1200’-1900’, with good road access. Fire Fly has a southwesterly aspect, with good operator ground. The species composition is ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir at 90%, and Western Hemlock at 8%. Fire damage was observed throughout the sale, which resulted in length deductions in the first log when necessary. Root rot pockets were observed primarily in the southwesterly portion of the sale, which reduced both the basal area and volume/acre. Wendigo TS was cruised using the Variable and Fix plot sample method. Wendigo is 58% ground base harvesting and 42% cable harvesting. Wendigo TS ranges in elevation from 814’-1697’, and consists of a dominant ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir timber type. The species composition of the sale is ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir at 77% and Western Hemlock at 15%. A consistent Western Red Cedar component was observed throughout unit 4b. While cruising unit 4a, 1/10th acre pole plots were installed at each sample point to capture ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir pole volume. High Quality A sort ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir (362mbf) was observed throughout units: 3b, 4a, and 4b. Defect observed on site included: forked or multiple tops, phaeolus schweinitzii, fomes ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ knots, heart rot, sweep, and broken tops.

Field Observations. Description: Periodic field visit to review progress, compliance, inspector performance, safety, Discuss any issues.
Field Observations. Observe work performed by others, including testing, inspection, survey, and programming services for general compliance with the project requirements. • Perform site visits to observe construction work, performance, and witness testing as requested by the City. • Develop comprehensive punch list in conjunction with the City after Substantial Completion for Contractor close-out activities. • Structural Observations required per the International Building Code. Structural Observations performed by the Structural Engineer are different from "Special Inspections" (not included in this scope but provided by the City contracted materials testing firm). o Consultant has included an average of 12 hours per Structural Observation event (including pre-observation coordination with the Contract, site visit observation, and summary Structural Observation Report). o Consultant has estimated there could be up to 3 Structural Observation events, 1 for the concrete foundation, 1 for the concrete slab-on-grade floor base, and 1 for the vertical components of the dryer greenhouse structure. To the extent possible, Structural Observations will be coordinated with bi-weekly construction meetings and concurrent Structural Observations at multiple facilities. • Process Mechanical Observations to review construction progress (e.g., tiling machine installation, thermal floor plate installation, etc.) at different phases of progress completion. Consultant has estimated there could be up to 2 Process Field Observations. To the extent possible, Process Field Observations will be coordinated with bi-weekly construction meetings. o Consultant has included an average of 12 hours per Process Observation event. • Architectural site visits to review construction progress (e.g., plumbing, insulation, finishes, greenhouse structure, punch-list items etc.) at different phases of progress completion. Consultant has estimated there could be up to 2 Architectural Field Observations. To the extent possible, Architectural Field Observations will be coordinated with bi-weekly construction meetings. • Electrical site visits to review construction progress (e.g., power supply coordination, transformers, conduit placement, wiring, panels arc-flash study, punch-list items etc.) at different phases of progress completion. Consultant has estimated there could be up to 6 Electrical Field Observations. To the extent possible, Electrical Field Observations will be coordinated with bi-weekly construction m...
Field Observations. All timber was graded in variable log lengths with the Scaling Bureaus Westside/Northwest log rules. The utility wood was given a board ft. volume. Ocean View was cruised using the Variable plot sample method. Ocean View consists of 95% cable harvesting and 5% ground harvesting. Ocean View has good cable operator ground throughout the sale, with elevations ranging from 1000’- 1700’. Predominant species is ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir, with a scattered component of Western Hemlock and Western Red Cedar. The species composition is ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir at 96%, with an average diameter of 20 inches, and an average bole height of 87 feet. Also scattered throughout the sale was 32mbf of high quality A sort ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir. Defect observed on site included: forked or multiple tops, Schweinitzii, root rot pockets, spike knots, sweep, and broken tops. Observed in the eastern portion of the sale was a decline of both the basal area and volume per acre. Dead and down cedar logs suitable for shake and shingle recovery were observed in the unit. No estimate of the quantity or quality was made during the cruise. However, the sale may contain up to one cord per acre based upon feedback from the district forester.

Primary composition of the sale is large-scattered ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir (80%). Other species present are: red alder (9%), western hemlock (6%), big leaf maple (2%), western red cedar (1%), and Sitka spruce (<1%). There is a small percentage of dead standing timber that is salvageable in unit 2. This volume is denoted in the cruise report by a “D” in the status column. Unit 1 (47 acres) is located a few miles east of unit 2 and 3. It can be reached via the V-line forest road off of South Bank Road. It contains a total volume of 1,475 mbf and averages 30,918 bf/acre. Composition is 69% ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir, 21% red alder, and small amounts of western red cedar and big leaf maple. Average diameter is 19.9”. Average bole height is 72’. Defect averages 5.3% but is much higher for the maple (15.7%). The most common defect deductions are due to spike knots and sweep. Unit 2 (70 acres) is located south of the intersection of the T-Line and Y-7000. It can be reached from Brooklyn Rd. and the T-Line or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Creek Rd. and the Y-Line. It contains a total volume of 3249 mbf and averages 46,410 bf/acre. Composition is 85% ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir, 9% western hemlock, 3% red alder, and small amounts of big leaf maple and Sitka spruce. Average diameter is 24”. Average bole height is 92’. Defect averages 5.9% but is much higher for maple (13.2%). The most common defect deductions are bole damage, spike knots, sweep, crooks, and rot. Expect some salvage logging as <1% of the unit volume is comprised of dead standing ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fir. Grants: 01, 03, 05, 06 Prepared by: E.F.
