Ok. I did my filling in May and am set for d German flooring. Do I still need to ram it since rain had been falling on it for long?

I will address you to top it and ram it.

joycluv:
Good job there! Plz apart from Ramming machine,which other instruments can be used for ramming the foundation filling?

No other instrument was used aside that.
We only have enough water on the fillings which really helped us. So we rammed it on laterite soil then top it with sharp sand from erosion,well sharp enough and had hardcores with it.
After topping it up we rammed it again before spreading our DPM.

Will post images soon.
On site @the moment,the rammer machine Working.

More update shortly

Bracing for German.

Present stage and the rammed surface.

Taken some certain measurements for the mechanical guys to start their work after separated having the toilets spot rammed.

The site is getting different gradually as the fence start coming up and the building taken shape. Filling finished but because of the rain that rained heavily in Lagos/abeokuta axis we need to top it up.
Machine was unable to move on the laterite soil which caused a major setback.

Up to work, it's Monday morning.
Fence work started.
Ramming machine is available to start work shortly.
Abeokuta and Lagos axis experienced rain over the night.
The rain had helped so far in raining on the fillings.

Wetting of the fillings
