Gentlemen:
This i» to report the results of tests and observation* made in ordsr to inspect the compaction of
filled ground placed on certain areas of Lo Costa Meadow* Unit No. 3 in Carlsbad, California,
formerly a port of the County of Son Diego. The fill* were placed during the period between
July 15, 1971 and July 20, 1972,
The approximate areas and depths of filled ground placed under our inspection in accordance
with the approved specifications ore shown on the attached Drawing No. 1, entitled "Location
of Compacted Filled Ground." The grading plan used for tha placement of Riled ground was
prepared by Rick Engineering Company and approved March 15, 1971.
The approximate locations at which th« fresh were taken and »h« finol test results are presented
on pages T»l to T-26, inclusive, under the "Table of Test Results." The laboratory determina-
tions of the maximum dry densities and optimum moisture contents of the major fill materials are
presented on paces T-27 and T-28, under the "Laboratory Test Results." Some of the maximum
dry densities shown In the "Table of Te»t Results" were combinations of these. The testt were
taken during the weekly periods Indicated below:

The final results of tests and observations Indicate that it>« compacted filled ground ha» b««m
placed at 90 percent of the maximum dry density or greater. It Has been determined that the
fit! materials, compacted to 90 percent of the maximum dry density, have o safe bearing value
of 1930 pounds per square foot for one foot wide continuous footings founded at a minimum
depth and placed five feet or more Inside the top of compacted filled ground slope*. If footings
ore placed closer to the exposed slopes than 5 feet inside the top of compacted filled ground
slopes, these should be deepened one foot below a 1 1/2 horizontal to 1 vertical line projected
outward and downward from o point 5 feet horizontally Inside the top of compacted filled
ground slopes. Tests indicate that the compacted filled ground Is adequate to satisfactorily
support the proposed wood frame dwellings without detrimental settlements.
Expansive clay, silty clay, and sandy clay soili were placed In the upper three feet in Certain
compacted fill oreas and qlso exist In rhe upper three feet below finished grade In certain cut
area*. The final classifications of »he soil conditions existing on each lot ore presented o$

Tyjpe A Lots
Avoid the use of isolated Interior piers T Use continuous interconnected
reinforced footings throughout, and place these at o minimum depth of
two feet below the lowest adjacent exterior final ground surface,
Reinforce and Interconnect continuous!)' with steel bars all interior and
exterior footings with one #5 bar at 3 inches above the bottom of the
footings and one *5 bor placed 1 1/2 inches below »he top of the stems'
of the footings,
Exercise every effort to om/re that the moisture content of the soils in
the upper 18 inches below finished grade is 1 percent to 3 percent greater
than optimgm of the time of placing foundations and

Raised wooden floors that spon betw«wm continuous footings ar« bosf, or
concrete slabs with ot lea»t 6x6 -10/10 welded wire reinforcement and a
mfnlmum of 4 inches of crushed rod* 3/4 to 1 inch In size beneath oil
concrete slabs. A moisture barrier should be provided over the crushed rook
and this should be covered with 2 fach** of sand below concrete stabs.
Separate garage slcdbt from perimeter footings by o 1/2 inch thickness of
construction felt or equivalent, to allow independent movement of garage
slabs relative to perimeter footings. Assure complete separation by extending
hSe Felt over the full depth of the front thickened edae of the garage slab.
Also, cut off the garage door stops at leos* 1/2 inch above the- slab.
