n Subject: Supplemental Geotechnical Testing
Project: Rancho Santa Fe Road North, Phase 1
Carlsbad, Califomia
Gentlemen:
In accordance with a request from Mr. Plotnikiewicz, Testing Engineers-U.S. Laboratories, Inc. (TE-
USL) has perfbrmed supplemental geotechnical testing at the referenced project. The supplemental
testing consisted of non-destmctive pavement deflection testing and the augering of 10 exploratory
borings, including tiie placement of 7 piezometers, at selected locations on the recentiy constmcted
Rancho Santa Fe Road in Carlsbad, Califomia.
The Supplemental geotechnical testing was prompted by tiie discovery of 2 new pavement areas
distressed to failure located on the southbound lane near stations 189 +50 and 190+00. This report
presents the results of our non-destmctive pavement deflection testing, exploratory borings, and
laboratory testing, and provides our conclusions and recommendations.
Non-Destructive Deflection Testing
The non-destmctive deflection testing of the new pavement was completed from
stations 176+50 tiirough 217+50. There were four test lines established along tiie
lengtii ofthe test area. Line 1 was in the northbound lane, close to the outer edge ofthe
pavement; Line 2 was also in the northbound lane, but close to the median; Line 3 was
in tiie southbound lane, close to the median; and Line 4 was in the southbound lane,
close to the outer edge of tiie pavement. Most of tiie pavement had four inches of
asphalt concrete pavement over either 16 or 18 inches of process miscellaneous base.
This stmctural section was supported on at least eight feet of compacted fill. The fill
appeared similar to the base material and consisted of gravel with a clayey sand or
sandy clay matrix.
Non-destmctive deflection tests were perfonned in 50-foot increments in the test lines
closest to the outer pavement edge. The lines closest to the median area were tested at
100-foot increments. Tests were performed with a falling-weight deflectometer
provided by the County of San Diego. Our geotechnical engineer monitored the testing
and analyzed the test data. A preliminary report has been issued. This report
supersedes the preliminary report.
A total of 225 locations were tested. The test at each location consisted of applying
three different loads and measuring the resulting pavement deflection with seven
sensors spaced outwardly from the load center. Twenty-one test points were obtained

for each test location. The data converted to a Dynamic Stiffiiess Modulus (kips per
inch) that relates varying loads with corresponding deflections.
This data was statically analyzed with the results illustrated on the attached Plate 1.
The right side ofthe distribution curve shows an approximate normal distribution. The
left side appears tmncated, typically due to minimum constmction specification
requirements. For this project, the average minus one standard deviation is used for the
borderline of weaker pavement stmctural section areas.
Plate 2 shows the distribution of test data along the pavement length. Two areas stand
out with grouping of the lower strength data. Area 1 is from about 198+00 to 202+00.
Area 2 is from 208+50 to 214+00. Relatively low deflections spanned across the width
ofthe road in each of these areas. These areas should be monitored for early signs of
pavement distress.
Subsurface Testing
The subsurface investigation was performed on March 19, 2004 and consisted of 10
exploratory borings, identified as C-1 through C-10. The borings were placed at pre-selected
locations on both north and southbound lanes of the newly constmcted Rancho Santa Fe
Road from stations 176+00 to 208+20. A MobUe C-61 drill rig was utiUzed to auger tiie
borings to depths ranging from 6 to 11 feet below the existing asphalt surface. Our staff
geologist logged the borings and collected samples that were sealed in moisture resistant
containers and transported to the laboratory for subsequent testing. Detailed descriptions of
the encountered subsurface materials are provided in the exploration logs in Appendix A
following the text of this report.
At the boring locations, the pavement ranged from 3.5 to 5.0-inches in thickness, with the
majority averaging 4.5 inches. The asphalt was supported by about 18 inches of on-site
processed misceUaneous base followed by 3 to 9 feet of engineered fill, ofwhich consisted of
clayey gravel (cmshed metavolcanic rock) and gravelly clay materials. The fill was generally
damp to moist and dense in consistency, however, moist to very moist soil conditions were
observed at the lower portions of fill above the formational contact at borings C-6, C-8, C-9,
and C-10.
In addition to the borings, piezometers were constmcted in 7 of the 10 borings to monitor
potential water infiltration. The piezometers were placed at depths ranging from 5 to 10 feet
below the existing asphaltic surface. No measurable water was observed in the borings from
the time of constmction through April 25, 2004.
Laboratory Testing
A laboratory-testing program was conducted to evaluate pertinent geotechnical engineering
characteristics. Laboratory testing included visual classification, Atteberg Limits, moisture
content determination, and sieve analyses. All phases ofthe laboratory testing program were
conducted in general accordance with applicable ASTM specifications or other accepted test
method(s). The test results are presented in Appendix B foUowing the text of this report.
46703 Rancho Santa Fe Roadway Realignment and Widening - Supplemental Geotechmcal Testing
Conclusions
Based on the investigative works discussed herein, it is our opinion that the two major factors
contributing to the addressed problems are as follows:
• The utiUzation of on-site materials with highly plastic fines (processed 3-inch minus and
cmshed miscellaneous base derived from metavolcanic rock and soil).
• The introduction of irrigation drainage water and lack of subdrain placement vrithin the
roadway alignment at potential seepage zones.
Recommendations
For ftiture consideration of proposed roadways, the following recommendations are provided for
your consideration:
1. Utilization of CMB (greenbook) in lieu of on-site processed materials would provide a capillary
break and significantly reduce the localized excessive deformation resulting in an extended life of
the pavement.
2. Installation of seepage pits, consisting of clean %-inch rock extends down to the bedrock
interface, with a volume sufficient to infiltrate irrigation water in conjunction with planters. In
addition, subdrainage elements should be installed where seepage zones occur.
3. Utilizing mbberized asphalt to minimize manifestation ofany excessive deflections and thereby
extend the design life ofthe pavement.
