V V V Site Grading The purpose-of the grading operations was for the placement of fill to provide structural V 'V support of the proposed development All vegetation and demolition debris was stripped V and removed from the fill area prior to the placement of any fill soils.

Grading extended 'a minimum of five 'horizohtal feet or. to the depth of fill placed,whichever is greater,'beyond the edge of the proposed foundations. An existing cesspool, loated near the center of the site, Was left in-place,backfilled with sluFry and cut off at approximately 4 feet below proposed grade. The approximate location of the cesspool is shown on the attached Site Plan: Fill soils placed were compacted to,a minimum 90% of the laboratory standard in lifts not. * in excess..of eight inches in thickness. The mximum depth of fill, soils placed was , approximately 6 feet Conventional earthmoving equipment was utilized for compaction control A water truck provided moisture control Our services did not include any surveying of excavation bottom building corners or subgrade elevations during grading operations.:- 'I. . Labóràtory/Field Testing .. - .. The relative compaction was determined.by Sand'Cone Method (ASTM: D1556-00) and by the Drive Tube Method (ASTM D2937-00) The maximum density of the fill soils was obtained by the laboratory standard (ASTM D1557-00) and results are shown on Table I Tests were performed a minimum of every 500 cubic yards placed and every two feet in depth 'of fill placed. A summary of the compàction'tests of the rough grading + operations are described in Appendix B with locations shown on the accompanying plan Additional laboratory tests were performed on representative bulk bag samples of the near surface soils at'the completion of precise grading operations: The tests consisted' of the following: A. Expansion index tests in accordance with the Uniform Building Code Standard No. 29-2 were performed on remolded samples of the upper soils to deteimine the, '0 expansive characteristics and to provide any necessary recommendations for, 0 0 reinforcement of the slabs-on-grade and the foundations Results of these tests are - : provided on Table II in Appendix A. , • • . 0 - .. NorCal Engineering 0 December 18, 2002 Project Number 871000 Page B. Soluble sulfate tests in accordance with California Test Method 417 were performed on representative sails samples to estimate the potential for corrosion of concrete in contact with the on-site soils. Results are provided on Table Ill in Appendix A. Foundation Design. . ' '• . ' . .." All foundations may be designed utilizing a safe bearing capacity of 2,000 psf for an embedded ,depth•of 18 inches into approved compacted fill soils or competent native soils. The bearing value may be increased by 500 psf for each additional foot of depth in excess of the 18 inch minimum depth, up to a maximum of 3,000 psf. A one third, increase may be used when considering short term loading and seismic forces. Slab Recommendations . . • All concrete slabs shall be a 'minimum of four inches in thickness and placed on approved subgrade soils. A vapdr barrier sandwiched between four inches of select ' sand shall be utilized beneath floor slabs which would be sensitive to the infiltration of ' moisture.. All concrete slab areas to receive floor coverings should be moisture testedito ' , meet all manufacturer requirements prior to placement. ' ' ' ' • • ' Corrosion Design Criteria Representative samples of the surficial soils, typical of the subgrade soils expected to be •. encountered within foundation excavations, revealed negligible sulfate concentrations. 'Therefore, all concrete in contact with on site soils shall be designed in: accordance with Table 19A-A-4 of the 1997 Uniform Building Code. Sulfate test results may be found on • • the attached Table UI.
