Since this summary is not all inclusive, it should be read in complete context with the entire report. Site Preparation • No significant topsoil or vegetation was present at the site at the time of the subsurface exploration. Any vegetation that develops prior to site grading should be stripped and removed from the site. • The site is underlain by recently placed compacted fill soils and sandstone and claystone bedrock. The fill soils extend to depths of up to 5Q± feet within Planning Area 5 and were placed under the purview of a geotechnical engineer. The existing fill soils and bedrock possesses relatively high strengths, and medium expansive potentials. • A compaction report prepared by Leighton and Associates indicates that the existing fill soils were placed as compacted structural fill. Leighton indicates that the existing fill soils are suitable for support of the proposed development provided that the cut/fill transitions are mitigated during precise grading. . • Based on the expansive potentials and differing strengths of the engineered fill and bedrock, and in order to provide for a new layer of structural fill that will help mitigate the potential cut/fill transitions, it is recommended that remedial grading be performed within the proposed building pad areas. • The building pad areas underlain by shallow bedrock (Proposed Buildings A -D) should be overexcavated to a depth of at least 3 feet below existing. grade and to a depth of at least 3 feet below proposed pad grade. The depth of overexcavation should be sufficient to provide at least 3 feet of new structural fill beneath the bearing grade of all foundations. • In the remaining portions of the site~ overexcavation should extend to a depth adequate to remove all surficial, weathered soils. • Following completion of the recommended overexcavation, exposed soils should be evaluated by the geotechnical engineer. After the subgrade sqils have been approved by the geotechnical engineer, the resulting soils may be replaced as compacted structural fill. • A precise grading plan review is recommended subsequent to preparation of the plan in order to confirm the recommendations contained herein. Building Foundations • Shallow foundations, supported in newly placed compacted fill. • 2,500 psf maximum allowable soil bearing pressure. ' • Minimum longitudinal steel reinforcement within strip footings: Four (4) No.5 rebars (2 top and 2 bottom), due to medium expansive potential of near surface soils. Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 1 I I, I I ,I' I I' I I I I I I, I' I I I I' I • Due to highly differential fill depths in the eastern area of the site, strip footings within Buildings E and F are recommended to be reinforced with six (6) No.5 rebars (3 top and 3 bottom): Building Floor Slabs • Slab-on-Grade, at least 5 inches thick. • Minimum slab reinforcement: No.3 bars at 18-inches on-center, in both directions. • Due to the highly differential fill depths in the eastern area of the site, floor slab reinforcement within Buildings E and F is recommended to consist of No.4 bars at 18 inches on-center, in both directions.

The scope of services, included review of previous reports, a visual site reconnaissance, subsurface exploration, field and laboratory testing, and geotechnical engineering analysis to provide criteria for preparing design of the building foundations, building floor slabs, and parking lot pavements along with site preparation recommendations and construction considerations for the proposed development. The evaluation of environmental aspects of this site was beyond the scope of services for this geotechnical investigation. Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad; CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 3 I I I I ,I I I I I I I I I' I I I I I I 3.0 SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION 3.1 Site Description The subject site is located within the recently mass graded Bressi Ranch Industrial Park which'is located south of Palomar Airport Road in the city of Carlsbad, California. The specific site is a portion of Planning Area 5 or Lot 40, and consists of 9.B± acres located southwest of the intersection of Palomar Airport Road and Melrose Drive. The general location of the site is illustrated on the Site Location Map, included as Plate '1 in Appendix A of this report. The subject site is an irregular shaped parcel, with overall dimensions of 400 to 700± feet in the north-south direction and BOO± feet in the east-west direction. At the tiine of the subsurface exploration, ground surface cover consisted of exposed' soil with negligible to sparse grass and weed growth. Some of the finished slopes have been recently hydro-seeded to establish vegetation. Site topography consists of gently sloping terrain, dipping downward to the southwest. Topographic information provided to our office indicat(3s that site grades range from a maximum of EI. 445± feet msl (mean sea level) near the northeast property corner toa minimum of EI. 425± feet msl at the southwest property corner. '3.2 Proposed Development Preliminary information regarding the proposed development was obtained from the, site plan prepared by Smith Consulting Architects. This plan, labeled Option A, has been provided to our office by the client. This plan indicates that the new development will consist of fifteen (15) separate buildings which will be constructed in,two phases. The proposed building footprints will range in size from 5,700± ft2 to B,200± ft2. Detailed structural information is not currently ,available. It is, however, assumed that the buildings will be of concrete tilt-up construction, typically supported on conventional shallow foundation systems and concrete slabs on grade. Bas~d on the assumed construction, maximum column and wall loads are expected to be on the order of 60 kips and 3 kips per linear foot, respectively. 3.3 Previous Studies As part of our investigation of the overall site, including Planning Areas PA-1 through PA-5, we were provided with several geotechnical reports. The geotechnical reports, Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA , Project No. 04G243-1 Page 4 I I I I I I I I I I ,I I I I I I I' I I provided to us consist of preliminary and supplemental geotechnical investigations, a summary report of mass grading, and as graded reports of mass grading. The subject site has been recently rough graded to its current configuration under the purview of Leighton and Associates, Inc. The reports which are applicable to the entire site, including all of the Planning Areas, are summarized below: • Geotechnical Investigation. Bressi Ranch Corporate Center. Planning Areas 1 through 5. SEC of Palomar Airport Road and EI Camino Real. Carlsbad, California; prepared for Sares Regis Group by Southern California Geotechnical, Inc., dated May 3, 2004, Project No. 03G259-2. This report presents the results of our geotechnical investigation of Planning Areas 1 through 5 subsequent to the mass grading. Subsurface exploration performed as part of this geotechnical investigation included twenty (20) borings advanced to depths of 5 to 19%± feet below currently existing site grades'. The maximum depth of the borings was limited to less than 20 feet due to permit restrictions imposed by the San Diego County Department of Environmental Health (DEH). Based on the,subsurface conditions, the site is underlain by recently placed compacted, fill soils and sandstone and claystone bedrock. The fill soils extend to depths of up to 90± feet and were placed under the purview of a geotechnical engineer. The existing fill soils and bedrock possesses relatively high strengths, and highly variable expansive potentials, '. Based on the variable expansive potentials and differing strengths of the engineered fill and bedrock, and in order to provide for a new layer of structural fill that will help mitigate the potential cut/fill transitions, it was recommended that remedial grading be performed within the proposed building pad areas. The building pad areas were recommended to be overexcavated to a depth of at least 5 feet below existing grade and to a depth of at least 4 feet below proposed pad grade. The depth of overexcavation should be sufficient to provide at least 3 feet of new structural fill beneath the bearing grade of all foundations. • Supplemental Geotechnical Investigation for Mass Grading. Bressi Ranch. Carlsbad. California, prepared for Lennar Homes by Leighton and, Associates, Inc., dated March 14,2001, Project No. 971009-005. This report presents the results of a supplemental geotechnical investigation to update their earlier preliminary geotechnical report prepared in 1997. Subsurface exploration performed as part of the supplemental geotechnical investigation included eight (8) large diameter borings and fifty-six (56) exploratory trenches. Logs qf thes"e supplemental borings and trenches as well as previous work by Leighton' and others is included in the report and summarized on the Geotechnical Map included therein. Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 5 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I' I Based on the presented information, the subject site is primarily underlain by sandstone bedrock. The bedrock is indicated to consist of the Tertiary age Santiago formation, which is described as massively bedded sandstone with some zones of claystone and siltstone. Some minor areas of shallow undocumented fill, terrace deposits, and . alluvial/colluvial soils were also mapped within the boundaries of the subject site. Although the majority of the mapped, larger ancient landslides are located outside the boundaries of the subject site, two (2) small ancient landslides were mapped on the subject site, east of PA-1 and PA-2. Due to their small scale, they were recommended to be removed in their entirety and replaced as compacted fill. Remedial grading recommendations contained in this report indicate that all undocumented fill and alluvial/colluvial soils should be completely removed to competent material. • Supplemental Geotechnical Landslide Investigation. Planning Areas PA-1, PA-2, and PA-10 through PA-12, Bressi Ranch, Carlsbad, California, prepared for Lennar Communities by Leighton and Associates, Inc., dated February 12, 2003, Project No. 971009-007. This report presents the results of a supplemental geotechnical landslide investigation for specific portions of the site. Subsurface exploration performed as .part of the supplemental geotechnical landslide investigation included nine (9) large diameter borings and five (5) exploratory trenches in the areas of the previously mapped ancient landslides. Logs of these additional borings and trenches as well as revised cross sections are included in the report. The area of the subject site addressed by this report includes the eastern portion of' planning areas PA-1 and PA-2 where several nested ancient landslides were mapped. Cross Sections E-E' and P-P' depict the mapped geologic conditions and the recommended remedial grading, which consisted of complete removal of the landslides and replacement as engineered fill. This report restates the previous remedial grading recommendations and provides slope stability calculations to justifY the proposed grading configurations. • Geotechnical Recommendations Concerning 95 Percent Relative Compaction of Fill Deeper than 40 Feet. Bressi Ranch, ·Carlsbad, California, prepared for Lennar Communities by Leighton and Associates, Inc .. , dated February 13, 2003, Project No. 971009-007. This report addresses the settlement potential of deep fill areas and provides recommendations to reduce the time period for the majority of the settlement to occur. In several areas of the overall project, fills up to 80 to 90± feet in thickness were planned to achieve the design grades. Deep fill areas on the subject site are located in the eastern portion of PA-2, and two small areas wit~in PA-3 and PA-5. The report recommends that all structural fills below a depth of 40 feet from finish grade be compacted to at least 95 percent of the ASTM D-1557 maximum dry density, and estimates that the time period for the majority of the settlement to occur will be reduced .:.,.',,:: Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 6 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I from 6 to 12 months to 3 to 8+ months. Near surface settlement monuments were recommended to be installed immediately after rough grading, with survey intervals of once a week for the first month, then twice a month for 3 months, and then monthly to determine completion primary settlement of deep fills. The recommended locations of the near surface settlement monuments are indicated to be contained on an index map within this report, however, the copy provided to us does not contain this plan. • Summary of the As-Graded Geotechnical Conditions and Partial Completion of Rough and Fine Grading, Planning Areas PA-1 Through PA-5, Bressi Ranch, Carlsbad, California, prepared for Lennar Communities by Leighton and' Associates, Inc., dated January 20,2004, Project No. 971009-014. This summary report indicates that grading of Planning Areas PA-1 through PA-3 is essentially complete, and that grading is ongoing in Planning Areas' PA-4 and PA-5. Grading operations, were reportedly performed in general accordance with the recommendations' presented in Leighton's previous geotechnical reports. Geotechnical issues presented in this summary report which were not discussed in the previous reports include the presence of inactive faults within PA-4 and PA-5, perched groundwater within the overexcavated tributary canyons on the east side of PA-1 and PA-2, oversize materials within the engineered fills, high to very high expansive soils at or near finish grade, and some severe sulfate concentrations which would require the use of specialized concrete mix designs. • As Graded Report of' Mass Grading, Planning Areas pA-'1; PA-2, and PA-3, Metropolitan Street, and a Portion of Town Garden Road, Gateway Road, and Alicante Road, Carlsbad Tract No. 00-06, Bressi Ranch, Carlsbad,' California, prepared for Lennar Communities by Leighton and Associates, Inc., dateq April 15,2004, Project No. 971009-014 This report documents the mass grading of Planning Areas PA-1, PA-2, and PA-3 as well as a portion of the interior streets. Most of the information contained in this report was presented in the January 20, 2004 summary report. The conclusions and recommendations are also similar to the previous report. With respect to the deep fills on this portion of the site, Leighton concluded that most of the anticipated settlement is complete, but the seven settlement monuments should be continued to be monitored. Soluble sulfate test results range from negligible to severe, and expansion index test results range from low (EI = 46) to very high (EI = 163). Preliminary pavement sections are presented and are based on assumed R-value of 12. Maximum cuts and fills within Planning Areas PA-1, PA-2, and PA-3 are documented as 25 and 90 feet, respectively. Fill soils below a depth of 40 feet were compacted to at least 95% of ASTM 1557 maximum dry density. • Addendum to As-Graded Reports of Mass Grading Concerning the Completion of Settlement Monitoring, Planning Areas PA-1 through PA-5, Bressi Ranch, Proposed Lot 40 Business Park..,. Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 , Page 7 I I I I ,I I I I I I I I. I I I I I I I Carlsbad. California, prepared for Lennar Communities by Leighton and Associates, Inc., dated October 11,2004, Project No. 971009-014 This report presents the data collected from the settlement monitoring program for the deep fill (greater than 40 feet) areas of the entire site. The settlement monitoring data was collected over a period of 5 to 6 months. Based on the collected data, Leighton concludes that the primary settlement of the fill soils is essentially complete, and that construction of improvements within Planning Areas PA-1 through PA-5 may begin. Secondary consolidation settlement of deep fills is estimated to be less than 1 to 3 inches depending on the depth of fill. Differential settlements are estimat~d to be on th.e order of % inch in 25 feet.

The maximum depth of our borings was limited to less than 20 feet due to permit restrictions imposed by the San Diego County Department of Environmental Health (DEH). All of the borings were logged during excavation by a member of our staff. . Representative bulk and in-situ soil samples were taken during drilling. Relatively undisturbed in-situ samples were taken with a split barrel "California Sampler" containing a series of one inch long, 2.416± inch diameter brass rings. This sa~pling method is described in ASTM Test Method 0-3550. In-situ samples were also taken using a 1.4± inch inside diameter split spoon sampler, in general accordance with ASTM 0-1586. Both of these samplers are driven into the ground with successive blows of a 140-pound weight falling 30 inches. The blow counts obtained during driving are recorded for further analysis. Bulk samples were taken at periodic locations in the trenches. The bulk samples were collected in plastic bags to retain their original moisture content. The relatively undisturbed ring samples were placed ·in molded plastic sleeves that were then sealed and transported to our laboratory. The approximate location of the borings are indicated on the Boring Location Plan, included as Plate 2 of this report. The Boring Logs, which illustrate the conditions encountered at the boring locations, as well as· some of the results· of the· laboratory . testing, are included in Appendix B. . 4.2 Geotechnical Conditions Presented below is a generalized summary of the subsurface conditions encountered at the boring locations. More detailed descriptions of the conditions encountered are illustrated on the Boring Logs, included in Appendix B. Artificial Fill Artificial fill soils were encountered at the ground surface at all eight (8) of the boring locations. These fill soils extend to depths of 1 to at least 19% feet below existing grade, the maximum depth of our borings. As previously discussed, the fill soils within PA-5 are documented to have maximum depths of 45 to 50± feet. The fill soils encountered in the borings generally consist of stiff to very stiff, silty to sandy clays, and medium dense to dense silty sands, clayey sands and sandy silts. Occasional samples Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1· Page 9 I I I I I I I I I I· I I I I I I I I I of the fill materials possess minor debris content including bedrock fragments, asphalt, concrete, etc. The fill soils possess moderately high strengths, moisture contents near or above optimum and based on their color mottling and composition, appeared to be 'well mixed. Bedrock Bedrock was encountered beneath the fill soils at six of the eight boring locations. The bedrock encountered at this site consists of Tertiary age Santiago formation, which is comprised of dense to very dense sandstone with some zones ·of claystone and siltstone. Bedding within the Santiago formation on site is generally massive with no significant planes of weakness or discontinuities. The sandstone unit is typically light gray in color, contains moderate iron oxide staining, and is comprised of weakly cemented silty fine sand. The siltstone unit is typically light gray to gray in color, contains moderate iron oxide staining, and is comprised of fine sandy silt. The clays~one unit is typically dark gray to gray green in color, contains some shell fragments, gypsum veins, and is comprised of silts and clays. Groundwater Based on the water level measurements, and the moisture contents of the recovered soil samples, the static groundwater table is considered to have existed at a depth in excess of 20± feet at the time of the subsurface exploration. Further, based on the conditions documented in the mass grading report by Leighton, no groundwater was encountered during grading. Therefore, groundwater is expected to be at depths greater than the extent of the fill soils, which are 45 to 50± feet thick within PA-5. 4.3 Geologic Conditions Geologic research indicates that the site is underlain by sandstone mapped as the Santiago' Formation (Map Symbol Tsa) with nearly horizontal bedding attitudes. The primary available reference applicable to the subject site is DMG Open-File Report 96- 02. Geologic Map of the Northwestern Part of San Diego County. Califorhia, by California Division of Mines and Geology, 1996. Based on the materials encountered in the exploratory borings, it is our opinion the site is underlain .by sandstone, siltstone and claystone bedrock consisting of the Santiago formation (Map Symbol Tsa). The bedrock encountered in the exploratory borings arid observed at the ground surface is generally massively bedded and structure is comprised of nearly horizontal bedding with some moderately developed jOints in the upper, less weathered portions of the bedrock. Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 10 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 5.0 LABORATORY TESTING The soil samples recovered from the subsurface exploration were returned to our laboratory for further testing to determine selected physical and engineering properties of the soils. The tests are briefly discussed below. It should be noted that the test results are specific to the actual samples tested, and variations could be expected at other locations and depths. . Classification All recovered soil samples were classified using the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS), in accordance with ASTM 0-2488. Field identifications were then supplemented with additional visual classifications and/or by laboratory testing. The USCS classifications are shown on the Boring Logs and Trench Logs and are periodically referenced throughout this report. . In-situ Density and Moisture Content The density has been determined for selected relatively undisturbed ring samples. These densities were determined in general accordance with the method presented in ASTM 0-2937. The results are recorded as dry unit weight in pounds per cubic foot. The moisture contents are determined in accordance with ASTM 0-2216, and are expressed as a percentage of the dry weight. These test results are presented on the Boring Logs. Consolidation Selected soil samples have been tested to determine their consolidation potential, in accordance with ASTM 0-2435. The testing apparatus is designed to accept either natural or remolded samples in a one-inch high ring, approximately 2.416 inches in diameter. Each sample is then loaded incrementally in a geometric. progression and the resulting deflection is recorded at selected time intervals. Porous stones are in contact with the top and bottom of the sample to permit the addition ot release of pore . water. The samples are typically inundated with water at an intermediate load to determine their potential for collapse or heave. The results of the consolidation testing are plotted on Plates C-1 through C-11 in Appendix C of this report. Maximum Dry Density and Optimum Moisture Content A representative bulk sample has been tested for its maximum dry density and optimum moisture content. The results have been obtained using the Modified Proctor procedure, per ASTM 0-1557. These tests are generally used to compare the in-situ densities of undisturbed field samples, and for later compaction testing. Additional ~ .. : ': ". Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 11 I I testing of other soil types or soil mixes may be necessary at a later date. The results of I the testing are plotted on Plate C-12 in Appendix C of this report. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Expansion Index The expansion potential of the on-site soils was determined in general accordance with Uniform Building Code (UBC) Standard 18-2. The testing apparatus is designed to accept a 4-inch diameter, 1-in high, remolded sample. The sample is initially remolded to 50 ± 1 percent saturation and then loaded with a surcharge equivalent to 144 pouhds per square foot. The sample is then inundated with water, and allowed to swell against . the surcharge. The resultant swell or consolidation is recorded after a 24-hour period. The results of the EI testing are as follows: Sample Identification B-4 @ 0 to 5 feet Soluble Sulfates Expansion Index 63 Expansive Potential Medium Representative samples of the near-surface soils have been submitted to a subcontracted analytical laboratory for determination of soluble sulfate content. Soluble sulfates· are naturally present in soils, and if the concentration is high enough, can result in degradation of concrete which comes into contaCt with these soils. The results of the soluble sulfate testing are presented below, and are discussed further in·8 subsequent section of this report.

Page 12 I I I I I I I I I I I I I· I I I I I I 6.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Based on the results of our review, field exploration, laboratory testing and geotechnical analysis, the proposed development is considered feasible from a geotechnical standpoint. The recommendations contained in this report should be taken into the design, construction, and grading considerations. The recommendations are contingent upon all grading and foundation construction activities being monitored by the geotechnical engineer of record. The Grading Guide Specifications, included as Appendix D, should be considered part of this report, and should be incorporated into the project specifications. The contractor and/or owner of the development should bring to the attention of the geotechnical engineer any conditions that differ from those stated in this report, or which may be detrimental for the development. Following completion of the recommended grading and foundation construction procedures, the subject site is considered suitable for its intended use. 6.1 Seismic Design Considerations The subject site is located in an area which is subject to strong ground motioDs due to earthquakes. The completion of a site specific seismic hazards analysis is beyond the scope of services for this geotechnical investigation. However, it should be noted that numerous faults capable of producing significant ground motions are located near the subject site. Due to economic considerations, it is not generally considered reasonable to design a structure that is not susceptible to earthquake damage. Therefore, significant damage to structures may be unavoidable during large earthquakes .. The proposed structures should, however, be designed to resist strl!ctural collapse and thereby provide reasonable protection from serious injury, catastrophic property . damage and loss of life. Faulting. and Seismicity Research of available maps indicates that the subject site is not located within an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone. Therefore, the possibility of significant fault rupture on the site is considered to be low. Seismic Design Parameters The proposed development must be designed in accordance with the requirement~ of the latest edition of the Uniform Building Code (UBC). The UBC provides procedures for earthquake resistant structural design that include considerations for on-site soil conditions, seismic zoning, oCGup~ncy, and the configur.ation of the structure including the structural system and height. The seismic design parameters presented below ~re based on the seismic zone, soil profile, and the proximity of known faults with respect to the subject site. Proposed Lot 40 Business Park:'" Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 13 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I The 1997 UBC Design Parameters have been generated using UBCSEIS, a computer program published by Thomas F. Blake (January 1998). The table below is a compilation of the data provided by UBCSEIS, and represents the largest design values presented by each type of fault. A copy of the output generated from this program is included in Appendix E of this report. A copy of the Design Response Spectrum, as generated by UBCSEIS is also included in Appendix E. Based on this output, the following parameters may be utilized for the subject site: • Nearest Type A Fault: • Nearest Type B Fault: • Soil Profile Type: • Seismic Zone Factor (2): • Seismic Coefficient (Ca): • Seismic Coefficient (Cv): • Near-Source Factor (Na) • Near-Source Factor (Nv) Elsinore-Julian (36 km) Rose Canyon (11 km) So 0.40 0.44 0.64 1.0 1.0 The design procedures presented by the Uniform Building Code (UBC) are intended to protect life safety. Structures designed using these minimum design procedures may experience significant cosmetic damage and serious economic loss. The use of more conservative seismic design parameters would provide increased safety and' a lower' potential for cosmetic damage and economic loss during 'a lar~j'e seismic event. Ultimately, the structural engineer and the project owner must determine what level of risk is acceptable and assign appropriate seismic values to be used in the design of the proposed structure. Liquefaction Liquefaction is the loss of strength in generally cohesionless, saturated soils 'when the pore-water pressure induced in the soil by a seismic event becomes equal to or exceeds the overburden pressure. The primary factors which influence, the potential for liquefaction include groundwater table elevation, soil type and grain size characteri~tics, relative density of the soil, initial confining pressure, and intensity and duration of ground shaking. The depth within which the occurrence of liquefaction may impact surface improvements is generally identified as the upper 50 feet below the existing ground surface. Liquefaction potential is greater in saturated, loose, poorly graded fine sands with a mean (d50) grain size in the range of 0.075 to 0.2 mni (Seed and Idriss,: 1971). Clayey (cohesive) soils or soils which possess clay particles (d<0.005mm) in excess of 20 percent (Seed and Idriss, 1982) are generally not considered to be susceptible to liquefaction, nor are those soils which are above the historic static groundwater table. The subsurface conditions encountered at the subject site are not conducive to liquefaction. These conditions cons!st of structural fill soils underlain by high strength Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad" CA , Project No. 04G243-1 ' Page 14 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I sandstone and claystone bedrock, neither of which are susceptible to earthquake- induced liquefaction. Based on the subsurface conditions, liquefaction is not considered to be a significant design concern for this project. 6.2 Geotechnical Design Considerations General The subject site is underlain by variable depths of compacted fill soils underlain by sandstone and claystone bedrock. The fill soil~, extendil)g to maximum depths of 45 to 50± feet within PA-5, generally consist of moderate strength silty to sandy cI&ys, silty sands, clayey sands and sandy silts. Based on the compaction report prepared by Leighton and Associates, these fill materials represent compacted structural fills, placed during recent mass grading operations. Laboratory testing indicates th~t these m~terials possess generally favorable consolidation characteristics. However, the depth of fill soils varies significantly across the site and several cut/fill transitions between the fill and bedrock were created by the mass grading procedures. In addition, the proposed grading to establish the new finished floor elevations is expected to result in the .. formation of numerous additional cut/fill transitions. The resultant subsurface profile is expected to provide variable support characteristics for the foundations of the proposed structures. Based on these considerations, it is recommended that remedial grading be performed· within the new building areas in order to provide a subgrade suitable for support of the foundations and floor slabs of the new structures. The primary geotechnical design considerations that will impact the proposed development are the presence of highly differential fill depths within some areas of the site, and the fact that the proposed grading will create cut/fill transitions within most of the proposed building areas. These considerations are discussed in detail in· the following sections of this report. Grading and Foundation Plan Review The conclusions and recommendations presented in this report are based on· the preliminary plans provided to our office. No grading plans were available at the time of this report. Once preliminary grading plans become available, it is recommended that they be provided to our office for review with regard to the conclusions and recommendations presented herein. In addition, a foundation plan was not available at the time of this report. It is recommended that preliminary foundation plans be provided to our office once they become available. Depending on the results of our review, some modifications to the recommendations contained in this report may be warranted. Differential Fill Depths Buildings E and F are underlain by significant differential fill depths, due to the previously completed mass grading. The fill depths within Building E are expected to Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 15 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I range from 10± to 45± feet, and the fill depths in the area of Building F are expected to range from 30± to 50± feet. These buildings will require speci.al geotechnical design considerations to reduce the potential effects of differential settlements that could be caused by the differential fill depths in this area of the site. These considerations include the use of additional steel reinforcement within the foundations and floor slabs of the affected structures. Settlement The results of the consolidation/collapse testing indicate that the existing fill soils are not subject to Significant collapse upon moisture infiltration. In addition, the existing fill soils do not exhibit significant consolidation when exposed to load increases in the range of those that will be imposed by the new foundations. Provided that the recommendations contained within this report are implemented in the structural design and construction of the proposed buildings, the post-construction settlements are expected to be within tolerable limits. Based on our understanding of the proposed development, new fills in the areas of the existing deep fills are expected to be less than 5 or 6± feet, and will not induce significant new settlements. Following completion of the recommended grading, the post-construction static settlements are expected to be within tolerable limits. Settlement of Existing Fill Soils As discussed above, the subject site is underlain by engineered fill soils, extending to depths of up to 45 to 50± feet. These materials represent engineered fill soils, monitored during placement by Leighton. Minor amounts of additional settlement may occur due to secondary consolidation effects. The extent of secondary consolidation is difficult to assess precisely, but may be in the range of 0.1 to 0.3 percent· of the fill thickness, thus settlements of 0.6± to 1.8± inches may occur. Based on the dJfferential fill thickness that will exist across some of the building areas, the structural design will need to consider the distortions that could be caused by the consolidation of the fill soils. Cut/Fill Transitions Buildings A, B, C and D are closely underlain by dense bedrock. It is expected that cuts and fills of up to 1 to 3± feet will be necessary within these building areas to achieve the proposed subgrade elevations. Therefore, cut/fill transitions are expected to exist within these building areas after completion of the proposed grading. This cut/fill transition condition at bearing grade raises a potential for additional differential settlement. This report contains recommendations for additional remedial grading within these building pads to remove this cut/fill transition. It should be noted that the extent of areas that will require overexcavation to· mitigate cut/fill transitions will depend upon the final grades that are established Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 16 I I throughout the site. Therefore, the extent of this remedial grading may change, I following our review of the preliminary grading plan. I I I I I I I. I I I I I I I· I I Expansion Most of the on-site soils consist of medium expansive soils and bedrock (EI =63). However, isolated areas of highly expansive soils may be present on the site. Based on the presence of expansive soils, special care should be taken to properly moisture condition and maintain adequate moisture content within all subgrade soils as well as newly placed fill soils. The foundation and floor slab design recommendations contained within this report are made in consideration of the expansion index test results. It is expected that significant blending of the on-site soils will occur during precise grading procedures, and that the resulting building pad subgrade soils will possess medium expansion potentials. It is recommended that additional expansion index testing be conducted at the completion of precise grading to verify the expansion potential of the as-graded building pads. . Shrinkage/Subsidence Based on the results of the laboratory testing, removal and recompaction of the existing near-surface engineered fill soils is estimated to result in average shrinkage or bulking of less than 5 percent. Where the existing bedrock is overexcavated and replaced as structural fill, bulking on the order of 0 to 5 percent is expected. . . Minor ground subsidence is expected to occur in the soils below the zone of removal due to settlement and machinery working. The subsidence is estimated to be 0.1 feet. . These estimates may be used for grading in areas that are underlain by existing engineered fill soils. No significant subsidence will occur in areas that are immediate'ly underlain by sandstone bedrock. . . These estimates are based on previous experience and the subsurface conditions encountered at the boring locations. The actual amount of subsidence is expected to be variable and will be dependant on the type of machinery used, repetitions of use, 'and dynamic effects, all of which are difficult to assess precisely. Sulfates The results of the soluble sulfate testing, as discussed in Section 5.0 of this report, indicate that the on-site soils possess moderate to severe concentrations of soluble sulfates, with regard to attack of subsurface concrete. Therefore, specialized sulfate resistant concrete mix designs will be necessary. It is recommended that .additional testing be performed during precise grading. However, based on the results of the testing indicating severe sulfate concentrations, with respect to Uniform Building Code and Portland Cement Association (peA) guidelines, the UBC requires that all concrete which will come into contact with these soils incorporate the following characteristics: , ..... . . -::~ '. ..

I I I I I I • Cement Type: • Minimum Compressive Strength (f c): • Maximum Water/Cement Ratio: V (Five) 4,500 psi 0.45 All structural concrete should meet the requirements of the Uniform Building Code and the American Concrete Institute. Furthermore, any imported fill soils brought to the site should be tested for sulfate content. Setbacks In accordance with Uniform Building Code (UBC) requirements, a" footings should maintain a minimum horizontal setback of H/3, where H equals the slope height, measured from the outside face of the footing to any descending slope face. This setback should not be less than 7 feet, nor need it be greater than 40 feet. 6.3 Site Grading Recommendations The grading recommendations presented below are based on the subsurface conditions encountered at the boring locations and our understanding of the proposed development. We recommend that all grading activities be completed in. acc;ordance with the Grading Guide Specifications included as Appendix D of this report, unless superseded by site specific recommendations presented below. Site Stripping The grading recommendations presented below are based on the subsurface conditions encountered at the boring locations and our understanding of the proposed development. We recommend that all grading activities be completed in accordance with the Grading Guide Specifications included as Appendix D of this report, unless superseded by site-specific recommendations presented below. Site Stripping and Demolition Initial site preparation should include stripping of any vegetation and organic debris. Based on conditions observed at the time of the subsurface exploration, no significant stripping of vegetation or topsoil is expected to be necessary. However, if vegetation develops subsequent to the date of our reconnaissance, it should be removed off site. Initial grading operations should also include abandonment of th~ existing detent/on basin, located in the southwest corners of the site. Any softened soils, silt deposits, water, or other unsuitable materials should be removed from the detention basin. Removals should extend to a depth of suitable structural compaCted fill soils· or bedrock. Where the detention basins are located within proposed building areas, ~he building pad overexcavation recommendations should also be implemented.· ;"".': ---:'. ::'.: . . Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 18 I :1, I I I' \1 I I I 'I I 'I' ,I I ,I I I I I' Treatmeht of Existing Soils: Building Pads As discussed above, remedial grading will be necessary in several of the building areas to mitigate potential cut/fill transitions that will exist at or near the proposed foundation bearing grade. Remedial grading should be performed within the areas of Buildings A, B, C, and D to remove and replace a portion of the dense bedrock as engineered fill.. The existing bedrock should be overexcavated to provide for a new layer of compacted structural fill, extending to a depth of at least 3 feet below proposed foundation bearing grade, throughout the building areas. Based on conditions encountered at the boring locations, it is expected that such overexcavation will be required throughout Building A, as well , as most of Building B. Buildings C and D are partially underlain by fill soils extending to depths of 2 to 6± feet. Depending upon the proposed pad elevations within these buildings, overexcavation may not be required within Buildings C and D. In general, the overexcavations should extend at least 5 feet beyond the, building perimeters. If the proposed structures incorporate any exterior columns (such as' for a canopy or overhang) the area of overexcavation should also encompass these areas. Within areas of the proposed structures that do not require overexcavation per the recommendations presented above, it is recommended that the existing fills be overexcavated to a depth of at least 1 foot below existing grad~, to remove any existing weathered and/or softened fill soils, as well as to prepare the subgrade for new fill placement. Following completion of the overexcavations, the subgrade soils (or bedrock) within 'the building areas should be evaluated by the geotechnical engineer 'to verify their suitability to serve as the structural fill subgrade, as well as to support the foundation loads of -the' new structure. This evaluation should include proofrolling with a heavy rubber-tired vehicle to identify any soft, loose or otherwise unstable soils that must be removed. Some localized areas of deeper excavation may be required if loose, porous, or low density soils are encountered at the bottom of the overexcavation. The exposed subgrade soils should then be scarified to a depth of 12 inches,. moisture conditioned to 2 to 4 percent above optimum moisture content, and recompacted. Treatment of Existing Soils: Retaining Walls and Site Walls The existing soils within the areas of any proposed retaining walls underlain by less than 2 feet of existing engineered fill soils should be overexcavated to a depth of 2 feet below foundation bearing grade and replaced as compacted structural fill, as discussed above for the proposed building pqd. Subgrade soils if! ~reas of non-retaining site walls should be overexcavated to.a depth of 1 foot below prOposed bearing grade, if not underlain by at lest 1 foot of existing engineered fill soils. In both cases, the overexcavation subgrade soils should be evaluated by the geotechnical engineer prior to scarifying, moisture conditioning and recompacting the upper 12 inches of exposed Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 : Page.19 I I 'I I· I' I I I· I I I I ,Ii I I I I' I I subgrade soils. In areas where unsuitable fill soils. are encountered at foundation subgrade level, additional overexcavation or deepened footings will be necessary. The previously excavated soils may then be replaced as compacted structural fill. Treatment of Existing Soils: Parking Areas Overexcavation of the existing fill soils in the new parking areas is generally not considered warranted, with the exception of any areas where lower strength soils are identified -by the geotechnical engineer during grading. Subgrade preparation in the remaining new parking areas should initially consist of completion of cuts where required. The geotechnical engineer should then evaluate the subgrade to identify any areas of unsuitable soils. Based on conditions observed at the site at the time of drilling, no significant overexcavation is expected to be necessary within the new parking areas. The subgrade soils should then be scarified to a depth of 12± inches, moisture conditioned to 2 to 4± percent above optimum, and recompacted to at least 90 percent of the ASTM 0-1557 maximum dry density. Depending upon the actual finished grades, which have not yet been established, portions of the parking lot subgrades may be immediately underlain by bedrock. These materials may be used for direct pavement subgrade support. However, the owner and/or developer of the project should understand that minor amounts of reflective cracking and/or minor differential movements should be expected to occur near the location of the transitions between these bedrock materials and the adjacent engineered fill. If such cracking or minor differential movements within the pavements is not considered acceptable, additional overexcavation should be performed within the cut portions of the parking areas. Fill Placement • -Fill soils should be placed in thin (6± inches), near-horizontal lifts, moisture conditioned to 2 to 4 percent above optimum moisture content, and compacted. ' • On-site soils may be used for fill provided they are cleaned of any debris or oversized materials to the satisfaction of the geotechnical engineer. • All grading and fill placement activities should be completed in accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Building Code and the grading code of the City of Carlsbad. • All fill soils should be compacted to at least 90 percent of the ASTM 0-1557 maximum dry density. Fill soils should be well mixed. • Compaction tests should be performed periodically by the geotechnical engineer as random verification of compaction and moisture content. These tests are intended to aid the contractor. Since the tests are taken at discrete locations and depths, they may not be indicative of the entire fill and therefore should not relieve the contractor of his responsibility to meet the job specifications.

CA Project No. 04G243-1 , Page20 I I I I) 'I' I, 'I 1/ I I: Ii I: I 'I I I I 1 I Imported Structural Fill All imported structural fill should consist of low expansive (EI < 30), well graded soils possessing at least 10 percent fines (that portion of the sample passing the No. 200 sieve). Additional specifications for structural fill are presented in the Grading Guide Specifications, included as Appendix D. . Utility Trench Backfill In general, all utility trench backfill should be compacted to at least 90 percent of the ASTM 0-1557 maximum dry density. As an alternative, a clean sand (minimum Sand Equivalent of 30) may be placed within trenches and flooded in place. Compacted trench backfill should conform to the requirements of the local grading code, and more restrictive requirements may be indicated by the City of Carlsbad. Materials used to backfill trenches should consist of well graded granular soils with a maximum particle size of 3 inches. All utility trench backfills should be witnessed by the geotechnical engineer. The trench backfill soils should be compaction tested where possible; probed and visually evaluated elsewhere. Utility trenches which parallel a footing, and extending below a 1h:1v plane projected from the outside edge of the footing should be backfilled with structural fill soils, compacted to at least 90 percent of the ASTM 0-1557 standard. Sand or pea gravel backfill, unless it is similar to the native soils, should not be used for these trenches. 6.4 Construction Considerations Moisture Sensitive Subgrade Soils Some of the near surface soils possess appreciable silt and clay content and will become unstable if exposed to significant moisture infiltration or disturbance by construction traffic. In addition, based on their granular contant, the on-site soils will . also be susceptible to erosion. The site should, therefore, be graded to prevent ponding of surface water and to prevent water from running into excavations. Excavation Considerations Based on conditions encountered at the boring locations, the bedrock that underlies the subject site possesses a dense to very dense relative density, but is somewhat friable: It' is expected that it will be feasible to utilize conventional grading equipment within the depths that were explored by the borings. However, some difficulty may be encountered during excavation, possibly requiring large single shank-equipped bulldozers, excavators, etc. The grading contractor should verify the need for special excavation equipment prior to bidding the project. . Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA . Project No. 04G243-1 Page 21 ': ':_"::: :',. .. I I I II I' I 'I I I I I I: I I ~ I' I 'I I, I Based on the presence of predominantly granular soils throughout the development area, minor to moderate caving of shallow excavations may to occur. Flattened excavation slopes may be sufficient to mitigate caving of shallow excavations, although deeper excavations may require some form of external stabilization such as shoring or bracing. Temporary excavation slopes should be no steeper than 1 h:1v. All excavation activities on this site should be conducted in accordance with Cal-OSHA regulations. Expansive Soils As previously discussed the on site soils have been determined to possess a medium. to high expansion potential. It is recommended that the highly expansive soils be blended with less expansive soils to create structural fills with a low to medium expansive potential (EI <90), or removed and placed in non structural areas. Therefore, care should be given to proper moisture conditioning of all building pad subgrade soils to a moisture content of 2 to 4 percent above the Modified Proctor optimum during site grading. All imported fill soils should have low to medium expansive characteristics. In addition to adequately moisture conditioning the subgrade soils and fill soils during grading, special care must be taken to maintain the moisture content of these soils at 2 to 4 percent above the Modified Proctor optimum. This will require the contractor to frequently moisture condition these soils throughout the grading process, unless grading occurs during a period of relatively wet weather. Groundwater Free water was not encountered within the depths explored by the borings drilled for this project. These borings extended to a maximum depth of 20± feet below existing grade. Based on this information, groundwater is not expected to impact the proposed grading or foundation construction activities. 6.5 Fouridation Design and Construction Based. on the preceding preliminary grading recommendations, it is assumed that the new building pads will be immediately underlain by existing or newly placed structural fill soils extending to depths of at least 3± feet below foundation bearing· grade. Based on this subsurface profile, the proposed structures may be supported on conventional shallow foundation systems. Foundation Design Parameters New square and rectangular footings may be designed as follows: • Maximum, net allowabl~ soil bearing pres~H~re: 2,500 Ibs/ft2. The allowable bearing pressure may be increased by 1/3 when considering short duration wind or seismic loads. Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -:' Carlsbad, CA Projes:t No. 04G243-1 Page 22 I I I I I I I I :1 I, I, 'I' I 'I I I 'I I 'I • Minimum wall/column footing width: 14 inches/24 inches • Minimum longitudinal steel reinforcement within strip footings: Four (4) No.5 rebars (2 top and 2 bottom), due to medium expansive potential of near su rface soils. • Due to highly differential fill depths in the eastern area of the site, strip footings within Buildings E and Fare' recommended to be reinforced with six (6) NO.5 rebars (3 top and 3 bottom): • Minimum foundation embedment: 12 inches into suitable structural fill soils, and at least 18 inches below adjacent exterior grade. Interior column footings may be placed immediately beneath the floor slab. ' • It is recommended that the perimeter foundations be contiriuous ,across all exterior doorways. Flatwork adjacent to exterior doors should be doweled into the perimeter foundations in a manner determined by the structural engineer. The minimum steel reinforcement recommended above is based on geotechnical considerations. Additional reinforcement may be necessary for structural considerations. The actual design of the foundations should be determined by the structural engineer. Foundation Construction The foundation subgrade soils should be evaluated at the time of overexcavation, as , discussed in Section 6.3 of this report. It is further recommended that the foundation subgrade soils be evaluated by the geotechnical engineer immediately prior to steel or ,concrete placement. Soils suitable for direct foundation support should consist of newly placed structural fill, compacted to at least 90 percent of the ASTM 0-1557 maxim~m dry density. Any unsuitable bearing materials should be removed to a depth of suitable bearing compacted structural fill, with the resulting excavations backfilled with compacted fill soils. As an alternative, lean concrete slurry (500 to 1,500 psi) may be used to backfill such isolated overexcavations. The foundation subgrade soils should also be properly moisture conditioned -to 2 to 4 percent above the Modified Proctor optimum, to a depth of at least ,12 inches below bearing grade. Estimated Foundation Settlements The proposed structures will experience settlements d~~ to two primary factors: 1) -the elastic settlements caused by deformation of the existing structural fill soils due to the loads imposed by the new foundations; and 2) long term settlement of the exisling structural fill soils under their own weight. The total and differential settlements induced by the foundation loads of the new structures are estimated to be less than 1.0 ~nd 0.5 Proposed Lot 40 Business Pa'rk -Carlsb~d. CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 23 I, I I I I I " J I I J I' I 'I I, I I I, I inches, respectively, for shallow foundations designed and constructed in accordance with the recommendations provided in this report. The differential movements are expected to occur over a 30-foot span, thereby resulting in an angular distortion of less than 0.002 inches per inch. As discussed in Section 6.2 of this report, the long term settlements associated with the relatively deep existing fill soils could be on the order of 0.1 to 0.3 percent of the fill depth. On a preliminary basis, there may be up to 35± feet of differential fill depth across .Building Pads E and F. This could result in differential settlements on the order of 0.4 to 1.3± inches. However, these differential settlements will occur-over a distances of 100± feet, causing angular distortions on the order of ~ inch in 50 feet. Such angular distortions are considered to be within the structural tolerances of the proposed buildings. Lateral Load Resistance Lateral load resistance will be developed by a combination of friction acting at the base of foundations and slabs and the passive earth pressure developed by footings below grade. The following friction and passive pressure may be used to resist lateral forces: • Passive Earth Pressure:' 250 Ibs/fe • Friction Coefficient: 0.25 These are allowable values, and include a factor of safety. When combining friction and passive resistance, the passive pressure component should be reduced by one-third. These values assume that footings will be poured directly against suitable compacted structural fill. The maximum allowable passive pressure is 2500 Ibs/ft2. . . 6.6 Floor Slab Design and Construction Subgrades which will support new floor slabs should be prepared in accordance with the recommendations contained in the Site Grading Recommendations section of .this report. Based on the anticipated grading which will occur at this site, the floors of the new structures may be constructed as conventional slabs-on-grade supported on newly placed structural fill. Based on geotechnical considerations, the floor slabs may be designed as follows: . • Minimum slab thickness: 5 inches • Minimum slab reinforcement: No. 3 bars at 18-inches on-center, in both directions. • Due to the highly differential fill depths in the western area of the site, floor slab reinforcement within Buildings E and F is recommended to consist of No. 4 bars at 18 inches on-center, in both directions. Proposed Lot 40 Business Pl;lrk -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1' Page 24 -I, I I I I I I- I- I I- I I I I I I I I I • Slab underlayment: 10-mil vapor barrier, overlain by 2 inches of clean sand. Where moisture sensitive floor coverings are not anticipated, the vapor barrier and 2-inch layer of sand may be eliminated. • Moisture condition the floor slab subgrade soils to 2 to 4 percent above optimum moisture content, to a depth of 12 inc~es. • Proper concrete curing techniques should be utilized to reduce the potential for slab curling or the formation of excessive shrinkage cracks. 6.7 Retaining Wall Design Recommendations It is expected that some small retaining walls may be required to facilitate the new site grades. The parameters recommended for use in the design of. these walls are presented below. Retaining Wall Design Parameters Based on the soil conditions encountered at the boring locations, the folloWing parameters may be used in the design of new retaining walls for this site. We have provided parameters for two different types of Wall backfill: on-site sandy clays and clayey sands, and imported select granular material. In order to use the design parameters for the imported select fill, this material-must be placed within the entire active failure wedge. This wedge is defined as extending from the base of the retaining wall upwa~ds at a 59 degree angle of inclination. RETAINING WALL DESIGN PARAMETERS Soil Type Design Parameter Imported _On-Site Aggregate Base Soils Internal Friction Angle (~) 38° 28° Unit Weight 130lbs/ft3 1251bs/ft3 Active Condition 31 Ibs/ft3 451bs/ft3 (level backfill) Equivalent Fluid Active Condition 441bs/ft3 791bs/ft3 Pressure: (2h:1v backfill) At-Rest Condition 481bs/ft3 661bs/ft3 (level backfill) Regardless of the backfill type, the walls should be designed using a soil-footing Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 _ Page25 I I I I I I 'I I I J I I I 'I .1 I ,I .1 I coefficient of friction of 0.25 and an equivalent passive pressure of 250 Ibs/fe. The active earth pressures may be used for the design of retaining walls which do not directly support structures or support soils which in turn support structures and which will be allowed to deflect. The at-rest earth pressures should be used for walls which will not be allowed to deflect such as those which will support foundation bearing soils, or which will support foundation loads directly. Where the soils on the toe side of the retaining wall are not covered by a "hard" surface such as a structure or pavement, the upper 1 foot of soil should be neglected when calculating passive resistance due to the potential for the material to become disturbed or degraded during the life of the structure. Retaining Wall Foundation Design . Retaining walls should be supported within newly placed structural fill monitored during placement by the geotechnical engineer. Where retaining walls are also serving as building walls, they should be graded in accordance with the recommendations presented in Section 6.3 of this report for the proposed building pad areas. Foundations to support new retaining walls should be designed in accordance with the general Foundation Design Parameters presented in a previous section of this report. Backfill Material It is recommended that a minimum 1 foot thick layer of free-draining granular material (less than 5 percent passing the No. 200 sieve) should be placed against the face of the retaining walls. This material should be approved by the geotechnical engineer. A . suitable geotextile should be used to separate the layer of free draining granular material from the backfill soils. If the layer of free-draining material is not covered by an impermeable surface, such as a structure or pavement, a 12-inch thick layer of a low permeability soil should be placed over the backfill to reduce surface water migration to the underlying soils. . All retaining wall backfill should be placed and compacted under engineering controlled conditions in the necessary layer thicknesses to ensure an in-place density between 90 and 93 percent of the maximum dry density as determined by the Modified Proctor test (ASTM 01557-91). Care should be taken to avoid over-compaction of the soils behind the retaining walls, and the use of heavy compaction equipment should be avoided. Subsurface Drainage As previously indicated, the retaining wall design parameters are based upon drained backfill conditions. Consequently, some form of permanent drainage system will be necessary in conjunction with the appropriate backfill material. Subsurface drainage may consist of either: Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 26 I I I I I I J I I, I I I I I I t I I, I • A weep hole drainage system typically consisting of a series of 4-inch diameter holes in the wall situated slightly above the ground surface elevation on the exposed side of the wall and at an approximate 8-foot on-center spacing. The weep holes should include a minimum 2 cubic foot gravel pocket surrounded by an appropriate geotextile fabric at each weep hole location. • A 4-inch diameter perforated pipe surrounded by 2 cubic feet of gravel per linear foot of drain placed behind the retaining wall, above the footing. The gravel drain should be wrapped in a suitable geotextile fabric to reduce the· potential for migration of fines. The footing drain should be extended to daylight or tied into a storm drainage system. 6.8 Pavement Design Parameters Site preparation in the pavement area should be completed as previously recommended in the Site Grading Recommendations section of this report. The subsequent preliminary pavement recommendations assume proper drainage and construction monitoring, and are based on either PCA or CAL TRANS design parameters for a twenty (20) year design period. These preliminary designs also assume a routine pavement maintenance program to obtain the 20-year pavement service life. Paver:nent Subgrades It is anticipated that the new pavements will be primarily supported on a layer of compacted structural fill, consisting of scarified, thoroughly moisture conditioned and recompa~ted native materials and/or fill soils. The on-site soils generally consist of sandy clays and sandy clays. These soils are considered to possess fair pavement support characteristics with R-values of 10 to 20. Since R-value testing wa.s not included in the scope of services for this project, the subsequent pavement design i.s based upon an assumed R-value of 15. Any fill material imported to the site should have support characteristics equal to or greater than that of the on-site soils and be placed and compacted under engineering controlled conditions. It is recommended that R-value testing be performed after completion of rough grading. Depending upon the results of the R-value testing, it may be feasible to use thinner pavement sections in some areas of the site. Asphaltic Concrete The pavement designs are based on the traffic indices (TI's) indicated. Theclient and/or civil engineer should v~rify that these TI's are representative of the anticipated traffic volumes. If the client and/or civil engineer determine that the . expected traffic volume will exceed those recommended herein, we should be contacted for supplementary recommendations. The design. traffic indices· equate to Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, GA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 27 I I I I I I' I .1 I I J .J J ..

All of the traffic indices allow for 1.0.0.0 automobiles per day. Presented below are the recommended thicknesses for new flexible pavement structures consisting of asphaltic concrete over a granular base. It should be noted that the TI = 5 . .0 section only allows for 1 truck per day. Therefore, all significant heavy . truck traffic must be excluded from areas where this thinner pavement section is used; otherwise premature pavement distress may occur.

The aggregate base course may consist of crushed aggregate base (CAB) or crushed miscellaneous base (CMS), which is a recycled gravel, asphalt and concrete material. The gradation, R-Value, Sand Equivalent, and Percentage Wear of the CAS or eMS should comply with appropriate specifications contained in the current edition of the "Greenbook" Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction.

Reinforcing within all pavements should consist of at least heavy welded wire mesh (6x6-W2.9xW2.9 WWF) placed at mid-height in the slab. In areas underlain by' expansive soils, the reinforcement should be incr~ased to No. 4 bars at 18 inches on center. The maximum joint spacing within all of the PCC pavements is recommended to be equal to or less than 30 times the pavement thickness. .......... , Proposed Lot 40 Business Park -Carlsbad, CA Project No. 04G243-1 Page 29 I I I I 'I I I I I, I I, I I I I I I' I I 7.0 GENERAL COMMENTS This report has been prepared as an instrument of service for use by the client in order to aid in the evaluation of this property and to assist the architects and engineers in the design and preparation of the project plans and specifications.

I,' I I I I. I,· I I I 'I I I Grading Guide Specifications Page' 1 GRADING GUIDE SPECIFICATIONS These grading guide specifications are intended to provide typical procedures for grading operations. They are intended to supplement the recommendations contained in the geotechnical investigation report for this project. Should the recommendations in the geotechnical investigation report conflict with the grading guide specifications, the more site .specific recommendations in the geotechnical investigation report will govern. General • The Earthwork Contractor is responsible for the satisfactory completion of all earthwork in accordance with the plans and geotechnical reports, and in accbrdance with city, county, and Uniform Building Code~ .. • The Geotechnical Engineer is the representative of the Owner/Builder for' the purpose of implementing the report recommendations and guidelines. These duties are not intended to relieve the Earthwork Contractor of any responsibility to perform In a workman-like manner, nor is the Geotechnical Engineer to direct the grading eqUipment or personnel employed by the Contractor. • The Earthwork Contractor is required to notify the Geotechnical Engineer of the anticipated work and schedule so that testing and Inspections can be provided. If necessary, work may be stopped and redone if personnel have not been scheduled in advance. . • The Earthwork Contractor is required to have suitable and sUfficientequipment on the job- site to process, moisture condition, mix and compact the amount of fill being placed to the specified compaction. In addition, suitable support equipment should be available to conform with recommendations and guidelines' in this report. • Canyon cleanouts, overexcavation areas, processed ground to receive fill, key excavations, subdralns and benches should be observed by the Geotechnical Engineer prior to placement of any fill. It is the Earthwork Contractor's responsibility to notifyth~ Geotechnical Engineer of areas that are ready for Inspection. • Excavation, filling, and subgrade preparation should be performed In a manner and sequence that will provld~ drainage at all times and proper control of erosion. Precipitation, springs, and seepage water encountered shall be pumped or drained to provide a suitable working surface. The Geotechnical Engineer must be Informed of springs or water seepage encountered during grading or found~tion construction for possible revision to the recommended construction procedures and/or Installation of subdral~s. Site Preparation • The Earthwork Contractor Is responsible for all clearing. grubbing, .stripping and site preparation for the project in accordance with the recommendations of the Geotechnical- Engineer. • If any materials or areas are encountered by the Earthwork Contractor which are suspected of having toxic or environmentally sensitive contamination, the Geotechnical Engineer and OwnerlBullder should be notified Immediately. . • Major vegetation should be strlppeq and disposed of off-site. This includes trees, brush, heavy grasses and any materials considered unsuitable by the Geotechnical Engineer.

If such structures are known or found, the Geotechnical Engineer should be notified as soon as possible so that recommendations can be formulated. • Any topsoil, slopewash, colluvium, alluvium and rock materials which are considered' unsuitable by the Geotechnical Engineer should be removed prior to fill placement. • Remaining voids created during site clearing caused by removal of trees" foundations basements, irrigation facilities, etc., should be excavated and filled with compacted fill. • Subsequent to clearing and removals, areas to receive fill should be scarified to a depth of 1 0 to 12 inches, moisture conditioned and compacted • The moisture condition of the processed ground should be at or slightly above the optimum moisture content as determined by the Geotechnical Engineer. ,Depending upon field conditions, this may require air drying or watering together with mixing and/or disclng. Compacted Rlls • Soli materials Imported to or excavated on the property may be utilized, in the fill, provided each material has been determined to be suitable in the opinion of the Geotechnical Engineer. Unless othelWise approved by-the Geotechnical Engineer, all fill materials shall· be free of deleterious, organic, or frozen matter, shall contain no chemicals that may result in the material being classified as "contaminated,· and shall be low to nO!1-eXpansive with a maximum expansion index (EI) of 50. The top 12 inches of the compacted fill should have a maximum particle size of3 inches, and all underlying compacted fill material a maximum 6- Inch particle size, except as noted below. ' • All soils should be evaluated and tested by the Geotechnical Engineer. Materials with high expansion potential, low strength, poor gradation or containing organic materials may require removal from the site or selective placement and/or mixing to the satisfaction of the Geotechnical Engineer. • Rock fragments or rocks greater than 6 inches should be taken off-site or placed in accordance with recommendations and in areas designated as suitable by the Geotechnical Engineer. Acceptable methods typically Include windrows. Oversize materials should not be placed within the range of excavation for foundations, utilities, or pools to facilitate excavations. Rock placement should be kept away from slopes (minimum distance: 15 feet) to facilitate compaction near the slope. • Fill materials approved by the Geotechnical Engin~er should be placed In areas previously' prepared to receive fill and in evenly placed, near horizontal layers at about 6 to 8 Inches In loose thickness, or as otherwise detennlned by the Geotechnical Engineer. • Each layer should be moisture conditioned to optimum moisture content, or sllghUy above, as directed by the Geotechnical Engineer. After proper mixing and/or drying, to evenly distribute the moisture, the layers should be compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum dry density In compliance with A$TM 0:-1,557 unless otherwise Indicated. • Density and moisture content testing should be perfonned'by the Geotechnical Engineer at random Intervals and 10ca~lons as detennlned by the Geotechnical Engineer. These tests are Intended as an aid to the Earthwork Contractor, so he can evaluate his workmanship, I :1 I' I I I " I I I -,I I I I' I, I, I I I Grading Guide Specifications Page 3 . equipment effectiveness and site conditions. The Earthwork Contractor Is responsible for compaction as required by the Geotechnical Report(s) and governmental' agencies. • After compacted fills have been tested and approved by the geotechnical engineer, the contractor should moisture condition the solis as necessary to maintain the compacted moisture oontent. Compaoted fill solis that are allowed to become overly dry or desiccated may require removal and/or scarlf/catlon, moisture conditioning and replacement. Solis with medium to high expansion Indices are especially susoeptlble to desiccation. Sandy solis that are allowed to dry can also lose density. • Fill areas unused for a period of time may require moisture oondltlonlng, processing and recompactlon prior to the start of additional filling. The Earthwork Contraotor should notify the Geotechnical Engineer of his Intent so that an evaluation oan be made. • Fill placed on ground sloping at a 5-to-1 inclination (horlzontal-to-vertlcal) or steeper should be benched Into bedrock or other suitable materials, as directed by the Geotechnical Engineer. Typical details of benching are Illustrated on Plates G-2, G-4, and G-5. • Cut/fill transition lots should have the out portion overexcavated to-a depth of at least 3 feet and rebuilt with fill (see Plate G-1), as determined by the Geotechnical Engineer. • All out lots should be inspected by the Geotechnical Engineer for fracturing and other bedrock conditions. If necessary, the pads should be overexcavated to a depth of 3 feet anc;! rebuilt with a uniform, more cohesive soil type to Impede moisture penetration. • Cut portions of pad areas above buttresses or stabllizations should be overexcavated to a depth of 3 feet and rebuilt with uniform. more cohesive compacted fill to impede moisture penetration. -. • Non-structural fill adjacent to structural fill should typically be placed in unison to provide lateral support. Backfill along walls must be placed and compaoted with care to ensure Ulat excessive unbalanced lateral pressures do not develop. The type of fiU material placed adjacent to below grade walls must be propeny tested and approved by the Geotechnical Engineer with consideration of the lateral earth pressure used In the ~esign. Foundations • The foundation influence zone is defined as extending one foot horizontally from the outside edge of a footing. and then proceeding downward afa % horizontal to 1 vertical (0.5:1) inclination. • Where overexcavatlon beneath a footing subgrade is necessary, it should be conducted so as to encompass the entire foundation Influence zone, as described above. • Compacted' fill adjacent to exterior footings should extend at least 12 Inches above foundation bearing grade. Compacted fill within the interior of structures should extend to the floor subgrade elevation. -- Fill Slopes • The placement and compaction of flll described above applies to all fill slopes. Slope - compaction should be accomplished by overfilling the slope, adequately compacting the fill in even layers, including the overfilled zone and cutting the slope back to expose the compacted core. . • Slope compaction may also be achieved by backrolllng the slope adequately every 2 to 4 vertical feet during the filling process as well as requiring the earth moving and compaction eqUipment to work close to the top of the slope. Upon compl~tlon of slope construction, the I' "I I I I' I I I I I I I I," 'I I I, I I I Grading Guide Specifications Page 4 slope face should be compacted with a sheepsfoot connected to a sldeboom and then grid rolled. This method of slope compaction should only be used If approved by the Geotechnical Engineer. • Sandy solis lacking In adequate cohesion may be unstable for a finished slope CQndltlon and therefore should not be placed within 15 horizontal feet of the slope face. • All fill slopes should be keyed Into bedrock or other suitable material. Fill keys should be at least 15 feet wide and Inclined at 2 percent Into the slope. For slopes higher than 30 feet, the fill key width should be equal to one-half the height of the slope (see Plate G-5). • All fill keys should be cleared of loose slough material prior to geotechnical Inspection ~nd should be approved by the Geotechnical engineer and governmental agencies prior to filling. • The cut portion of fill over cut slopes should be made first and inspected by the Geotechnical engineer for possible stabilization requirements. The fill portion should be adequately keyed through all surficial solis and Into bedrock or suitable material. Solis should be removed from the transition zone between the cut and fill portions (see Plate G-2). Cut Slopes • All cut slopes should J>e Inspected by the Geotechnical Engineer to determine the need for stabilization. The Earthwork Contractor should notify the Geotechnical Engineer when slope cutting is In progress at Intervals of 10 vertical feet. Failure to notify may result In a delay in recommendations. • Cut slopes exposing loose, coheslonless sands should be reported to the Geotechnical ' Engineer for possible stabilization recommendations. • All stabilization excavations should be cleared of loose slough material'prior to geotechnical inspection. Stakes should be provided by the CMI Engineer to verify the location and dimensions of the key. A typical stabilization fill detail is shown on Plate 0-5. • Stabilization key excavations should be provided with subdrains. Typical subdrain details are shown on Plates G-6. Subdralns • Subdralns may be required In canyons and swales where fill placement is proposed. Typical subdraln details for canyons are shown on Plate G-3. Subdratns should be installed after approval of removals and before filling, as determined by the Solis Engineer. • Plastic pipe may be used for subdralns provided It is Schedule 40 or SDR 35 or equivalent. Pipe should be protected agalnsl breakage, typically by placement In a square-cut (backhoe) trench or as recommended by the manufacturer. . • Filter material for subdralns should conform to CAL TRANS Specification 68-1.025 or as approved by the Geotechnical Engineer for the specific site conditions. Clean %-inch crushed rock may be used provided It Is wrapped In an acceptable filter cloth and approved by the Geotechnical Engineer. Pipe diameters should be 6 Inches for I1Jns up to 500 feet and 8 Inches for the downstream continuations of longer runs. Four-Inch diameter pipe may be used In buttress and stabilization fills.
