Attention: Mr. Donald W. Gales
In accordance with our agreements dated June 8, 1973 and July 25, 1973, we have made an investigation of the underlying soil conditions at the site of the proposed subdivision to be known as Carillo Estates in Carlsbad, California.
The results of our studies indicate that the site is generally suitable for the proposed development; however, there is some hard rock that may require blasting and existing "old" landslides in the northeastern canyon may require special treatment or real iEent o~ffthepropoSed~~el ~Fuerte Street. The extent of the exis5Tii"TandslideTFe notanticipated n to 'be within the proposed lot areas and are not expected to pose construction
expansive and it appears that selective grading will be necessary to problems in these areas. Much of the on site material is potentially
provide nonexpansive soils in the upper portions of level lot pads.
The accompanying report presents our conclusions and recommendations, as well as the results of the subsurface exploration and laboratory tests upon which these recommendations are based.

SCOPE
This report describes an investigation of the underlying soil
and geologic conditions at the site of the proposed subdivision to be
known as Carillo Estates. ~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~ The site is iocated approximately 1 mile
east of El Camino Real and 1 mile south of Palomar Airport Road in Carlsbad,
. California. The purpose of the investigation is to make a geological
and soil investigation of the,site that will .provide a basis for conclusions
and recommendations regarding the stability of the proposed cuta and^
fill slopes; any required fill foundation treatments and special provisions
that are necessary in' the earthwork specifications; the most suitable
type and depth of foundation and allowable soil bearing pressures for
foundations on compacted fill or natural ground; and provide conclusions
and recommendations regarding the relative stability and the necessary
measures to improve the stability of existing "old" landslides. ,"The
results of our engineering geological reconnaissance have been presented
~.~ ~ ""
in our letter dated June 4, 1973. Preliminary results of our investigation
have been presented to the subdivision engineer, Rick Engineering Company,
to assist them in developing plans for the subdivision.
It is our understanding that the proposed area is to be developed
into lots for single family housing which will consist of one and two-story
structures, of wood frame construction. It is anticipated that the
residential structures will be supported on continuous footings or on
a pier and grade beam foundation and that house floors will either be
raised wooden floors or concrete slabs-on-grade.
The specific plan and tentative map of Carillo Estates, prepared
f'
I:
Project No. 73-203 Page 2
by Rick Enginering Company and dated IMay 7, 1973, indicates that maximum
cut slope heights of approximatly 40 feet at maximum slope inclinations
of 1-1/2 to 1 and maximum fill slope heights of 110 feet at an inclination . .. ~ .. ~ ~~ ~
of 2 to 1 and less than 30 feet at inclinations of 1-1/2 to 1 are proposed.
"" . -~
FIELD TNVESTIGATION
Ten test borings were made with a 6-in. diameter truck-mounted
power auger, four test borings were made with a 30-in. diameter bucket
rig and seven test trenches were excavated with a caterpillar D-8 dozer.
The approximate locations of the test borings and test trenches are
shown on the Site Plan, Fig. 1. The drilling of borings and trench
excavations were done between June 5 and June 11, 1973 under the supervision
of a project engineering geologist. Field logs were prepared by the
geologist on the basis of an inspection of the samples secured and of
the excavated material. The Logs of Test Borings and Test Trenches,
shown on Figs. 2 through 15 are based on an inspection of the samples,
the laboratory test results, and on the field logs. The vertical position
of each sample is shown on the Logs of Test Borings and Test Trenches.
In addition to the test borings and excavations, three engineering
seismograph traverses were made on June 11, 1973 at the approximate
locations shown on Fig. 1. Our interpretation of the results of the
traverses is presented on Table 1.
The test excavations and seismograph traverses were located
in the field with .the aid of 'an undated, untitled 1"=100' scale topographic
map submitted to us by Rick Engineering Company.
LABORATORY TESTS
The soils encountered were visually classified and evaluated
with respect to strength, swelling and compressibility characteristics,
dry density and moisture content. The classification was substantiated
by grain size analyses and determination of plasticity characteristics
of representative samples of the soils. Fill suitability tests, including
laboratory compaction tests, direct shear tests, loaded swell tests, plasticity
characteristics and grain size analyses, were performed on samples of
the basic materials encountered and expected to be used as fill. The
strength of soils was evaluated by consideration of the density and mositure
content of the samples and the penetration resistance of the sampler.
The results of tests on relatively undisturbed drive samples
are shown with the penetration resistance of the sampler at the corresponding
sample locations on the Logs of Test Borings. The fill suitability test
results, except direct shear tests on compacted samples, are reported
on Figs. 16 and 17. The results of the direct shear tests are reported
on Figs. 18 through 21.
SITE, GEOLOGIC AND SOIL CONDITIONS ,I
The site is located on a northwesterly trending ridge with a
high elevation of this ridge, at the southeastern corner of the property,
of approximately 480 ft. The upper portion of the ridge extends downward
to the northwest to an elevation of approximately 325 ft near the'northwestern
corner of the property. A canyon exists on the northern and eastern side
of the site that extends down to elevation of approximately 150 ft. The
side slopes of this canyon are relatively steep ranging between approximately
1.3 to 1 (horizontal to vertical) to approximately 4 to 1. The side slopes
I
. .~
Project No. 73-203 Page 4
on the western side of the ridge are at an inclination of generally about
6 to 1. At the present time the site is covered with small weeds and has
.sparse coverages of small brush with locally dense growth. A small fill
that appears to be uncompacted exists near the end of Flamingo Street.
Our investigation reveals. that there are four distinct geologic
units present on the property. These units are from youngest to oldest:
Alluvium, a late Pleistocene Terrace deposit, Tertiary sediments, and
Santiago Peak volcanics. A, general description of each of these units
is given below:
Alluvium - The alluvium deposits are mainly confined to the /
natural .drainage channels on the site. The alluvial materials consist, for the most part, of silty and clayey sands with minor amounts of scattered gravels in thicknesses up to approximately 6 ft, as exposed’ in the test trenches.
on the surface of the northernmost portion of the main ridge traversing the site. These deposits generally consist of silty clay materials and wsre observed to be less than 2 ft in thickness.
Terrace Deposits - These deposits exist in a limited amount
Tertiary Marine Sediments - Materials of this formation make
grading. The soils within this unit consist of interbedded friable up the bulk of the material requiring excavation for the proposed
sandstones and poorly indurated claystones. The majority of mhterials above an approximate elevation of 400 ft are generally interbedded sandy clays and silty clays.
Jurastic Santiaco Peak Volcanics - These metavolcanic rocks occur at the surface within 2 areas on the property, at the approximate locations indicated on the Site Plan. These rocks typically have large variations in decomposition and fracturing in short surface distances; that is, some areas are expected to be excavated fairly easily, whereas an area just a few feet away may require blasting for economical removal of the materials.
The near surface soils, as encountered in the test borings,
generally consist of 1 to 2 ft of silty sand that is porous. This topsoil
is generally underlain by a layer of residual silty and sandy clay ranging
in thickness from absent to 3 ft.

A slide plane was encountered at a depth of approximately 6-1/2 ft in
Boring 4, but none was encountered in Boring 5. The materials observed in
Boring 5 appeared to be slide debris for the entire depth of the boring.
It was also noted that the bedding of the material at depths of 24 ft
and 30 ft was approximately 30 degrees out of the slope. Refusal was
encountered on very hard cemented sand in Boring 5 at a depth of 34 ft.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOM:~ENDATIONS
(1) The results of our investigation indicate that there are
several "old" landslides on the property, that nuch of the soil within the
anticipated depths of grading is potentially expansive 'and that there is
some "hard" rock within proposed cut areas. It is our opinion that select
gwg and special inspection will be required in order to provide the
most 'suitable end product. It should be anticipated that special . .. foundation
designs may be required for structures on potentially expansive soils.
. ..
-. .~
- ~" .
(2) The ground which will receive fill and/or residential structures
will, in our opinion, have an adequate bearing value to safely support
the proposed loads when treated as described in the following paragraphs
and in the attached "Specifications for Controlled Fill". Footings for
residential structures placed on nonexpansive undisturbed soils or properly
compacted nonexpansive soil may be designed for a soil bearing pressure
of 2000 psf at a depth of 12 in. below rough lot grade. Footings should
have a minimum width of 12 in.

! :f
Project No. 73-203 Page 6
(3) The upper zones of the Santiago Peak Volcanics, the residual
clay below the topsoils, the terrace clays and the sandy and silty clay
strata in the Del Mar Formation, have been classed by laboratory tests
as being potentially expansive to varying degrees. Our studies indicate
that the bulk of the material excavated from above the approximate elevation .
of 400 ft will be of the potentially expansive nature. Where these soils
are used within 2 ft of finish grade in either cut or fill pads, special
foundation treatment will be necessary. For your convenience and consideration,
the following two preliminary foundation designs are presented for soils

The above footings may be designed for a soil bearing pressure of 2000
psf. Soils having a potential swell in excess of approximately 9 percent
should not be used within the upper 2 ft of rough lot grade. Potentially
expansive soils encountered may be spread and compacted throughout the
lower portions of fills, but should not be used in the outer zones of
fill slope faces, as will be discussed in the paragraph under slope stability
bel ow.

(4) The results of .our investigation indicate that the bulk
of the select materials not requiring special foundations will generally
be encountered beiow the approximate elevation 400 ft. Because of this,
it may be desirable for this office to review the'proposed grading plan
when completed and possibly make additional studies in order to evaluate
the availability of select material for capping the upper 2 ft of all
lots founded in potentially expansive materials. The final result of
this may enable us to delinate areas and volumes where the select materials
are available and estimate where the potentially expansive soils will
require undercutting and thereby provide a basis for selective grading.
\
"
(5) Results of our geological reconnaissance, the test borings
and test excavations, and the. engineering seismograph traverses indicate
that the materials on the site can generally be excavated by normal heavy
grading equipment, except in the Santiago Peak formation. Within this
formation, it is a'nticipated that blasting will generally be required to
achieve final grades in areas where cuts are in excess of approximately
5 to 15 ft. In those areas where outcrops exist, blasting will be required
at the surface. It is recommended that areas requiring blasting be overexcavated
. a'
to a minimum depth of 2 ft below the proposed rough grade and that the
Project No. 73-203 Page 8
excavation be backfilled with the more select materials available on the
site. We have discussed the general anticipated areas of blasting with Rick
Engineering Company and suggested that raising grades in certain areas may
be helpful to minimize the amount of blasting required.
It should be anticipated that some oversized rock will be generated
in areas that are blasted. Material in excess of 2 ft in least dimension
will require special handling to place and use in the deeper portions
of fill; that is, when larger rock fragments are used in fills they should
be completely isolated, such that there is at least the width of the compaction
equipment between rocks in order to allow for adequate compaction of the
soils around the rock.
(6) It is recomnended that loose and/or porous surface soils
which are not removed by the grading operations be excavated or scarified
as, required, replaced and compacted before fill, footings or slabs are
constructed. These materials range in depth from approximately 1-1/2 ' .
to about 3 ft on the ridge and side slopes up to approximately 6 ft in
the bottoms of the natural drainage channels. Because of the variations
- "" ___
in thickness of the loose and/or porous surface soils, their excavation
and compaction should be controlled in the field by Woodward-Gizienski &
Associates upon visual examination of the exposed soils.
(7) The proposed cut and fill slopes having inclinations of
1-1/2 to 1 (1-1/2 horizontal to 1 vertical) and maximum unsupported heights
of less than 50 ft will, in our opinion, have an adequate safety factor
against slope failure if constructed in accordance with the plans and
specifications. Fill slopes in excess of 50 ft in height,but.less than
115 ft in height,may be constructed at overall slope ratios of 2 to 1.

to samples 3-~3 and 14-1 in the outer 60 ft of slope face. As grading
progresses, strength tests on newly exposed soils combined with other
slope stability analyses may show that these newly exposed soils may also
be used within .. this zone.

(8) As previously noted there are existing old landslides along
the northern side slopes of the majo6 ridge of the site. Although these
s1 ides appear to be below the toes of proposed fills, it is recoyxnded
that the keys made for these proposed fills be inspected by a geologist I .
from our . firm prior to placing fi.11 in^ these areas in .~ order to verify actual
subsurface conditions. This recommendation is made for the purpose of
inspecting the area for possible slide debris that could not be.delineated
from the field reconnaissance. Shou1.d such materials be encountered,
it will be necessary to remove them down to competent formational materials
prior to construction of fill slopes..

Recommendations made as a part,of this report shall become a part of these
specifications. It is recommended that- all grading operations be observed

LIMIATIONS
I
The conclusions an'd recommendations made in this report are
based on the assumption that the soil conditions do not deviate appreciably
from those disclosed by the test borings. If variations are encountered
during constuction, we should be notified so that we may make supplemental
recornendations, if thi's should be required.
Evaluation and utilization of soil materials for support-of
structures includes investigation of the subsurrace conditions, analysis,
formulation of recommendations, and inspection during grading. The soil
investigation is not completed until the soil engineer has been able to
examine the soil in excavations or cut slopes so that'he can make the
necessary modifications, if needed. tle emphasize the importance of the
soil engineer continuing his services through the inspection of grading,
including construction of fills, and foundation excavations.
