CITY OF CARLSBAD:
Engineering DeRartment
.
In accordance with your request ·and the requirements of the City . ,
of Carlsbad Engineering Department, we are presenting an upda~ed soH
investigation report for the subje~t si~e. This. report include~ the
results of a recent visual inspection of the site; a review of three soil
reports ~eviously issued concerning the subject site, a.nd a· general revi'ew
of our files pertaining to the Laguna Riviera development. .
A brief summary of the soil reports .previously. issued pertaining
to the subject site is found below.
(1) IIFoundation Soils Investigation for the Proposed Rancho
Agua Hedionda· Subdivision, Carlsbad, Californiall , dated July 29~
1965, and an addendum dated January 6, 1966, both prepared by
Dresselhaus Engineers. This report presents a comprehensive
study of the entire Laguna Riviera development and presents
the result~ of field investigation including test borings and
the results of ·1 aboratory tests performed on representati ve
samples of the soils encountered. This report has provided the
basis· for the development of other units in the Laguna Riviera
development.
{2} IIGrading Plan Review, Laguna Riviera Units No.6 and
7, Carlsbad, California ll , dated November 8, 1974 and prepared by
Woodward-Gizienski & Associates. This letter type report presents
the results of a review of the grading plans for the· subject
units and also presents recommendations for site development
including conclusions relative to the suitability for the site
f6r the proposed developmen~, allowable soil bearing pressures

to be used in design of foundations, recommendat'lons for
foundations placed on potentially expansive soils and conclusions
relative to the stability of the proposed cut and. fill slopes.
The report presented the results of 'stability analyses, the
results of compaction tests taken on fill alreadY placed on
the ~ite and specifications for controlled fill. _
(3) "Slope Stability and Earthwork Specifications, laguna
Riviera Units No.6 and 7, Carlsbad, California", dated January
21, 1975, prepared by Hoodward-Gizienski & Associates. This
report presents the results of additional field investigation
including two test borings and the results of addition~l
laboratory tests performed on samples secured from the test
borings. Also presented are additional conclusions regarding
the stability of cut and fill slopes based on the field and
laboratory tests and a set of earthwork specifications to be used for grading. .
It is our understanding that the grading plans reviewed as a part
of the studies leading to the last two reports are stiJ1 current. These
plans indicate that the units will be graded into twenty-two and twenty-
eight lots, for Unit 6 and 7, respectively, which \'1111 receive single _
family one or two-story wood frame or stucco residential structures.
The grading plans indicate cut and fill slopes having maximum slope inclinations
of 1-1/2 to 1 for cut and 2 to 1 for fill, and maximum heights for cut and
fill slopes of 45 and 30 feet, respectively.
A recent visual inspection of the site was made by a project engineer
of our firm on June 13, 1975. This inspection revealed that the subject
site has been partially graded and that significant depths of fi11·have
been placed in a major drainage area. Several of the lots in Unit 6 appear
to be close to finish grade. It was noted that some uncompacted fill
had been placed on the site and in s'ome cases spread around in re1atlve1y
thin layers. Minor trash and rubble was also noted on the surface .
throughout the site. The only natural ground shm'ling at thetime:of our·
inspection was at the extreme western end of Unit 7 where a moderate growth
of brush and native grasses waS present on a small hillside.

A "review of our files concerning the subject site indicate that the
major portions of the fill have been placed under controlled conditions
and compacted in accordance with specification~. " No formal report of
the filling has been issued to date other than the presentation of the
results of the compaction tests on November 8, 1974. Observations made
during grading and the results of compaction and laboratory tests will be
issued in a final report when grading is complete.
Our review of the previous soil reports indicates that the soil and
geologic conditions on site generally consist of an overburden mantle
composed of 1 to 3 feet of dry"silty sand topsoil underlain by formational
materials composed of poorly to moderately indurated "tertiary sediments.
These sediments consist of very light grer to white silty medium to coarse
sand with some gravels, interbedded with layers and lenses of hard ~andy
clay and clayey silt. In general, the granular sandy soils are
nonexpansive in nature while the clays and silts rqnge from moderate.
to highly expansive in nature.
Based on the updated review previously described, we present· the
following conclusions and recommendations at this time •.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECor~MENDATIONS
(1) It is our opinion that the ere1iminary soil studies presented
above provide an adequate basis for evaluation of the existing soil. c~nditions
on the site and provide a suitable basis for any additional analyses thQt
may be required."
(2) Based on a review of the slope stability calculations in previous
rep'orts and a visual inspection of existing site conditions, it is our
opinion that the proposed cut and fill sloQes will have adeguate indicated
. = •
factors of safety against deep-seated slope failure, if constructed in
accordance with plans and specifications.
(3) It is recommended that all trash and perishable items be r.emoved"
from the site surface prior to grading and that all existing and uncompacted
fill soils be excavated or scarified, as required, and properly compatt~d
prior to placing any new fill or foundations. Rubble materials may be

broken down to maximum 2 foot size and placed and properly compacted around
with fines in the deeper portions of the fills.
(4) It is recommended that any clay soils exposed at grade in cut
areas be excavated to a minimum depth of 2 feet and replaced with properly
compacted nonexpansive soils or low to moderately expansive soils
available on site. It is f.urther reconmended that the upper 2 feet of
fill in design fill areas be composed of properly compacted nonexpansive
--or low to moderately expansive soil. Moderate to.highly expansive materials
may be properly placed and compacted in deeper fill areas.
_ It is indicated that selective grading may have to be emplo~ed in
order to arrive at satisfactory finish grade soil conditions,. This may
include stockpiling of so1-1s for later use.and possible importing of
suitably select material for use at finish grade. Special recommendations
will be required for foundations placed on potentially expansive ~.oil~.
It is reconmended that each lot be classifi-ed during or at the close of _
grading to determine the actual finish grade soil conditions. Special-
recommendations for foundations will be presented in the final report,_
if this should be required.
(5) It is recorrmended that all slopes be drained, maintained and
planted in order to control erosion.
(6) It is -recommended that the grading at the site be performed
in accordance with, the attached "Spec ificaions for Controlled Fill".
The grading period should be observed by and compact~on tests taken by'
Woodward-Clyde Consultants.
(7) It is recommended that a preconstruction conference be held
at the site with the owner or developer, contractor, civil engineer and . .
soil engineer in attendance; Any questions regarding grading plans or special
soil handling may be answered at that time.

lUlITATIONS
e, Page 5,
The conclusions and recommendations made in this report are based
on the assumption that the soil conditions do not deviate appreciably
from those d~sclosed by the test'borings. If variations are encountered
during construction, we should be notified so that we may ma'ke supplemental
recommendations, if this should be required.
Evaluation and utilization of s011 materials for support of structures
includes investigation of the subsurface conditions, analysis, formulation
of reconmendations, and inspection during grading. The 'soil investi'gation
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. We emphasize the importance of the soil engineer
continuing his services through the inspection of grading, including
construction of fills and foundation excavations.
The engineer assigned to this project is Mr. Richard P. While of
our firm. If you have any questions concerning our updated study of the,
soil conditions on site, please call him or write at your convenience. ,

the Owner's representative to inspect the construction of fills. Exca-
vation and the placing of fill shall be under the direct inspection of
the Soil Engineer and he shall' give written notice of conformance with
the specifications upon completion of grading. Deviations from these
specifications will be permitted only upon written authorization from
the Soil Engineer. A soil investigation has been made for this project;
any recommendations made in the ~eport of the soil investigation or
subsequent reports shall become an addendum to these specifications.
II. SCOPE
The placement of controlled fill by the Contractor shall include all
clearing and grubbing, removal of existing unsatisfactory material,
preparation of the areas to be filled, spreading and compaction of
fill in the areas to be filled, and all other work necessary to complete
the grading of the filled areas.
III. MATERIALS
1. Materials for compacted fill shall consist of any material imported"
or excavated from the cut areas that, in the opinion of the Soil Engineer,
is suitable for use in constructing fills. The material shall contain no
rocks or hard lumps greater than 6 inches in size and shall "~ontain at
least 40% of material smaller than 1/4 inch in size. No material of a
perishable, spongy, or othen~ise improper nature shall be used in filling.
2. "Material placed within 24 inches of rough lot grade shall be select
material that contains no rocks or hard lumps greater than 6 inches in
size and that swells less than 3% when .compacted as hereinafter specified
for compacted fill and when subjected to an axial pressure of 160 psf.
3. Representative samples of mat.erial to be used for fill shall be tested
in the laboratory by the Soil Engineer in order to determine the maximum
density, optimum moisture content and classification of the soil. tn addition~"

SLOPE STABILITY AND EARTHWORK SPECIFICATIONS
LAGUNA RlVIERA UNIT NOS. 6 AND 7
CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA
In accordance with your request and our proposal dated December 13, 1974,
we have made additio.nal soil ·studies regarding slope stability at the
subject sites.
A review of the grading plans indicates fhat there will be 50 lots.
Cut slopes will have a maximum hei ht of 45 feet at a slope ratio of .
1-1/2 to 1 (horizontal to vertical , this maximum height is to be located
on the northeastern end of the subdivision. The fill slopes throughout
the subdivision range in height from less than 24 feet to a maximum
of 30 feet. The slope ratios range between 1-1/2 to 1, and 2.3 to 1'.
In order to evaluate the proposed and existing slopes, two (2) test
borings were made with a truck-mounted, 8-inch diameter power auger
for the purpose of sampling the soil for laboratory testing. Test Boring
No.1 was made on Lot 204 and Test Boring No: 2 on Lot 208 under the
supervision of a staff engineer from our firm. Field logs of the test
borings were made by the engineer on the basis of cuttings from the
drilling equipment, the samples obtained and the existing exposed cuts
and fills in the area. The Logs of Test Borings shown on Figure 1 and
2 are based on an inspection of the· samples, on the laboratory test
results and on the field logs of borings. Test borings were located
in the field with the aid of the Grading Plan dated November 7, 1974,
prepared by Raymond R. Ribal, Civi·l Engineer.
The samples and exposed soils were visually classified and evaluated
with respect to strength, dry density and moisture content. The strength
of soils was evaluated by performing soaked direct shear tests on selected
samples representative of those materials in cut slopes and those representative
Kamar Construction ~any, Inc.
Project No. 72-102-~
January 21, 1975 • Page 2
of fill materials. A laboratory compacti-Qn test was made on the fill
soil in order to determi ne the proper 1 aboratory densHy ,for compaction
of the sample prior to testing for strength values. The results of
the direct shear test and laboratory compaction test on this sample '
are reported in Figure 4. Direct shear tests on relatively undisturbed
samples are reported on Figures 5 and 6.
A reconnaissance of the area indicates that the on site materials 'are
similar to'sediments of Tertiary age. These deposits 'consist of interbedded
silty to clayey sands, clayey silts and silty and sandy clays. Results
of the direct shear tests indicate that the materials have relatively_
high in-situ strengths and mocerate strength,when used as fill.
Our studies of slope stability are based on the aforementioned Grading
Plan, the direct shear tests, and a reconnaissance of the area. The
slope stability analyses were done using "Stability Analysis of Slopes
,with Dimensionless Parameters" by N. Janbu. It has been our experience
that there is a good correlation between the Janbu method and the Lease
II Computer program which uses the Bishop' Method of Slices for simple
slopes that are considered to develop a circular arc as the mode of
failure for static conditions. We have also noted that a seismic factor
O.lg applied to the slope by means of the computer analysis results
in a reduction in safety factor of 15 to 20 percent. Our computations
by the Janbu method are attached (Figures 7 through 10). These attachments
represent the maximum slope heights and ratios for cut slopes and various
fill slope combinations.
It is therefore our opinion that the £roposed cut and fill slope~ proposed
on the Grading Plan dated November 7,1974, prepared by Raymond R. Riba1,
Civil Engineer, will have adequate safety factors, including a O.lg ,
seismic force, it constructea in accoraance with the plans and 'specifications.
A set of Earthwork Specifications is attached. It is r.~~qIDmenq~~, that
~gradin.9 operations be done in accordance with these "§'P'eci,fications.
In regard to the use of modera:te to high otential ex ansibilit,Y soils
within 2 feet of finish graae ecause of tne possible lack of select
on site), it is recommended that each lot be inspected and evaluated
as finished during graaing and final foundation and floor slab design
established at that time. Our recommendations with respect to this'
will be included in our final report of grading.
If you have any questions, please call at your convenien~e.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONTROLLED FILL
GENERAL
These specifications cover preparation of' eXisting surfaces to receive
fills; the type of soil suitable for use in fills; the control of com-
paction and the methods of testing compacted fills. It shal) be the
Contractorls responsibility to place, spread, water'and compact the fill
in strict accordance with these specifications. A Soil Engin~er shall be
the Ownerls representative to inspect the construction of fills. Exca-
vation and the placing of fill shall be under the direct inspection of
the Soil Engineer and he shall give written notice of conformance with
the specification~ upon completion of grading. Deviations from these
specifications will be permitted only upon written authorization from
the Soil Engineer. A soil investigation has been made for this project;
any recommendations made in the report of the soil investigation or
subsequent reports shall become an addendum to these specifiGations.
'II. SCOPE
The' pl acement of controll ed fill by the Contractor shall include all
c1ear'ing and grubbing, removal of existing unsatisfactory mat-eri,a1,
preparation of the areas ,to be filled, spreading and compaction of
fill in the areas to be fille9, and all other, work necessary to complete
the ,grading of the filled areas.
III. MATERIALS
1. ~1aterials for compacted fill shall consist of any material imported
or excavated from the cut areas that, in the opinion of the Soil Engine~r,
is suitable for use in constructing fills. The material shall contain no
rocks or hard lumps greater than 6 inches in size and shall contain at
least 40% of material smaller than 1/4 inch in size. No material of a
perishable, spongy, or other~vise improper nature shall be used in filling.
2. Material placed within 24 inches of rough lot grade shall be select
material that contains no rocks or hard lumps greater than 6 inches in
size and that swells less than 3% when compacted as hereinafter specified
for compacted fill and It,hen subjected to an axial pressure of 1-60 psf~
3. Representative samples of material to be u~ed for fill shall be tested
in the laboratory by the Soil Engineer in order to determine the maximum
density, optimum moisture content and classification of the soil. In addition~
the Soil Engineer shall determine the approximate bearing value of a recom-
pacted, saturated sample by direct shear tests or other tests applidtble to
the particular soil.
4. During grading operations, soil types other than those analyzed in the
report of the soil investigation may be encountered by the Contractor., The
Soil Engineer shall be consulted to determine the suitability of these soils.

by the Contractor while at a moisture content near the optimum
moisture content and to a density that is not less tha'n 90% 'of
the maximum density determined in accordance with ASTM Test No.
D1S'S7-70T, or other density methods that wi.ll obtain equivalent
results. .
(b) Potentially expansive soils may be used in fi.lls below a depth·
of 24 inches and shall be compacted at a moisture content greater.
than the optimum moisture content for the material.
2. C1~aring and Preparing Areas to be Filled
(a) All trees, brush, grass and other objectionable material shall
be collected, piled and burned or otherwise disposed of by.the Con~
tractor sO'as to leave the areas that have been cleared with a neat
finished appearance free from unsightly debris •
. (b) All vegetable matter and objectionable material .shall be removed
by the Contractor from the surface upon which the fill is to be placed
and any loose and porous soils shall be removed or compacted to the .
depth shm-l/n on the plans. The surface shall then be plowed or scarified
to a minimum depth of 6 inches 'until the surface is free from uneven
features that would tend to prevent uniform compaction by the equipment
to be used.
(c) Where fills are constructed on hillsides or slopes, the slope of
the original ground on which the fill is to be placed shall be·stepped
or keyed by the Contractor as shown on the attached figure. The steps
.shall extend completely through the soil mantle and into the underlying·
formation materials .
. (d) After the foundation for the fill has been cleared, plowed o~r'
scarified, it shall be disced or bladed by the Contractor until it is
uniform and free from clods, brought to the proper moisture content and
compacted as specified for fill.
·3. Placing, Spreading, and Compaction Fill Material
(a) The fill material shall be placed by the Contractor in layers that
when compacted sha 11 not exceed 6 inches. Each 1 ayer sha 11 be spread
evenly and shall be thoroughly mixed during the spreading to obtain
uniformity of material in each layer.
(b) When the moisture content of the fill material is above that
.specified by the Soil Engineer, the fill material shall be aerated
·by the Contractor by blading, mixing or other satisfactory methods until
the moisture content is as sp~cified.

In accordance with your request, and our agreement dated September 22,
1975, we have provided soil engineering services in conjunction with the
grading of the subject site. These services included:
(1) Engineering observation of the grading operation.
(2) Observation of the removal or scarification' and recompaction qf
loose surface soil and loose fill soils, where enCountered, prior
to placing compacted fill.
(3) Observation of the removal of potentially highly expansive soil
from the top 2 feet of rough lot grade and replacing it with
nonexpansive or low to moderately expans~ve soil. '
(4) Taki'ng field density tests in the fill placed and compacted.
(:3), Performing laboratory tests on representative samples of the
materia) used for fill.
Current site preparation, compaction, and testing were done between
September 24 and October 27, 1975 in accordan~e with the "Specifications
for Controlled Fillll in our report entitled "Updated Soil Investigati,on
Report, Laguna Riviera No.6 and 7, Carlsbad",California ll , dated June
20, 1975 and revised on June 23, 1975.
#-. Kamar Construction Co~y, Inc.
Project No. 75-105-23'"
November 10, 1975 •• page 2 .
Prior fill placed under controlled conditions was compacted and te'sted
on this site in 1974. The results of compaction tests are included in.
this report. During this initial grading period, fill was placed in a
canyon area in Unit 7. Some excavation was done on both Unit 6 and 7.
Fill was placed, compacted, and tested during the current grading periog
. on Lots 174 through 185 and 187 through 195 in Unit No.6 and on Lots
196 through 206, 208, 209 and 213 through 223 on Unit No.7.
As the site grading progressed, the compaction procedures were observed,
and field density tests were made to determine the relative compaction
of the fill in place. Field observations and field density test results
indicate that the fill has been compacted to 90% or more of maximum
laboratory density. The approximate locations of field density tests
and the limits of compacted fill have been recorded on a copy ~f the
grading plan for reference. The results of" field density tests and of
relative compaction, expressed as, a percent of maximum laboratory density,
are given on the attached forms.
Laboratory tests to determine moisture-density relationships, maximum
dry density, optimum moisture content, grain size distribution, plasticity'
charatteristics, and swell characteristics were performed on representative
samples of the material used for fill. The results of laboratory tests .
are given on the attached forms.
During the grading operation certain lots were specially treated to
,provide a specified depth of selected soil at finish grade. This special
treatment consisted of the placement of special finish grade' soil ~nd
undercutting of highly expansive clay from finish gradp and replacing it
with soil of less expansive nature. The lots were then classified in
regard to whether the soil at finish grade is nonexpansive or low to
moderately expansive in nature. In general, finish grade soil refers to
the upper approximate 2 feet of soil on the lot as defined by rough or
compacted lot grade.
Rough lot grade is defined as that grade set in the field by. the grade
checker from reference stakes established by the surveyor and represents
rough grade at the time we were inspecting the removal and replacement,
of expansive soils. Likewise the depths of undercutting of expansive
soil and/or depths of placement of nonexpansive soil were in accordance
with measurements made by and grades set by the contractor's grade
checker.
Summary of Finish Grade Soil Conditions
(1) Cut, fill or cut-fill lots having nonexpansive soils at finish
grade are,Lots 177 through 184,186,196, 197, 198, 204, 205, 206,
208, 210, 211, 212, 214, 215 and 219 .
. (2) Cut, fill or cut-fill lots having low to moderately expansive "
finish grade soils are Lots 174, 175, 176, 185, 187 through 195,199
through 203, 207, 209, 213, 216, 217, 218, and 220 through 223.

(3) On those lots where potentially expansive soil is evident or where
it is encountered in footing excavations, special foundation.design
should be observed. Special foundations for single or two-story .
·residential structures on lots that contain such potentially expansive
soil, should be designed in accordance with the recommendations in
Paragraph (2) below.
Foundation Recommendations
(1) Foundations for single or two-story residential structures placed
on nonexpansive undisturbed soil or nonexpansive properly compacted
fill may be designed for a bearing pressure of 2,000 psf at a depth
of 12 inches below compacted fill or undisturbed cut lot grade.
(2) Foundations for single or two-story residential structures on lots
that contain low to moderately expansive soil should be designed
for an allowable soil bearing pressure of 2,000 psf and should
include the following reinforcing.
Rough or Compacted
Grade
12" min.
•
L 12" I r min;'1
4" mino concrete slab with 6x6 10 10 mesh
-#4 Bars, top and bottom
The above design recommendations are not intended to eliminate
heave, but are intended to minimize its effects. Footings p)aced
on expansive soils should be expected to experience local he~ving.
(3) The bearing pressures given above are for total dead plus live load
and may be increased for loads that include wind or seismic forces.
All footings should have a minimum widtfi of 12 inches.
'(4) Th~ exposed soils within footing excavations and under slabs should
not be allO\lJed to dry out before construction. Soils should be
wetted as required prior to placment of concrete.
(5) Structures that will not tolerate differential settlements (such as
foundations, swimming pools, concrete decks, walls, ·etc.) should
not be located within 5 feet of the top of a slope.
(6) All slopes should be properly drained, planted and maintained in
order to help control erosion.

This report covers the fill placed under our observation during the
dates specified herein. Additional fill placed after these dates, as
well as the backfill in utility trenches located within 5 feet of a
building and greater than 12 inches deep, or any trench 5 feet or more
from a building and in excess of 5 feet in depth, should be compacted -
under the observation of this office and tested to assure compliance
with the earthwork specifications for the project. This office should
be contacted at-least 24 hours prior to backfilling operations. Utility·
service trenches within 5 feet of a building that are perpendicular to
the building footings and are less than 12·inches wide and less than 3
feet deep are not subject to this recommendation.
The inspections of foundation preparation) types of materials and soil
placement and compaction as well as tests of compactio~ made during the
period of our services on the subject site were in accordance with the
local acceptable standards for this period. The conclusions or opinions
drawn from the tests and site inspections apply only to our w00k with
respect to grading and represent conditions at the date of our final
inspection.
We will accept no responsibility for any subsequent changes made to the
site by others or by uncontrolled action of water or by failure of
others to properly repair damages caused by uncontrolled -action of
water. -
