Attention: Mr. Steve Hollenbeck
Sub j ect : Geotechnical Site Evaluation Carlsbad Airport Center, Unit 2
Carlsbad, California
Gentlemen:
As requested, presented herein is a summary of our evaluation of
the previously placed fill in the Carlsbad Airport Center-Unit 2,
Carlsbad, California.
The purpose of our exploration and testing was to evaluate the as
graded geotechnical conditions on site with respect to previous
earthwork.
This report presents our findings, conclusions and
recommendations concerning future site development.
SITE CONDITIONS
General
The project site consists of twenty-three sheet graded lots, a
detention basin (Lot 26) and associated street improvements. The
street improvements and utilities for the backbone road system
are completed. An evaluation of the streets and various utility
corridors, with respect to compaction testing, is not within the
scope of this report.

Site drainage is typically by sheet flow across the lots to catch
basins, which convey the surface water into the storm drain
system.
Earthwork for the site has occurred in two phases. Initial
earthwork on Unit 2 took place in conjunction with mass grading
of Unit 1. Fill was placed under the observation and testing
services of Moore h Taber in the areas of Lots 40, 41 and 48 and
portions of Lots 33-35, 39, 42 and 49. Grading of Unit 1 and the
above mentioned portions of Unit 2, was performed by Templeton
Construction between November, 1985 and November, 1986.
The second phase of earthwork for Unit 2 occurred under the
observation and testing services of San Diego Geotechnical
Consultants, Inc. (currently named ICG Incorporated). Grading of
Unit 2 was performed by Astleford Construction between August,
1989 and March, 1990.
Groundwater
Groundwater seepage was encountered onsite in boring B-lb at a
depth of 67 feet, just above the bedrock contact. The seepage
encountered in this boring and seepage which is likely in other
subsurface canyons, is not an unusual condition to encounter
along a bedrock/fill contact. This water should be ultimately
picked up and conveyed offsite via the subdrain systems denoted
on the "As-Built Subdrain" map prepared by Bodas Engineering,
Inc. for Unit 2 and constructed during grading of Unit 1. As
such, this condition is not anticipated to adversely affect site
development. These observations and opinions reflect site
conditions at the time of this investigation and do not preclude
changes in local groundwater conditions in the future from heavy
irrigation or precipitation.

The site is underlain by Jurassic age Santiago Peak Volcanics,
Eocene age Santiago Formation sediments and recently placed fill
materials. Fill materials are discussed under the "Fill
Evaluation" section of this report.
Santiago Peak Volcanics (Map Symbol Jsp):
The Jurassic age Santiago Peak Volcanics are a series of mildly
metamorphosed, pervasively fractured and jointed volcanic rock.
Excavation into this material should be expected to be difficult
and would likely produce poor quality fill materials.
Santiago Formation (Map Symbol Tsa):
The Eocene age Santiago Formation underlies much of the site. As
observed, this material consists of interbedded siltstones,
claystones and sandstones. The clays and silts should be
expected to be moderately to highly expansive, dependent upon the
percent sand in the materials.
FIELD AND LABORATORY TESTING
Subsurface conditions were explored .by excavating backhoe test
pits and advancing hollow stem auger borings. Logs of the test
pits and borings are included in this report as Appendix I.
Field exploration was performed in mid-December, 1990 by some of
our staff geologists, who logged the excavations, performed field
density tests and obtained samples of representative fill
materials for laboratory testing. The approximate location of
the exploratory test pits and borings are indicated on the
enclosed Geotechnical Map (Plate 1) which utilizes the 1"=80'
site plan prepared by Bodas Engineering Inc., as a base map.
Six hollow stem auger borings were advanced to varying depths to
explore subsurface conditions. For laboratory testing, ring
samples were obtained on selected intervals as the borings were

advanced. In addition, fifty-two backhoe test pits were
excavated to explore and evaluate near surface conditions. Field
density tests were performed in the test pits on approximately 2
foot vertical intervals to determine in-situ moisture and density
of the fill material. Field density testing was performed using
the sand cone method (ASTM D-1556-82) or nuclear density method
(ASTM D-2922-81 and ASTM D-3017-78). These test results were
compared to the laboratory maximum dry density and optimum
moisture content (ASTM D-1557-78) of representative soil types to
determine in place relative compaction of the materials tested.
Both direct correlation and visual classification of the soils in
the field and lab were the basis for determining which optimum
moisture content and maximum dry density values to use for a
given density test. The test results are presented in Appendix
11.
Other laboratory tests were also performed on selected soil
samples to evaluate the physical characteristics of
representative on site materials. Testing included: coulomb shear
strength parameters, soil compressibility and coefficient of
consolidation, soil expansion potential and other soil index
properties.
The primary focus of our geotechnical study was to evaluate the
nature of subsurface earth materials underlying the lots and to
ascertain their engineering properties with emphasis on the fills
placed during grading performed between August 1989 and March
1990 by Astleford Construction. Lot 37 has been excluded from
this report, as it was previously evaluated and discussed in
reference 4.

Reference 1 presents the geotechnical observation and testing
services provided by Moore & Taber during mass grading of Unit 1
and portions of Unit 2.
At most of the locations of our exploratory borings and test pits
adequate removals were accomplished. For the most part,
observations made in our test pits would indicate that proper
benching was performed, as the contacts between bedrock and fill
materials were relatively flat lying and distinct. However,
topsoil and/or an abundance of organic material was exposed in
TP-3 (Lot 28), TP-18 (Lot 48) and TP-35 (Lot 42). Remedial
recommendations concerning these materials are presented in the
81Recommendationst8 section of this report.
Stabilization fills were constructed for the ascending slopes
from Lots 31, 32, 34, 35 and 49. These are documented by ICG's
"Daily Report of Grading Observations" and "Field Memos" for the
project and by the back drains locations indicated on the "AS
Built Subdrain" map prepared by Bodas Engineering Inc. In
addition, some of our test pits exposed either a portion of the
keyway or backcut of the of the subject stabilization fills.
Based on available data these appear to be constructed in
accordance with current industry standards.
A subdrain system was constructed during Unit 2 earthwork in the
canyons below Lots 26, 29 and 30 and is also indicated in ICG
documents and the "As-Built Subdrain" map prepared by Bodas
Engineering. Subdrains were also constructed in Unit 2 during
grading of Unit 1. The location of these subdrains are denoted
on the Airport Business Center Unit 1, As Built-Grading Plans,
prepared by Bodas Engineering, Inc.
Cut/fill transitions are present on Lots 28, 30-36 and 42-47.
The approximate locations of the cut/fill transitions are
indicated on the enclosed Geotechnical Map, Plate 1. A cut/fill

transition was also encountered in a proposed cut area on Lot 43
(TP-47). This fill was rather limited and likely associated with
the excavation of the stabilization key for the ascending slope
from Lot 49.
In TP-25 through TP-27 on Lot 40, rock fill materials were
encountered at depths of 7.5 to 8 .O feet. Rock fill was also
encountered in TP-31 on Lot 39 at a depth of 3.5 feet. Any
excavation into these materials is anticipated to be difficult
and likely will produce oversized fill materials.
Fill caps varying from three to four feet in thickness were
encountered on Lots 38 and 39 in test pits TP-28 through TP-30.
Below the fill caps Santiago Peak Volcanics were encountered.
Excavation into the volcanics is anticipated to be difficult,
possibly requiring special equipment or blasting and producing
oversized fill materials.
Density test results, presented in Appendix 11, indicate that the
fill materials tested generally meet or exceed the typical
industry standard of 90 percent relative compaction. However,
some zones are apparently not compacted to the typical 90 percent
minimum. Data indicates that these zones are rather limited.
Zones or layers of this nature are rather typical within large
fills.
While it is typical to specify a minimum 90 percent relative
compaction, the competency of a fill to support a given load is
more significant with respect to the fills overall performance.
For example: under a relatively light loading condition (1500 psf
or less) a soil compacted to 87 percent should not perform
significantly different than the same fill material compacted to
90 percent. Excluding Lots 35 and 40, which are discussed below,
there are only three remaining tests results below 89 percent
relative compaction.

Considering the results of the fill evaluation and the following,
it is our opinion that these zones will not adversely affect
future site development for the following reasons.
1) Site grading was completed in March, 1990. Time consolidation data indicates that
primary settlement due to the weight of the fill would have already occurred.
2) Consolidation test data for samples below 90 percent and above 90 percent, indicate no significant difference in consolidation behavior.
3) Some of the failing zones will be removed or recompacted during individual lot regrading and development.
4) Zones that will not be subject to significant stress increases from foundation loading
conditions, etc., will not likely undergo additional primary settlement because without an increase in stress conditions, settlement is not likely to occur.
On Lots 35 (TP-23) and Lot 40 (TP-26), the softer fill zones in
these areas may impact development. More detailed evaluations to
better delineate the limits should be performed when site
development plans are available. Removal and recompaction might
be warranted.
Observations indicate that the surface soils (less than 1.5 feet
deep) have been desiccated, loosened and remoistened (recently)
and therefore, are likely below the minimum 90 percent compaction
standard.
sloDes
Both cut and fill slopes have performed satisfactorily to date.
However, these slopes are being heavily irrigated. Consideration
should given to providing only the amount of water necessary to
maintain plant life. Overwatering should be avoided.

CONCLUSIONS
Based on our field exploration, laboratory testing, review of the
referenced reports and the engineering and geologic analyses
performed, it is our opinion that the project site is suited for
the proposed industrial/office development from a geotechnical
engineering and geologic viewpoint, provided the recommendations
presented herein are incorporated into the planning and design
phase of individual lot development.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Prior to development, it is recommended that a detailed
foundation investigation be conducted on each lot, so that
appropriate site preparation and foundation recommendations could
be provided with respect to the geotechnical conditions, building
locations and foundation loading.
Remedial recommendations concerning the soft fill zones in the
area of TP-23 (Lot 35) and TP-26 (Lot 40) and the topsoil and/or
an abundance of organic material exposed in TP-3 (Lot 28), TP-18
(Lot 48) and TP-35 (Lot 42) can then be provided based on
specific lot development plans.
Laboratory testing and visual observation of the surface soils
indicate, medium to highly expansive soils are exposed across the
site. They should be taken into consideration by the design
consultants providing appropriate recommendations for
construction of all improvements and landscaping. If we may be
of further assistance and aid the other design consultants in
this regard, please contact our office for additional
consultation.
If in the future, any additional improvements are planned for the
site, recommendations concerning the geological or geotechnical

aspects of design, site preparation and construction of said
improvements could be provided upon request.
Additional Grading
This office should be notified in advance of any additional fill
placement, regrading of the site, or trench backfilling after
rough grading has been completed.
Graded Slope Maintenance
Water has been shown to weaken the inherent strength of all earth
materials. Slope stability is significantly reduced by overly
wet conditions. Irrigation for planted areas on and above slope
should be minimized to just support the vegetation and avoid
developing artificial groundwater accumulation. Only the amount
of irrigation necessary to sustain plant life should be provided.
overwatering should be avoided.
Drainaae
Positive site drainage should be maintained at all times.
Drainage should not flow uncontrolled down any descending slope.
Water should be directed away from foundations and not allowed to
pond and/or seep into the ground. Pad drainage should be
directed toward the street or other approved area.
Due to the nature of on site soils, local areas of seepage may
develop due to irrigation or heavy rainfall. Minimizing
irrigation will lessen this potential. If areas of seepage
develop, recommendations for minimizing this effect could be
provided upon request.
LIMITATIONS
The materials encountered on the project site and utilized in our
laboratory study are believed to be representative of the total
area. However, soil and bedrock materials may vary in character

between excavations and natural outcrops. Test excavations are
reflective of the soil and rock materials only at the specific
location explored. Site conditions may vary due to seasonal
changes or other factors.
Since our study is based on the site materials observed,
selective laboratory testing and engineering analyses, the
conclusions and recommendations are professional opinions based
upon those parameters. These opinions have been derived in
accordance with the current standards of practice and no warranty
is expressed or implied.
The opportunity to be of service is sincerely appreciated. If
you should have any questions, please call.

LABORATORY TESTING
General
Laboratory tests were performed on selected Soil Samples to
evaluate the physical characteristics of representative On site
materials.
Laboraton Standard-Maximum Dn Density
To determine the compaction character of representative samples
of onsite soils, laboratory testing was performed in accordance
with ASTM Test Method D-1557-78. The maximum density and optimum
moisture content from these tests are summarized below:
Maximum Density Optimum
Location DescriDtion Density Iwf) Moisture 8
Soil Type-A Yellowish gray
TP-1 @ 30' silty fine Sand 114.0
Soil Type-B Yellowish gray TP-3 @ 3' silty fine Sand 115.5
Soil Type-C Yellowish gray
TP-15 @ 2' silty fine Sand 117.0
Soil Type-D Yellowish brown
TP-23 @ 3.5' silty fine Sand 118.0
Soil Type-E Yellowish gray TP-30 @ 2' silty fine Sand 113.5

Soil Type-G Dark olive gray B-1 @ 55.0' sandy Clay 121.5 12.5
Field Moisture and Density
For selected "undisturbed" samples of fill materials, the field
moisture content and dry unit weight were determined. The dry

unit weight was determined in pounds per cubic foot and the field
moisture content was determined as a percentage of the dry unit
weight. Where possible, the in-situ dry unit weight of the
samples were compared to the laboratory standard-maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content of the representative soil
types, to determine in place relative compaction of the materials
tested. The results of field density, field moisture content
and relative compaction determinations are summarized below:

Field Density Testing
Field density tests were performed in the test pits on
approximately 2 foot vertical intervals to determine in-situ
moisture and density of the fill material. Field density testing
was performed using the sand cone method (ASTM D-1556-82) or
nuclear density method (ASTM D-2922-81 and ASTM D-3017-78).
These test results were compared to the laboratory maximum dry
density and optimum moisture content (ASTM D-1557-78) of
representative soil types to determine in place relative
compaction of the materials tested. Both direct correlation and
visual classification of the soils in the field and lab were the
basis for determining which optimum moisture content and maximum
dry density values to use for a given density test. The test
results are presented below.

Expansion Tests
Swell tests were performed on remolded samples of near surface
soil. The samples were prepared at 80 percent of the optimum
moisture and at 90 percent of the maximum dry density, placed
under a 60 pound per square foot surcharge, and submerged in
water for 24 hours. The percent swell was then recorded as the
amount of vertical rise compared to the original one inch sample
height.
Expansion index tests were also performed on samples of the near
surface material. Testing was performed in accordance with
Standard 29-2 of the Uniform Building Code.
Test results are summarized below:
Expansion Location Swell % Expansion Index Potential Iswell/EIL
TP-3 @ 3' 13.1 92 critical/high
TP-6 @ 2' 5.6 23 moderate/low

deformation was approximately 0.025 inches per minute. The
samples were sheared and resheared under varying confining loads
in order to determine the Coulomb shear strength parameters,
cohesion and angle of internal friction. The samples were tested
in an artificially saturated condition. The results are plotted
on the enclosed Shear Test Diagrams, Plate SH-1 through SH-5.
Consolidation Test
Consolidation tests were performed on relatively undisturbed ring
samples in accordance with ASTM test method D-2435. This test
determines the magnitude of consolidation (or expansion), in
vertical percent volume change, when the soil sample is
restrained laterally and drained axially. This is accomplished
by placing the samples in a restraining apparatus and applying a
succession of vertical loads. Time dependant measurements then
record the amount of consolidation a particular sample undergoes
at each load increment. After the samples are fully loaded,
similar measurements are taken during the rebound of the sample
as the load is incrementally reduced. The results of the
consolidation tests are presented as Plates C-1 through C-15.
