In accordance with your request, we have prepared this report to update the referenced
geotechnical report with respect to site conditions and changes in the building code since the
original report was prepared. This report contains updated references to the 2010 California
Building Code (CBC), including updated seismic design parameters. In order to prepare this
update report, we have reviewed an updated site plan provided to us by Meracon Corporation on
September 25, 2013.
Current Site Conditions
The subject site is located within the recently mass graded Bressi Ranch Industrial Park which is
located southeast of the intersection of Palomar Airport Road and El Camino Real in the city of
Carlsbad, California. The specific site is a portion of Planning Area 3, Lots 10 through 13, and is
located northeast of the intersection of Gateway Road and El Camino Real. The general location
of the site is illustrated on the Site Location Map, included as Plate 1 of this letter.

The subject site is an irregularly-shaped parcel, approximately 8± acres in size. Graded slopes
ranging in height from 5 to 7± feet border the site to the north and east. Five (5) desilting
basins were located throughout the site. The desilting basins were approximately 6 to 8± feet
deep. At the time of this subsurface exploration, ground[ surface cover consisted of exposed soil
with moderate grass and weed growth. Abundant rodent burrows were observed throughout the
ground surface.
Preliminary[ topographic information was obtained from a plan prepared by ~mith Consulting
Architects (SCA) for the referenced geotechnical report. The site plan indicates that site grades
within Lots 10 through 13 range from elevation 325± feet mean sea level (msl) at the
northeastern property corner to an elevation of 295± feet msl at the southwestern property
corner.
Previous Studies
Southern California Geotechnical, Inc., (SCG) previously performed three (3) geotechnical
investigation for this site, the results of which were presented in the above referenced
geotechnical reports. The reports which are applicable to the subject site are summarized below:
• Geotechnical Investigation, Proposed Commercial/Industrial Development, Bressi Ranch
Lots 10 -13. Planning Area 3, Carlsbad. California; prepared for Levine Investments by
Southern California Geotechnical, Inc., dated January 23, 2008, Project No. 07G227-1.
This report presents the results of our previous geotechnical investigation of the subject site.
The work documented by this report occurred during the period of December 28, 2007 through
January 23, 2008. This report states that eight (8) borings were drilled within the site to depths
of 15 to 19½± feet. 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). The borings identified engineered fill soils extending to depths of up to 8± feet below
existing grade. Below the fill soils and at the ground surface of several borings, Santiago
Formation bedrock was observed to the maximum depth explored of 19½± feet below ground
surface. Groundwater was reportedly not encountered during drilling of any of the borings.
Corrective grading recommendations were provided in the report. It was recommended that
corrective grading removals of shallow bedrock for the two proposed building pad areas on the
order of 3 feet below existing grade and to a depth of 3 feet below proposed pad grade. In
addition, the depth of overexcavation was recommended to provide at least 3 feet of new
structural fill beneath the bearing grade of all foundations for the proposed buildings.

• Geotechnical Recommendations Concerning 95 Percent Relative Compaction of Fill
Dee-per than.· 40 Feet, Bressi Ranch, Carlsbad, California, prepared for Lennar
Communities· by .Leighton and Associates, Inc., dated February 13, 2003, Project No.
971009-007.
The three (3) SCG reports listed above all reference this 2003 Leighton report which addresses
the settlement potential of deep fl.II 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 40 to 50± 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 within PA-3 and PA-
S. 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 m9ximum dry density, and estimates that
the time period for the majority of the settlement to occur will be reduced 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.
Plan Review
A detailed grading plan was not available at the time of this report update. However, we were
provided with a proposed undated site plan which showed the general location of the two (2)
Proposed Commercial Buildings -Carlsbad, CA
Project No. 13Gl76-1
Page 3
proposed buildings. The site plan the proposed development was reviewed with regard to the
assumptions, conclusions, and recommendations of the above referenced geotechnical reports.
The proposed site plan indicates that two (2) new three-story buildings will be constructed at the
subject site. The plan indicates that the western-most building is identified as Building 10 with a
total area of 77,400 ft2 and the eastern-most building is identified as Building 11 with a total
area of 65,700 ft2. It is our assumed that the new buildings buildings will be of concrete tilt-up
construction typically supported on conventional shallow foundation systems and concrete slabs
on grade with no basement structures. Based on the a$sumed construction, maximum column
and wall loads are expected to be on the order of 60 to 80 kips and 3 to 5 kips per linear foot,
respectively.
Comments generated during our review of these plans are presented below:
• Based on information provided to us by the client, Building 10 is located in the same vicinity
as Borings B-11 and B-13 of SCG report 06G252-1 and Boring B-1 of SCG report 07G227-1.
• Based on information provided to us by the client, Building 11 is located in the same vicinity
as Borings B-5 and B-10 of SCG report 06G252-1 and Boring B-7 of SCG report 07G227-1.
• Based on information provided to us by the client and on our previous geotechnical
investigations, the western half of propose~ Building 10 is presently underlain by fill soils
and the eastern half of Building 10 is presently underlain by Santiago Formation bedrock.
• Based on information provided to us by the client and on our previous geotechnical
investigations, proposed Building 11 is presently entirely underlain by Santiago formation
bedrock.
• The site plan indicates that several bioretention systems Will be constructed throughout the
site. Based on conversations with the project civil engineer, it is our understanding that the
biorentention system will be designed such that no water entering the bioretention system
will be allowed to infiltrate and/or percolate into the surrounding soils via the properly
designed and installed water-proof plastic liners.
Once the full set of grading plans has been developed, it is recommended that the geotechnical
engineer review these plans for conformance with the geotechnical report.
Seismic Design Parameters
As of January 1, 2011, the 2010 CBC was adopted by all municipalities within Southern
California. The CBC provides procedures for earthquake resistant structural design that include
considerations for on-site soil conditions, occupancy, and the configuration of the structure
including the structural system and height. The seismic design parameters presented below are
based on the soil profile andthe proximity of .known faults with respect to the subject site.
The 2010 CBC Seismic Design Parameters have peen generated using Earthquake Ground
Motion Parameters, a software application developed by the United States Geological Survey.
This software application, available at the USGS web site calculates seismic design parameters in

Seismic Lateral Earth Pressures
In addition to the lateral earth pressures presented in Section 6.7 of the above referenced
report, the 2010 CBC requires that for structures assigned to Seismic Design Categories D
through F, retaining walls should be designed for lateral earth pressures due to earthquake
motion. 1he recommended seismic pressure distribution is triangular in shape, with a maximum
magnitude of 16H lbs/ft', where H is the overall height of the wall. The maximum pressure
Should be assumed to occur at the top of the wall, decreasing to O at the base of the wall. The
seismic pressure distribution is based on the Mononobe-Okabe equation, utilizing a peak ground
acceleration of 0.32g. This peak site acceleration was obtained in accordance with the 2010
CBC~ aild is equal to Sos/2.5.
Limited Exploration/Sampling Methods
We were specifically requested by Smith Consulting Architects, the project architect, to perform
laboratory testing for soils in the vicinity of the proposed buildings. Therefore, the subsurface
exploration conduc;ted for this phase of the project consisted of two (2) borings advanced to
depths of 3 to 3½± feet below currently existing site grades in order to collect surficial soil
samples for laboratory testing. Both 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. 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 tr,,nsported to our laboratory.
The approximate locations of the borings are indicated on the Boring Location Plan, included as
Plate 2 of this letter report. The Boring Logs, which illustrate the conditions encountered at the
Proposed Commercial Buildings -Carlsbad, CA
Project No. 13G176-1
Page 5
boring locations, as well as some of the results of the laboratory testing, are included in this
report.
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 t,.ogs, included in. this report.
Artificial Fill
Artificial fill soils were encountered at the ground $Urface at Boring B-1. These fill soils extend
to depths of 2± feet below existing grade. As previously discussed, the fill soils within other
areas of PA-3 are documented to have maximum depths of 40 to 50± feet. The fill soils
encountered in this boring generally consist of dense silty fine sands. 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 at the ground surface or beneath the fill soils at both of the boring
locations. The bedrock encountered at this site consists of Tertiary age Santiago Formation,
which is comprised of dense to very dense sandstone. 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 sands.
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 3½±
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 40 to 50± feet thick within PA-3.
Geologic Conditions
Geologic research indicates that the site is Linder.lain by sandstone mapped as the Santiago
Formation (Map Symbol Tsa) with nearly hodzontal 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. California, 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 bedrock consisting of the Santiago Formation (Map Symbol Tsa). The
bedrock encountered in the exploratory borings and observed at the ground surface is generally
massively bedded with some moderately developed joints in the upper, less weathered portions
of the bedrock.

Updated 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 befow. 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 D-2488. Field identifications were then supplemented with additional
visual classifications and/or by laboratory testing. The uses classifications are shown on the
Boring 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 D-2937.
The results are recorded as dry unit weight in pounds per cubic foot. The moisture contents are
determined in accordance with ASTM D-2216, and are. expressed as a percentage of the dry
weight. These test results are presented on the Boring Logs.
Resistivity and pH Testing
The resistivity of the soils is a measure of their potential to attack buried metal improvements
such as utility lines, The results of the resistivity and pH testing are presented below. These test
results are as follows:

A representative sample of the near-surface soils was 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 a subsequent section of this report;

Updated Soluble Sulfate-related Recommendations
The results -of the soluble sulfate testing indicate that the selected sample of the on-site soils
· contains a level of soluble sulfates that ·is classified as having a moderate potential to attack
concrete, in accordance with the American Concrete Institute (ACI) Publication 318-05 Building
Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary, Section 4.3. Therefore, it is
recommended that a sulfate-resistant concrete mix design be utilized for the foundations and
floor slabs at this site. In accordance with the .ACI requirements, it is recommended that this
concrete incorporate the following characteristics:
•
•
•
Cement Type:
Minimum Compressive Strength (f'c) =
Maximum Water/Cement Ratio:
II (Five)
4,000 lbs/in2
0.50
It is recommended that additional sulfate testing be performed at the completion of rough
grading to verify the concentrations which are present in the actual building pad subgrade soils.
Corrosion Potential
. The results of the electrical resistivity arid pH testing indicate that samples of the on-site soils
have resistivities of 1400 to 9700 ohm-cm, and pH values of 8.0 and 8.1. These test results have
been evaluated in accordance with guidelines published by the Ductile Iron Pipe Research
Association (DIPRA). The DIPRA guidelines consist of a point system by which characteristics of
the soils are used to quantify the corrosivity characteristics of the site. Resistivity and pH are two
of the five factors that enter into the evaluation procedure. Relative soil moisture content as well
as redox potential and sulfides are also included. Although redox potential and sulfide testing
were not part of the scope of services for this project, we have evaluated the corrosivity
characteristics of the on-site soils using resistivity, pH and moisture content. Based on these
factors, and utilizing the DIPRA procedure, some of the on-site soils are considered
to be severely corrosive to ductile iron pipe. Therefore, it is expected that polyethylene
encasement Will be required for ductile iron pipe. The client may also wish to contact a
corrosion engipeer to provide a more thorough evaluation.
Further Plan Reviews
It is recommended that copies of the final grading plans, when they become available, also be
provided to our office for review. We also recommend that our office review the foundations
plans for the proposed development, as they become available.
