RE Geotechnical Engineering Investigation - Proposed Office Development
- Located at the Northwest Corner of Cammo Vida Roble and Corte Del
Nogel, in the City of Carlsbad, California
Dear Mr Boureston
Pursuant to your request, this firm has performed a Geotechnical Engineering
Investigation for the above referenced project in accordance with your approval of
proposal dated March 18, 2002 The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate the
subsurface conditions of the subject site and to provide recommendations for the
proposed office development
The scope of work included the following 1) site reconnaissance, 2) subsurface
geotechnical exploration and sampling, 3) laboratory testing, 4) engineering analysis of
field and laboratory data, and 5) preparation of a geotechnical engineering report It is
the opinion of this firm that the proposed development is feasible from a geotechnical
standpoint provided that the recommendations presented in this report are followed in
the design and construction of the project
April 25, 2002 Project Number 9851-02
Page 2
1 0 project Description
It is proposed to construct an office development on the 4 02-acre subject parcel The
development will consist of five, two-story structures with conventional slab-on-grade
foundation systems with perimeter-spread footings and isolated interior footings Other
improvements will consist of asphalt/concrete pavement, hardscape, and landscaping It
is assumed that the proposed grading for the development will include minor cut and fill
procedures Final building plans shall be reviewed by this firm prior to submittal for city
approval to determine the need for any additional study and revised recommendations
pertinent to the proposed development, if necessary
2 0 Site Description
The generally rectangular-shaped parcel approximately 4 02 acres in area is situated
within the Palomar Airport Business Park at the northwest corner of Cammo Via Roble
and Corte Del Nogel, in the city of Carlsbad The undeveloped site has been previously
mass graded with topography of the relatively level parcel descending in a north to south
direction The site is bordered by graded slopes on the order of 2 to 1 (horizontal to
vertical) with a maximum height of about 20 feet These slopes are covered with
irrigated landscaped vegetation with drainage swales to control surface runoff The
property is currently covered with sparse vegetation cover
3 0 Background Information
The subject property (Lot 4) lies within Palomar Airport Business Park and consists of
several individual lots located within P M 10002 which had been recently rough graded
for future development The earthwork operations were geotechnically observed and
tested by Robert Prater Associates as described by their report titled, "Earthwork
Observations and Testing Services", dated March 9, 1982
NorCal Engineering
April 25, 2002 Project Number 9851-02
PageS
Based upon review of the Prater report, the subject lot was noted to be predominately a
transition cut/fill lot The transition was reviewed to traverse along the middle portion of
the property with engineered fills placed to the west, north and south and bedrock
exposed at the surface to the easterly portion of the lot The maximum depth of fill
placed is about 31 feet
40 Site Exploration
The investigation consisted of the placement of eight (8) subsurface exploratory
trenches by a backhoe to a maximum depth of 18 feet and three (3) borings by a drilling
rig to a maximum depth of 21 feet below current ground elevations The explorations
were visually classified and logged by a field engineer with locations of the subsurface
explorations shown on the attached Site Plan The exploratory borings revealed the
existing earth materials to consist of an engineered fill and bedrock A detailed
description of the subsurface conditions is listed on the excavation logs in Appendix A
It should be noted that the transition from one soil type to another as shown on the
boring logs is approximate and may in fact be a gradual transition The materials
encountered are described as follows
Fill An engineered fill soil classifying as a silty SAND to clayey SAND was
encountered which were noted to be medium dense to dense and moist These
soils were noted to contain some minor gravel and occasional thin lenses of clay
Some organics were found in the soils below 5 feet with corresponding odors The
upper fill soils were medium dense ranging from 11/z to 9 feet and generally dense
below these upper levels
Bedrock. A moderately cemented silty sandstone of the Santiago Formation, was
encountered either at the surface or beneath the upper fill soils The sandstone
was generally light grey to greyish brown and observed to be very dense and
damp The bedrock was generally massive and contained some locally cemented
concretions

April 25, 2002 Project Number 9851-02
Page 4
The overall characteristics of the earth material were relatively uniform with each
exploratory boring No groundwater was encountered to the depth of our excavations
and no caving occurred
5.0 Laboratory Tests
Relatively undisturbed samples of the subsurface soils were obtained to perform
laboratory testing and analysis for direct shear, consolidation tests, and to determine m-
place moisture/densities These relatively undisturbed ring samples were obtained by
driving a thin-walled steel sampler lined with one inch long brass rings with an inside
diameter of 2 42 inches into the undisturbed soils
Bulk bag samples were obtained in the upper soils for expansion index, maximum
density and sulfate tests Wall loadings on the order of 4,000 Ibs /hn ft and maximum
compression loads on the order of 100 kips were utilized for testing and design
purposes All test results are included in Appendix B, unless otherwise noted
5 1 Field moisture content (ASTM D 2216) and the dry density of the ring samples were
determined in the laboratory This data is listed on the logs of explorations
5 2 Maximum density tests (ASTM D-1557-00) were performed on typical samples of the
upper soils Results of these tests are shown on Table I
5 3 Expansion index tests in accordance with the Uniform Building Code Standard No 29-
2 were performed on remolded samples of the upper soils Results of these tests are
provided on Table II
5 4 Atterberg Limits (ASTM D 4318-84) consisting of liquid limit, plastic limit and plasticity
index were performed on representative soil samples Results are shown on Table III
5 5 Corrosion tests consisting of sulfate, pH, resistivity and chloride analysis to determine
potential corrosive effects of soils on concrete and underground utilities were performed
in the laboratory Test results are provided on Table IV

5 6 R-Value test per California Test Method 301 was performed on a representative
sample, which may be anticipated to be near subgrade to determine pavement design
Result provided within pavement section design section of report
5 7 Direct shear tests (ASTM D-3080) were performed on undisturbed and disturbed
samples of the subsurface soils The test is performed under saturated conditions at
loads of 500 Ibs /sq ft, 1,000 Ibs /sq ft, and 2,000 Ibs /sq ft with results shown on Plate
A
5 8 Consolidation tests (ASTM D-2435) were performed on undisturbed samples to
determine the differential and total settlement which may be anticipated based upon the
proposed loads Water was added to the samples at a surcharge of one KSF and the
settlement curves are plotted on Plate B
6 0 Seismicity Evaluation
There are no known active or potentially active faults trending toward or through the site
The proposed development lies outside of any Alquist Pnolo Special Studies Zone and
the potential for damage due to direct fault rupture is considered very remote The site
is located in an area of high regional seismicity and a maximum credible horizontal
ground acceleration of 0 36g may occur from a Magnitude 6 9 earthquake along the
Rose Canyon fault zone, which is located approximately 6 miles away
Ground shaking originating from earthquakes along other active faults in the region is
expected to induce lower horizontal accelerations due to smaller anticipated
earthquakes and/or greater distances to other faults The following earthquake design
parameters are based upon the 1997 Uniform Building Code (UBC) for a Seismic Zone 4
with a Z factor of 0 40 and a Soil Profile Type of SD, based on a stiff soil profile

7.0 I iguefaction Evaluation
Our analysis indicates the potential for liquefaction at this site is considered to be very
low due to the lack of shallow groundwater and the presence of bedrock near the
surface Thus, the design of the proposed construction in conformance with the latest
Building Code provisions for earthquake design is expected to provide mitigation of
ground shaking hazards that are typical to Southern California
8.0 Slope Stability Evaluation
All slopes impacting the subject site are considered to be grossly and surficial stable
The slopes constructed during mass grading operations were built at a slope ratio no
greater than 2 to 1 (horizontal to vertical) and appear to be in accordance with previous
project plans and specifications These slopes would appear to possess safety factors
of 1 50 or greater for gross stability In addition, an observation of these slopes appears
to perform adequately with respect to surficial stability
However, to minimize future erosion, the slope maintenance recommendations should
be implemented The landscaping shall consist of a suitable proportion of deep-rooted
slope plantings classified as being drought resistant The possibility of construction
delays, weather conditions and plant growth may require additional erosion control
measures such as matting, netting and plastic sheeting

90 Conclusions and Recommendations
Based upon our evaluations, the proposed development is acceptable from a
geotechnical engineering standpoint By following the recommendations and guidelines
set forth in our report, the structures will be safe from excessive settlements under the
anticipated design loadings and conditions The proposed development shall meet all
requirements of the City Building Ordinance and will not impose any adverse effect on
existing adjacent structures
The following recommendations are based upon geotechnical conditions encountered in
our field investigation and laboratory data Therefore, these surface and subsurface
conditions could vary across the site Variations in these conditions may not become
evident until the commencement of grading operations and any unusual conditions
which may be encountered in the course of the project development may require the
need for additional study and revised recommendations
It is recommended that site inspections be performed by a representative of this firm
during all grading and construction of the development to verify the findings and
recommendations documented in this report The following sections present a
discussion of geotechnical related requirements for specific design recommendations of
different aspects of the project
9 1 Site Grading Recommendations
Any vegetation shall be removed and hauled from proposed grading areas prior to the
start of grading operations Existing vegetation shall not be mixed or disced into the
soils Any removed soils may be reutilized as compacted fill once any deleterious
material or oversized materials (in excess of eight inches) is removed Grading
operations shall be performed in accordance with the attached "Specifications for
Placement of Compacted Fill"
NorCal Engineering
April 25, 2002 Project Number 9851-02
PageS
9 1 1 Removal and Recompaction Recommendations
All medium dense fill soils ranging from 11/2 to 9 feet shall be removed to competent
material in the building areas, the exposed surface scarified to a depth of six inches,
brought to within 2% of optimum moisture content and compacted to a minimum of 90%
of the laboratory standard (ASTM D-1557-00) prior to placement of any additional
compacted fill soils, foundations, slabs-on-grade and pavement Grading shall extend a
minimum of five horizontal feet outside the edges of foundations or equidistant to the
depth of fill placed, whichever is greater
It is possible that isolated areas of undiscovered medium dense fill soils not described in
this report are present on site If found, these areas should be treated as discussed
earlier A diligent search shall also be conducted during grading operations in an effort
to uncover any underground structures, irrigation or utility lines If encountered, these
structures and lines shall be either removed, or properly abandoned prior to the
proposed construction
Any imported fill material should be preferably soil similar to the upper soils encountered
at the subject site All soils shall be approved by this firm prior to importing at the site
and will be subjected to additional laboratory testing to assure concurrence with the
recommendations stated in this report
Care should be taken to provide or maintain adequate lateral support for all adjacent
improvements and structures at all times during the grading operations and construction
phase Adequate drainage away from the structures, pavement and slopes should be
provided at all times
If placement of slabs-on-grade and pavement is not completed immediately upon
completion of grading operations, additional testing and grading of the areas may be
necessary prior to continuation of construction operations Likewise, if adverse weather
conditions occur which may damage the subgrade soils, additional assessment by the
geotechnical engineer as to the suitability of the supporting soils may be needed
NorCal Engineering
April 25, 2002 Project Number 9851-02
Page 9
9 1 7 Fill Blanket Recommendations
In areas of transition between the underlying bedrock and engineered fill encountered
during grading, additional overexcavation of the bedrock material consisting of a depth
of three feet below proposed foundations is required to mitigate the potential of
differential settlement Otherwise all foundations for each individual building or site wall
shall be embedded into engineered fill or all into bedrock material This fill shall extend
a minimum of five horizontal feet or to the depth of vertical overexcavation, whichever is
greater, beyond the outside edge of the perimeter foundation
92 Shrinkage and Subsidence
Results of our m-place density tests reveal that the soil shrinkage will be on the order of
less than 10% due to excavation and recompaction, based upon the assumption that the
fill is compacted to 92% of the maximum dry density per ASTM standards Subsidence
should be 0 2 feet due to earthwork operations The volume change does not include
any allowance for vegetation or organic stripping, removal of subsurface improvements
or topographic approximations Although these values are only approximate, they
represent our best estimate of lost yardage, which will likely occur during grading If
more accurate shrinkage and subsidence factors are needed, it is recommended that
field testing using the actual equipment and grading techniques should be conducted
9 3 Temporary Excavations
Temporary unsurcharged excavations in the existing site materials less than 5 feet high
may be made at a vertical gradient unless cohesionless soils are encountered
Temporary unsurcharged excavations from 5 to 8 feet high may be trimmed at a 1 to 1
(horizontal to vertical) gradient In areas where soils with little or no binder are
encountered, where adverse geological conditions are exposed, or where excavations
are adjacent to existing structures, shoring, slot-cutting, or flatter excavations may be
required The temporary cut slope gradients given do not preclude local raveling and
sloughing All excavations shall be made in accordance with the requirements of CAL-
OSHA and other public agencies having jurisdiction Care should be taken to provide or
maintain adequate lateral support for all adjacent improvements and structures at all
times during the grading operations and construction phase
NorCal Engineering

94 Foundation Design
All foundations for the proposed two-story office buildings may be designed utilizing the
following safe bearing capacities for an embedded depth of 18 inches into approved fill
materials with the corresponding widths
Allowable Safe Bearing Capacity (psf)
Continuous Isolated
Width (ft) Foundation Foundation
1 5 2000 2500
2 0 2075 2575
4 0 2275 2775
6 0 2500 3000
The bearing value may be increased by 500 psf for each additional foot of depth in
excess of the 30-inch minimum depth, up to a maximum of 4,000 psf A one third
increase may be used when considering short-term loading and seismic forces All
foundations located near adjacent slopes shall meet all setback criteria per the latest
Uniform Building Code (UBC)
All continuous foundations shall be reinforced a minimum of one No 4 bar, top and
bottom Isolated foundations shall be reinforced at the discretion of the Project
Structural Engineer A representative of this firm shall inspect all foundation excavations
prior to pouring concrete
95 Settlement Analysis
Resultant pressure curves for the consolidation tests are shown on Plate B
Computations utilizing these curves and the recommended safe bearing capacities
reveal that the foundations will experience settlements on the order of 3/4 inch and
differential settlements of less than 1/4 inch This differential settlement should occur
over a minimum horizontal distance of 20 feet

96 Lateral Resistance
The following values may be utilized in resisting lateral loads imposed on the structure
Requirements of the Uniform Building Code should be adhered to when the coefficient of
friction and passive pressures are combined
Coefficient of Friction - 0 40
Equivalent Passive Fluid Pressure = 250 Ibs leu ft
Maximum Passive Pressure = 2,500 Ibs /cu ft
The passive pressure recommendations are valid only for approved compacted fill soils
or bedrock material
97 Retaining Wall Design Parameters
Active earth pressures against retaining walls will be equal to the pressures developed
by the following fluid densities These values are for granular backfill material placed
behind the walls at various ground slopes above the walls

9 8 Slab Design
All concrete slabs-on-grade shall be at least four inches in thickness, and placed on
approved subgrade soils Reinforcement requirements and an increase in thickness of
the floor slabs may be necessary based upon proposed loading conditions in the
structures A minimum 6-mil thick vapor barrier overlain by a two-inch thick sand layer
should be utilized in areas which would be sensitive to the infiltration of moisture The
subgrade soils shall be moistened to optimum moisture concrete immediately prior to
pouring of concrete All concrete slab areas to receive floor coverings should be
moisture tested to meet all manufacturer requirements prior to placement
9 9 Pavement Section Design
The table below provides a preliminary pavement design based upon a R-Value of 58 for
the proposed pavement areas Final pavement design may need to be based on R-
Value testing of the subgrade soils near the conclusion of rough grading to assure that
these soils are consistent with those assumed in this preliminary design
Traffic Asphaltic Base
Type of Traffic Index Concrete (in) Material (in)
Automobile Parking Stalls 40 30 00
Automobile 50 30 30
Circulation Areas
Medium Truck Access Areas 60 35 40
(GVW < 42,000 Ibs , 3 axle)
The upper two feet of the subgrade soils in the pavement areas shall be compacted to
95% relative compaction A'I concrete slabs to be utilized for pavement shall be a
minimum of six inches in thickness and placed on approved subgrade soils Final
pavement section designs for pavement areas may need to be determined by additional
testing of the subgrade near the conclusion of grading operations In addition, the above
recommendations are based upon estimated traffic loads Client should submit
anticipated traffic loadings, when available, so that pavement sections may be reviewed
to determine adequacy to support these loads
NorCal Engineering
April 25, 2002 Project Number 9851-02
Page 13
Any approved base material shall consist of a Class II aggregate or equivalent and
should be compacted to a minimum of 95% relative compaction All pavement materials
shall conform to the requirements set forth by the City of Carlsbad The base material
and asphaltic concrete should be tested prior to delivery to the site and during
placement to determine conformance with the project specifications A pavement
engineer shall designate the specific asphalt mix design to meet the required project
specifications
9 10 Utility Trench and Excavation Backfill
Trenches from installation of utility lines and other excavations may be backfilled with
on-site soils or approved imported soils compacted to a minimum of 90% relative
compaction All utility lines shall be properly bedded with clean sand having a sand
equivalency rating of 30 or more This bedding material shall be thoroughly water jetted
around the pipe structure prior to placement of compacted backfill soils
9 11 Corrosion Design Criteria
Representative samples of the surficial soils, typical of the subgrade soils expected to be
encountered within foundation excavations and underground utilities were tested for
corrosion potential The minimum resistivity value obtained for the samples tested is
representative of an environment that may be corrosive to metals The soil pH value
was considered mildly acidic and shall not have a significant effect on soil corrosivity
Consideration should be given to corrosion protection systems for buried metal such as
protective coatings, wrappings or the use of PVC where permitted by local building
codes
According to the '1994 Uniform Building Code (UBC) Table 19-A-3 - Requirements for
Concrete Exposed to Sulfate-Contammg Solutions', these contents revealed negligible
levels of sulfate exposure Therefore, a Type II cement according to latest UBC
specifications may be utilized for building foundations at this time Additional sulfate
tests shall be performed at the completion of site grading to assure that these soils are
consistent with the recommendations stated in this design Corrosivity test results may
be found on the attached Table IV

10.0 Closure
The recommendations and conclusions contained in this report are based upon the soil
conditions uncovered in our test excavations No warranty of the soil condition between
our excavations is implied NorCal Engineering should be notified for possible further
recommendations if unexpected to unfavorable conditions are encountered during
construction phase It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all information
within this report is submitted to the Architect and appropriate Engineers for the project
This firm should have the opportunity to review the final plans to verify that all our
recommendations are incorporated This report and all conclusions are subject to the
review of the controlling authorities for the project
A preconstruction conference should be held between the developer, general contractor,
grading contractor, city inspector, architect, and soil engineer to clarify any questions
relating to the grading operations and subsequent construction Our representative
should be present during the grading operations and construction phase to certify that
such recommendations are complied within the field
This geotechnical investigation has been conducted in a manner consistent with the
level of care and skill exercised by members of our profession currently practicing under
similar conditions in the Southern California area No other warranty, expressed or
implied is made
We appreciate this opportunity to be of service to you If you have any further questions,
please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned

SPECIFICATIONS FOR PLACEMENT OF COMPACTED FILL
Excavation
Any existing low density soils and/or saturated soils shall be removed to competent
natural soil under the inspection of the Soils Engineering Firm After the exposed
surface has been cleansed of debris and/or vegetation, it shall be scarified until it is
uniform in consistency, brought to the proper moisture content and compacted to a
minimum of 90% relative compaction (in accordance with ASTM D-1557-00) In any
area where a transition between fill and native soil or between bedrock and soil are
encountered or other areas as required in this report, additional excavation beneath
foundations and slabs will be necessary in order to provide uniform support and avoid
differential settlement of the structure Verification of elevations during this work and all
grading operations will be the responsibility of the owner or his designated
representative and not NorCal Engineering
Material For Fill
The on-site soils or approved import soils may be utilized for the compacted fill provided
they are free of any deleterious materials and shall not contain any rocks, brick,
asphaltic concrete, concrete or other hard materials greater than eight inches in
maximum dimensions Any import soil must be approved by the Soils Engineering firm a
minimum of 24 hours prior to importation of site
Placement of Compacted Fill Soils
The approved fill soils shall be placed in layers not excess of six inches in thickness
Each lift shall be uniform in thickness and thoroughly blended The fill soils shall be
brought to within 15% of the optimum moisture content, unless otherwise specified by
the Soils Engineering firm Each lift shall be compacted to a minimum of 90% relative
compaction (in accordance with ASTM D-1557-00) and approved prior to the placement
of the next layer of soil Compaction tests shall be obtained at the discretion of the Soils
Engineering firm but to a minimum of one test for every 500 cubic yards placed and/or
for every 2 feet of compacted fill placed
NorCal Engineering
April 25, 2002 Project Number 9851-02
Page 16
The minimum relative compaction shall be obtained in accordance with accepted
methods in the construction industry The final grade of the structural areas shall be in a
dense and smooth condition prior to placement of slabs-on-grade or pavement areas
No fill soils shall be placed, spread or compacted during unfavorable weather conditions
When the grading is interrupted by heavy rams, compaction operations shall not be
resumed until approved by the Soils Engineering firm
Grading Observations
The controlling governmental agencies should be notified prior to commencement of any
grading operations This firm recommends that the grading operations be conducted
under the observation of a Soils Engineering firm as deemed necessary A 24 hour
notice must be provided to this firm prior to the time of our initial inspection
Observation shall include the clearing and grubbing operations to assure that all
unsuitable materials have been properly removed, approve the exposed subgrade in
areas to receive fill and in areas where excavation has resulted in the desired finished
grade and designate areas of overexcavation, and perform field compaction tests to
determine relative compaction achieved during fill placement In addition, all foundation
excavations shall be observed by the Soils Engineering firm to confirm that appropriate
bearing materials are present at the design grades and recommend any modifications to
construct footings

RE Temporary Cut Slope Recommendations - Proposed Office
Development - Located at the Northwest Corner of Cammo Vida
Roble and Corte Del Nogel, in the City of Carlsbad, California
Dear Mr Boureston
Pursuant to your request, this firm has prepared temporary cut slope
recommendations for excavations near the toe of slope along the north and
northeast perimeter of the building pad area at the subject site The existing
slopes were placed at a 2 to 1 (horizontal to vertical) gradient with heights from
15 to 50 feet above the building pad level
The proposed cuts behind the new retaining walls should be made vertical up to
5 feet high, then trimmed at a 1 to 1 grade up to the current elevation Wedge
failure surfaces were analyzed at four locations along the new wall to compute
the temporary safety factors The results of our updated temporary cut slope
stability analysis indicate the proposed cut slopes have a minimum safety factor
of 1 25 and are grossly stable during short term construction periods
Care should be taken to prevent any surcharge loads or equipment placed above
the temporary cut slopes Some minor ravelling of slope materials may occur
and no water or runoff from the upper slopes should dram into the temporary
excavations All grading activities should be inspected and approved by this firm
prior to placement of steel and concrete
We appreciate this opportunity to be of service to you If you have any further
questions, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned

RE Updated Foundation Recommendations - Proposed Office Development - Located
at the Northwest Corner of Cammo Vida Roble and Corte Del Nogel, Carlsbad,
California
Dear Mr Boureston
Pursuant to your request, this firm has provided updated foundation design parameters for the
above referenced project All foundations shall be designed utilizing the following safe bearing
capacities for an embedded depth of 18 inches into approved engineered fill or competent
bedrock material with the corresponding widths
Allowable Safe Bearing Capacity (psf)
Continuous Isolated
Width (ft) Foundation Foundation
1 5 2000 2500
2 0 2075 2575
4 0 2275 2775
6 0 2500 3000
The bearing value may be increased by 500 psf for each additional foot of depth in excess of the
18-inch minimum depth, up to a maximum of 4,000 psf A one third increase may be used when
considering short-term loading and seismic forces All foundations located near adjacent slopes
shall meet all setback criteria per the latest Uniform Building Code (UBC)
July 2, 2002
Page 2
- Project Number 9851-02
All continuous foundations shall be reinforced a minimum of one No 4 bar, top and bottom
Isolated foundations shall be reinforced per the discretion of the project structural engineer A
representative of this firm shall inspect all foundation excavations prior to pouring concrete
