Introduction '
This is to present the results of a soils investigation conducted at the site
of the proposed Pio Pico Professional Office Buildings located on the west side of
PioPico'Drive and north of Buena' Vista Avenue in Carlsbad, California." The proposed
two-story buildings are to be primarily of wood-frame construction. The southerly
building is to be constructed in the near future and the northerly building will' be
constructed at a later date.
The objectives of the investigation were to determine the general subsurface soil
conditions at the site and sufficient physical characteristics.of the soils so that
soil parameters and engineering recommendations could be presented for the design and
S , construction of the proposed building foundations. In order to accomplish these
objectives, four borings were drilled and both undisturbed and loose bulk samples 'were
obtained 'for laboratory testing.
S
,
Field Investigation -
Four borings were drilled, 20 i,nches in diameter, with a truck-mounted rotary
bucket-type drill rig at the approximate locations shown on the attached Drawing 1,
0 entitled "Location of Test Borings". The borings were drilled to a depth o'f 10.0 feet
blthe-existing ground surface. A continuous log of the soils encountered in the
,borings was recorded at the time of drilling and is shown in detail on Drawings 2 to
5, inclusive, each entitled "Summary Sheet".
The soils were visually classified by field identification procedures in accordance
with the Unified Soil Classification 'Chart. A simplified 'description of this
classification system is presented in the attached Appendix A at the end of this report.
-2-
Undisturbed samples were obtained at-intervals of 2 to 4 feet, in the
soils ahead of the drilling. The drop weight used for driving the sampling tube
into the soils was the "Kelly" bar of the drill rig which weighs 1402 pounds and the
average drop was 12 inches. The general procedures used in field sampling are described
under "Sampling" in the attached Appendix 'B.
.
Laboratory Tests
Laboratory tests were performed on all undisturbed samples of the soils in order
to determine the dry density, moisture content and shearing strength. The results
of these tests are presented on Drawings 2 to 5, inclusive. Consolidation tests were
performed on representative samples in order to determine the-load-settlement
characteristics of the soils and the results of these tests are presented graphically
on Drawings 6, 7 and 8, each entitled "Consolidation Curves".
The general procedures used for the preceding laboratory tests, are described
briefly in Appendix B
Compaction tests were performed on a. representative sample of the fill soils to
establish compaction criteria. The soils were tested according to the ASTM D 1557-78
method of compaction which uses 25 blows of a 10 pound rammer dropping 18 inches on
f
,
each of 5 layers in a 4-inch diameter 1/30th cubic foot mold. The'-results of the tests

DISCUSSION, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Soil Conditions
Fill was encountered to depths of 1.0, 2.0 and 2.5 fet, respectively, in
Borings 1, 2 and 3; These fill soils were dry and loose and the degree of compaction
of the fill soils between 1.5 and 2.0 feet in Baring 3 was determined to be 78.9 percent
of maximum dry density.
The natural soils underlying the fill in.Borings 1, 2 and 3 and below the surface
at Boring 4 consisted primarily of slightly silty fine sands, silty fine to medium sands.
and silty fine sand.; These natural soils were medium loose to a depth of 5 feet in
:Boring 1 and medium loose to medium compact between 2.0 and 6.0 feet in Boring 4.
Certain of these soils exhibited considerable consolidation under relatively small unit
loads.
It is concluded that all existing fill soils and compressible natural soils should
be removed in the proposed building areas and the areas should then be brought to
proposed finished grade with filled ground uniformly compacted to at least 90 percent
Tofnaxmumdrydefl—si tY Tt1da1 subgrade soils under
paiement to at least 90 percent of maximum dry density between .6 and 12 inches below
finished subgrade and to compact the upper 6 inches to 95 percent of maximum dry density.
. • .
Site Grading •
In order to provide adequate support for the.proposed buildings it is recommended
00
0.• that the existing fill and unsuitable compressible natural soils should be removed to
the depths as indicated on the following page

Required Depth of

No. in Feet
.1 5.0
2: 2.0
3 3.5 4 . 6.0
The removal should be within the proposed building area and should extend beyond
the perimeter footings a horizontal distance of 3.0 feet' plus a horizontal distance'
equal to the depth of removal below prOposed finished subgrade. After inspection has
indicated the satisfactory removal of existing soils to the required depth and limits,
the upper 9 inches of exposed soils should be scarified, moistened or dried to optimum
as required and uniformly compacted to at least 90 percent of maximum dry-density. The
area may then be brought to proposed finished subgrade by placing and compacting filled
ground to least 90 percent of maximum dry density in accordance with the applicable
sections of the attached Appendix,AA entitled "Standard Specifications For Placement
of Compacted Filled Ground". The removal of unsuitable soils
, and placing of filled
ground should be accomplished under continuous engineering inspection.
The subgrade soils in proposed paved areas should,be uniformly compacted to at least
'90 percent of maximum dry density if placed as filled ground or in the zone between 6
and 12 inches below finished subgrade in cut areas. 'The upper 6 inches of subgrade soils
'
in all areas slould be uniformly compacted to at least 95 percent of maximum dry density.
Design Réconif66n'dàt1'ós
'Provided the fill is placed,1 compacted and inspected in accordance with the above
recommended site grading procedures, continuous footings at least one foot in width and
placed at least one foot 'below the lowest adjacent compacted ground surface may be
'designed using an allowable bearing value of 2000 pounds per square foot. Square footings
at least 2.0 'feet wide and founded at a depth of one foot below the final compacted ground
surface may be designed' using an allowable 'bearing value of 2500 pounds per square foot."
These values are for dead plus live loads and may be increased one-third for combined
BENTON ENGINEERING. INC.
-5-
dead, live, wind and seismic loadings.
Based on the results of the load-consolidation tests, the settlement of a one
foot wide continuous footing founded as recommended on compacted filled ground and
loaded to 2000 pounds per square foot is estimated to be on the order of 1/8 inch. The
settlement of a 2.0 feet square footing supporting a column loadof 10 kips is estimated
to be approximately ¼ inch.
It is concluded from the classification of the soils encountered in the exploration
borings that the soils would all be classifieas having a very low expansion potential.
Therefore, special design for expansive soils will not be required.
Resistance to Lateral Loads
For lateral resistance an allowable passive pressure of 500 pounds per square foQt
may be used at a depth of one foot below the surface of the compacted filled ground and
this may be increased at the rate of 200 pounds per square foot for each additional foot
of depth below one foot. • • •
A coefficient of -0.4 is recommended for the frictional resistance between the soil
and the bottom of the footing.

APPENDIX AA
STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS FOR PLACEMENT
OF COMPACTEDFILLED GROUND
General Description. The objective, is to attain uniformity and adequate internal strength
in filled ground by proven engineering procedures and tests so that the proposed structures
may be safely supported. The procedures include the clearing and grubbing, removal of
existing structures, preparationof land to be filled, filling of the land, the spreading, and
compaction of the filled areas to conform with the lines, grades, and slopes as shown on the
accepted plans.
The owner shall employ a qualified soils engineer to inspect and test the flied ground as
placed to verify the uniformity of compaction of filled ground to the specified 90 percent
of maximum dry density. The soils engineer shall advise the owner and grading contractor
immediately if any unsatisfactory conditions are observed to exist and shall have the
authority to reject the compacted filled ground until such time that corrective measures
are taken necessary to comply with the specifications. It shall be the sole responsibility
of the grading contractor to achieve the specified degree of compaction.
Clearing, Grubbing, and Preparing Areas to be Filled.
All brush, vegetation and any rubbish-shall be removed, piled, and burned or other-
wise disposed of so as to leave the areas to be filled free of vegetation and debris.
Any soft, swampy or otherwise unsuitable areas shall be corrected by draining or
removal, or both.
The natural ground which is determined to be satisfactory for the support of the filled
01 ground shall then be plowed or scarified to a depth of at least six inches (6"), and
until the surface is free from ruts, hummocks, or other uneven features which would
-- - - - -
Where fills ore made on hillsides or exposed slope areas, greater than 10 percent,
horizontal benches shall be cut into firm undisturbed natural ground in order to provide
both lateral and vertical stability. This is to provide a horizontal base so that each
layer Is placed and compacted on a horizontal plane. The initial bench at the toe of
the fill shall be at least 10 feet in width on firm undisturbed natural ground at the eleva-
tion of the toe stoke placed at the natural angle of repose or design slope. The soils
engineer shall determine the widthand frequency of all succeeding benches which will
vary with the soil conditions and the steepness of slope. - -
APPENDIX AA
-2-
(d) After the natural ground has been prepared, it shall then be brought to the proper mois-
ture content and compacted to not less than ninety percent of maximum density in
accordance with AS.T.M. D-1557-78 method that uses 25 blows of a 10 pound hammer
falling from 18 inches on each of 5 layers in a 4" diameter cylindrical mold of a 1/30th
cubic foot volume.
Materials and Special Requirements. The fill soils shall consist of select materials so graded
that at least 40 percent of the material passes a No. 4 sieye. This may be obtained from
the excavation of banks, borrow pits of any other approved sources and by mixing soils from
one or more sources. The material used shall be free from vegetable matter, and other de-
leterious substances, and shall not contain rocks or lumps of greater than 6 inches in diameter.
If excessive vegetation, rocks / or soils with inadequate strength.or other unacceptable physical
characteristics are encountered, these shall be disposed of in waste areas as shown on the
plans or as directed by the soils engineer. If during grading operations, soils not encountered
and tested in the preliminary investigation are found, tests on these soils shall be performed to
determine their physical characteristics. Any special treatment recommended in the preliminary
or subsequent soil reports not covered herein shall become an addendum to these specifications.
The testing and specifications for the compaction of subgrade,subbase, and base materials for
roads, streets, highways, or other:public property or rights-of-way shall be in accordance
with those of the governmental agency having jurisdiction.
Placing, Spreading, and Compacting Fill Materials.
The suitable fill material shall be placed in layers which, when compacted shall not
exceed six inches (6"). Each layer shall be spread evenly and shall be throughly
mixed during the spreading to insure uniformity of material and moisture in each layer.
When the moisture content of the fill material is below that specified by the soils engineer,
water shall be added until +ie moisture content is near optimum as specified by the
soils engineer to assure thorough bonding during the compacting 'process.
When the moisture content of the fill material is above that specified by the soils
- ---engineer, _ih fiiima'teri'l:.:shallbe:a'e,ated'by:biading
factory methods until the moisture content is near optimum as specified by the soils
engineer.
I (d) After each layer has been placed, mixed and spread evenly, it shall be thoroughly
compacted to not less than ninety percent of maximum density in accordance with
A.S.TOM. .D-1557-78 modified as described in 2 (d) above. Compaction shall be
accomplished with 'sheepsfodt rollers, multiple-wheel pneumatic-tired rollers, or other
approved types of compaction equipment, such as vibratory equipment that is specially
designed for certain soil types. Rollers shall be of such design that they will be able
' ' •

to compact the fill material to the specified density. Rolling shalt be accomplished
while the fill material is at the specified moisture content. Rolling of each layer
shall be continuous over Its entire area and the roller shall make sufficient trips to
Insure that the desired density has been obtained. The entire areas to be filled shall
be compacted.
Fill slopes shall be compacted by means of sheepsfoot rollers or other suitable equip-
ment. Compacting operations shall be continued until the slopes are stable but not
too dense for planting and until there is no appreciable amount of loose soil on the
slopes. Compacting of the slopes shall be accomplished by backrolling the slopes in
increments of 3 to 5 feet in elevation gain or by other methods producing satisfactory
results.
Field density tests shall be taken by the soils engineer for approximately each foot In
elevation gain after compaction, but not to exceed two feet in vertical height
between tests. Field density tests may be taken at intervals of 6 Inches in elevation
gain If required by the soils engineer. The location of the tests in plan shall be so
spaced to give the best possible coverage and shall be taken no farther apart than
lOOfeet. Tests shall be taken on corner and terrace lots for each two feet in eleva-
tion gain. The soils engineer may take additional tests as considered necessary to
check on the uniformity of compaction. Where sheepsfoot rollers are used, the tests
shall be token in the compacted material below the disturbed surface. No additional
layers of fill shall be spread until the field density tests indicate that the specified
density has been obtained.
The fill operation shall be continued In six Inch (6") compacted layers, as specified
above, until the fill has been brought to the finished slopes and grades as shown on
the accepted plans.
Inspection. Sufficient inspection by the soils engineer shall be maintained during the fill-
-Ing and compacting operations so that he can certify that the fill was constructed in accord-
ance with the accepted specifications.
Seasonal Limits. No fill material shall be placed, spread, or rolled If weather conditions
Increase the moisture content above permissible limits. When the work is interrupted by
rain, fill operations shall not be resumed until field tests by the soils engineer Indicate that
- the moisture content and density of the fill are as previously specified.
All -recommendations presented In the "conclusions" section of the attached report are a part
of these specifications.
