Subject: Report of Soil Investigation
Addendum No. 1 - Proposed Seawall
Residential Lot
2600 Block Ocean Street
Carlsbad, California
Dear Mr. Grosse:
Job No. 85-14016
In accordance with your request, Geotechnlcal Exploration, Inc. is
providing the attached addendum no. 1 to our original "Report of Soil
Investigation" for the subject site. The purpose of our additional
investigation was to evaluate the condition of the soils at the location of
the subject proposed seawall. It is our understanding that a concrete
gravity wall is to be constructed approximately 12 feet east of the west
property line (see Figure No. I).
The "Report of Soil Investigation" dated June 13, 1985 (Job No. 85-4016)
is still considered valid for the proposed residential development, and the
following conclusions and recommendations are in addition to those in the
original report.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The following conclusions and recommendations .are based upon the
additional recent field investigation conducted by our firm and resulting
laboratory tests, in conjunction with our knowledge and experience with
the soils in the City of Carlsbad.
7420 TRADE STREET • SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA 92121 • (619) 549-7222
Proposed Seawall Job No. 85-4016
Carlsbad, California Page 2
Our investigation revealed that at the location of the proposed seawall,
the site is underlain by dense formational materials with a surface layer of
beach sand and terrace deposits that typically extends approximately 3
feet below the existing surface. This surface soil will not provide a stable
soil base for the proposed seawall. As such, recommendations have been
made to embed the seawall foundation into the underlying formational
soils.
A. Design Parameters for the Proposed Seawall
The seawall foundation shall he embedded a minimum nf 5 feet into
dense formational material due to concern for potential scouring by
storm surf action.
The recommended allowable load-bearing value (at a minimum depth
of 5 feet into the dense formational soils) is 6,000 pounds per square
foot. This load-bearing value may be utilized in the design of the
seawall foundation when founded a minimum of 5 feet into the firm
natural ground, measured from the bottom of the footing to the
lowest adjacent grade at the time of foundation construction. This
load-bearing value may be increased one-third for design loads that
include wind or seismic analysis.
The active earth pressure (to be utilized in the design of the
proposed unrestrained seawall) shall be based on an Equivalent
Fluid Weight of 38 pounds per cubic foot (for level backfill only).
In the event that the seawall is surcharged by sloping backfill, the
design active earth pressure shall he based on the appropriate
Equivalent Fluid Weight presented in the following table:
Proposed Seawall Job No. 85-11016
Carlsbad, California Page 3
Height of Slope/ Height of Wall*
Slope Ratio 0.25 0.50 0.75 1.00 (+)
1.5:1.0
(cut only) 52 60 68 70
2.0:1.0
(cut or fill) 44 148 50 52
*To determine design active earth pressures for ratios intermediate
to those presented, interpolate between the stated values.
In the event that a retaining wall is to he designed for restrained
condition, a uniform pressure equal to 8xH (eight times the total
height of retained soil, considered in pounds per snuare foot) shall
be considered as acting everywhere on the back of the wall In
addition to the design Equivalent Fluid Weight.
4. The passive earth pressure of the undisturbed natural-ground soils
(to be used for design of the seawall foundations and footings to
resist the lateral forces) shall be based on an Equivalent Fluid
Weight of 350 pounds per cubic foot. This passive earth pressure
shall only be considered valid for design if the ground djacent to
the foundation structure is essentially level for a distance of at least
three times the total depth of the foundation.
S. A Coefficient of Friction of 0.0 times the dead load may he used
between the bearing soils and seawall foundations. If the coeffi-
cient of friction is to be used in conjunction with passive earth
pressures, the coefficient shall be reduced to 0.35.
B. General Recommendations
6. The design and installation of any necessary, temporary shoring
shall be the responsibility of the general contractor. Bids shall
include all costs associated with engineering design and shoring plan
preparation. Any damage resulting from inadequate shoring shall be
the responsibility of the general contractor.
Proposed Seawall Job No. 85-4016
Carlsbad, California "age 4
Where not superceded by specific recommendations presented in
this report, trenches, excavations and temporary slopes at the
subject site shall be constructed in accordance with subparagraph
(1) paragraph (f), of section 1541 of Title 8, Construction Safety
Orders, issued by OSHA.
GRADING NOTES
Any required grading operations shall be performed in accordance with
the general earthwork specifications (Appendix B) and the requirements
of the City of Crrlsbad Grading Ordinance, under the observation of a
qualified Soils Engineer or supervised Field Soils Technician.
Geotechnlcal Exploration, Inc. requires that a soils engineer verify
the actual soil conditions revealed during site grading work and
footing excavation to he anticipated in the "Report of Soil
Investigation" for this project. In addition, the compaction of any
fill soils placed during site grading work must be tested by a
representative of our firm or other qualified field technician. It is
the responsibility of the grading contractor to comply with the
requirements on the grading plans and .the local grading ordinances.
It is the responsibility of the Owner to ensure that the recommenda-
tions summarized in this report are carried out in the field opera-
tions and that our recommendations for design of the seawall are
incorporated in the structural plans and grading plans.
This firm does not practice or consult in the field of safety engineering.
We do not direct the Contractor's operations,. and we cannot he re-
sponsible for the safety of personnel other than our own on the site; the
safety of others is the responsibility of the Contractor. The rontractor
should notify the Owner if he considers any of the recommended actions
presented herein to be unsafe.
Proposed Seawall Job No. 85-14016
Carlsbad, California Page 5
LIMITATIONS
Our conclusions and recommendations have been based on all available
data obtained from our field investigation and laboratory analysis, as well
as our experience with the soils and formational materials located in the
City of Carlsbad. Of necessity, we must assume a certain degree of
continuity between exploratory excavations and/or natural exposures. It
Is, therefore, necessary that all observations, conclusions, and
recommendations be verified at the time grading operations begin or when
footing excavations are placed. In the event discrepancies are noted,
additional recommendations may be Issued, if required.
The work performed and recommendations presented herein are the result
of an investigation and analysis which meets the contemporary standard
of care in our profession. No other warranty is expressed or implied.
This report should he considered valid for a period of three (3) years,
and is subject to review by our firm following that time.
The firm of Geotechnical Exploration, Inc. shall not he held responsible
for changes to the physical condition of the property, such as addition of
fill soils or changing drainage patterns, which occur subsequent to
issuance of this report.
Once again, should any questions arise concerning this report, please
feel free to contact our office. Reference to our Job No. 85-4016 will help
to expedite a reply to your inquiries.

GENERAL EARTHWORK SPECIFICATIONS
General
The objective of these specifications is to properly establish procedures
for the clearing and preparation of the existing natural ground or
properly compacted fill to receive new fill; for the selection of the fill
material; and for the fill compaction and testing methods to be used.
Scope of Work
The earthwork Includes all the activities and resources provided by the
contractor to construct In a good workmanlike manner all the grades of
the filled areas shown in the plans. The major Items of work covered in
this section include all clearing and grubbing, removing and disposing of
materials, preparing areas to be filled,, compacting of fill, compacting of
backfills, subdraln Installations, and all other work necessary to
complete the grading of the filled areas.
Site Visit and Site Investiciatlon
The contractor shall visit the site and carefully study It and make
all Inspections necessary In order to determine the full extent of the
work required to complete all grading In conformance with the
drawings and specifications. The contractor shall satisfy himself as
to the nature, location and extent of the work; conditions, the
conformation and condition of the existing ground surface; and the
type of equipment, labor, and facilities needed prior to and during
prosecution of the work. The contractor shall satisfy himself as to
the character, quality and quantity of surface and subsurface
materials or obstacles to be encountered. Any inaccuracies or
discrepancies between the actual field conditions and the drawings,
or between the drawings and specifications, must be brought to the
engineer's attention in order to clarify the exact nature of the work
to be performed.
A soils investigation report has been prepared for this project by
and it is available for review and should be used as a reference to
the surface and subsurface soil and bedrock conditions on this
project. Any recommendations made in the report of the soil
Investigation or subsequent reports shall become an addendum to
these specifications.
Authority of the Soils Engineer and Engineering Geologist
The soils engineer shall be the owner's representative to observe and
test the construction of fills. Excavation and the placing of fill shall be
under the observation of the soils engineer or his/her representative,
and he/she shall give a written opinion regarding conformance with the
specifications upon completion of grading. The soils engineer shall have
the authority to cause the removal and replacement of porous topsoils,
uncompacted or improperly compacted fills, disturbed bedrock materials
and soft alluvium, and shall have the authority to approve or reject
materials proposed for use in the compacted fill areas.
The soil engineer shall have, in conjunction with the engineering
geologist, the authority to approve the preparation of natural ground and
toe-of-fill benches to receive fill material. The engineering geologist
shall have the authority to determine the stability of the existing or
proposed slopes and to determine the necessity of remedial measures. If
any unstable condition Is being created by cutting or filling, the
engineering geologist and/or soil engineer shall advise the contractor and
owner immediately and prohibit grading in the affected area until such
time as corrective measures are taken.
The owner shall decide all questions regarding: (1) the Interpretation of
the drawings and specifications, (2) the acceptable fulfillment of the
contract on the part of the contractor, and (3) the matter of
compensation.
Clearing and Grubbing
Clearing and grubbing shall consist of the removal from all areas to
be graded of all surface trash, abandoned Improvements, paving,
culverts, pipe, and vegetation (including -- but not limited to --
heavy weed growth, trees, stumps, logs and roots larger than 1-inch
In diameter).
All organic and inorganic materials resulting from the clearing and
grubbing operations shall be collected, piled and disposed of by the
contractor to give the cleared areas a neat and finished appearance.
Burning of combustible materials on-site shall not be permitted
unless allowed by local regulations and at such times and in such a
manner to prevent the fire from spreading to areas adjoining the
property or cleared area.
It is understood that minor amounts of organic materials may remain
In the fill soils due to the near impossibility of complete removal.
The amount remaining, however, must be considered negligible and in
no case can be allowed to occur In concentrations or total quantities
sufficient to contribute to settlement upon decomposition.
Preparation of Areas to be Filled
After clearing and grubbing, all uncompacted or improperly
compacted fills, soft or loose soils, or unsuitable materials, shall be
removed to expose competent natural ground, undisturbed bedrock,
or properly compacted fill as indicated In the soils investigation
report or by our field representative. Where the unsuitable
materials are exposed in final graded areas, they shall be removed
and replaced as compacted fill.
The ground surface exposed after removal of unsuitable soils shall
be scarified to a depth of at least 6 Inches, brought to the specified
moisture content, and then the scarified ground compacted to at
least the specified density. Where undisturbed bedrock Is exposed
at the surface, scarification and recompaction shall not be required.
All areas to receive compacted fill, including all removal areas and
toe-of-fill benches, shall be observed and approved by the soil
engineer and/or engineering geologist prior to placing compacted fill.
£4. Where fills are made on hillsides or exposed slope areas with
gradients greater than 20 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 elevation of the toe stake
placed at the bottom of the design slope. The engineer shall
determine the width and frequency of all succeeding benches which
will vary with the soil conditions and the steepness of the slope.
Ground slopes flatter than 20 percent (5.0:1.0) shall be benched
when considered necessary by the soils engineer.
Fill and Backfill Material
Unless otherwise specified, the on-site material obtained from the project
excavations may be used as fill or backfill, provided that all organic
material, rubbish, debris, and other objectionable material contained
therein is first removed. In the event that expansive materials are
encountered during foundation excavations within 3 feet of finished grade
and they have not been properly processed, they shall be entirely
removed or thoroughly mixed with good, granular material before
Incorporating them in fills. No footing shall be allowed to bear on soils
which, In the opinion of the soils engineer, are detrimentally expansive
-- unless designed for this clayey condition.
11
However, rocks, boulders, broken portland cement concrete, and
bituminous type pavement obtained from the project excavations may be
permitted in the backfill or fill with the following limitations:
The maximum dimension of any piece used in the top 10 feet shall be
no larger than 6 inches.
Clods or hard lumps of earth of 6 inches or in greatest dimension
shall be broken up before compacting the material in fill.
if the fill material originating from the project excavation contains
large rocks, boulders, or hard lumps that cannot be broken readily,
pieces over 6 inches in diameter to 2 feet in maximum dimension may
be used in fills below final subgrade if all pieces are placed in such a
manner (such as windrows) as to eliminate nesting or voids between
them. No rocks over 4 feet will be allowed in the fill.
Pieces larger than 6 Inches shall not be placed within 12 inches of
any structure.
S. Pieces larger than 3 Inches shall not be placed within 12 inches of
the subgrade for paving.
Rockfills containing less than 40 percent of soil passing 3/4-inch
sieve may be permitted in designated areas. Specific recommen-
dations shall be made by the soils engineer and be subject to
approval by the city engineer.
Continuous observation by the soils engineer is required during rock
placement.
Special and/or additional recommendations may be provided In
writing by the soils engineer to modify, clarify or amplify these
specifications.
During grading operations, soil types other than those analyzed in
the soil investigation report may be encountered by the contractor.
The soils engineer shall be consulted to evaluate the suitability of
these soils as fill materials.
Placina and compacting Fill Material
1. After preparing the areas to be filled, the approved fill material
shall be placed in approximately horizontal layers, with lift
thickness compatible to the material being placed and the type of
equipment being used. Unless otherwise approved by the soils
engineer, each layer spread for compaction shall not exceed 8 inches
of loose thickness. Adequate drainage of the fill shall be provided
at all times during the construction period.
AMO
When the moisture content of the fill material is below that specified
by the engineer, water shall be added to it until the moisture
content Is as specified.
When the moisture content of the fill material Is above that specified
by the engineer, resulting In inadequate compaction or unstable fill,
the fill material shall be aerated by blading and scarifying or other
satisfactory methods until the moisture content is as specified.
After each layer has been placed, mixed and spread evenly, it shall
be thoroughly compacted to not less than the density set forth in the
specifications. Compaction shall be accomplished with sheepsfoot
rollers, multiple-wheel pneumatic-tired rollers or other approved
types of acceptable compaction equipment. Equipment shall be of
such design that it will be able to compact the fill to the specified
relative compaction. Compaction shall cover the entire fill area, and
the equipment shall make sufficient trips to ensure that the desired
density has been obtained throughout the entire fill. At locations
where it would be impractical due to inaccessibility of rolling
compacting equipment, fill layers shall be compacted to the specified
requirements by hand-directed compaction equipment.
When soil types or combination of soil types are encountered which
tend to develop densely-packed surfaces as a result of spreading or
compacting operations, the surface of each layer of fill shall be
sufficiently roughened after compaction to enure bond to the
succeeding layer.
Unless otherwise specified, fill slopes shall not be steeper than 2.0
horizontal to 1.0 vertical. In general, fill slopes shall be finished in
conformance with the lines and grades shown on the plans. The
surface of fill slopes shall be overfilled to a distance from finished
slopes such that it will allow compaction equipment to operate freely
within the zone of the finished slope, and then cut back to the
finished grade to expose the compacted core. Alternate compaction
procedures Include the backrolllng of slopes with sheepsfoot rollers
In increments of 3 to 5 feet in elevation gain. Alternate methods may
be used by the contractor but they shall be evaluated for approval
by the soils engineer.
Unless otherwise specified, all allowed expansive fill material shall
be compacted to a moisture content of approximately 2 to 4 percent
above the optimum moisture content. Nonexpansive fill shall be
compacted at near optimum moisture content. All fill shall be
compacted, unless otherwise specified, to a relative compaction not
less than 95 percent for fill in the upper 12 inches of subgrades
under areas to be paved with apshalt concrete or portland concrete,
HMO
6
and not less than 90 percent for other fill. The relative compaction
Is the ratio of the dry unit weight of the compacted fill to the
laboratory maximum dry unit weight of a sample of the same soil,
obtained in accordance with A.S.T.M. D-1557 test method.
8. The observation and periodic testing by the soils engineer is
Intended to provide the contractor with an ongoing measure of the
quality of the fill compaction operation. it Is the responsibility of
the grading contractor to utilize this Information to establish the
degrees of compactive effort required on the project. More
Importantly, it is the responsibility of the grading contractor to
ensure that proper compactive effort is applied at all times during
the grading operation, including during the absence of soils
engineering representatives.
Trench Backfill
Trench excavations which extend under graded lots, paved areas,
areas under the influence of structural loading, in slopes or close to
slope areas, shall be backfilled under the observations and testing
of the soils engineer. All trenches not failing within the afore-
mentioned locations shall be backfilled in accordance with the City
or County regulating agency specifications.
Unless otherwise specified, the minimum degree of compaction shall
be 90 percent of the laboratory maximum dry density.
Any soft, spongy, unstable, or other similar material encountered in
the trench excavation upon which the bedding material or pipe is to
be placed, shall be removed to a depth recommended by the soils
engineer and replaced with bedding materials suitably densif led.
Bedding material shall first be placed so that the pipe is supported
for the full length of the barrel with full bearing on the bottom
segment. After the needed testing of the pipe Is accomplished, the
bedding shall be completed to at least 1 foot on top of the pipe. The
bedding shall be properly densified before backfill is placed.
Bedding shall consist of granular material with a sand equivalent
less than 30 or other material approved by the engineer.
14 No rocks greater than 6 inches In diameter will be allowed in the
backfill placed between 1 foot above the pipe and 1 foot below
finished subgrade. Rocks greater than 2.5 inches in any dimension
will not be allowed in the backfill placed within 1 foot of pavement
subgrade.
S. Material for mechanically compacted backfill shall be placed in lifts
of horizontal layers and properly moistened prior to compaction. In
addition, the layers shall have a thickness compatible with the
7
material being placed and the type of equipment being used. Each
layer shall be evenly spread, moistened or dried, and then tamped or
roiled until the specified relative compaction has been attained.
Backfill shall be mechanically compacted by means of tamping rollers,
sheepsfoot rollers, pneumatic tire rollers, vibratory rollers, or
other mechanical tampers. Impact-type pavement breakers
(stompers) will not be permitted over clay, asbestos cement,
plastic, cast iron, or nonreinforced concrete pipe. Permission to
use specific compaction equipment shall not be construed as
guaranteeing or implying that the use of such equipment will not
result In damage to adjacent ground, existing improvements, or
Improvements Installed under the contract. The contractor shall
make his/her own determination in this regard.
Jetting shall not be permitted as a compaction method unless the soils
engineer allows it in writing.
B. Clean granular material shall not be used as backfill or bedding In
trenches located in slope areas or within a distance of 10 feet of the
top of slopes unless provisions are made for a drainage system to
mitigate the potential buildup of seepage forces into the slope mass.
Observations and Testin
The soils engineers or their representatives shall sufficiently
observe and test the grading operations so that he/she can state
his/her opinion as to whether or not the fill was constructed in
accordance with the specifications.
The soils engineers or their representatives shall take sufficient
density tests during the placement of compacted fill. The contractor
should assist the soils engineer and/or his/her representative by
digging test pits for removal determinations and/or for testing
compacted fill. In addition, the contractor should cooperate with
the soils engineer by removing or shutting down equipment from the
area being tested.
Fill shall be tested for compliance with the recommended relative
compaction and moisture conditions. Field density testing should be
performed by using approved methods by A.S.T.M., such as
A.S.T.M. D1556, D2922, and/or D2937. Tests to determine density
of compacted fill should be provided on the basis of not less than one
test for each 2-foot vertical lift of the fill, but not less than one
test for each 1,000 cubic yards of fill placed. Actual test intervals
may vary as field conditions dictate. In fill slopes, approximately
8
half of the tests shall be made at the final fill slope, except that not
more than one test needs to be made for each 50 horizontal feet of
slope In each 2-foot vertical lift. Actual test intervals may vary as
field conditions dictate.
4. Fill found not to be conformance with the grading recommendations
should be removed or otherwise handled as recommended by the soils
engineer.
Site Protection
It shall be the grading contractor's obligation to take all measures deemed
necessary during grading to maintain adequate safety measures and
working conditions, and to provide erosion control devices for the
protection of excavated areas, slope areas, finished work on the site and
adjoining properties, from storm damage and floor hazard originating on
the project. it shall be the contractor's responsibility to maintain slopes
In their as-graded form until all slopes are In satisfactory compliance with
the job specifications, all berms and benches have been properly
constructed, and all associated drainage devices have been installed and
meet the requirements of the specifications.
All observations and testing services and approvals given by the soil
engineer and/or geologist shall not relieve the contractor of his/her
responsibilities of performing the work in accordance with these
specifications.
After grading is completed and the soils engineer has finished his/her
observations and/or testing of the work, no further excavation or filling
shall be done except under his/her observations.
Adverse Weather Conditions
Precautions shall be taken by the contractor during the performance
of site clearing, excavations and grading to protect the work site
from flooding, ponding or inundation by poor or Improper surface
drainage. Temporary provisions shall be made during the rainy
season to adequately direct surface drainage away from and off the
work site. Where low areas cannot be avoided, pumps should be
kept on hand to continually remove water during periods of rainfall.
During periods of rainfall, plastic sheeting shall be kept reasonably
accessible to prevent unprotected slopes from becoming saturated.
Where necessary during periods of rainfall, the contractor shall
Install checkdams, desilting basins, rip-rap, sand bags, or other
devices or methods necessary to controlerosion and provide safe
conditions.
9
During periods of rainfall, the soils engineer should be kept
Informed by the contractor as to the nature of remedial or preven-
tative work being perofrmed (e.g. pumping, placement of sand bags
or plastic sheeting, other labor, dozing, etc.).
Following periods of rainfall, the contractor shall contact the soils
engineer and arrange a walk-over of the site In order to visually
assess rain-related damage. The soils engineer may also recommend
excavations and testing in order to aid in his assessments. At the
request of the soils engineer, the contractor shall make excavations
In order to evaluate the extent of rain-related damage.
S. Rain-related damage shall be considered to include, but may not be
limited to, erosion, silting, saturation, swelling, structural
distress, and other adverse conditions Identified by the soils
engineer. Soil adversely affected shall be classified as Unsuitable
Materials and shall be subject to overexcavation and replacement
with compacted fill or other remedial grading as recommended by the
soils engineer.
Relatively level areas, where saturated soils and/or erosion gullies
exist to depths of greater than 1.0 foot, shall be overexcavated to
unaffected, competent material. Where less than 1.0 foot in depth,
unsuitable materials may be processed in place to achieve
near-optimum moisture conditions, then thoroughly recompacted In
accordance with the applicable specifications, if the desired results
are not achieved, the affected materials shall be overexcavated, then
replaced in accordance with the applicable specifications.
In slope areas, where saturated soil and/or erosion gullies exist to
depths of greater than 1.0 foot, they shall be overexcavated and
replaced as compacted fill in accordance with the applicable specifi-
cations. Where affected materials exist to depths of 1.0 foot or less
below proposed finished grade, remedial grading by moisture condi-
tioning in place, followed by thorough recmpaction in accordance
with the applicable grading guidelines In accordance with the
applicable grading guidelines herein may be attempted. if materials
shall be overexcavated and replaced as compacted fill In accordance
with teh slope repair recommendations herein. As field conditions
dictate, other slope repair procedures may be recommended by the
soils engineer.

Dear Mr. Burford:
In accordance with your request, Geotechnical Exploration, Inc. has
performed an investigation of the surface and subsurface soil conditions
at the location of the subject proposed residential structure. The field
work was performed on May 30, 1985 by our Field Engineer.
It is our understanding that the site is being developed to receive a
multi-unit residential complex. The structure is to be a maximum of four
stories in height and will be constructed of standard-type building materi-
als, utilizing conventional, continuous foundations or spread footings.
Our investigation revealed the site to be overlain with up to 2 feet of
dense fill soils and terrace deposits. These dense soils are underlain by
dense, sandy, natural-ground materials.
In our opinion, If the conclusions and recommendations presented in this
report are Implemented during site preparation, the site will be suited for
the proposed development. The work performed and recommendations
presented in this report are the result of an Investigation and analysis
which meets the contemporary standard of care In our profession. No
other warranty is expressed or implied.
This opportunity to be of service is sincerely appreciated. Should you
have any questions concerning the following report, please do not
hesitate to contact us. Reference to our Job No. 85-4016 will expedite

JOB NO. 85-4016
The following •report presents the findings and recommendations of
Geotechnical Exploration, Inc. for the subject project.
I. SCOPE OF WORK
It is our understanding, based on communications with Mr. Burford, that
the site is intended for the construction of a multi-unit residential
complex. With the above in mind, the Scope of Work is briefly outlined as
follows:
Identify and classify the surface and subsurface soils to depths, in
conformance with the Unified Soil Classification System (refer to
Appendix A).
Determine the allowable bearing pressures for the natural ground
and any soils to be used in compacted fill, based on their
shear-strength and compression characteristics and our experience
with the soils.
Recommend treatment for any expansive soils and/or uncompacted
fill soils that, If left In place and unmodified, could result in future
damages to the proposed structure.
Predict the settlement of the natural-ground soils, as well as any
recompacted fill soils (recompacted to at least 90 percent of Maximum
Dry Density), under the proposed structural loads.
S. Recommend active and passive earth pressures to be utilized in
design of any proposed retaining walls and foundation structures.

II.. SITE DESCRIPTION
The property is legally described as: Lots 19 and 20, Block'"Aw according
to Map #1221 In the City of Carlsbad.
The site, consisting of approximately 6,500 square feet, is located in the
2600 block of Ocean Street adjacent to and north of 2681 in the City of
Carlsbad. The property Is bordered on the west by the Pacific Ocean, on
the east by Ocean Street, and on the north and south by similar
residential units.
There were no existing structures on the site at the time of our
investigation. Vegetation on the site consists primarily of native weeds,
grasses, and a dense growth of ice plant covering the slope down to the
beach.
The property slopes sharply down to the west from a relatively flat area
near Ocean Street, with approximate elevations ranging from 40 feet above
mean sea level (MSL) to 10 feet above MSL.
Ill. FIELD INVESTIGATION
Six test pits were placed on the site, specifically in areas where struc-
tures and Improvements will be located and where representative soil
conditions were expected. The excavations were located Inthe field in
random locations. The excavations were visually inspected and logged by
our Field Engineer, and samples were taken of the predominant soils
throughout the field operation. 1 Test pit logs have been prepared on the
basis of our inspection and the results have been summarized on Figure
No. II. The predominant soils have been classified in conformance with
the Unified Soil Classification System (refer to AppendlxA).

IV. DESCRIPTION OF SOILS
The site, in general, is overlain with a varying thickness of fill soils and
terrace deposits. These fill soils are dense and consist of dark red to
brown, fine to medium sand with slight bits of debris. The terrace
deposits are dense and consist of gray to brown, fine to medium sand.
These soils reach a maximum thickness of up to 2 feet. The site is
underlain by dense, dark red to brown, fine to medium native sands..
V. GROUNDWATER
No groundwater problems were encountered during the course of our field
investigation and we do hot expect significant problems to develop in the
future -- if the property is developed as presently designed. It should
be kept in mind, however, that any required grading operations may
change surface drainage patterns and/or reduce permeabilities due to the
densification of compacted soils. Such changes of surface and subsurface
hydrologic conditions, plus irrigation of landscaping or significant
increases in rainfall, may result in the appearance of minor amounts of
surface or near-surface water at locations where none existed
previously. The damage from such water Is expected to be minor and
cosmetic in nature, If good positive drainage is Implemented at the
completion of construction. Corrective action should be taken on a
site-specific basis if, and when, It becomes necessary.
VI. LABORATORYTESTS AND SOiL.1NFORMATION
Laboratory tests were performed on the disturbed and undisturbed soil
samples in order to determine their physical and mechanical properties
and their ability to support the proposed structure. The following tests
were conducted on the sampled soils:

characteristics and soil conditions to be anticipated during any future
grading operation.
The mechanical analysis was used to aid in the classification of the soils
according to the Unified Soil Classification System.
Based on the above laboratory test data, a thorough visual inspection of
the primary soil types on the project, and our previous experience with
laboratory testing of soils of the same type, our Geotechnical Engineer
has assigned conservative values for friction angle, coefficient of
friction, and cohesion to those soils which will have significant lateral
support or bearing functions on the project. These values are presented
in Figure No. Ill and have been utilized in determining safe bearing
values as well as active and passive earth pressure design criteria for
wall and footing designs.
VII. COPICLUSIONSAND RECOMMNDATIONS
The following conclusions and recommendations are based upon the prac-
tical field investigations conducted by our firm, and resulting laboratory
tests, In conjunction with our knowledge and experience with the soils In
this area of the City of Carlsbad.
A. PreparatiOn of SóiIi.fO Sitâ beveiapMeiit
1. The existing debris and vegetation observed on the site must be
removed prior to the preparation of building pads and/or areas to
receive structural improvements.
Residential Lot Job No. 85-4016
13 June 1985 Page 5
B. Design Parameters for Foundation and Retaining Wails
The maximum safe load-bearing value (at a depth of 12 inches) is at
least 2,000 pounds per square foot. This load-bearing value may be
utilized in the design of continuous foundations and spread footings
when founded a minimum of 12 inches into the firm natural ground or
compacted fill, measured from the lowest adjacent grade at the time
of foundation construction. We recommend that the proposed
four-story structure be founded on at least 18-inch-deep footings.
This load-bearing value may be increased one-third for design loads
that include wind or seismic analysis. If imported soils are required
to bring the site to grade, the imported soils shall be nonexpansive
and shall be obtained from an approved off-site borrow area.
Due to concern for potential erosion of footings along the beach side
by storm surf action and on-site runoff, in addition to our previous
recommendations it is recommended that a continuous perimeter
caisson and grade-beam foundation system be used to underpin the
western wall, and extend 10 feet toward the east. Caissons shall be
embedded a minimum of 10 feet Into the existing formational sands.
The proposed decking area should also be underpinned by similar
caissons embedded a minimum of 10 feet. Such a foundation system
shall be designed by a Structural Engineer using a maximum allowable
bearing value of 3,000 psf.
The soils that occur within 5 feet of the face of any slopes will
possess poor lateral stability. Proposed structures and other
improvements (such as walls, fences, patios, sidewalks, swimming
pool, driveways, asphalt parking, etc.) that are located within 5
feet of the face of slopes could suffer differential movement as a
result of the poor lateral stability of these soils and possible erosion
of slope material.
Residential Lot Job No. 85-4016
13 June 1985 Page 6
Foundations and footings of proposed structures, walls, etc., when
founded 5 feet and farther away from the top of slopes, may be of
standard design in conformance with the recommended load-bearing
value. If the proposed foundations and footings are located closer
than 5 feet inside the top of slopes or on the face of slopes, they
shall be deepened to 1 foot below a line beginning at a point 5 feet
horizontally inside the slopes and projected outward and downward,
parallel to the face of the slope (see Figure No. IV).
Due to numerous reasons, footings and slabs occasionally crack.
Footings. and slabs shall contain at least a nominal amount of
reinforcing steel to reduce the separation of cracks, should they
occur.
14.1 A minimum of steel for continuous footings shall include two No.
4 steel bars continuous, with one bar near the bottom of the
footing and one bar near the top.
4.2 Isolated square footings shall contain a minimum of two No. 4
steel bars, each way, approximately 3 inches above the bottom
of the footing.
4.3 Floor slabs shall be 4 inches nominal thickness and reinforced
with 6 x 6 - 10/10 welded wire mesh placed at mid-height in the
slab. Slabs shall be underlain by a 3-Inch-thick layer of clean
sand (S.E. = 30 or greater) overlying a 6-mil visqueen
membrane. Slab subgrade soil shall be thoroughly moistened
prior to placement of the vapor barrier and pouring of concrete.
It is recommended that all nonstructural concrete slabs (such as
patios, sidewalks, etc.) be founded on at least 4 Inches of compacted
nonexpansive soils.
Residential Lot Job No. 85-4016
13 June 1985 Page 7
We recommend the project Structural Engineer consider isolation
joints and saw-cuts to at least 5/8-inch in. depth in any floor slab
designs. The joints and cuts, if properly placed, should reduce the
potential for and help control floor slab cracking.
Based on our laboratory test results and our experience with the
soil types on the subject site, the near-surface, undisturbed soils
and compacted on-site soils should experience differential settlement
in the magnitude of less than 1/2-inch under a structural load of
2,000 pounds per square foot. Formational sands at the depth of the
recommended caissons (a minimum of 10 feet) should experience
similar settlement under a structural load of 3,000 psf.
All retaining walls shall be founded on firm natural ground or
properly compacted fills, and shall be designed as follows:
The active earth pressure (to be utilized in the design of walls,
etc.) shall be based on an Equivalent Fluid Weight of 32 pounds per
cubic foot (for level backfill only).
In the event that a retaining wall Is surcharged by sloping backfill,
the design active earth pressure shall be based on the appropriate
Equivalent Fluid Weight presented In the following table:
Height of Slope/Height of Wall*
Slope Ratio 0.25 0.50 0.75 1.00 (+)
1.5 43 52 58 60
2.0 35 39 42 44
*To determine design active earth pressures for ratios Intermediate
to those presented, interpolate between the stated values.
Residential Lot Job No. 85-4016
13 June 1985 Pages
In the event that a retaining wall is to be designed for a restrained
condition, a uniform pressure equal to 8xH (eight times the total
height of retained soil, considered in pounds per square foot) shall
be considered as acting everywhere on the back of the wall in
addition to the design Equivalent Fluid Weight.
The passive earth pressure of the encountered natural-ground soils
(to be used for design of building foundations and footings to resist
the lateral forces) shall be based on an Equivalent Fluid Weight of
300 pounds per cubic foot. This passive earth pressure shall only
be considered valid for design if the ground adjacent to the founda-
tion structure is essentially level for .a distance of at least three
times the total depth of the foundation.
A Coefficient of Friction of 0.4 times the dead load may be used
between the bearing soils and concrete wall foundations or structure
foundations and floor slabs. If the coefficient of friction is to be
used in conjunction with passive earth pressures, the coefficient
shall be reduced to 0.35.
C. Slope Design
It is our opinion that permanent slopes at the subject site will be
stable and free from deep-seated failures for the following maximum
slope heights:
Maximum Height of Slope
Slope Ratio Compacted Cut
(Horizontal: Vertical) Fill Ground
1.5:1.0 10
2.0:1.0 10 20
In the event that development of the site necessitates construction
of steep temporary cut slopes Immediately adjacent to existing struc-
Residential Lot Job No. 85-4016
13 June 1985 Page 9
tures, or to property boundaries at which off-site grading permis-
sion has not been granted, either shoring, bracing, or underpinning
may be required to prevent damage to on-site or off-site structures
as a result of construction of the temporary slopes.. This office
should be contacted for additional recommendations pertaining to
such protection of existing structures.
Where not superseded by specific recommendations presented in this
report, trenches, excavations, and temporary slopes at the subject
site shall be constructed in accordance with subparagraph (1)
paragraph (f), of section 1541 of Title 8, Construction Safety
Orders, issued by OSHA.
It is recommended that all compacted fill slopes and natural cut
slopes be planted with an erosion-resistant plant, in conformance
with the requirements of the City of Carlsbad.
D. Site Drainage Considerations
Adequate measures shall be taken to properly finish-grade the site
after the structures and other improvements are in place. Drainage
waters from this site and adjacent properties are to be directed away
from foundations, floor slabs, footings, and slopes, onto the natural
drainage direction for this area or into properly designed and
approved drainage facilities. Proper subsurface and surface drain-
age will help minimize the potential for waters to seek the level of
the bearing soils under the foundations, footings and floor slabs.
Failure to observe this recommendation could result in uplift or
undermining and differential settlement of the structure or other Im-
provements on the site.
In addition, appropriate erosion-control measures shall be taken at
all times during construction to prevent surface runoff waters from
entering footing excavations, ponding on finished building pad or
Residential Lot Job No, 85-4016
13 June 1985 Page 10
pavement areas, or running uncontrolled over the tops of newly
constructed cut or fill slopes. Particular care should be taken to
prevent saturation of any temporary construction slopes.
Proper subdrains shall be installed behind all retaining walls on the
subject project.
Geotechnical Exploration, Inc. will assume no liability for damage to
structures which is attributable to poor drainage.
Planter areas and planter boxes shall be sloped to drain away from
the foundations, footings, and floor slabs. Planter boxes shall be
constructed with a subsurface drain, installed in gravel, with the
direction of subsurface and surface flow away from the foundations,
footings, and floor slabs, to an adequate drainage facility.
VIII. GRADING NOTES
Any required grading operations shall be performed in accordance with
the general requirements of the City of Carlsbad Grading Ordinance,
under the observation of a qualified Soils Engineer or supervised Field
Soils Technician.
18. Geotechnlcal Exploration, Inc. requires that a qualified soils
engineering firm verify the actual soil conditions revealed during
site grading work and footing excavation to be as anticipated In the
"Report of Soil Investigation" for a project. In addition, the
compaction of fill soils placed during site grading work must be
tested by a representative of a qualified soils engineering firm.
In order to minimize any work delays at the subject site during site
development, this firm should be contacted 21 hours prior to any
need for inspection of footing excavations or field density testing of
compacted fill soils. If possible, placement of formwork and steel
ir
Residential Lot Job No. 85-4016
13 June 1985 Page 11
reinforcement in footing excavations should not occur prior to
inspection of the excavations; in the event that our inspection
reveals the need for deepening or re-designing foundation structures
at any locations, any formwork or steel reinforcement in the affected
footing excavation areas would have to be removed prior to correc-
tion of the observed problem (i.e., deepening the footing
excavation, recompacting soil in the bottom of the excavation, etc.).
Any septic tanks, old foundations, subsurface disposal systems,
wells, etc., which might bediscoveréd on the site, shall be removed
and properly backfilled with approved on-site or imported fill soils,
and shall then be compacted to at least 90 percent of Maximum Dry
Density.
Any backfill soils placed in utility trenches or behind retaining walls
which support structures and other improvements (such as patios,
sidewalks, driveways, pavements, etc.), other than landscaping,
shall be compacted to at least 90 percent of Maximum Dry Density.
No Uncontrolled fill soils shall remain on the site after completion of
any future site work (except landscape soils). In the event that
temporary ramps or pads are constructed of uncontrolled fill soils
during a future grading operation, the location and extent of the
loose fill soils shall be noted by the on-site representative of a
qualified soil engineering firm. The loose fill soils shall be removed
and/or recompacted prior to completion of the grading operation.
All contemporary pavement section design methods assume compaction
of the upper 6 Inches of foundation soil (natural ground or compacted
fill) and all base materials to at least 95 percent of Maximum Dry
Density. We therefore recommend that the upper 6 inches of
foundation soils and all base materials beneath street, driveway, and
parking area pavements be compacted to a minimum of 95 percent of
Residential Lot Job No. 85-4016
13 June 1985 Page 12
Maximum Dry Density. This recommendation also applies to the
upper soils in backfilled trenches or behind retaining wails which
support pavement sections.
23. It is the responsibility of the Owner and/or Developer to ensure that
the recommendations summarized in this report are carried out in the
field operations.
This firm does not practice or consult in the field of safety engineering.
We do not direct the Contractor's operations, and we cannot be re-
sponsible for the safety of personnel other than our own on the site; the
safety of others is the responsibility of the Contractor. The Contractor
should notify the Owner if he considers any of the recommended actions
presented herein to be unsafe.
IX. LIMITATIONS
Our conclusions and recommendations have been based on all available
data obtained from our field investigation and laboratory analysis, as
well as our experience with the soils and formational materials located in
this portion of the City of Carlsbad. Of necessity, we must assume a
certain degree of continuity between exploratory excavations and/or
natural exposures. It is, therefore, necessary that all observations,
conclusions, and recommendations be verified at the time grading
operations begin or when footing. excavations are placed. In the event
discrepancies are noted, additional recommendations may be Issued, if
required.
The work performed and recommendations presented herein are the result
of an investigation and analysis which meets the contemporary standard
of care in our profession. No other warranty is expressed or Implied.
This report should be considered valid for a period of three (3) years,
and is subject to review by our firm following that time, if significant

GRADING SPECIFICATIONS
GENERAL
The intent of this item is to properly establish procedures for cleaning and
compacting natural ground, preparing areas to be filled, and placing and compacting
fill material to the grades and slopes as shown on the Grading Plans.
CLEARING
All vegetation, brush and debris shall be removed, piled and burned, or otherwise
disposed of, to give the surface a neat and finished appearance.
COMPACTING NATURAL GROUND
After clearing, the natural ground shall be scarified to a depth of at least 12
inches, watered to optimum requirements and compacted to not less than 90 percent
of maximum dry density, according to A.S.T.M. Test Method D-1557, in a four-inch
diameter, cylindrical mold of 1/30th-cubic-foot volume. Field density tests shall be
taken in the natural ground in accordance with A.S.T.M. Test Method D-1556.
FILL MATERIALS
Materials for the fill shall be approved by the soils engineer and shall be free
from organic matter and other deleterious substances. In the event that expansive
materials are encountered within three feet of finished grade, they shall be entirely
removed or thoroughly mixed with good, granular material before incorporating them In
fills. No footing shall be allowed to bear on soils which, in the opinion of the soils
engineer, are detrimentally expansive -- unless designed for this clayey condition.
PLACING AND COMPACTING FILL MATERIAL
After preparing the areas to be filled, the fill materials shall be placed in layers
not to exceed six Inches in compacted thickness. Each layer shall be watered to opti-
mum requirements and compacted to not less than 90 percent of maximum dry density
in accordance with A.S.T.M. Test Method D-1557. Compaction of the fill shall then
proceed in the specified manner to the grades shown on the approved plans.
When the slope ratio of the original ground is steeper than 5.0 horizontal to 1.0
vertical, the original ground shall be benched. Ground slopes flatter than 5.0
horizontal to 1.0 vertical shall be benched when considered necessary by the soils
engineer. Fill slopes shall be compacted by means of a sheepsfoot roller, or other
suitable equipment. Slope compaction shall be continued until the slopes are stable
but not too dense for planting.
Field density tests shall be taken when considered necessary by the soils
engineer In accordance with. A.S.T.M. Test Method D-1556 and shall be made not
exceeding two feet in vertical height providing each layer Is tested.
FIELD OBSERVATION AND DENSITY TESTING
Observation and testing of the fill shall be made by the representative of
Geotechnical Exploration, Inc. during the grading operation so that it can be
reasonably assumed that the fill was placed In accordance with these specifications.
SEASON LIMITS
No fill material shall be placed, spread or rolled during unfavorable weather
conditions. When the work is Interrupted by heavy rains, the filling operation shall
not be resumed until field tests indicate that the moisture content and density of the
fill are as previously specified.
