RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2012-028 approving Selection Criteria and Performance Specifications
and Authorizing Design Builder Request for Proposals for Alga Norte Community Park Phase I, Project
Nos. 3837 and 3925.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
The proposed Alga Norte Community Park Phase I, Project ("ANCP Project") is located at the northwest
corner of Poinsettia Lane and Alicante Road. On September 27, 2011, the City Council approved
design build procurement method (1) pursuant to Section 3.28.085 F. ofthe Carlsbad IVlunicipal Code
(CMC). This method allows for selection of a design build firm to perform the necessary plan updates
and to construct the ANCP Project.
In accordance with Section 3.28.085 F.I., City Council, as the awarding authority, shall approve the
performance, specifications, and criteria to be set forth in the Design Builder Request for Proposals.
Pursuant to the CMC, "these criteria may include, but not be limited to, items such as proposed design
approach, initial and/or life cycle costs, project features, financing, quality, capacity, schedule, and
operational and functional performance ofthe facility."
On October 14, 2011, City staff issued a Prequalification Request for Proposal to prequalify design
builder firms to be placed on a list of prequalified design builder firms for use on the ANCP Project. The
City received prequalification proposals from fifteen firms. Five of the fifteen firms were disqualified from
the selection process for failure to meet one or more minimum selection criteria. A review team
consisting of four City staff members scored the ten remaining responsive proposals and selected five
firms to be placed on the list of prequalified firms eligible to bid on the ANCP Project. The five firms
selected by the staff committee for prequalification are TB Penick & Sons Inc., C.W. Driver, Rudolf and
Sletten Inc., Edge Development Inc., and Balfour Beatty Inc.
The ANCP Project Design Builder Request for Proposals (attached as Exhibit 3) details the selection
criteria that will be used to select the successful design builder. The selection criteria are based upon a
"best value" scoring of the proposals to be submitted by the prequalified firms. The proposal submittal
process will be a three step process, including a Technical Proposal submittal, an Oral Presentation and
a Price Proposal submittal. The table on the next page summarizes the criterion and scoring that will be
used to select the "best value" responsive and responsible design builder firm. For a more detailed
discussion of the selection criteria, see the Proposal Evaluation and Scoring Process section of the
ANCP Project Design Builder Request for Proposals.

Because the Project was previously authorized for bid in 2007, the City has in place a complete set of
plans and specifications that will serve as the basis of the performance specifications for the ANCP
Project. A design narrative was prepared by staff and the consulting firm of Wimmer, Yamada and
Caughey that specifies the updates and other design modifications required to bring the ANCP Project
plans and specifications up to date. These documents taken together with various other project reports,
design criteria and specification documents contained in the ANCP Project Design Builder Request for
Proposals complete the performance specifications for the ANCP Project.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
On March 1, 2006, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution Nos. 6039 and 6040, adopting a
Negative Declaration (ND) and Conditional Use Permit No. 04-08, respectively for the ANCP Project.
Furthermore, pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, the selection criteria and Request for
Proposal does not constitute a "project" within the meaning of CEQA in that it has no potential to cause
either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical
change in the environment, and therefore does not require environmental review.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Council has previously appropriated General Capital Construction funds and Public Facilities Fee
funds for the ANCP Project. There are sufficient remaining appropriations to complete the ANCP
Project at this time. No further appropriation is necessary. Costs for the ANCP Project are estimated in
Table 1 below.

the City as a team, and successfully meet the requirements of this project.
The City desires to select a responsive, responsible and highly qualified Proposer to
deliver a design build project that fully meets the City's established needs and
expectations with respect to the budget, quality, functionality, flexibility, and operational
design standards. The design build approach is intended to allow designers and
contractors to work together to address each project requirement and to deliver an
effective and comprehensive project that meets all the established requirements.
1.2 Project Description
The City of Carlsbad is located about 35 miles north of the City of San Diego on the
Southern California coast, where a great climate, beautiful beaches, lagoons, and
abundant natural open space, combine with world class resorts, family attractions, well-
planned neighborhoods, a diverse business sector and a charming village atmosphere
combine to create the ideal California experience. Covering nearly 42-square miles, the
City of Carlsbad is approaching build out and is currently home to nearly 107,000
residents.
Alga Norte Community Park will be located in the southeast part of the City and when
completed will be the second-largest park in the City's parks system. This Project consists of
a 32.1 acre park, including an aquatics center (with a 25 meter pool, a 56 meter
Olympic/Competition pool, a spa and a play pool), administrative offices, pool equipment
building, community center, a skate park, a dog park, 3 ball fields, basketball courts, parking,
large playground, picnic areas, maintenance building and general landscaping.
Most of the rough grading and all of the mainline storm drainage work for this Project has
been completed and is not a part of this Project. As-built drawings of this work shall be
provided for reference only.

The Estimate of Probable Cost (EPC) for the project has been established by the City of
Carlsbad as $32,000,000.00.
1.5 Basis of Selection and Contract A ward
Selection shall be based upon a "best value" determination, which is calculated as described

services to construct the Project. The City has the right to waive nonmaterial irregularities in
a proposal.
The Carlsbad City Council will make the final determination regarding selection of the best
value proposal and award the Design Build Contract to the successful Proposer. Shortly
thereafter, the City Contract Administrator will send standard form Notice of Selection to the
successful Proposer including the original contract documents requiring signature. Within
20 days after receipt of the Notice of Selection as the successful Proposer, Proposer shall
submit the following items:
. 1 One (1) original of the Agreement signed by Design Build Entity, properly notarized.
.2 One (1) original of the Payment Bond required under Article 11 of the General
Conditions, properly notarized.
.3 One (1) original of the Performance Bond required under Article 11 of the General
Conditions, properly notarized.
.4 Original Certificates of Insurance on the form provided by the City required under
Article 11 of the General Conditions.
.5 If Proposer wishes to utilize securities in lieu of retention or deposit retention into
escrow beginning with the initial Application for Payment, (1) Selection of Retention
Options accompanied by (3) completed Escrow Agreements for Deposit of Securities
in Lieu of Retention and Deposit of Retention (refer to Article 9.5 of the General
Conditions).
If all submitted items are in compliance with the requirements of the Request for Proposal
Documents, the City will acknowledge final award of the Contract by returning a fully
executed copy of the Agreement to Design Build Entity.
The City may reject the successful Proposer if the Proposer: (1) withdraws its proposal;
(2) fails or refuses to sign all of the items required by the proposal documents within 20
days after receipt of Notice of Selection; or (3) is not financially or otheoA/ise qualified to
perform the Contract. In such case, the City will select the next best value proposal until
all proposals are exhausted or reject all proposals.
1.6 Proposal Submittal Process
In an effort to reduce the Project Timeline, the City bifurcated the Proposal submittal
requirement and is requiring separate submittals of a Technical and Price Proposal to
be submitted on separate days. The Technical Submittal is to be submitted first,
followed by an oral presentation by the Proposer and then followed by submittal of the
Price Proposal. The bifurcated submittal process allows the Proposer additional time to
work with their respective subcontractors to prepare the Price Proposal during the time
the City reviews the Technical Proposal and conduct the interviews.
For a Proposal to be considered responsive, the Proposer must submit both the
Technical Proposal and Price Proposal to the City by their respective Deadlines,
completed in the format and with the all content required by this Request for Proposal
and, make the oral presentation as required by this Request for Proposal.
1-31-11 Page 5 of 13 Request for Proposal

mechanical, structural, electrical, civil, landscape, plumbing drawings and specifications;
interdisciplinary construction coordination drawings (also defined as "Shop Drawings");
as well as appropriate calculations including the mechanical, plumbing, structural, and
electrical systems necessary to complete the project. Additionally, the Design Build
Entity, including its consultants, sub-consultants, subcontractors and/or suppliers
perform Work required to construct the project as described and specified in the Request

As the existing design is permitted for construction, any and all changes to the design
must not trigger a new permit evaluation, unless such change is in the interest of the City.
Portions of the overall design may require deferred permit submittals and are not subject
to these criteria. All Construction Drawings and Shop Drawings prepared by Design Build
Entity for deferred submittals are to be complete and in sufficient detail for a
comprehensive review by the City including, the City Fire Marshal, and the City's plan
review service staff or consultants. The drawings and engineering calculations shall
include, but not be limited to: utility plans and profiles, plans, elevations, sections,
schedules and details. These drawings shall comprehensively illustrate the complete and
coordinated design of the architectural, mechanical, plumbing, and electrical systems.
Complete designs and drawings will also be required for security, solar thermal system,
fire alarm, fire sprinkler systems, trusses, storefront. County Health permits, and any other
component of the design that may require permits or additional development. The Design

City to prepare all Construction Drawings and shop drawings to the extent required.
The Price Proposal must provide for the complete design and construction of the project,
including any temporary or interim facilities required to maintain essential existing
functions in operation throughout the construction period.
Details of the design services and construction responsibilities are described in greater
detail in the Request for Proposal Documents.

The City anticipates that the selected Design Build Team will be able to commence
construction on the Work shortly after Contract award. Excavation work, foundations, core
and shell work can commence construction prior to completion of Phase 2 Project Design.
Since the Project has a permit to start construction, the City assumes that the Design Build
Team can accelerate the construction phasing to create an optimum completion date.

PROPOSAL EVALUATION AND SCORING PROCESS
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The City intends to evaluate Proposals and award a Contract solely on the basis of the infornnation
provided in the Proposal without subsequent negotiation with Proposers. Therefore, the Proposer's
Technical and Price Proposal should contain Proposer's best and final terms from a price and
technical standpoint. The Proposal will consist of a Technical Proposal, Price Proposal and Oral
Presentation, each a component of the Proposal, as described in the Request for Proposal. The
City will evaluate and score the Proposal components as described below.
All responsive Proposals will be evaluated to determine the one that provides the City with the "best
value", as determined by the City. The Proposer that achieves the highest overall score will be
selected as the apparent best value responsive and responsible Proposer.
2.0 PROPOSAL EVALUATION
The City Proposal Evaluation Committee shall be comprised of selected City staff and City retained
consultants, as selected by the City Representative. Each Proposal will be evaluated in accordance
with the provisions of this Section as follows:
.1 Responsiveness. A Proposal shall be considered responsive only if all three Proposal
components, Technical Proposal, Price Proposal and Oral Presentation, are found by the
City Evaluation Committee to be responsive to the requirements of the Request for
Proposal Documents
.2 Scoring based on Proposal. Proposals shall be scored based solely upon information
provided by Proposer in the Proposal documents and as presented at the Oral
Presentation. The scores from the previous pre-qualification evaluation will not be carried
forward into the Proposal evaluation.
.3 Technical Proposal and Oral Interview Scoring Process. Each member of the City
Proposal Evaluation Committee (individually an "Evaluator") shall separately score the
various components of the Technical Proposal and Oral Interview. Each Evaluator's score
shall be the sum of the scoring for the individual I components of the Technical Proposal
and Oral Presentation. Average scores for each separate Technical Proposal component
will be determined by summing the respective Technical Proposal and Oral Interview
component scores of each Committee Evaluator and dividing by the number of Evaluators
scoring each component. The overall Technical Proposal and Oral Interview score will
be determined by summing the averaged component scores. The following Scoring
Table defines the maximum scores for each section of the various Proposal components:

Technical Proposal Scoring. The Technical Proposal will be scored based upon each
evaluator's judgment regarding the Proposer's overall ability to design and build a project
meeting the City's technical performance specifications, as described in the Request for
Proposal and the Contract Documents, and the Design Builder's ability to prosecute
construction of the Project to successful conclusion within the requirements and schedule
as presented in the Request for Proposal Documents. Each Evaluator will take into
consideration the Proposer's specific technical and staffing capabilities to prosecute the
design and construction inclucling the Proposer's proposed Construction Management
Plan, Key Personnel, Project Staffing Matrix and Schedule, proposed design changes and
substitutions (both voluntary and non-voluntary), and all clarifications, exceptions and
exclusions to the Request for Proposal and Contract Documents.
1-31-12 Page 2 of 3 Proposal Evaluation and Scoring Process
% r-^Am CD Af^ Al9^ 'Vo'^e Community Park
V_AKLDDAU Contract No. 3837A
.5 Oral Presentation Scoring. Oral Presentations will be scored on how well the Proposer
and the Proposer's Team describe the most important aspects of their proposals, answer
questions and provide clarification requested by the City Proposal Evaluation Committee.
Points may be deducted if one or more of the required Proposer participants fail to attend
the Oral Presentation.
.6 Total Proposal Value Scoring. First, the Price Proposal (Total Project Cost included in
4.0 of the Price Proposal Form) will be adjusted by City staff to include 30 days of
compensable delays (5.0 from the Price Proposal Form) and 40 hours for each resource's
hourly rate provided in the Design Professional Rate Schedule Form. This value will
represent the Total Adjusted Proposal Value.
A formulaic scoring of the Total Adjusted Proposal Value shall be conducted (reference
example below) to determine the score for the Total Adjusted Proposal Value The City
Representative will calculate the formula scoring that will be added to the Total Adjusted
Proposal score for each Proposer, as follows:
The Proposer with the lowest Total Adjusted Proposal Value will be awarded the maximum
25 point value. Each of the other Proposer's Total Adjusted Project Cost amounts will be
scored using the following formula:
Score = 35-(0.75 xP)
Where P = (Proposer's Total Adjusted Proposal Value - Lowest Total Adjusted Proposal
Value / Lowest Total Adjusted Proposal Value X 100
Scores will be rounded to the nearest tenth of a point
A minimum score is 0, no negative scores will be used.
As an example, Proposer A has a Total Adjusted Proposal Value of $32,000,000
Proposer B has a Total Adjusted Proposal Value of $34,250,000
Proposer A gets a Price Proposal (Total Proposal Value) score of 35 points
Proposer B gets a Price Proposal (Total Proposal Value) score of 29.7

SCOPE OF WORK
Alga Norte Connmunity Park will be located in the southeast part of the city, and when
completed will be the second-largest park in the city's park system. This project consists of
an 32.1 acre park, including an aquatics center (with a 25 meter pool, a 50 meter pool a
spa and a play pool), a skate park, a dog park, 3 ball fields, basketball courts, parking,
large playground, picnic areas, restrooms with toilet facilities, site furnishings, site lighting,
utilities and general landscaping.
Rough grading and mainline storm drainage work for this project have been completed and
are not a part of this project. However portions of drainage work and rough grading already
completed will require additional work by the selected design build team. This information
can be found in the Constructability Review in the Information Provided by the City
tab.
Access to the as-built plans of the completed rough grading work will be provided to the
pre-qualified Design/Build Teams.
The plans and specifications for this project were substantially complete in 2008 and
a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) and Building Permit for construction was previously
issued and is on file from the City of Carlsbad. The city has allowed the building CUP
and Building Permit to remain active, even though certain codes and rules have
changed. All other required permits, except the CUP and Building Permit, must be re-
issued. The Design Build Team will be responsible for the update and any additional
securing of necessary permits to construct the park. The project design will need to
be revised to comply with any new Federal or Local Laws that are not exempted by
the city's CUP and Building Permit for construction. The aquatic pool complex
drawings are current and have updated required permits for construction and
operation. The 2008 plan reference set represents the city's intent. The pre-qualified
design build teams will be allowed to submit substitutions, changes, improvements,
allowances, clarifications and assumptions during the bidding process only.
Requests for changes to the design must be submitted in writing and shown in
graphic form. No substitutions or design changes will be allowed after selection of
the Design Builder unless the city approves the substitution/change.
The following Deferred Submittals will require additional city review and approval:
Trusses
Fire Protection System
Fire Alarm System
Fire Suppression System (for kitchen exhaust hoods)
Storefront System
Solar Hot Water Heating System
Security System (including access card key system)

Subject: Alga Norte Park - Review of Plans and Specifications.
Mr. McGarry:
Attached please find Dudek's review of the 27 June 2008 set of plans and specifications.
In general, Dudek's review consisted of the following:
1. Reviewed and coordinated the 27 June 2008 civil plans (sheets 4 through 30) and
specifications with the "as-built" mass grading plans and soils report.
2. Reviewed and compared Dudek's 2007 constructability review comments with the 27
June 2008 set of plans and specifications and noted the items that were not addre.ssed.
Any new items found during this effort were also noted.
3. Provided comments per specific discipline i.e. grading/drainage, architecture, electrical,
structural, mechanical, plumbing, aquatics, .skate park, and landscaping (see specific
sections).
Please note that any errors and omissions will now be the responsibility of the new design team
as a part of the Design-Build Contractor, and our review did not review for these issues. The D-
B team is responvSible for the entire design and should check the documents for those types of
issues and not rely on the City to give them this information. Our review shall be provided "for
reference only". Our review primarily focused on the information and potential issues the
potential D-B teams need to consider when putting together their propo.sals; and that our review
is limited to that.

removal and replacement, as necessary) for flatwork and pavement has been
completed, the exposed surface shall be scarified to a depth of at least 8 inches, brought
to optimum moisture content, and rolled with heavy compaction equipment to obtain ^fir'j—
percent of maximum dry density.
F. Excavation Subgrade and Below Subgrade:
1. Excavate and shape subgrade to line, grade, and cross-section shown on
Drawings. Following receipt of written acceptance for the subgrade by the
ENGINEER, compact the subgrade with approved equipment until the top 12
inches is compacted to 95 percent of maximum dry density at optimum moisture
content as determined by ASTM D 1557. Remove all soft, loose, or othenwise
unsuitable material and replace with suitable sandy material. The finished
subgrade shall be firm, hard and unyielding. The subgrade shall be considered to
extend over the full width of the base course. Compaction shall extend 18 inches
beyond the edge of paving, curb, or form.
2. Where the ENGINEER deems subgrade material to be unsatisfactory, excavation
below subgrade will be required to such depths as necessary to remove the
unsatisfactory material. Excavation below grade shall be of the same
classification as that above it provided it is removed in the same operation as the
normal excavation. Special equipment or hand excavation may be required
because of the presence of shallow utilities or other unforeseen conditions.
G. Notification of ENGINEER; The CONTRACTOR shall notify the ENGINEER at least
2 working days in advance of completion of any structure excavation and shall allow the

outside diameter of the pipe plus 18 inches.
B. Trench Bottom: Except when pipe bedding is required, the bottom of the trench shall be
excavated uniformly to the grade of the bottom of the pipe. The trench bottom shall be
given a final trim, using a string line for establishing grade, such that each pipe section
when first laid will be continually in contact with the ground along the extreme bottom of
the pipe. Rounding out the trench to form a cradle for the pipe will not be allowed.
C. Open Trench: the maximum amount of open trench permitted in any one location shall
be 500 feet, or the length necessary to accommodate the amount of pipe installed in a
single day, whichever is greater. All trenches shall be fully backfilled at the end of each
day or, in lieu thereof, shall be covered by heavy steel plates adequately braced and
capable of supporting vehicular traffic in those locations where it is impractical to backfill
at the end of each day. The above requirements for backfilling or use of steel plate will
be waived in cases where the trench is located further than 100 feet from any traveled
roadway or occupied structure. In such cases, how/ever, barricades and warning lights
meeting OSHA requirements shall be provided and maintained.

D. Trench Over-Excavation: Where the Drawings indicate that trenches shall be
over-excavated, they shall be excavated to the depth shown, and then backfilled to the
grade of the bottom of the pipe.
E. Over-Excavation: When ordered by the ENGINEER, whether indicated on the Drawings
or not, trenches shall be over-excavated beyond the depth shown. Such over-excavation
shall be to the depth ordered. The trench shall then be backfilled to the grade of the
bottom of the pipe. All work specified in this Section shall be performed by the
CONTRACTOR when the over-excavation ordered by the ENGINEER is less than
6 inches below the limits shown. When the over-excavation ordered by the ENGINEER
is over 6 inches below the limits shown, additional payment will be made to the
CONTRACTOR for that portion of the work which is located below said 6 inch distance.
Said additional payment will be made under separate unit price bid items for
over-excavation and bedding if such bid items have been established; othenwise
payment will be made in accordance with a negotiated price.
F. Where pipelines are to be installed in embankment or structure fills, the fill shall be
constructed to a level at least one foot above the top of the pipe before the trench is
excavated.
G. Obtain ENGINEER'S approval before beginning excavation. Complete clearing and
grubbing prior to the start of trenching. Do not permit excavated materials to cover brush
or trees prior to disposal.
3.4 OVER-EXCAVATION NOT ORDERED, SPECIFIED, OR SHOWN

DWG AS7.4
1. Indicates steel fence and gates which occur between buildings 1, 2, 3 and 4. The
referenced details, 18 & 19/AS7.3 illustrate a mounting bolt on the inside face of
the tube steel tube and state: "Anchor Bolt Per Structural". No information
regarding this work found on the structural plans, including bolt size or spacing.
The referenced details indicate the mounting bolt is located inside the steel tube.
In order to install a bolt in this way, a hole larger than the bolt and washer would
need to be drilled or cut in the outside wall of the tube and then patched in the
field after installation of the tube. There is no reference on the plans regarding
access to this bolt or patching of the steel tube. Detailing not complete. Some
access holes shown in some detail, but not others
DWG A2.6
1. Indicates the bottom of truss for Building 2 is 11 "-0" aff. Plan sheet A2.3 indicates
that most of the acoustic ceiling is at 10'-0" aff. Plan sheet M2.1 indicates that
most of the HVAC ducts are at least 14" high. It appears that there is insufficient
space between the bottom of truss and the acoustic ceiling to accommodate the
HVAC ducts. Not corrected.
DWG AS3.1
1. Indicates a mezzanine located over Rooms 309b., 311 & 311 a. which is
accessible through a 30"x30" ceiling access panel. The location ofthe access
panel shown on A3.la conflicts with the location indicated on A3.3. Either
location conflicts with other components including the roof access ladders and
EF 3-7 & 3-8 shown on M3.1. The mezzanine deck framing consists of 2x12 at
16" o/c. There is no structural detail indicating the framing for this 30° opening.

L INTRODUCTION
We provided geotechnical observation and testing services during the earthwork operations asso-
ciated with the mass grading and storm drain installation at the subject site. The earthwork was
performed in preparation for the planned Alga Norte Community Park in Carlsbad, Califomia.
The purpose of our services was to observe, document, and test soils used during the earthwork
operafions, and evaluate compliance with the geotechnically-related portions of the project plans,
specifications, and referenced geotechnical report. We performed field and laboratory tests of
representative soil samples to evaluate relative compaction of the fill and to characterize the soils
used as fill materials. Our findings and conclusions are presented herein.
2. SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The 33-acre site is bounded to the south and east by Poinsettia Lane and Alicante Road, respec-
tively. The site occupies the lower portion of a north-south trending valley and was previously used
for agricultural purposes. Sloping hillsides are present on the west side of the property. A flood
control berm bounds the northeastern portion of the property. Two sewer force mains were previ-
ously installed and exist on the southem margin of the site parallel to Poinsettia Lane. Site
elevations prior to earthwork ranged from approximately 105 feet above Mean Sea Level (MSL) at
the southeastem comer of the site to approximately 175 feet MSL along the westem side of the
site.
Prior to grading for the subject project, the site was undeveloped, except for a large stockpile (ap-
proximately 110,000 cubic yards) of borrow material located on the southem portion of the site. As
part of the subject mass grading development, cuts of approximately 40 feet deep (including the
higher portion of the large stockpile) and fills of approximately 20 feet thick were made with
heavy earth moving equipment. This mass grading resulted in a relafively flat site to support the
planned community park.
Planned improvements for a future phase of development of the park include an aquatic cen-
ter with an Olympic-size competition swimming pool, training pool, and several associated
one-story buildings and flatwork; a moving river pool; a skate park; several restroom build-

ings; a concession stand building; a maintenance complex; ball fields and playing fields; and
paved parking. One or more retaining walls are also planned. The northernmost fill slope was
lined with stone riprap.
3. GEOLOGY
The earth units encountered during grading and utilized on the site are similar to the units de-
scribed in the geotechnical design report (Ninyo & Moore, 2006) for the project. The as-graded
site is underlain by compacted fill (placed as part of the subject project and from a previous flood
control project), undocumented borrow fill (previously stockpiled materials), alluvium, and ma-
terials of the Santiago Formation. The following secfions describe the materials and exposures
encountered during grading. The locations of the mapped units within the grading limits, except
for new compacted fill, are shown on Figure 1.
3.L Fill
Undocumented and documented fill soils are present at the site. As part of the subject pro-
ject, compacted fill was observed, placed and documented. In general, the fill soils consist of
dark reddish and grayish brown to olive brown, damp, silty to sandy clay, and light brown,
clayey to silty fine sand to poorly-graded sand.
In addition to the compacted fill materials described, an approximately 2-foot thick layer of
cmshed rock was placed as fill over stabilization fabric in the northeastem margin of the
site. These materials underlie the future skatepark and were placed as part of stabilization ef-
forts of the excavation bottom. These crushed rock materials are overlain by compacted fill
separated from the crushed rock by a filter fabric. The approximate location of the stabiliza-
tion crushed rock is shown on Figure 1.
Undocumented borrow fill materials remain from a portion of the large stockpile in the
southeasterly portion of the site. These stockpile materials are discussed in prior reports
(Ninyo & Moore, 2007). The approximate location of the undocumented borrow fill (previ-
ous stockpile) is shown on Figure 1.

Alga Norte Community Park Revised Febmary 4, 2011
Carlsbad, Califomia Project No. 104600005
Due to relatively shallow groundwater conditions encountered during grading, bridging fill
was used in selected areas to facilitate earthwork operafions. The bridging fill materials con-
sist of relatively granular on-site materials, which may be loose and wet. The approximate
locafion of the bridging fill materials are shown on Figure 1. The placement of the bridging
fill is discussed further in the Earthwork section of this report.
Compacted fill materials documented as part of other grading operations are present in the
northeastem margin of the site. These fill materials comprise a portion of the former flood
control berm and their characteristics are discussed further in other reports (Ninyo & Moore,
2010a).
3.2. Alluvium
Alluvium was observed during grading and underlies fill materials or is exposed at the sur-
face or in cut slope faces. The alluvium consisted of pale brown to dark brown, damp to
moist, loose sand to silty sand to silt, as well as dark yellowish and grayish brown to brown,
very stiff silty to sandy clay. Loose, saturated alluvium was encountered in the low lying
portions of the site during grading.
3.3. Santiago Formation
The Santiago Formation is exposed on the westem cut slopes, and underlies the fill and allu-
vium at the site. In general, the Sanfiago Formafion materials encountered consist of
yellowish brown, weakly cemented silty sandstone and light gray to olive brown, moder-
ately to strongly indurated clayey siltstone and strongly indurated claystone.
3.4. Groundwater
Groundwater was encountered in lower portions of the site (beneath the future pavement
area and area of the sewer force mains) as shallow as 1 foot below the ground surface during
mass grading. Although earthwork was performed after a period of seasonal rainfall,
groundwater or seepage was not encountered in cut slopes or temporary excavations on the
1046(KMX)5R-r.v.d>,c 3 «#f» MflUrf
Alga Norte Community Park Revised Febmary 4, 2011
Carlsbad, Califomia Project No. 104600005
westem portion of the project. Fluctuations in the groundwater level may occur due to varia-
tions in ground surface topography, subsurface geologic conditions and stmcture, rainfall,
irrigation, and other factors. For example, where groundwater was encountered as shallow as
1 foot at the time of the mass grading, groundwater was not encountered during excavations
approximately 20 feet deep performed as part of the constmction of a flood control berm by
others in August, 2003 (Geocon, 2004).
4. SUMMARY OF EARTHWORK OPERATIONS
Earthwork operations at the site commenced on April 8, 2010 and were generally finished on Au-
gust 4, 2010. Fill operations began on April 14, 2010 and finished on August 4, 2010, with our
testing performed until September 9, 2010. Preparation for earthwork activities consisted of clear-
ing and gmbbing of vegetation and deleterious material. As part of the subject mass grading
development, cuts of approximately 40 feet deep and fills of approximately 20 feet thick were
made with heavy earth moving equipment. Various sized storm drain pipelines were installed at the
site. The contractor used a combination of earthmoving and compaction equipment to achieve the
specified compaction of the soils placed as fill and backfill. Our field representative observed the
earthwork and performed field density testing services during the placement of compacted fill.
Preparation of the soils exposed at the bottom of the removals for placement as fill consisted of
scarifying, moisture conditioning to near optimum, and compacting the soils to 90 percent rela-
tive compaction. Fill soils derived from on-site excavations were processed, moisture
conditioned to near optimum, placed in lifts approximately 8 to 12 inches in loose thickness, and
then compacted. The contractor used dozers and scrapers to spread the materials and mbber-tire
loaders, mbber-tire and steel drum sheepsfoot compactors, and loaded scrapers to achieve com-
paction of the soils placed as fill. Trench backfill operations generally consisted of premixing
stockpiled materials to near optimum moisture conditions, placing the conditioned soils in 12-
inch lifts, and compacting the soils with a sheepsfoot roller attached to a backhoe or an excavator
or with a mechanical jumping jack.

4.L Structural Areas
Stmctural areas will support buildings, swimming pools, skate parks, and flatwork. These
areas are shown on Figure 1. The stmctural areas were over-excavated to provide for the
placement of compacted fill. Earthwork for the preparation ofthe building pads consisted of
the removal of potentially compressible alluvium to approximately 12 feet below grade (or
less if formational material was encountered), and the placement of compacted fill. The ap-
proximate removal elevation in structural areas is shown on Figure 1. The compacted fill
materials in the upper 5 feet of building pads and upper 3 feet of flatwork areas (or 3 feet
beneath future swimming pool and skate park shells) consisted of Select Fill materials. Se-
lect Fill materials were generally low expansive, low corrosive soil materials.
At the skate park in the northeastem margin of the site, our evaluation previously recom-
mended removals of up to 12 feet of the alluvium. During grading, however, this area was
impacted by shallow groundwater. Due to the shallow groundwater, we evaluated the rec-
ommended removals (Ninyo & Moore, 2010a), As a result of the evaluafion, the removals
consisted of the upper approximately 5 feet of alluvium. Stabilization efforts of the excava-
tion bottom included the placement of a stabilization fabric and an approximately 2-foot
thick layer of stabilizing crushed rock. The approximate limits of the 5 foot deep removal
and stabilizing crushed rock underlie a portion of the future skate park as shown on Figure 1.
These cmshed rock materials are overlain by compacted fill separated from the cmshed rock
by a filter fabric.
Furthermore, we evaluated a flood control berm previously constmcted beneath the southem
portion of the proposed skate park (Ninyo & Moore, 2010a). The evaluation indicated that
the berm was overexcavated and consists of approximately 30 feet of compacted fill. Testing
of these fill materials indicated they were expansive in nature below the proposed skate park
shell. Due to the expansive nature of this existing compacted fill material, the materials were
removed to a depth approximately 3 feet beyond the extent of the skate park shell and re-
placed with compacted fill consisting of Select Fill.

During the over-excavation of alluvium at the Maintenance Complex, care was taken by the
contractor to preserve the buried force mains. For this reason, lateral earthwork setbacks to
the existing buried sewer force mains were approximately 7 feet. Therefore, the actual foot-
print of the over-excavation performed differs from that shown on the grading plans. The
approximate footprint of the removal and 3-foot deep replacement with Select Fill is shown
on Figure 1.
4.2. Undocumented Fill
Undocumented borrow fill materials remain from a portion of the large stockpile on the
southem portion of the site. In areas of future ball parks (not considered structural areas), the
stockpile was cut to grade without further processing. The grade in these areas, therefore,
consists of the undocumented borrow fill materials as shown on Figure 1. In addition to the
borrow fill shown on Figure 1, in this area organic-rich alluvium excavated from the skate
park area was placed in shallow lifts upon the finish graded surface for landscaping pur-
poses.
4.3. Pavement Area
Where pavement improvements are planned, the upper 3 feet of the alluvium, or the upper 3
feet of the undocumented borrow fill materials at subgrade, were over-excavated and re-
placed as compacted fill, with exceptions noted in Section 4.4 of this report. Compacted fill
comprised of on-site soils was constmcted over these over-excavated materials.
4.4. Bridging FiU
Due to the loose, compressible nature of shallow site materials, our referenced geotechnical
evaluation report recommended the removal and replacement (overexcavation) of the upper
3 feet of alluvial materials before fill placement in parking areas. At the time of our explora-
tions, groundwater levels were approximately 14 feet below grade at the site (Ninyo &
Moore, 2006). During grading, potholing performed at the lower portions of the site indi-
cated that groundwater was on the order of 1 foot below grade. Such conditions could not
io46(xxx)5R.„.v.doc 6 Mffifo MQure
Alga Norte Community Park Revised Febmary 4, 2011
Carlsbad, Califomia Project No. 104600005
provide temporary support needed for the placement of compacted fill by heavy constmction
equipment. Therefore, the planned 3-foot deep overexcavation was not considered feasible
in these areas without dewatering or other supplemental methods.
We evaluated supplemental methods to constmct the compacted fill. The method selected by
the City consisted of the placement of bridging fill over the loose, shallow site materials.
The bridging fill was constructed in two general areas using two methods. The first area
where bridging fill was used is where shallow groundwater was encountered underlying the
area of the proposed parking lot in the eastem portion of the site (adjacent to Alicante Road).
An approximately 3-foot thick layer of bridging fill was pushed onto the gmbbed surface in
this area in approximately 10- to 12-inch thick lifts using a D8 dozer.
The second area included the southem portion of the site adjacent to Poinsettia Lane where
sewer force mains are buried. In this area, an approximately 4-foot thick layer of bridging
fill was placed to protect the force mains from heavy equipment loading. The bridging fill
also provided a working surface for the heavy earthwork equipment due to the effect of shal-
low groundwater on the loose, shallow site materials. The bridging fill consisted of granular,
on-site soil material. The bridging fill was placed by pushing 6-inch thick lifts of material
over an area surrounding the force mains using with a D6 dozer.
In both areas, the bridging fill was tested for relative compaction as discussed in the Labora-
tory and Field Testing section of our report. These areas are shown on Figure 1 as Bridging
Fill.
4.5. Oversize Materials
Oversized materials at the site were encountered during removals of the existing stockpile in
the southem portions of the site. These oversize materials were generally removed from the
site. However, site fill materials may contain occasional cobbles. In addition, concretions in
the fonnational materials may result in oversize materials in future excavafions.

4,6. Subdrains
Subdrains were not installed at the site during the subject earthwork project. Although earth-
work was performed after a period of seasonal rainfall, groundwater or seepage was not
encountered in cut slopes or temporary excavations on the westem portion ofthe project.
5. LABORATORY AND FIELD TESTING
During the earthwork, we performed laboratory testing to evaluate the fill materials. Laboratory
testing was performed on representative samples of the materials used for fill. Select Fill, and
trench backfill materials to evaluate engineering characteristics. The modified Proctor was evalu-
ated in general accordance with American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Test Method
D 1557, and the results are presented in Table 2. The results of the modified Proctor tests were util-
ized in the evaluation ofthe relative compaction of the fill and backfill materials. Expansion index
testing was performed on soils proposed for use as Select Fill. Expansion Index tests were per-
formed in accordance with ASTM D 4829. The results of these tests are presented in Table 3.
Laboratory testing was performed on representative samples to evaluate corrosive properties ofthe
soils including pH and electrical resistivity, as well as chloride and sulfate contents. The pH and
electrical resistivity tests were performed in accordance with Califomia Test 643 and the sulfate
and chloride tests were performed in accordance with Califomia Tests 417 and 422, respectively.
These laboratory test results are presented in Table 4. The resistance R-value of a representative
sample of subgrade materials in the pavement area were tested in general accordance with Califor-
nia Test Method 301. These laboratory test results are presented in Table 5.
In-place density and moisture content testing was performed by our field representative, in ac-
cordance with ASTM D 6938 (Nuclear Gauge Method). A summary of our field density and
moisture content test results and approximate test elevations are presented in Tables 6 and 7. The
approximate locations ofthe in-place density tests are presented on Figure 1. The project docu-
ments indicate that the specified relative compaction for compacted fill and trench backfill is
90 percent of the modified Proctor density. The specified relative compaction for slope face be-
neath stone riprap is 95 percent. During the earthwork operations, when a field density test was
1046(XXX)5R-rev.doc
Alga Norte Community Park Revised February 4, 2011
Carlsbad, Califomia Project No. 104600005
performed that resulted in less than the specified relative compaction, the area was generally re-
worked, and a retest was performed.
Where bridging fills were constmcted approximately 4 feet thick above existing sewer force
main backfill and 3 feet thick under parking areas, density testing was performed in the bridging
fill. These tests results indicated between 85 and 90 percent relative compaction. Portions of the
bridging fill were not tested as the fill was intended to merely bridge the loose, wet soils below.
6. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Our field representative was generally on site during the placement of compacted fill for the
building pads and areas, as well as during the backfill of storm drains. The removal bottoms were
documented by our representative before fill placement. The field density tests perfonned during
these operations indicated the specified relative compaction or greater, after testing the reworked
areas. Based on our observations and the results of our field and laboratory tests, it is our opinion
that the earthwork operations were performed in general accordance with the earthwork recom-
mendations presented in the project earthwork specifications with exceptions. Therefore, the
planned improvements may be designed and constructed in accordance with the recommenda-
tions in our geotechnical evaluation report (Ninyo & Moore, 2006), except as noted below.
6.L Bridging Fill
Due to the effect of shallow groundwater levels on the loose, compressible shallow site ma-
terials, portions of the site could not provide temporary support needed for the placement of
compacted fill by heavy constmction equipment. The City, therefore, selected a supplemen-
tal method to place compacted fill consisting of bridging fill as discussed in Section 4.4.
The buried bridging fill and loose, compressible shallow site materials left in place (as dis-
cussed in Section 4.4 and shown on Figure 1) will undergo long-term settlement due to the
weight ofthe overlying fill embankment. These settlements are estimated to be on the order
of 8 inches over a period on the order of five to ten years. Such settlement is beyond that an-
ticipated where the recommended removals and compacted fill was performed. As a result.
1046(XXX)5 R - rev.doc
Alga Norte Community Park Revised Febmary 4, 2011
Carlsbad, Califomia Project No. 104600005
we anticipate the finish grade will experience differential settlements beyond typically toler-
able amounts. Therefore, we recommend that project planning a) consider delaying the
installation of rigid pavements and hardscape to the extent possible and b) assume that a re-
vised structural pavement section and hardscape details will be recommended by Ninyo &
Moore as evaluated at the actual time of the pavement development,
6.2. Expansive Soils
During grading of the competition pool, the contractor elected to borrow on-site fill materi-
als (i.e., not suitable) from cuts and directly place the materials as fill in the compefition
pool excavation. The fill materials which comprise the future walls of the pool were evalu-
ated during grading and found not to meet the specifications for Select Fill (Ninyo & Moore,
2010b). The results ofthe laboratory testing of representafive samples of these fill materials
is included in Table 3 as "Competifion Pool Fill,"
The result of this borrow action was that the future walls of the competition pool exhibit a
medium expansion potential, exceeding the specificafions for Select Fill. Since these materi-
als were elected to be left in place, we recommend that the future swimming pools be
designed to tolerate expansive soils, and consider potentially corrosive soil condifions.
6.3. Corrosive Soils
Corrosivity testing of representative site fill materials was performed during grading. The
results of the testing of representative subgrade soils exposed at the stmctural areas of the
pool deck and Maintenance Complex indicated an electrical resistivity of the sample tested
as low as 330 ohm-cm, a chloride content as high as 610 parts per million (ppm) and a sul-
fate content as high as 0.116 percent. Based on Caltrans criteria, the on-site soils would be
classified as corrosive, which is defmed as soil with more than 500 ppm chlorides, more
than 0.2 percent sulfates, a pH less than 5.5, or a resistivity of 1,000 ohm-cm or less. We
recommend that a corrosion engineer provide further recommendations.
104600005 R - rev.doc ] Q
Alga Norte Community Park Revised Febmary 4,2011
Carlsbad, Califomia Project No. 104600005
Concrete in contact with soil or water that contains high concentrations of soluble sulfates
can be subject to chemical deterioration. Laboratory testing indicated a sulfate content ofthe
near surface soils up to 0.116 percent. Soil with sulfate content greater than 0.1 percent is
considered moderately susceptible to sulfate attack, and soils with a sulfate content greater
than 0.2 percent is considered severely corrosive (ACI, 2008). Therefore, concrete stmctures
in contact with soil should be specified with a compressive strength of 3,000 pounds per
square inch. Due to the variability in the on-site soils and the potential future use of re-
claimed water at the site, we recommend that Type II/Y cement be used for concrete
stmctures in contact with soil and concrete with a water to cement ratio of no more than
0.45. We recommend that 3 inches of concrete cover be provided over reinforcing steel for
cast-in-place stmctures in contact with the soil (ACI, 2008).
6.4. Updated Pavement Recommendations
We understand that the proposed development will include an asphalt concrete-paved access
drive and parking lot. Preliminary pavement designs were provided in our geotechnical evalu-
ation report for planning purposes. Subsequently, laboratory testing was performed on a
representative bulk sample of the soils exposed at the as-graded subgrade to evaluate R-
value of the graded site. The test results indicate an R-value of 21 for the sample tested. We
have used an R-value of 20 for the basis for design of flexible pavements at the project site.
When finished grading is performed to adjust site grades, pavement recommendations
should be based on R-value tests performed on bulk samples of the soils that are exposed at
the finished subgrade elevations at that time. For design we have used Traffic Indices (TI) of
6.0 for access drives and 5.0 for parking stalls. The current updated recommended pavement
sections are shown in Table 1.

' Tiiese results should be re-evaluated if site grades are changed during fmish grading.
As indicated, these values assume traffic indices where little to no tmck traffic is anticipated.
If traffic loads are different from those assumed, the pavement design should be re-
evaluated. We recommend that the upper 12 inches of the subgrade and aggregate base be
compacted to a relative compaction of 95 percent. •
We suggest that consideration be given to using portiand cement concrete pavements in ar-
eas where dumpsters will be stored and where refuse tmcks will stop and load. Experience
indicates that refuse truck traffic can significantiy shorten the useful life of asphalt concrete
sections. We recommend that in these areas, 6 inches of 600 psi flexural strength portiand
cement concrete reinforced with No. 3 bars, 18-inches on center be used.
6.5. Seismic Design Considerations
Design of the proposed improvements should be in accordance with the requirements of govem-
ing jurisdictions and applicable building codes. Table 2 presents the seismic design parameters
for the site in accordance with Califomia Building Code (CBSC, 2010) guidelines and mapped
spectral acceleration parameters (USGS, 2010).

6.6. Plan Review and Construction Observation
The conclusions and recommendations presented in this report are based on analysis of observed
conditions at the time of mass grading. If conditions are found to vary from those described in
this report, Ninyo & Moore should be notified, and additional recommendations will be pro-
vided upon request. Ninyo & Moore should review the final project drawings and specifications
prior to the commencement of constmction. Ninyo & Moore should perform the needed obser-
vation and testing services during constmction operations. Prior to placement of improvements,
or following a delay in the grading operations or inclement weather, the previously compacted
fill should be evaluated by Ninyo & Moore. Unless otherwise recommended, the fill should be
scarified, moisture conditioned, and recompacted,
7. LIMITATIONS
The geotechnical services outlined in this report have been conducted in accordance with current
practice and the standard of care exercised by geotechnical consultants performing similar tasks
in this area. No warranty, expressed or implied, is made regarding the observations and conclu-
sions expressed in this report. The reported test results represent the relative compaction and
moisture content at the locations tested. It is important to note that the precision of field density
tests and the laboratory dry density tests is not exact and variations should be expected. The re-
ported locations, depths and elevations of the density tests are estimated based on correlations
with the site plans. Further accuracy is not implied.

Digital Submittals FAQ
Here are the answers to sonne Frequently Asked Questions regarding the
Digital Submittal of Maps and Plans to the City of Carlsbad.
When are Digital Submittals required?
The tinning of digital submittals depends on the type of map or plan being
submitted. The following list summarizes the submittal points for digital maps
and plans.
Final Tract Map (Final Map) -
First submittal and Mylar submittal ofthe Final Tract Map (Final Map)
Improvement Plans -
First submittal and Mylar submittal of the Improvement Plan
Grading Plan -
First submittal and Mylar submittal of the Grading Plan
What file format do I use?
Digital files must be In either AutoCAD (dwg or dxf) format. The files must
be on PC formatted media ofthe following types: CD or DVD.
RIes should not be compressed. If possible.
Files should not be submitted in Intergraph drawing file, or any graphic
(BMP/JPG/TIFF/PDF/etc.) format.
What about Layer Names?
The Standard specifies layer names and the data to be contained on each
layer. However, since most companies have their own Internal standards, the
City will only require that the data specified for each layer be contained on
one or more discrete layers, with a chart specifying which of the layers
submitted correspond to the required layers.
I use X-Refs. How do I deal with those?
Include any files that are referenced by the drawings with the submittal.
The easiest way to include all the files will be to use the "Pack' n Go" or
"^E-Transmit" feature that comes with AutoCAD.
Digital Submittals FAQ
Revised 1/18/2012
City ofCarlsbad
I do all my drafting by hand. Do I have to convert my files to a digital
format?
If you do not have the capability to submit the required digital files, call
Alfred Romero at (760) 602-2769 (email alfred.romero@carlsbadca.gov) to
discuss the issue.
Do I need to format the drawings in any certain way?
One of the primary issues has been the point of origin for the digital flies. The
Standard requires that all maps and plans be submitted in Califomia
Coordinate System (CCS) coordlnates-NAD83. This allows the files to be
inserted into the GIS database in the correct location. If the drawings are not
in CCS coordinates, they cannot be properly located on the City base map.
How do I Icnow if my drawings are in CCS (NAD83)?
To check if your drawings are in NAD83 you will need to "XREF" the
''Carlsbad_NAD83R14.dwg" (included with the City standard title sheet
drawings available at the Engineering front counter) and use the Insertion
point (0,0,0).
If you have not found the answer to your question, please call Alfred Romero
at (760) 602-2769 or email alfred.romero(acarlsbadca.aov for further
Information.

system to operate the applications that the system was initially designed to support, ie
those identified in the current (at the time of tendering) versions of the Cabling
Performance Specifications (that is the AS/NZS 3080, ISO11801 or TIA/EIA 568-B.2-
1).
3.3 COMPLIANCE TESTS
A. The installer must individually test 100% of the UTP cables and fibre optic cables after
installation of the cables to determine compliance to AS/NZS 3080 performance
requirements. Where ever possible, progressive testing of both fibre and copper
Permanent Links or Channels is recommended to ensure errors or unacceptable
installation practices are minimized on the site. All test results, including Passes, 'Star-
Passes' and Failures, shall be kept by the installer prior to customer acceptance of the
site. At customer acceptance, the final test results shall be given to the end user for
retention during the period of the warranty. ADC KRONE does not accept cable runs
with failures as part of the normal Warranted installation. Prior to acceptance by the
customer, all compliance test results shall be made available to ADC KRONE staff on
request to verify Pass results and discuss failures and 'Star-Passes'. Any rectification
work and re-testing of cable runs containing failures or 'Star-Passes' shall be at the
installer's expense.
B. Class E Performance Testing on Cat 6 Installations. The Structured Cabling System
shall be tested by the installer for compliance to the requirements specified in the latest
AS/NZS 3080 standard for Class E performance using Level 3 testers in accordance
with AS/NZS lEC 61935.1 - Testing. A certain percentage of the outlets may be
chosen at random for the final acceptance testing by the end-user or in their absence,
by ADC KRONE. The design data and the full results of all compliance tests performed
by the installer are to be fully documented and submitted to end-user to hold for the
period of the warranty. The results must include 100% of total installation and provide
full electronic data files for each cable run indicating the name of the person doing the
testing, date, building, cable identification, cable length. Insertion Loss, NEXT,
PSNEXT, ACR, PSACR, Propagation Delay, Delay Skew, ELFEXT, PSELFEXT.and
Return Loss. Length alone is not considered to be a pass/fail criteria. The compliance
criteria shall be in accordance with the compliance requirements set out in

c. Propagation Delay
d. Optical Attenuation of Link, 2 x wavelengths, 2 x direction
Conduct the tests in accordance with ADC KRONE'S Performance Testing
of Optical Fibre Links For Compliance To ISO/IEC 11801, using either
LSPM and/or OTDR equipment. If conflict exists, correct testing with LSPM
shall be taken as correct. Where LSPM results exceed the Power Loss
Budget, the link shall be investigated with an OTDR to determine the
location of the faulty component.
D. Reference Setting (Zeroing) Methods for LSPM Testers on MMF and SMF
1. If the connectors are the same on the LSPM tester and the Link to be tested, use
1-Test Cord Method of Reference Setting as per Cl 9.1.2 of ISO/IEC 14763-3
(Eg. SC on tester and both ends of Link). Where the connectors on the LSPM
tester are different from the connectors on the Link to be tested, use the 3-Test
Cord Method of Reference Setting as per Cl 9.1.1 of ISO/IEC 14763-3 (Eg. SC
on Tester and LC on Link)
E. Use of Mandrels or Coils (for both 3 & 1 -Test Cord Methods)
1. For MMF, the LSPM Tester shall have the correct Coupling Power Ratio for the
cable under test. This can also be achieved by using a Mandrel Wrap on the
Launch Cord for mode stripping during Reference Setting and Testing. For a 3
mm Launch Cord, 5 turns on 17 mm 0 for 62.5 pm 5 turns on 22 mm 0 for 50
pm. For SMF, the LSPM test launch cord shall have at least 2 x turns of 40±5
mm diameter, aircoiled or on a mandrel, for stripping light out of the cladding and
more consistent readings.
F. Test Cords and Field Calibration Cords (for both 3 & 1 -Test Cord Methods)
1. All Test Cords & Field Calibration cords shall be Qualified. Launch and Tail
Cords for MMF & SMF LSPM testing shall be Im to 5m each and have a
Reference Connector at one end. Field Calibration Cord used in the 3-Test Cord
Method shall not exceed 2m in length and have Reference Connectors at both
ends. Reference Connectors shall be the same type of connectors as the cabling
to be tested. Reference Connectors shall have an attenuation of < 0.10 dB for
MMF, and < 0.20 dB for SMF.
G. Field Calibration Cord and Adaptor Removal (for 3-Test Cord Method)
1. For both MMF and SMF cabling, after the 3-Test Cord Reference Setting has
been done, the central Field Calibration Cord shall be removed and the cabling
under test connected. For a Link, the 2 x adaptors are removed with the field
calibration cord. [For a Channel, the 2 x adaptors remain on the launch and tail
cords.]
H. Compliance Criteria
1. The compliance criteria shall be a pass for all of the tests listed under Test
Requirements. The Optical Attenuation of the Link shall not exceed the Power
Loss Budget calculated in accordance with the losses set out in ISO/IEC 14763-
3:2006 and AS/NZS 3080:2003 for the optical fibre components that make up the
Link. For an ADC KRONE warranty, the optical fibre installation must pass the
requirements and test methods set out in Performance Testing of Optical Fibre
Links For Compliance To ISO/IEC 11801.

3.7 CABLING INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
A. General:
1. All cables shall be run and installed in a workmanlike manner in accordance with
AS/ACIF S009 Wiring Rules for safety and network integrity, and AS/NZS 3080
for performance. The Installer shall plan the cabling system and routing ensuring
adequate segregation from electrical and hazardous sen/ices, ensuring system
integrity and performance, ensuring that it does not present problems of
maintenance or access, and ensuring there is no conflict with the operation and
maintenance of other systems. The Tender shall give full details of the type of
cables to be used including the type of termination, identification method, method
of installation and limitations (if any). Termination of cables in the FD shall be on
racks, frames or wall-mount assemblies to suit the selected modules and/or
patch panels. Cable installed underground either direct buried or buried in
conduit shall be of gel-filled Loose Tube construction that meets the
requirements of the 'Water Penetration' test specified in lEC 60794-1-2 Clause
25, Method -FSB. In addition, such cable shall not allow fluids to penetrate
through the sheath. To comply with the identification requirements of AS/ACIF
S009, cable shall not be painted. Occasional overspray from Acrylic water-based
painting can be acceptable provided the overspray coverage does not exceed
1 m length on the cables. All metal pathways should be bonded to the building
earth system thereby providing a bonding conductor facility to minimize the
effects of noise coupling.
B. Copper Cable:
1. Cat 6 cables shall be grouped together in bundles not exceeding 24 cables per
bundle. Cat 5 cables shall be grouped together in bundles not exceeding 32
cables per bundle. Cat 6A permanent links should be at least 15 m long to
minimize low NEXT or RL issues like *Pass. Do not mix Cat 6 and Augmented
Cat 6 cables in the same bundle. CopperTen Augmented Cat 6 cables should
have 25mm separation from Cat 6 cables to minimize alien crosstalk. Do not
arrange any Cat 6 cables within bundles or in a tray in straight lines. Leave them
in a random lay to help minimize external alien crosstalk between the cables.
This is the ADC KRONE 'Random Lay In Bundle And Tray for Cat 6 cable and
Cat 6A' principle. Cat 6 cables shall be secured with Velcro™ at least 10 mm
wide or approved elastic ties. Use Velcro™ or approved elastic ties applied at
random spacings up to 300mm apart on catenary wires. Provide adequate
support for all cabling that is vertically installed, ensuring that the weight of the
cables is sufficiently supported. Use Velcro™ or approved elastic ties at approx
300mm vertical spacing. Bend control accessories (eg 'water-falls') shall be used
to restrict cable bending during and after installation so that minimum bend
radius is not exceeded. This particularly applies to all locations where cables
change from horizontal to vertical. Cables shall be installed so as not to exceed
the minimum bending radius. Use a bending radius not less than 50 mm radius
(100 mm dia) during cable pulling, and not less than 25 mm radius (50 mm dia)
for hand placement on horizontal runs eg at the TO or in skirting ducts. For
tighter bend radius applications, obtain the manufacturer's approval before
installation. For Cat 6 cable installations, the provision of spare cable should be
avoided by good design and careful selection of termination locations. However,
if specified on the drawings, allow for approx 2-3 metres of spare in the cable
runs at the FD (by J-bends or U-bends in the cabinet/rack) and possibly at the
entry to the service pole or skirting duct containing the TO. Place this spare cable
in such a manner that it is fully supported and that the minimum bending radius is
City of Carlsbad 10/01/2011 Page 13 of 17 Pages
DATA/COMMUNICATION CABLING SYSTEM 16750
maintained. Spare cable shall not be stored Class E Tender Spec ADC KRONE
061201.doc Page 18 inside service poles or skirting ducts. If spare cable is
contained in loops, there shall be mo more than 4 loops in a coil at any one
location and each loop shall be of different diameter with minimum diameter of
300 mm. Cables shall be installed so as not to exceed the maximum hauling
tension of 11kg for Cat 6 cables and CopperTen Augmented Cat 6 cables.
Consolidation Points, if installed, shall be at least 15 metres away from the FD.
There is no minimum requirement between FD and TO, or CP and TO. Red
sheathed horizontal fixed copper cabling shall be reserved for fire
detection/alarm services. Cables that penetrate fire barriers shall have the
penetrations suitably fire-stopped by qualified operators as required by local
building code regulations/laws. The amount of un-twist in a pair at any
termination shall be no more than 13mm for Cat 5 and 10mm for Cat 6 and
Augmented Cat 6. The amount of cable sheath stripped back at any termination
shall such that the sheath terminates approximately 10 mm or less from module
or socket housing for C5, C6 and Augmented C6 cables.
C. Optical Fibre Cable
1. Bend control accessories shall be used to restrict cable bending during
installation so that minimum bend radius is not exceeded as specified in the
relevant cable technical data sheet. Cables shall not be installed at a tension that
exceeds their specified limited as per in the relevant cable technical data sheet.
Cable enclosures (eg. pull boxes) shall be capable of accommodating the
specified minimum bend radius of all installed cable as a bundle. Cable direct
buried shall be in suitably prepared ground such as in well tamped surrounding
sand or soft soil. Cables used in a building shall be of Tight-Buffered low smoke
zero halogen construction and shall be resistant to UV radiation where the cable
is exposed to direct sunlight. Optical fibre cables occupying the same conduits as
LV power cables should be installed in sub-ducts to maintain the integrity of the
optical fibre cable during installation and future maintenance. Consideration must
be given to minimizing the risk of damage to underground cable through vehicle
and structural loading or soil movement or severe bending radius or above-
ground impact. Underground cable will be exposure to UV radiation where it
enters and exits the ground and it must be suitably protected at these locations.
D. Pathways - Continuous
1. Continuous pathways are Tray (flat, slotted, ladder). Ducts (in-floor, perimeter,
skirting), Conduits, Power Poles or Blades or similar. The recommendations in
AS/NZS 3084 Pathways and Spaces should be followed. All cable trays,
catenaries and ductwork required to complete the installation will be the
responsibility of the Tenderer to supply and install. The installer is to liaise with
end-user, and/or main contractor when strip-out of existing floors commences to
evaluate if any existing cable tray or ducts can be re-used. The preferred depth
of surface/skirting ducts is 50mm to accommodate the minimum bending radius
of Cat 5, Cat 6 and Augmented Cat 6 cables. Class E Tender Spec ADC KRONE
061201.doc Page 19.
a. For 3-compartment communications ducts:
1) 'A 50H X 50D mm duct shall contain no more than 18 x CopperTen
cables, or 24 x Cat 6 cables, or 32 x Cat 5 cables (ie the maximum
Cat 6 and Cat 5 bundle sizes).
2) 'A 40H X 50D mm duct shall contain no more than 12 x CopperTen
cables, or 24 x Cat 6 and Cat 5 cables.

DATA/COMMUNICATION CABLING SYSTEM 16750
3) • A 35H x 40D mm duct shall contain no more than 6 x CopperTen
cables, or 12 x Cat 6 and Cat 5 cables.
2. All necessary pathway penetrations and access between floors is the
responsibility of the Tenderer to provide, and to ensure all penetrations and
access holes at the completion of the installation are fully sealed to local
authority requirements and fire regulations by qualified personnel. Support all
cabling within the false ceiling space or under indoor raised flooring by steel
cable tray, trunking, ducting, or catenary wires, fixed by manufacturer approved
hangers and methods onto structural building or flooring elements. All conductive
pathways should be earthed to protective earth from the electrical distribution
board on the floor where such cable tray is installed. A licensed electrical
contractor must make the connection to the electrical distribution board protective
earth. Before cable is installed and after installation, ensure that conduit, trunking
and tray is thoroughly clean of any extraneous material such as cable scraps,
dust, dirt, construction debris and moisture. Any cable that has been subjected to
immersion in fluid shall have the pathway dried and cleaned and the cable shall
be completely replaced with new clean dry cable. Co-ordinate all trunking,
ducting, conduit and tray work with other services on site as necessary. Where
cables exit a tray, provide adequate protection from sharp tray edges during the
installation process and after completion. Where cables are installed in partitions
or false walls through sharp-edged metal studs, ensure bushings are secured in
these penetrations to protect cables. Restrict conduit runs to no more than 30m
of continuous run inside a building between hauling points. Restrict any single
pull to no more than two (2) x 90-degree bends, in conduits or ducts. The
pathway system shall otherwise be installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
E. Pathways - Non-continuous
1. Non-continuous pathways are Wireways (mesh, ribs). Catenaries, Hooks or
Bags. Where non-continuous- pathways are used to cable support systems, the
following minimum requirements shall be followed. The recommendations in
AS/NZS 3084 Pathways and Spaces should be followed. Catenary wires shall be
anchored to structural elements of the building and not to any service or support
accessory. The maximum number of cables on one catenary shall be 2 x bundles
of 32 for Cat 5 or 2 x bundles of 24 for Cat 6. The maximum sag of a pathway
when fully-loaded with cables shall not exceed 150 mm between any two
supports. Mesh trays for general use shall have metallic or non-metallic
crossbars at 100 mm spacing or less. Around external corners, the maximum
unsupported cable span shall be 150mm. Othenwise use a flat durable sheet in
the bottom of the pathway to support the cables. Curved bend control
accessories that support the cables shall be used to fully support the cables over
the bend surface and maintain a minimum bend radius of 50 mm in all situations
where the cable or the tray/mesh drops down at an angle of 45 degrees or
greater. The maximum height of the mass of cables on a pathway shall be
90mm. The height is reduced to 75mm if the cross bar spacing is up to 120mm in
special use trays. This ensures there is not too much weight on the bottom
cables that rest on the crossbars. The clearance above the sides of the
tray/mesh shall be at least 1/2 the width of the tray with 100mm as the minimum
clearance. Supports for non-metallic mesh shall be at 1 m spacing or less. The
maximum sag should be less that 200 mm when fully loaded. J-Hooks, bags or
saddles shall be positioned at 800 mm spacing or less. The surface of the hook
or saddle that supports the cable shall be smooth and at least 34 mm wide with
city of Carisbad 10/01/2011 Page 15 of 17 Pages
DATA/COMMUNICATION CABLING SYSTEM 16750
rounded-off edges under the cables. The fixings of any cable support system
shall be onto the building structure by solid mechanical means, not adhesive
means. Non-continuous support pathways should be run in straight lines
following the building lines, not a diagonal or zig-zag fashion. The pathway
system shall otherwise be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
Separation
1. The minimum separation between the fixed telecommunications cabling and
parallel runs greater than 3 m in length of LV fixed electrical cabling shall be at
least 300 mm for performance and noise reduction reasons. Separation from
other electrically noisy environments like power distribution mains and sub mains
and fluorescent light fittings or halogen down light transformers shall be 300 mm.
For non-warranted sites where performance is not the primary requirement, the
following safety requirements shall be maintained. A minimum of 50 mm
separation between the fixed telecommunications cabling and parallel runs of LV
electrical cabling. If the run parallel to LV electrical cables is less than 50mm,
separate the two with a solid durable barrier (if metallic it should be protectively
earthed) for the entire length of run less than 50 mm separation. Where fixed
telecommunications cables cross electrical cables, the crossing shall be at right
angles with 50mm separation (or a protective conduit/barrier extending 50 mm
both sides of the crossing) with both sets of cabling securely fixed in position to
prevent any relative movement or change in the separation. These safety
separation/segregation are set down in AS/ACIF S009 - Wiring Rules. Where
fixed cabling is installed inside modular fumiture partitions and similar enclosures
or in service poles, maintain the 50 mm safety separation or have a solid durable
separation barrier as per AS/ACIF S009. Wherever possible, maintain a
performance separation of up to 300 mm from LV power cables to minimize
noise induction. Install cables in partition ducts/trays, free from protrusion of
screws and similar sharp fasteners that may damage the cabling. Remove or
cover all sharp edges on the cabling pathway. Where patch cords are installed
behind removable panels in modular furniture or in under-desk pathways,
maintain a separation from LV power of 10 mm if possible. The preferred length
of patch cords running continuously in parallel with LV power under desks plus in
'umbilicals' is 5 m maximum. In 'umbilical' pathways associated with modular
office partition systems, the LV power and the telecommunications cables shall
use separate compartments. No additional separation or barriers are required
within the umbilical pathway. The end fittings for umbilical pathways shall be
such that the minimum bending radius of the communications cables is not
exceeded at either end.
3.8 DOCUMENTATION
The contractor shall provide complete documentation covering the installation and
maintenance of the Structured Cabling System. This includes "as built" drawings
