PURPOSE AND SCOPE This report presents the results of a geotechnical investigation for a proposed business development planned in the City of Carlsbad, Califomia. The purpose of the study was to investigate the soil and geologic conditions, as well as geotechnical constraints (if any) that may impact areas of proposed development. This report provides recommendations relative to the geotechnical engineering aspects of developing the property as proposed based on the conditions encountered during this investigation. The scope of the investigation included a review of aerial photographs, topographic maps, a draft version of a previous geotechnical report and readily available published geologic and geotechnical literature pertinent to the property (see List of References). The scope also included performing a field investigation, laboratory testing to evaluate physical soil properties, engineering analyses and preparation of this report. The field investigation was conducted on March 31, April 3 and May 25, 2000, and consisted of a site reconnaissance, drilling 5 small-diameter borings and 15 cone penetrometer soundings. The borings and soundings were performed to evaluate the thickness and physical properties of the alluvium that covers the majority of the site. Details of the field investigation as well as descriptive boring and sounding logs are presented in Appendix A. Laboratory tests were performed on selected representative soil samples obtained during the field investigation to evaluate the pertinent physical properties of the soil conditions encountered. The testing program focused on determining the in-situ moisture-density, consolidation and gradation characteristics of alluvial deposits in areas of planned development. The laboratory infonnation was used in engineering analyses and to assist in providing recommendations for site grading and development. Details of the laboratory tests and a summary of the test results are presented in Appendix B and on the exploratory boring logs. The conclusions and recommendations presented herein are based on an analysis of the information obtained from the exploratory field investigations, laboratory tests, and experience with similar soil and geologic conditions. 2. SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION The generally triangular-shaped site consists of approximately 7 acres of undeveloped land located in the City of Carlsbad, Califomia (see Vicinity Map, Figure 1). Specifically, the site is bound by Palomar Airport Road on the north, Laurel Tree Road on the west, and steep, hilly terrain to the Project No. 06480-32-01 -1- February 7,2001 south. A westerly-flowing active drainage traverses the property roughly parallel to, and approximately 120 feet north of the southem property boundary. All development is proposed north of the drainage and, hence, the geotechnical investigation was performed in the area north of the drainage (see Site Plan, Figure 2, map pocket). Based on a review of the referenced 1953 aerial photographs, the drainage formerly flowed roughly through the middle of the proposed development area. Subsequent grading at the site appears to have shifted the drainage to the south to the base of the hillside. Topography varies from relatively flat within the area of proposed development between the drainage, Palomar Airport Road and Laurel Tree Road, to the steep hillside south of the drainage. The planned development area consists of a previously rough-graded pad that slopes gently from northeast to southwest, varying in elevation from approximately 97 feet above Mean Sea Level (MSL) to approximately 105 feet MSL. The drainage is lower than the pad by 5 to 10 feet. South of the drainage, the natural terrain rises steeply to a high of approximately 165 feet MSL along the southem property line. Both Laurel Tree Road and Palomar Airport Road are higher than the existing pad by 5 to 10 feet. Site vegetation consists of light weeds, crabgrass, etc., within the graded pad and a dense growth of trees and bushes as well as native grasses primarily along the drainage. Native bmsh appears to cover the slope south of the drainage. The field exploratory program was based on an initial development configuration that consisted of two proposed buildings on the east and west ends of the site. The plan was subsequently modified and the currenfly proposed development includes the constmction of one centrally located 3-story office building with one level of underground parking and associated surrounding parking and infrastmcture improvements. The building is expected to encompass approximately 120,000 square feet, resulting in an approximately 40,000-square-foot footprint. It is understood that grading for the project will consist of minor cuts with fills not greater than 1 to 2 feet. The pad grade for the underground parking level is anticipated to be an elevation of 90 feet MSL. A box culvert is proposed at the southwest comer of the site where Laurel Tree Road crosses the creek. The locations and descriptions of the site and proposed development are based on a site reconnaissance, a review of the site plan, and our general understanding of the project as presently proposed. If project details vary significantly from those described above, Geocon Incorporated should be contacted to determine the need for additional analyses or revision of this report. 3. SOIL AND GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS Two surficial soil types and one geologic formation were encountered during the field investigation. The surficial deposits consist of undocumented fill, and alluvium. The formational unit consists of the Project No. 06480-32-01 - 2 - February 7,200! Santiago Formation. Each of the surficial soil types and the geologic formation encountered is described below in order of increasing age. 3.1 Undocumented Fill The site was found to be covered with 7 to 9 feet of undocumented fill. Based on a review of the referenced preliminary geotechnical investigation dated August 18, 1982, the fill thickness varies from a few feet to at least 11 feet. The undocumented fill was observed to overlie alluvium within all of the borings and soundings with the exception of Boring B5 and Cone Penetrometer Sounding CPT 4, both located at the northwest comer of the site, where the fill was directly overlying the Santiago Formation. The fill may have been placed over 30 years ago. A review of the 1982 report indicates that the fill likely was not controlled during placement. The undocumented fill typically consisted of medium dense, clayey and silty, fine- to medium-grained sand and sandy clay. Chunks of asphalt concrete and Portland cement concrete, as well as other debris, were observed on the surface of the fill during the site investigation; however none was encountered within the borings or soundings suggesting that the debris is limited in extent. Portions of the undocumented fill will require remedial grading. 3.2 Alluvium Alluvial soils appear to underlie all but the northwest comer of the development area. Based on the exploratory borings and soundings, the alluvium is at least 55 feet thick and consists of moist to saturated, firm to very stiff, silty and fine- to medium-grained sandy clay with lenses of loose to medium dense, fine to medium-grained sand with varying amounts of silt. The alluvial deposits are considered compressible if subjected to additional loading. In addition, the clean sands within the alluvium may be susceptible to liquefaction if a major earthquake occurs. The presence of groundwater within the alluvium may affect the depth of remedial grading, especially if grading is planned during the winter months. 3.3 Santiago Formation The Tertiary-age Santiago Formation was found to underlie the surficial soils in all of the borings and consists of medium dense to very dense, massive, silty, sandstone with some stiff claystone. The Santiago Formation generally exhibits adequate bearing characteristics, but is not anticipated to impact the project due to its depth beneath the alluvium. Project No. 06480-32-01 - 3 - February 7,2001 4. GROUNDWATER Groundwater was encountered within the alluvial deposits and is expected to be an important consideration during site development. The groundwater ranged from 15 to 21 feet below the ground surface as observed in the borings; however, based on laboratory test results the clayey alluvium appears to be saturated at a depth of 8 to 9 feet. This correlates to pore pressure dissipation measurements taken within selected CPT soundings, which indicated groundwater depths between 8'/2 and 9 feet. Groundwater levels in the alluvium should be expected to fluctuate seasonally and will likely affect site grading as well as construction of the underground parking structure and the box culvert. Dewatering may be necessary during the construction of these improvements. 5. GEOLOGIC HAZARDS 5.1 Faulting and Seismicity Based on the site reconnaissance, exploratory excavations, previous work by others, and a review of the referenced geologic maps and reports, the site is not located on any known active or potentially active fault trace. An inactive fault has been mapped southwest of the site on an adjacent development and is referenced in the CDMG publication dated 1996. Based on the general trend of this feature, the fault would be located immediately west of the site if it is extended north of its mapped location. To evaluate the site seismicity characteristics, a deterministic analysis was conducted to evaluate the Maximum Credible and Maximum Probable earthquake magnitudes and corresponding site accelerations. In order to determine the distance of known faults to the site, the computer program EQFAULT (Blake, 1989, updated 1997) was utilized. The program calculates the distance from the site within a specified search radius to known "active" Califomia fauhs that have been digitized in an earthquake catalog. The program also calculates estimated site accelerations. Attenuation relationships developed by Geomatrix (1994) were used in the analysis. The results of the deterministic analysis indicate that the Rose Canyon Fault is the closest source for potential ground motion occurring at the site. The Rose Canyon Fault is located approximately 5 miles west of the site and is considered the dominant source due to its close proximity. The Rose Canyon Fault is postulated as having the potential to generate a Maximum Credible Magnitude earthquake of 6.9 and Maximum Probable Magnitude earthquake of 5.7. The "maximum credible earthquake" is defined as the maximum earthquake that appears capable of occurring under the presently known tectonic framework, while the "maximum probable earthquake" is the maximum earthquake that is considered likely to occur during a 100-year time interval (California Division of Mines and Geology Notes, Number 43). Estimated maximum credible and maximum probable ground accelerations were determined to be approximately 0.34 g and 0.18 g, respectively. Presented Project No. 06480-32-01 -4- February 7,2001 on Table 5.1 are the active faults and the associated maximum probable and maximum credible earthquakes most likely to subject the site to ground shaking. TABLE 5.1 Fault Distance From Site (miles) Maximum Credible Earthquake Magnitude Maximum Probable Earthquake Magnitude Rose Canyon 5 6.9 5.7 Newport-Inglewood (offshore) 8 6.9 5.8 Coronado Bank 21 7.4 6.3 Elsinore (Julian) 24 7.1 6.4 It is our opinion that the site could be subjected to moderate to severe ground shaking in the event of a major earthquake along any of the above-mentioned faults. However, the seismic risk at the site is comparable to that ofthe surrounding developments and the Carlsbad area in general. Seismic design parameters are presented in the Conclusions and Recommendations section within this report. 5.2 Ancient Landslides No ancient landslides were observed on the property during the investigation or aerial photograph review. 5.3 Liquefaction The potential for liquefaction during a strong earthquake is generally limited to relatively clean, sandy soils that are poorly graded, in a relatively loose, unconsolidated condition and located below the water table. A liquefaction analysis was performed using a peak ground acceleration (PGA) that has a 10 percent probability of exceedence in 50 years as suggested by CDMG Special Publication 117 (1997). The computer program FRISKSP (Blake, 1998) with attenuation relations developed by Sadigh et al. (1997) was used to determine the PGA of 0.28g. The "Simplified Method" of evaluating liquefaction potential, originally developed by Seed and Idriss (1971), with modifications and updates from Technical Report NCEER-97-0022 (1997) was used in conjunction with the computer program LIQUEFY2 (Blake and Blake, 1989) to provide a general evaluation of liquefaction potential. Further refinement of potentially liquefiable layers was conducted incorporating the results of the cone penetrometer soundings. Layers that should be further evaluated for liquefaction were determined based on methods suggested by Robertson and Campanella (1986). The liquefaction Project No. 06480-32-01 •5 -February 7, 2001 potential of those layers identified for analysis was evaluated using methods suggested by Zhang (1998). Based on the analysis discussed above, some ofthe sand lenses have the potential to liquefy during a seismic event with a PGA of 0.28g. Those layers that were identified to have the potential for liquefaction were further evaluated to quantify the magnimde of settlement that may be anticipated. Methods suggested by Tokimatsu and Seed (1987) were used to evaluate volumetric strain that could be anticipated in the event of liquefaction. Based on this analysis, liquefaction-induced settlement of approximately 2 inches could occur at various locations throughout the site with isolated locations having the potential to settle approximately 3 inches. Damage due to hquefaction is greater when ground-surface dismption occurs. Methods suggested by Youd and Garris (1995) were used to evaluate the potential for surface dismption. Based on these methods, the liquefaction analysis performed indicated that the potential for ground surface dismption to occur is low. 6. SETTLEMENT CONSIDERATIONS Due to the lack of proper documentation, the existing fill soil is not considered suitable for the support of building loads. The majority of the fill appeared to be medium dense and should be acceptable for pavement and non-building areas. Removal and recompaction of the upper two feet of existing subgrade soils should provide relatively uniform support for paved areas. Due to the relatively shallow groundwater condition and extensive depth of the alluvium, it is not considered practical to remove and compact all of the alluvial deposits underlying areas of proposed development. Hence, the settlement potential of the alluvium left in place (below groundwater) will be a consideration for site development. Laboratory test results indicate that the saturated alluvium has moderate compressibility characteristics when subjected to additional loading. Additional loading would occur if fill soil is placed to raise the pad elevation of the site and/or from the proposed building loads. It is understood that because the placement of additional fill would increase the amount of settlement, the pad elevation of proposed buildings will not exceed the existing ground surface elevation. Hence, settlement of the alluvium will result only fi-om the proposed building. For a typical three-story office building constmcted at the existing grade elevation, and assuming that the upper 9 feet of existing fill soils is removed and properly recompacted, it was estimated that a maximum of 3 inches of settlement could occur. This setdement could be mitigated by either surcharging the building pad area with 8 feet of fill or lowering the first floor level such that the soil removed is equivalent to the weight of the building. It is estimated that the surcharge fill would have to remain for a period of 4 to 8 months to achieve primary Project No. 06480-32-01 - 6 - February 7,2001 consolidation. Excavgtion ofJhe building area to balance the new building load is expected to require an excavation en 5 to 8 fe^^below existing grade. The thickness of soil that will require removal can be determined once the total building weight and/or foundation loads are known. Some settlement should also be anticipated during constmction as the soil is reloaded by the weight of the building. The total magnitude of this settlement can be evaluated once foundation loads are determined; however, it is estimated to be less than 1 inch across the building during constmction and less than /4 inch postconstruction. Project No. 06480-32-01 - 7 - February 7, 2001 7. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 7.1 General 7.1.1 No soil or geologic conditions were encountered which would preclude the development of the property as presently planned, provided the recommendations of this report are followed. As specific development plans progress, Geocon Incorporated should be contacted to review the plans and determine the need for additional investigation and/or possible modification of this report. 7.1.2 The existing undocumented fill is not considered suitable for the support of stmctural loads in its present condition and will require partial removal and compaction beneath the proposed pavement and landscape areas. 7.1.3 Because the pad grade for the building is anticipated at an elevation of 90 feet above Mean Sea Level (MSL), the imdocumented fill is expected to be removed during excavafion operations down to pad grade. 7.2 Groundwater 7.2.1 The groundwater surface in Boring Nos. 1 through 4 was found to vary firom elevation 81 feet to 87 feet MSL. In addition, the alluvium above the groundwater level was saturated. Therefore, excavations below approximately elevation 95 feet MSL will encounter wet soil conditions resulting in possible excavation, and subsequent reuse as compacted fill, difficulties. Dewatering of excavations deeper than 95 feet MSL may be necessary during constmction. 7.3 Soli and Excavation Characteristics 7.3.1 The soil conditions encountered vary from silty and clayey sands to silty clays. The soils observed within the undocumented fill consisted predominantly of clayey and silty sand with some sandy clay. The Santiago Formation typically consisted of silty sandstone with some claystone. Excavations within the Santiago Formation are not anticipated with the exception that underground utilities in the northwest comer of the site (if any) may extend into this formation. The surficial soils and the Santiago Formation are considered rippable with conventional heavy-duty grading and excavation equipment. Some cemented zones have been known to occur within the Santiago Formation where the material may require greater than normal effort to excavate. Project No. 06480-32-01 - 8 - February 7, 2001 7.3.2 The surficial deposits in areas of planned remedial grading may be very moist to saturated during the winter or early spring depending on preceding precipitation and may require mixing with drier material or drying prior to their use as compacted fill. 7.4 Grading 7.4.1 All grading should be performed in accordance with the Recommended Grading Specifications contained in Appendix C and the city of Carlsbad Grading Ordinance. Where the recommendations of Appendix C conflict with this report, the recommendations of this report should take precedence. 7.4.2 Prior.to commencing grading, a preconstruction conference should be held at the site with the owner or developer, grading contractor, civil engineer, and geotechnical engineer in attendance. Special soil handling and/or the grading plans can be discussed at that time. 7.4.3 Site preparation should begin with the removal of all deleterious material and vegetation. The depth of removal should be such that material exposed in cut areas or soil to be used as fill is relatively free of organic matter. Material generated during stripping and/or site demolition should be exported from the site. 7.4.4 The undocumented fill is anticipated to be entirely removed beneath the structure if the building pad grade remains at an elevation of 90 feet MSL. If the pad grade is adjusted higher, complete removal and compaction of the undocumented fill beneath the building and 10 feet wider than the footprint, is recommended. 7.4.5 Within pavement or hardscape parking areas, it is recommended that the undocumented fill be removed at least 2 feet below existing grade or pavement subgrade, whichever is deeper, and replaced as properly compacted fill soil. The base of the removal should be scarified 6 inches, moisture conditioned as necessary, and properly compacted. 7.4.6 The site should then be brought to final subgrade elevations with structural fill compacted in layers. In general, soils native to the site are suitable for re-use as fill if free from vegetation, debris and other deleterious material. Layers of fill should be no thicker than will allow for adequate bonding and compaction. All fill, including backfill and scarified ground surfaces, should be compacted to at least 90 percent of maximum dry density at near-optimum moisture content, as determined in accordance with ASTM Test Procedure D 1557-91. Fill materials near and/or below optimum moisture content may require additional moisture conditioning prior to placing additional fill. Project No. 06480-32-01 - 9 - February 7, 2001 7.4.7 Rock or concrete fragments should not be used in fill areas due to the anticipated limited fill thickness. 7.4.8 The excavation for the building may extend near, or below, the groundwater table. As stated previously, dewatering may be necessary. The dewatering may consist of a series of well points surrounding the excavation, or sloping the base of the excavation to one comer to allow nuisance water to be pumped from a single point. In either case, consideration should be given to providing a minimum 6-inch-thick gravel mat at the base of the excavation to provide a stable working platform. The gravel should be underlain by a geotextile fabric such as Mirafi 500X. The actual dewatering method should be determined by the contractor. 7.4.9 It is likely that the subgrade for the culvert will expose saturated, and potentially loose alluvial deposits, which could adversely impact the constmction of the stmcture. To minimize the potential for differential settlement and provide a relatively stable level subgrade during constmction, it is recommended that the base of the stmcture be underlain by at least 12 inches of cmshed gravel {VA inch maximum size). The lower 6-inches of the gravel blanket should be completely encapsulated with a geotextile such as Mirafi 500X (or equivalent). The blanket should extend a minimum of two feet wider than the culvert footprint. The gravel blanket excavation should be observed by a representative of Geocon Incorporated to verify that the soil conditions exposed are similar to those anticipated. 7.5 Slope Stability 7.5.1 No new slopes are proposed. The existing slope along Palomar Airport Road is considered to be stable and possess a factor of safety of at least 1.5 under static conditions for both deep-seated failure and shallow sloughing conditions. 7.5.2 All slopes should be landscaped with drought-tolerant vegetation, having variable root depths and requiring minimal landscape irrigation. In addition, all slopes should be drained and properly maintained to reduce erosion. Slope planting should generally consist of drought tolerant plants having a variable root depth. Slope watering should be kept to a minimum to just support the plant growth. 7.6 Seismic Design Criteria 7.6.1 The following table summarizes site specific seismic design criteria obtained from the 1997 Uniform Building Code (UBC). The values listed in Table 7.6 are for the Rose Canyon Fault (located approximately 5 miles west of the site), which is identified as a Type B fault. Project No. 06480-32-01 -10- February 7,2001 TABLE 7.6 SEISMIC DESIGN PARAMETERS Parameter Design Value UBC Reference Seismic Zone Factor, Z 0.4 Table 16-1 Soil Profile Type SF Table 16-J Seismic Coefficient, Ca 0.44 Table I6-Q Seismic Coefficient, Cy 0.99 Table 16-R Near-Source Factor, Na 1.0 Table 16-S Near-Source Factor, Ny 1.1 Table 16-T Seismic Source B Table 16-U 7.7 Mat Foundation 7.7.1 Due to differential settlement considerations, a mat foundation system is recommended for the support of the proposed building. This assumes that the elevation of the ground surface below the proposed building will be lowered such that the weight of the soil removed exceeds the weight of the proposed building (dead plus live loads but not transient loads). It is recommended that 125 pcf be assumed for the average density of the soil to be removed. 7.7.2 The proposed building would be supported on a neat foundation system designed for a soil modulus of subgrade reaction equal to 70 pci. 7.7.3 Foundation design should include allowances for buoyant forces assuming a groundwater elevation of 95 feet MSL. 7.8 Concrete Slabs—General 7.8.1 Interior slabs which are anticipated to receive moismre-sensitive floor covering, or that will be used to store moisture-sensitive materials, or where migration of moisture through the slab is undesirable should be underlain by at least 4 inches of clean sand and a suitable vapor barrier placed at the mid-point of the sand layer. 7.8.2 Crack-control joints should be provided for all at-grade concrete slabs. The spacing of the crack-control joints should be no greater than 12 feet. 7.8.3 Presaturation of subgrade soil is not deemed necessary prior to placing concrete; however, soil that is to receive concrete should be sprinkled with water as necessary to maintain a moist condition as would be expected in any such concrete placement. Project No. 06480-32-01 - 11 February 7, 2001 7.8.4 The recommendations of this report are intended to reduce, not prevent, the potential for cracking of concrete slabs. Even with the incorporation of the recommendations of this report, foundations, smcco, and at-grade concrete slabs may still exhibit cracking due to shrinkage of the concrete during curing. The occurrence of shrinkage cracks is independent ofthe supporting soil characteristics. The potential for shrinkage cracks may be reduced by limiting the slump of the concrete, proper placement and curing of the concrete, and the constmction of crack-control joints. 7.9 Retaining Walls and Lateral Loads 7.9.1 Retaining walls not restrained at the top and having a level backfill surface should be designed for an active soil pressure equivalent to the pressure exerted by a fluid with a density of 35 pounds per cubic foot (pcf). Where the backfill will be inclined at no steeper than 2.0 to 1.0, an active soil pressure of 45 pcf is recommended. These soil pressures assume that the backfill materials within an area bounded by the wall and a 1:1 plane extending upward fi-om the base of the wall possess an Expansion Index of less than 90. Where soils have an Expansion Index greater than 90 and/or where backfill materials do not conform to the above criteria, Geocon Incorporated should be consulted for additional recommendations. 7.9.2 The above recommendations apply to retaining walls for the underground parking stmcture above an elevation of 95 feet MSL. Below an elevation of 95 feet MSL, the wall should be designed to include hydrostatic loading; therefore, below 95 feet MSL the active earth pressure should be increased to 85 pcf for a level backfill. 7.9.3 Unrestrained walls are those that are allowed to rotate more than O.OOIH at the top of the wall. Where walls are restrained from movement at the top, an additional uniform pressure of 7H psf (where H equals the height of the retaining wall portion of the wall in feet) should be added to the above active soil pressure. 7.9.4 Retaining walls, other than those for the underground parking, should be provided with a drainage system adequate to prevent the buildup of hydrostatic forces and should be waterproofed as required by the project architect. The use of drainage openings through the base of the wall (weep holes, etc.) is not recommended where the seepage could be a nuisance or otherwise adversely impact the property adjacent to the base of the wall. The above recommendations assume a properly compacted granular (Expansion Index less than 90) backfill material with no hydrostatic forces or imposed surcharge load. If conditions different than those described are anticipated, or if specific drainage details are desired, Geocon Incorporated should be contacted for additional recommendations. Project No. 06480-32-01 -12- February 7,2001 7.9.5 Dewatering will likely be required for the constmction of the wing wall foundations at the box culvert. Due to settlement considerations it is recommended that these footings be designed for an allowable soil bearing pressure of 1,000 psf. This bearing pressure may be increased by one third when considering wind or seismic loads. The footing excavations should also be observed by a Geocon representative prior to placing reinforcement steel. A gravel mat may be necessary to stabilize the base of the foundation excavation for the wing wall foundations. This should be evaluated by a Geocon representative during constmction. 7.9.6 In general, wall foundations having a minimum depth and width of one foot may be designed for an allowable soil bearing pressure of 2,000 psf, provided the soil within 3 feet below the base of the wall has an Expansion Index of less than 90 and the base of the footing is above elevation 98 feet MSL. The proximity of the foundation to the top of a slope steeper than 3:1 could impact the allowable soil bearing pressure. Therefore, Geocon Incorporated should be consulted where such a condition is anticipated. 7.9.7 For resistance to lateral loads, an allowable passive earth pressure equivalent to a fluid with a density of 300 pcf is recommended for footings or shear keys poured neat against properly compacted granular fill soils or undisturbed natural soils. The allowable passive pressure assumes a horizontal surface extending at least 5 feet or three times the surface generating the passive pressure, whichever is greater. The upper 12 inches of material not protected by floor slabs or pavement should not be included in the design for lateral resistance. An allowable friction coefficient of 0.35 may be used for resistance to sliding between soil and concrete. This friction coefficient may be combined with the allowable passive earth pressure when determining resistance to lateral loads. 7.9.8 The recommendations presented above are generally applicable to the design of rigid concrete or masonry retaining walls having a maximum height of 8 feet. In the event that walls higher than 8 feet or other types of walls are plaimed, such as crib-type walls, Geocon Incorporated should be consulted for additional recommendations. 7.10 Drainage and Maintenance 7.10.1 Good drainage is imperative to reduce the potential for differential soil movement, erosion and subsurface seepage. Positive measures should be taken to properly finish grade the building pads after the stmctures and other improvements are in place, so that the drainage water firom the buildings, lots and adjacent properties are directed off the lots and to the street away from foundations and the top of the slopes. Experience has shown that even with these provisions, a shallow groundwater or subsurface water condition can and may develop in areas where no such water conditions existed prior to the site development; this Project No. 06480-32-01 - 13 - February 7,2001 is particularly tme where a substantial increase in surface water infiltration results from an increase in landscape irrigation. 7.11 Grading Plan Review 7.11.1 The soil engineer and engineering geologist should review the Grading Plans prior to finalization to verify their compliance with the recommendations of this report and determine the need for additional investigation, comments, recommendations and/or analysis. Project No. 06480-32-01 -14- February 7,2001 LIMITATIONS AND UNIFORMITY OF CONDITIONS 1. The recommendations of this report pertain only to the site investigated and are based upon the assumption that the soil conditions do not deviate from those disclosed in the investigation. If any variations or undesirable conditions are encountered during construction, or if the proposed constmction will differ from that anticipated herein, Geocon Incorporated should be notified so that supplemental recommendations can be given. The evaluation or identification of the potential presence of hazardous or corrosive materials was not part of the scope of services provided by Geocon Incorporated. 2. This report is issued with the understanding that it is the responsibility of the owner, or of his representative, to ensure that the information and recommendations contained herein are brought to the attention of the architect and engineer for the project and incorporated into the plans, and the necessary steps are taken to see that the contractor and subcontractors carry out such recommendations in the field. 3. The findings of this report are valid as of the present date. However, changes in the conditions of a property can occur with the passage of time, whether they be due to natural processes or the works of man on this or adjacent properties.

The approximate locations of the exploratory borings and soundings are shown on Figure 2. The previous proposed site configuration included buildings at different locations within the site. Hence, during the field investigation, borings were placed and grouped across the site both to accomplish general site characterization and to focus on proposed building areas. The borings were advanced to depths of between 15 and 65 feet below existing grade using a CME 55 tmck-mounted drill rig equipped with 8-inch-diameter hollow stem auger. Relatively undisturbed samples were obtained by driving a 3-inch, split-mbe sampler 12 inches into the undisturbed soil mass with blows from a 140 pound hammer with a 30-inch drop. The sampler was equipped with six 1-inch by 2.5-inch brass sampler rings to facilitate removal and testing. Standard penetration tests (SPT) were also performed by driving a 2-inch split-tube sampler into the "undisturbed" soil mass with blows from a 140-pound hammer falling 30 inches. Bulk samples were also obtained. The soils encountered in the borings were visually examined, classified, and logged. Logs of borings are presented on Figures A-1 through A-12. The logs depict the soil and geologic conditions encountered and the depth at which samples were obtained. The cone penetrometer testing consisted of pushing an instmmented cone into the underlying soils. The resistance to continuous penetration encountered by the cone tip and adjacent friction sleeve exhibit high sensitivity to changes in soil type, thus providing data on soil behavior types and correlated strength parameters. The CPT soundings were advanced to depths ranging fi^om 9 to 76 feet below the existing ground surface. Logs of the cone penetrometer soundings are presented on Figures A-13 through A-27.

GENERAL 1.1. These Recommended Grading Specifications shall be used in conjunction with the Geotechnical Report for the project prepared by Geocon Incorporated. TTie recom- mendations contained in the text of the Geotechnical Report are a part of the earthwork and grading specifications and shall supersede the provisions contained hereinafter in the case of conflict. 1.2. Prior to the commencement of grading, a geotechnical consultant (Consultant) shall be employed for the purpose of observing earthwork procedures and testing the fills for substantial conformance with the recommendations of the Geoteclmical Report and these specifications. It will be necessary that the Consultant provide adequate testing and observation services so that he may determine that, in his opinion, the work was performed in substantial conformance with these specifications. It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to assist the Consultant and keep him apprised of work schedules and changes so that personnel may be scheduled accordingly. 1.3. It shall be the sole responsibility of the Contractor to provide adequate equipment and methods to accomplish the work in accordance with applicable grading codes or agency ordinances, these specifications and the approved grading plans. If, in the opinion of the Consultant, unsatisfactory conditions such as questionable soil materials, poor moisture condition, inadequate compaction, adverse weather, and so forth, result in a quality of work not in conformance with these specifications, the Consultant will be empowered to reject the work and recommend to the Owner that construction be stopped until the unacceptable conditions are corrected. 2. DEFINITIONS 2.1. Owner shall refer to the owner of the property or the entity on whose behalf the grading work is being performed and who has contracted with the Contractor to have grading performed. 2.2. Contractor shall refer to the Contractor performing the site grading work. 2.3. Civil Engineer or Engineer of Work shall refer to the Califomia licensed Civil Engineer or consulting firm responsible for preparation of the grading plans, surveying and verifying as-graded topography. GI rev. 8/98 2.4. Consultant shall refer to the soil engineering and engineering geology consulting firm retained to provide geotechnical services for the project. 2.5. Soil Engineer shall refer to a Califomia licensed Civil Engineer retained by the Owner, who is experienced in the practice of geotechnical engineering. The Soil Engineer shall be responsible for having qualified representatives on-site to observe and test the Contractor's work for conformance with these specifications. 2.6. Engineering Geologist shall refer to a Califomia licensed Engineering Geologist retained by the Owner to provide geologic observations and recommendations during the site grading. 2.7. Geotechnical Report shall refer to a soil report (including all addenda) which may include a geologic reconnaissance or geologic investigation that was prepared specifically for the development of the project for which these Recommended Grading Specifications are intended to apply. 3. MATERIALS 3.1. Materials for compacted fill shall consist of any soil excavated from the cut areas or imported to the site that, in the opinion of the Consultant, is suitable for use in construction of fills. In general, fill materials can be classified as soil fills, soil-rock fills or rock fills, as defined below. 3.1.1. Soil fills are defined as fills containing no rocks or hard lumps greater than 12 inches in maximum dimension and containing at least 40 percent by weight of material smaller than 3/4 inch in size. 3.1.2. Soil-rock fills are defined as fills containing no rocks or hard lumps larger than 4 feet in maximum dimension and containing a sufficient matrix of soil fill to allow for proper compaction of soil fill around the rock fragments or hard lumps as specified in Paragraph 6.2. Oversize rock is defmed as material greater than 12 inches. 3.1.3. Rock fills are defined as fills containing no rocks or hard lumps larger than 3 feet in maximum dimension and containing little or no fines. Fines are defined as material smaller than 3/4 inch in maximum dimension. The quantity of fines shall be less than approximately 20 percent of the rock fill quantity. GI rev. 8/98 3.2. Material of a perishable, spongy, or otherwise unsuitable nature as determined by the Consultant shall not be used in fills. 3.3. Materials used for fill, either imported or on-site, shall not contain hazardous materials as defined by the Califomia Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 4, Chapter 30, Articles 9 and 10; 40CFR; and any other applicable local, state or federal laws. The Consultant shall not be responsible for the identification or analysis of the potential presence of hazardous materials. However, if observations, odors or soil discoloration cause Consultant to suspect the presence of hazardous materials, the Consultant may request from the Owner the termination of grading operations within the affected area. Prior to resuming grading operations, the Ovmer shall provide a written report to the Consultant indicating that the suspected materials are not hazardous as defined by applicable laws and regulations. 3.4. The outer 15 feet of soil-rock fill slopes, measured horizontally, should be composed of properly compacted soil fill materials approved by the Consultant. Rock fill may extend to the slope face, provided that the slope is not steeper than 2:1 (horizontal:vertical) and a soil layer no thicker than 12 inches is track-walked onto the face for landscaping purposes. This procedure may be utilized, provided it is acceptable to the governing agency. Owner and Consultant. 3.5. Representative samples of soil materials to be used for fill shall be tested in the laboratory by the Consultant to determine the maximum density, optimum moisture content, and, where appropriate, shear strength, expansion, and gradation characteristics of the soil. 3.6. During grading, soil or groundwater conditions other than those identified in the Geotechnical Report may be encountered by the Contractor. The Consultant shall be notified immediately to evaluate the significance of the unanticipated condition 4. CLEARING AND PREPARING AREAS TO BE FILLED 4.1. Areas to be excavated and filled shall be cleared and grubbed. Clearing shall consist of complete removal above the ground surface of trees, stumps, brush, vegetation, man-made structures and similar debris. Grubbing shall consist of removal of stumps, roots, buried logs and other unsuitable material and shall be performed in areas to be graded. Roots and other projections exceeding 1-1/2 inches in diameter shall be removed to a depth of 3 feet below the surface of the ground. Borrow areas shall be grubbed to the extent necessary to provide suitable fill materials. GI rev. 8/98 4.2. Any asphalt pavement material removed during clearing operations should be properly disposed at an approved off-site facility. Concrete fragments which are free of reinforcing steel may be placed in fills, provided they are placed in accordance with Section 6.2 or 6.3 of this document. 4.3. After clearing and gmbbing of organic matter or other unsuitable material, loose or porous soils shall be removed to the depth recommended in the Geotechnical Report. The depth of removal and compaction shall be observed and approved by a representative of the Consultant. The exposed surface shall then be plowed or scarified to a minimum depth of 6 inches and until the surface is free from uneven features that would tend to prevent uniform compaction by the equipment to be used. 4.4. Where the slope ratio of the original ground is steeper than 6:1 (horizontahvertical), or where recommended by the Consultant, the original ground should be benched in accordance with the following illustration. TYPICAL BENCHING DETAIL Finish Grade Original Grountl Finish Slope Surface Remove Ali Unsuitable Material As Recommended By Soil Engineer Slope To Be Such That Sloughing Or Sliding Does Not Occur See Note 1 See Note 2 —' No Scale DETAIL NOTES: (1) Key width "B" should be a minimum of 10 feet wide, or sufficiently wide to pennit complete coverage with the compaction equipment used. The base of the key should be graded horizontal, or inclined slightly into the natural slope. (2) The outside of the bottom key should be below the topsoil or unsuitable surficial material and at least 2 feet into dense formarional material. Where hard rock is exposed in the bottom of the key, the depth and configuration of the key may be modified as approved by the Consultant. GI rev. 8/98 4.5. After areas to receive fill have been cleared, plowed or scarified, the surface should be disced or bladed by the Contractor until it is uniform and free from large clods. The area should then be moisture conditioned to achieve the proper moisture content, and compacted as recommended in Section 6.0 of these specifications. 5. COMPACTION EQUIPMENT 5.1. Compaction of soil or soil-rock fill shall be accomplished by sheepsfoot or segmented-steel wheeled rollers, vibratory rollers, multiple-wheel pneumatic-tired rollers, or other types of acceptable compaction equipment. Equipment shall be of such a design that it will be capable of compacting the 50// or soil-rock fill to the specified relative compaction at the specified moisture content. 5.2. Compaction of rock fills shall be performed in accordance with Section 6.3. 6. PLACING, SPREADING AND COMPACTION OF FILL MATERIAL 6.1. Soil fill, as defined in Paragraph 3.1.1, shall be placed by the Contractor in accordance with the following recommendations: 6.1.1. iS'o/7 fill shall be placed by the Contractor in layers that, when compacted, should generally not exceed 8 inches. Each layer shall be spread evenly and shall be thoroughly mixed during spreading to obtain uniformity of material and moisture in each layer. The entire fill shall be constructed as a unit in nearly level lifts. Rock materials greater than 12 inches in maximum dimension shall be placed in accordance with Section 6.2 or 6.3 of these specifications. 6.1.2. In general, the 50// fill shall be compacted at a moisture content at or above the optimum moisture content as determined by ASTM D1557-91. 6.1.3. When the moisture content of soil fill is below that specified by the Consultant, water shall be added by the Contractor until the moisture content is in the range specified. 6.1.4. When the moisture content of the 50// fill is above the range specified by the Consultant or too wet to achieve proper compaction, the 50// fill shall be aerated by the Contractor by blading/mixing, or other satisfactory methods until the moisture content is within the range specified. GI rev. 8/98 6.1.5. After each layer has been placed, mixed, and spread evenly, it shall be thoroughly compacted by the Contractor to a relative compaction of at least 90 percent. Relative compaction is defined as the ratio (expressed in percent) of the in-place dry density of the compacted fill to the maximum laboratory dry density as determined in accordance with ASTM D1557-91. Compaction shall be continuous over the entire area, and compaction equipment shall make sufficient passes so that the specified minimum relative compaction has been achieved throughout the entire fill. 6.1.6. Soils having an Expansion Index of greater than 50 may be used in fills if placed at least 3 feet below finish pad grade and should be compacted at a moisture content - generally 2 to 4 percent greater than the optimum moisture content for the material. 6.1.7. Properly compacted soil fill shall extend to the design surface of fill slopes. To achieve proper compaction, it is recommended that fill slopes be over-built by at least 3 feet and then cut to the design grade. This procedure is considered preferable to track-walking of slopes, as described in the following paragraph. 6.1.8. As an aitemative to over-building of slopes, slope faces may be back-rolled with a heavy-duty loaded sheepsfoot or vibratory roller at maximum 4-foot fill height intervals. Upon completion, slopes should then be track-walked with a D-8 dozer or similar equipment, such that a dozer track covers all slope surfaces at least twice. 6.2. Soil-rock fill, as defined in Paragraph 3.1.2, shall be placed by the Contractor in accordance with the following recommendations: 6.2.1. Rocks larger than 12 inches but less than 4 feet in maximum dimension may be incorporated into the compacted soil fill, but shall be limited to the area measured 15 feet minimum horizontally from the slope face and 5 feet below finish grade or 3 feet below the deepest utility, whichever is deeper. 6.2.2. Rocks or rock fragments up to 4 feet in maximum dimension may either be individually placed or placed in windrows. Under certain conditions, rocks or rock fragments up to 10 feet in maximum dimension may be placed using similar methods. The acceptability of placing rock materials greater than 4 feet in maximum dimension shall be evaluated during grading as specific cases arise and shall be approved by the Consultant prior to placement. GI rev. 8/98 6.2.3. For individual placement, sufficient space shall be provided between rocks to allow for passage of compaction equipment. 6.2.4. For windrow placement, the rocks should be placed in trenches excavated in properly compacted soil fill. Trenches should be approximately 5 feet wide and 4 feet deep in maximum dimension. The voids around and beneath rocks should be filled with approved granular soil having a Sand Equivalent of 30 or greater and should be compacted by flooding. Windrows may also be placed utilizing an "open-face" method in lieu of the trench procedure, however, this method should first be approved by the Consultant. 6.2.5. " Windrows should generally be parallel to each other and may be placed either parallel to or perpendicular to the face of the slope depending on the site geometry. The minimum horizontal spacing for windrows shall be 12 feet center-to-center with a 5-foot stagger or offset from lower courses to next overlying course. The minimum vertical spacing between windrow courses shall be 2 feet from the top of a lower windrow to the bottom of the next higher windrow. 6.2.6. All rock placement, fill placement and flooding of approved granular soil in the windrows must be continuously observed by the Consultant or his representative. 6.3. Rock fills, as defined in Section 3.1.3., shall be placed by the Contractor in accordance with the following recommendations: 6.3.1. The base of the rock fill shall be placed on a sloping surface (minimum slope of 2 percent, maximum slope of 5 percent). The surface shall slope toward suitable subdrainage outlet facilities. The rock fills shall be provided with subdrains during construction so that a hydrostatic pressure buildup does not develop. The subdrains shall be permanently connected to controlled drainage facilities to control post-constmction infiltration of water. 6.3.2. Rock fills shall be placed in lifts not exceeding 3 feet. Placement shall be by rock trucks fraversing previously placed lifts and dumping at the edge of the currently placed lift. Spreading of the rock fill shall be by dozer to facilitate seating of the rock. The rock fill shall be watered heavily during placement. Watering shall consist of water tmcks traversing in front of the current rock lift face and spraying water continuously during rock placement. Compaction equipment with compactive energy comparable to or greater than that of a 20-ton steel vibratory roller or other compaction equipment providing suitable energy to achieve the GI rev. 8/98 ' required compaction or deflection as recommended in Paragraph 6.3.3 shall be utilized. The number of passes to be made will be determined as described in Paragraph 6.3.3. Once a rock fill lift has been covered with soil fill, no additional rock fill lifts will be permitted over the soil fill. 6.3.3. Plate bearing tests, in accordance with ASTM Dl 196-64, may be performed in both the compacted soil fill and in the rock fill to aid in determining the number of passes of the compaction equipment to be performed. If performed, a minimum of three plate bearing tests shall be performed in the properly compacted soil fill (minimum relative compaction of 90 percent). Plate bearing tests shall then be performed on areas of rock fill having two passes, four passes and six passes of the - compaction equipment, respectively. The number of passes required for the rock fill shall be determined by comparing the results of the plate bearing tests for the soil fill and the rock fill and by evaluating the deflection variation with number of passes. The required number of passes of the compaction equipment will be perfonned as necessary until the plate bearing deflections are equal to or less than that determined for the properly compacted soil fill. In no case will the required number of passes be less than two. 6.3.4. A representative of the Consultant shall be present during rock fill operations to verify that the minimum number of "passes" have been obtained, that water is being properly applied and that specified procedures are being followed. The actual number of plate bearing tests will be determined by the Consultant during grading. In general, at least one test should be performed for each approximately 5,000 to 10,000 cubic yards of rock fill placed. 6.3.5. Test pits shall be excavated by the Contractor so that the Consultant can state that, in his opinion, sufficient water is present and that voids between large rocks are properly filled with smaller rock material. In-place density testing will not be required in the rock fills. 6.3.6. To reduce the potential for "piping" of fines into the rock fill from overlying soil fill material, a 2-foot layer of graded filter material shall be placed above the uppermost lift of rock fill. The need to place graded filter material below the rock should be determined by the Consultant prior to commencing grading. The gradation of the graded filter material will be determined at the time the rock fill is being excavated. Materials typical of the rock fill should be submitted to the Consultant in a timely manner, to allow design of the graded filter prior to the commencement of rock fill placement. GI rev. 8/98 6.3.7. All rock fill placement shall be continuously observed during placement by representatives of the Consultant. 7. OBSERVATION AND TESTING 7.1. The Consultant shall be the Owners representative to observe and perform tests during clearing, gmbbing, filling and compaction operations. In general, no more than 2 feet in vertical elevation of soil or soil-rock fill shall be placed without at least one field density test being performed within that interval. In addition, a minimum of one field density test shall be performed for every 2,000 cubic yards of soil or soil-rock fill placed and compacted. 7.2. The Consultant shall perform random field density tests of the compacted soil or soil-rock fill to provide a basis for expressing an opinion as to whether the fill material is compacted as specified. Density tests shall be performed in the compacted materials below any disturbed surface. When these tests indicate that the density of any layer of fill or portion thereof is below that specified, the particular layer or areas represented by the test shall be reworked until the specified density has been achieved. 7.3. During placement of rock fill, the Consultant shall verify that the minimum number of passes have been obtained per the criteria discussed in Section 6.3.3. The Consultant shall request the excavation of observation pits and may perform plate bearing tests on the placed rock fills. The observation pits will be excavated to provide a basis for expressing an opinion as to whether the rock fill is properly seated and sufficient moisture has been applied to the material. If performed, plate bearing tests will be performed randomly on the surface of the most-recently placed lift. Plate bearing tests will be performed to provide a basis for expressing an opinion as to whether the rock fill is adequately seated. The maximum deflection in the rock fill determined in Section 6.3.3 shall be less than the maximum deflection of the properly compacted soil fill. When any of the above criteria indicate that a layer of rock fill or any portion thereof is below that specified, the affected layer or area shall be reworked until the rock fill has been adequately seated and sufficient moisture applied. 7.4. A settlement monitoring program designed by the Consultant may be conducted in areas of rock fill placement. The specific design of the monitoring program shall be as recommended in the Conclusions and Recommendations section of the project Geotechnical Report or in the final report of testing and observation services performed during grading. GI rev. 8/98 7.5. The Consultant shall observe the placement of subdrains, to verify that the drainage devices have been placed and constmcted in substantial conformance with project specifications. 7.6. Testing procedures shall conform to the following Standards as appropriate: 7.6.1. Soil and Soil-Rock Fills: 7.6.1.1. Field Density Test, ASTM D1556-82, Density of Soil In-Place By the Sand-Cone Method. 7.6.1.2. Field Density Test, Nuclear Method, ASTM D2922-81, Density of Soil and Soil-Aggregate In-Place by Nuclear Methods (Shallow Depth). 7.6.1.3. Laboratory Compaction Test, ASTM D1557-91, Moisture-Density Relations of Soils and Soil-Aggregate Mixtures Using 10-Pound Hammer and 18-Inch Drop. 7.6.1.4. Expansion Index Test, Uniform Building Code Standard 29-2, Expansion Index Test. 7.6.2. Rock Fills 7.6.2.1. Field Plate Bearing Test, ASTM DI 196-64 (Reapproved 1977) Standard Methodfor Nonrepresentative Static Plate Load Tests of Soils and Flexible Pavement Components, For Use in Evaluation and Design of Airport and Highway Pavements. 8. PROTECTION OF WORK 8.1. During constmction, the Contractor shall properly grade all excavated surfaces to provide positive drainage and prevent ponding of water. Drainage of surface water shall be controlled to avoid damage to adjoining properties or to fmished work on the site. The Contractor shall take remedial measures to prevent erosion of freshly graded areas until such time as permanent drainage and erosion control features have been installed. Areas subjected to erosion or sedimentation shall be properly prepared in accordance with the Specifications prior to placing additional fill or stmctures. 8.2. After completion of grading as observed and tested by the Consultant, no further excavation or filling shall be conducted except in conjunction with the services of the Consultant. GI rev. 8/98 9. CERTIFICATIONS AND FINAL REPORTS 9.1. Upon completion of the work. Contractor shall fiimish Owner a certification by the Civil Engineer stating that the lots and/or building pads are graded to within 0.1 foot vertically of elevations shown on the grading plan and that all tops and toes of slopes are within 0.5 foot horizontally of the positions shown on the grading plans. After installation of a section of subdrain, the project Civil Engineer should survey its location and prepare an as-built plan of the subdrain location. The project Civil Engineer should verify the proper outlet for the subdrains and the Contractor should ensure that the drain system is free of obstmctions. 9.2. The Owner is responsible for furnishing a final as-graded soil and geologic report satisfactory to the appropriate goveming or accepting agencies. The as-graded report should be prepared and signed by a Califomia licensed Civil Engineer experienced in geotechnical engineering and by a Califomia Certified Engineering Geologist, indicating that the geotechnical aspects of the grading were perfonned in substantial conformance with the Specifications or approved changes to the Specifications.
