Comment Nos. 1 and 2 Please find attached (Figures No. 2 and 3) showing an updated geotechnical map/plot plan and geologic cross sections. Comment No. 3 It is our opinion that the proposed grading and construction will not adversely impact the adjacent properties or improvements. Comment Nos. 4 and 5 Proposed driveway and exterior concrete slabs should be at least 5 inches thick and reinforced with No. 4 rebars spaced at 18 inches on centers in two directions and placed at mid-height in the slab. Exterior slabs should be supported on the exisitssng souls scarified to a depth of 6 to 8 inches inches, moisture condititoned and compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction. Driveway and exterior slabs should be provided with construction joints spaced no more than 1 O feet apart to minimize shrinkage cracking. Slab concrete should have a minimum compressive Response to Third-Party Geotechnical Review for Proposed Two-Story Residence with Basement Garage 5462 Carlsbad Boulevard Carlsbad, California 92008 Page 2 February 17, 2021 Project No. 19-1126G3 strength of 3,000 psi and maximum water-cement ratio of 0.5 to minimize shrinkage cracking. No special testing of concrete is necessary. Some shrinkage cracking is still possible. Comment No. 6 An allowable passive pressure for foundations of 300 pounds per cubic foot may be used. Section 1806.2 of the 2019 CBC allows 400 pcffor sedimentary rock. Comment No. 7 Corrosivity tests were performed on a representative sample of the onsite soils. The attached test results (Figure 4) indicate a low degree of corrosivity. Accordingly, we recommend Type I/II Portland Cement for foundation construction. Comment No. 8 The project geotechnical engineer or engineer's representative should receive advance notice to provide the necessary intermittent fieled observations and compaction testing during site development. Comment No. 9 The attached Figure 1 provides an updated list of references. This opportunity to be of service is appreciated.
