GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION
GROUP CARE HOME
691 SPARTA DRIVE
LEUCADIA, CALIFORNIA
INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This report presents the results of our geotechnical investigation for the subject project, to be constructed
at 691 Sparta Drive, in the City of Encinitas, California. The site location is shown on the vicinity map
provided as Figure Number 1 on the following page.
It is our understanding that the site will be developed to receive a single-story, 20-room, 15,493-square-
foot group care facility and related improvements. The structure will be of wood-frame construction.
Shallow foundations and a conventional slab-on-grade floor system are proposed. Grading will consist
of cuts and fills of less than about seven feet and four feet from existing grades, respectively. It is
anticipated that approximately half of the material excavated during grading operations will be exported
from the site.
To assist in the preparation of this report, we were provided with a grading plan prepared by Tri-
Dimensional Engineering, dated August 18, 1996, as well as a "Limited Soils Investigation, College of
Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific;" prepared by Soils Engineering, Inc., dated August 16,1990. The
sitè configuration, topography and approximate locations of our subsurface explorations are shown on
Plate Number 1 of this report.
PROJECT SCOPE
The investigation consisted of: surface reconnaissance, subsurface explorations, obtaining representative
disturbed and undisturbed samples, laboratory testing, analysis of the field and laboratory data, research
of available geological literature pertaining to the site, and preparation of this report. More specifically,
the intent of this analysis was to:
a)
Explore the subsurface conditions to the depths influenced by the proposed construction.

b)
Evaluate, by laboratory tests, the pertinent engineering properties of the various strata which will
influence proposed development, including their bearing capacities, expansive characteristics and
settlement potential.
c)
Describe the general geology at the site including possible geologic hazards which could have
an effect on the site development.
d)
Develop soil engineering criteria for site grading and provide design information regarding the
stability of cut and fill slopes.
e)
Address potential construction difficulties and provide recommendations concerning these
problems.
t)
Recommend an appropriate foundation system for the type of structures anticipated and develop
soil engineering design criteria for the recommended foundation design.
It was not within the scope of our serVIces to perform laboratory tests to evaluate the chemical
characteristics of the on-site soils in regard to their potentially corrosive impact to on-grade concrete and
below grade improvements. If desired, we can obtain samples of representative soils and submit them
to a chemical analysis laboratory for analysis. We suggest that such samples be obtained after mass site
I
I
I
grading is complete and the soils that can affect concrete and other improvements are in place. Further,
it should be understood that Southern California Soil and Testing, Inc. does not practice corrosion
engineering.
If such an analysis is considered necessary, we recommend that the client retain an
engineering firm that specializes in this field to consult with them on this matter.

FINDINGS
SITE DESCRIPTION
The project site is located south of and adjacent to Sparta Drive in the Leucadia area of Encinitas,
California. The site is currently occupied by a number of greenhouses, commercial structures, and
associated improvements, and is bordered by developed commercial lots on all sides. Site topography
generally slopes gently to moderately downward toward the northwest. Maximum topographic relief is
approximately 30 feet, with elevations ranging from 148 to 178 feet (MSL). Much of the site's eastern
property line is bordered by a steep cut slope which descends to the level of the adjacent property to the

east, while a portion of the western property line is delineated by a six-foot-high retaining wall separating
the site from the lower property to the west. A fill-over-cut slope with variable gradients is present in
the central portion of the site and separates a nearly level pad area in the northwest corner of the property
from the gently to moderately sloping area in the southeast portion of the site. Vegetation consists
primarily of native grasses and weeds, shrubs and a few large trees. A variety of trash and debris is
present in various areas of the site.
SITE GEOLOGY
GEOLOGIC SETTING AND SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS: The project site is located within the
Coastal Plains Physiographic Province of San Diego County, and is underlain by artificially-placed fill
soils, residual soils and Quaternary and Tertiary-age sedimentary deposits.
Fill soils were encountered in the low-lying, northwest portion of the site, as well as in the slope which
separates the upper and lower levels of the site. The fill consists mainly of dark brown, loose to very
loose, silty sand and clayey, silty sand. The fill encountered in Trench Number 8 near the northeastern
corner of the site was very moist to saturated, and contained significant quantities of trash such as plastic
sheeting. The fill in this trench also had a blackish color and emitted a moderately strong, unidentified
odor. The maximum fill thickness in the lower, northern portion of the site is likely to be on the order
of five to ten feet, whereas the maximum fill thickness in the slope in the central portion of the site is
estimated to be approximately ten feet.
A topsoil layer consisting mainly of dark brown, very moist, loose, fine silty sand is present throughout
nearly the entire site. The topsoil generally ranges in thickness from approximately two to four feet.
As encountered in Trenches Number 1 through 5 the topsoil is underlain by subsoil and/or weathered
terrace deposits consisting primarily of reddish-brown, humid to moist, very stiff to dense, sandy clayey
and clayey sand. The clay content within this layer decreases with depth, and the contact with the
underlying terrace deposits is gradational. The thickness of the subsoil/highly weathered layer generally
ranges from six inches to twelve inches.
The surficial fill and residual soils throughout most of the site are underlain by Quaternary-age terrace
deposits consisting mainly of reddish-brown, humid to moist, medium dense to dense, fine silty sand.
These deposits are generally moderately cemented, but locally well cemented. The terrace deposits are
present in all areas except the northeast corner of the site adjacent to Sparta Drive.

Sedimentary deposits of the Tertiary-age Torrey Sandstone were encountered in Trenches Number 7 and
8 at the north end of the site, and are thought to underlie the terrace deposits throughout the site. The
Torrey Sandstone materials consist mainly of gray to white, humid, dense, silty fine sand. The contact
between the Torrey Sandstone and the overlying terrace deposits was encountered at an approximate
elevation of 150 feet MSL in Trenches Number 7 and 8, and is likely to occur at similar elevations in
other areas of the site.
TECTONIC SETTING: No faults are known to exist within the general vicinity of the site. However,
it should be noted that much of Southern California, including San Diego County, is characterized by a
series of Quaternary-age fault zones which typically consist of several individual, en echelon faults that
generally strike in a northerly to northwesterly direction. Some of these fault zones (and the individual
faults within the zone) are classified as active while others are classified as only potentially active
according to the criteria of the California Division of Mines and Geology. Active fault zones are those
which have shown conclusive evidence of faulting during the Holocene Epoch (the most recent 11,000
years) while potentially active fault zones have demonstrated movement during the Pleistocene Epoch
(11,000 to 2 million years before the present) but no movement during Holocene time.
A review of available geologic maps indicates that the Rose Canyon Fault Zone is located approximately
five miles west of the site. Other faults zones in the region that could possibly affect the site include the
Coronado Bank and San Clemente Fault Zones to the west and the Elsinore and San Jacinto Fault Zones
to the northeast.
GEOLOGIC HAZARDS
GENERAL: The site is located in an area which is relatively free of potential geologic hazards. Specific
geologic hazards are discussed in the following sections of this report.
GROUNDSHAKING: One of the more likely geologic hazards to affect the site is ground shaking as
a result of movement along one of the major, active fault zones mentioned above. The maximum bedrock
accelerations that would be attributed to a maximum probable earthquake occurring along the nearest
portion of selected fault zones that could affect the site are summarized in the following Table I.

Probable ground shaking levels at the site could range from slight to moderate depending on such factors
as the magnitude of the seismic event and the distance to the epicenter. It is likely that the site will
experience the effects of at least one earthquake during the life of the proposed structure. Design
accelerations are generally two-thirds of the peak bedrock accelerations.
Construction in accordance with the minimum requirements of the Uniform Building Code, the Structural
Engineers Association of California lateral force design requirements, and the local governing agencies
should minimize potential damage due to seismic activity.
LIQUEFACTION: The materials at the site are not subject to liquefaction due to the relative dense
condition of the soils.
TSUNAMIS: Tsunamis are great sea waves produced by a submarine earthquake or volcanic eruption.
Due to the site's location, it is not subject to tsunamis.
SEICHES: Seiches are periodic oscillations in large bodies of water such as lakes, harbors, bays, or
reservoirs. No such large bodies of standing water are located in an area that could possibly affect the
subject site.
GROUND CRACKING AND SURFACE RUPTURE: Due to the lack of evidence of active faults
traversing the site, the risk of surface rupture from on-site faulting should be considered nominal.
Ground cracking caused by shaking from distant seismic sources is considered to be unlikely.
LANDSLIDING: The terrace deposits underlying the site are generally not susceptible to landsliding.
In our opinion the potential for deep-seated slope instability is relatively minor.

GROUNDWATER: Groundwater was encountered in Trenches Number 2,3 and 8. The groundwater
observed in Trench Number 8 occurred at a depth of approximately 2.5 feet below the surface, and is
most likely associated with the natural drainage course near Sparta Drive. It is likely that similar
groundwater conditions exist throughout the low-lying, northeast corner of the site. The groundwater
seepage observed in Trench Number 2 was relatively light and highly localized, and is most likely
associated with infiltration of surface rainwater. The groundwater seepage observed in Trench Number
3 was relatively heavy, but appeared to be limited to a utility trench which was encountered in that area.
The source of this water is not known, but appears to be a localized phenomenon. Recommendations for
mitigating potential adverse effects from groundwater are presented in a later section of this report.

GENERAL
In general, no geotechnical conditions were encountered which would preclude the development of the
site as presently proposed, provided the recommendations presented herein are followed. The main
geotechnical considerations for site development are the presence of compressible fill, surficial and
formational soils, expansive soils and isolated water seepage areas.
An additional consideration is
proposed cut/fill transition for the building pad. Each of these conditions is discussed below.
COMPRESSIBLE SOILS: The site is underlain by a relatively thin layer of compressible fill and
topsoil deposits. Fill soils were encountered at the northern and central portions of the site. The
fill extends to a maximum estimated depth of ten feet. In both cases the fill depth decreases rapidly
to the south. As encountered in our trenches, the topsoil deposits extend to a combined maximum
and average depth of about four feet and two feet to below existing grade, respectively. These
materials are considered unsuitable in their present condition for the support of settlement sensitive
improvements and will require removal and replacement as compacted fill in areas where settlement
sensitive improvements are proposed. In addition, the terrace deposits underlying the surficial soils
typically possess pockets and layers of friable soils and/or soils potentially collapsible upon
saturation. In order to provide a more-uniform foundation soil condition, it is recommended that
terrace deposits underlying the proposed buildin~ pad be partially removed as recommended in the
site preparation portion of this report. This recommendation will also eliminate the cut/fill
configuration of the proposed building pad.

EXPANSIVE SOILS: A layer of moderately to highly expansive subsoils was encountered in
Trench Numbers 1 through 5. These deposits underlie the fill and topsoil and attain a thickness of
about one foot. It is recommended that subsoil deposits within four feet from finish grade be
exported from the site.
WATER SEEPAGE: Water seepage was encountered in Trench Numbers 3 and 8. In Trench
Number 3 the seepage was observed within a loosely backfilled utility trench. In Trench Number
8 the seepage was encountered at the contact between existing fill and topsoil deposits. Due to the
granular characteristics of the on site soils the presence of future seepage conditions should be

anticipated. It is therefore recommended that a subdrain be placed along the southern edge of the
proposed building pad. This recommendation is further discussed in the site preparation portion of
the report. Additional subdrains may be required based on conditions encountered during grading.
RECOMMENDATIONS
GRADING
SITE PREP ARA TION: Site preparation should begin with the demolition of existing improvements and
the removal of the resulting debris as well as existing vegetation and deleterious matter. Existing fill and
topsoil underlying proposed fill areas and settlement-sensitive improvements should be removed to firm
natural ground (exterior patios, parking and driveway areas included). Based on our findings, it is
anticipated that maximum and average topsoil removal depth will be about four feet, and two feet,
respectively. Maximum fill removal depth will be about ten feet. In addition, terrace deposits within
five feet from finish pad grade should be removed. Removal limits should extend at least five feet
beyond the perimeter of the improvements or to property line, whichever is less. Removals along the
portion of the western property line where a retaining wall exists should be limited to six feet from said
wall. The soils exposed at the bottom of the excavations should be scarified to a depth of 12 inches,
moisture conditioned and compacted to at least 90 percent as determined in accordance with ASTM D-
1557-91, Method A or C. The removed soils and/or soils obtained from on-site excavations may then
be placed in thin compacted layers until desired elevations are reached.
EXISTING FILL: The existing fill in Trench Number 8 was found to contain trash and have a moderate
unidentified odor. It is recommended that this material be exported from the site.

EXPANSIVE SOILS: A one-foot-thick layer of expansive soils was encountered underlying the fill
and/or topsoil in Trench Numbers 1 through 5. It is recommended that expansive soils within four feet
from finish building pad grade, and two feet from finish parking lot and driveway subgrade be removed
and exported from the site as part of the proposed export to balance the site earthwork.
UTILITY AND EXPLORATORY TRENCH EXCA V A TIONS: It is recommended that the backfill
soils of existing utility and exploratory trenches be removed and replaced as compacted fill.
SUBDRAIN: It is recommended that a subdrain be installed along the southern edge of removal near
the property line. The preliminary subdrain location and a typical detail are provided on Plates Number
1 and 16. Additional subdrains may be recommended based on the conditions encountered during
grading.
SURF ACE DRAINAGE: It is recommended that all surface drainage be directed away from the
proposed improvements and the top of slopes. Ponding of water should not be allowed adjacent to
foundations. Rain gutters are recommended. Rain gutters should be connected to appropriate drainage
devices.
EARTHWORK: All earthwork and grading contemplated for site preparation should be accomplished
in accordance with the attached Recommended Grading Specifications and Special Provisions. All special
site preparation recommendations presented in the sections above will supersede those in the standard
Recommended Grading Specifications. All embankments, structural fill and fill should be compacted to
at least 90 percent relative compaction at or slightly over optimum moisture content. Utility trench
backfill within five feet of the proposed structures and beneath asphalt pavements should be compacted
to a minimum of 90 percent of its maximum dry density. The upper twelve inches of subgrade beneath
paved areas should be compacted to 95 percent of its maximum dry density. This compaction should be
obtained by the paving contractor just prior to placing the aggregate base material and should not be part
of the mass grading requirements. The maximum dry density of each soil type should be determined in
accordance with ASTM Test D-1557-91, Method A or C.
SLOPE STABILITY
GENERAL: Although no significant slopes are anticipated, it is our opinion that cut and/or fill slopes
constructed at a 2: 1 (horizontal to vertical) or flatter inclination will possess an adequate factor-of-safety
with respect to deep seated rotational failure.

SPECIAL CONDITIONS: It is anticipated that an existing off-site natural slope located adjacent to the
central eastern portion of the site will be improved as part of this project. The slope is near vertical and
extends to a height of about ten feet. A drainage swale exists at the toe of the slope. It is recommended
that the slQpe be fiatlelled to at 1 :5_:1. (horizontalt~~~!-~i~é~ll.Q!:Jlatter inclination. The toe of the slope
should be protected from water erosion by the placement of riprap or gunite. Specific recommendations
should be provided by a civil engineer with expertise in hydraulics.
FOUNDATIONS
GENERAL: Shallow foundations may be utilized for the support of the proposed improvements. The
footings should have a minimum depth of 18 inches below lowest adjacent finish pad grade. A minimum
width of 12 inches and 24 inches is recommended for continuous and isolated footings, respectively. A
bearing capacity of 2500 psf may be assumed for said footings. This bearing capacity may be increased
by one-third when considering wind and/or seismic forces. Footings located adjacent to or within slopes
should be extended to a depth such that a minimum horizontal distance of seven feet exists between the
top of the footing and the face of the slope. Retaining walls in similar conditions should be reviewed by
this office.
REINFORCEMENT: Both exterior and interior continuous footings should be reinforced with at least
one No.5 bar positioned near the bottom of the footing and at least one No.5 bar positioned near the
top of the footing. This reinforcement is based on soil characteristics and is not intended to be in lieu of
reinforcement necessary to satisfy structural considerations.
FOUNDATION EXCAVATION OBSERVATION: It is recommended that all foundation excavations
be approved by a representative from this office prior to forming or placement of reinforcing steel.
SETTLEMENT CHARACTERISTICS: The anticipated total and/or differential settlements for the
proposed improvements may be considered to be within tolerable limits provided the recommendations
presented in this report are followed. It should be recognized that minor cracks normally occur in
concrete slabs and foundations due to shrinkage during curing or redistribution of stresses and some
cracks may be anticipated. Such cracks are not necessarily an indication of excessive vertical movements.

SLABS-ON-GRADE
INTERIOR CONCRETE SLABS-ON-GRADE: Concrete floor slabs have a thickness of four inches
and be reinforced with at least No.3 reinforcing bars placed at 18 inches on center each way. Slab
reinforcement should be placed approximately at mid-height of the slab. The slab should be underlain
by a four-inch blanket of clean, poorly graded, coarse sand or crushed rock. This blanket should consist
of 100 percent material passing the two-inch screen and no more than ten percent and five percent passing
#100 and #200 sieve, respectively. Where moisture-sensitive floor coverings are plar...ned, a visqueen
barrier should be placed over the sand layer. To allow for proper concrete curing, the visqueen should
be overlain by at least one inch of sand.
GRADING AND FOUNDATION PLAN REVIEW
The grading and foundation plans should be submitted to this office for review to ascertain that the
recommendations contained in this report are implemented and no revised recommendations are necessary
due to changes in the development scheme.
EARTH RETAINING WALLS
FOUNDATIONS: The recommendations presented in the foundation section of this report are also
applicable to earth retaining structures.
PASSIVE PRESSURE: The passive pressure for the prevailing soil conditions may be considered to
be 350 pounds per square foot per foot of depth up to a maximum of 1500 psf. This pressure may be
increased one-third for seismic loading. The coefficient of friction for concrete to soil may be assumed
to be 0.35 for the resistance to lateral movement. When combining frictional and passive resistance, the
friction should be reduced by one-third. The upper 12 inches of soil should not be considered when
calculating passive pressures for exterior walls.
ACTIVE PRESSURE: The active soil pressure for the design of unrestrained earth retaining structures
with level backfills may be assumed to be equivalent to the pressure of a fluid weighing 33 pounds per
cubic foot. For restrained walls an equivalent fluid pressure of 48 pcf may be assumed. These pressures
do not consider any other surcharge loads. If any are anticipated, this office should be contacted for the
necessary increase in soil pressure. This value assumes a granular and drained backfill condition.

Waterproofing specifications and details should be provided by the project architect. A typical wall
subdrain detail is provided on the attached Plate Number 16.
WATERPROOFING AND SUBDRAIN OBSERVATION:
The geotechnical engmeer should be
requested to verify that waterproofing has been applied and that the subdrain has been properly installed.
However, unless specifically asked to do so, we will not verify proper application of the waterproofing.
BACKFILL: All backfill soils should be compacted to at least 90% relative compaction. Expansive or
clayey soils should not be used for backfill material. The wall should not be backfilled until the masonry
has reached an adequate strength.
FACTOR OF SAFETY: The above values, with the exception of the allowable soil bearing pressure,
do not include a factor of safety. Appropriate factors of safety should be incorporated into the design to
prevent the walls from overturning and sliding.
LIMIT A TIONS
REVIEW, OBSERV A TION AND TESTING
The recommendations presented in this report are contingent upon our reVIew of final plans and
specifications. Such plans and specifications should be made available to the geotechnical engineer and
engineering geologist so that they may review and verify their compliance with this report and with
Chapter 70 of the Uniform Building Code.
It is recommended that Southern California Soil & Testing, Inc. be retained to provide continuous soil
engineering services during the earthwork operations. This is to verify compliance with the design
concepts, specifications or recommendations and to allow design changes in the event that subsurface
conditions differ from those anticipated prior to start of construction.
UNIFORMITY OF CONDITIONS
The recommendations and opinions expressed in this report reflect our best estimate of the project
requirements based on an evaluation of the subsurface soil conditions encountered at the subsurface
exploration locations and on the assumption that the soil conditions do not deviate appreciably from those
encountered. It should be recognized that the performance of the foundations and/or cut and fill slopes
I

may be influenced by undisclosed or unforeseen variations in the soil conditions that may occur in the
intermediate and unexplored areas. Any unusual conditions not covered in this report that may be
encountered during site development should be brought to the attention of the geotechnical engineer so
that he may make modifications if necessary.

This office should be advised of any changes in the project scope or proposed site grading so that we may
determine if the recommendations contained herein are appropriate. This should be verified in writing
or modified by a written addendum.
TIME LIMITATIONS
The findings of this report are valid as of this date. Changes in the condition of a property can, however,
occur with the passage of time, whether they be due to natural processes or the work of man on this or
adjacent properties. In addition, changes in the Standards-of-Practice and/or Government Codes may
occur. Due to such changes, the findings of this report may be invalidated wholly or in part by changes
beyond our control. Therefore, this report should not be relied upon after a period of two years without

PROFESSIONAL STANDARD
In the performance of our professional services, we comply with that level of care and skill ordinarily
exercised by members of our profession currently practicing under similar conditions and in the same
locality. The client recognizes that subsurface conditions may vary from those encountered at the
locations where our borings, surveys, and explorations are made, and that our data, interpretations, and
recommendations be based solely on the information obtained by us. We will be responsible for those
data, interpretations, and recommendations, but shall not be responsible for the interpretations by others
of the information developed. Our services consist of professional consultation and observation only, and
no warranty of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, is made or intended in connection with the work
performed or to be performed by us, or by our proposal for consulting or other services, or by our
furnishing of oral or written reports or findings.

CLIENT'S RESPONSIBILITY
It is the responsibility of Sunland Home Foundation, or their representatives to ensure that the
information and recommendations contained herein are brought to the attention of the structural engineer
I
I
I
and architect for the project and incorporated into the project's plans and specifications. It is further their
responsibility to take the necessary measures to insure that the contractor and their subcontractors carry
out such recommendations during construction.
FIELD EXPLORATIONS
Eight subsurface explorations were made at the locations indicated on the attached Plate Number 1 on
February 6, 1997. These explorations consisted of trenches excavated with a backhoe. The field work
I
I
I
was conducted under the observation of our engineering geology personnel.
The subsurface explorations were carefully logged when made. These logs are presented on the following
Plates Number 3 through 10. The soils are described in accordance with the Unified Soils Classification
I
System as illustrated on the attached simplified chart on Plate Number 2. In addition, a verbal textural
description, the wet color, the apparent moisture and the density or consistency are provided. The
density of granular soils is given as either very loose, loose, medium dense, dense or very dense. The
consistency of silts or clays is given as either very soft, soft, medium stiff, stiff, very stiff, or hard.
I
I
I
Disturbed and undisturbed samples of typical and representative soils were obtained and returned to the
laboratory for testing.
LABORATORY TESTING
I
I
I
I
I
Laboratory tests were performed in accordance with the generally accepted American Society for Testing
and Materials (ASTM) test methods or suggested procedures. A brief description of the tests performed
is presented below:
a)
CLASSIFICATION:
Field classifications were verified in the laboratory by visual
examination. The final soil classifications are in accordance with the Unified Soil Classifica-
tion System.

b)
MOISTURE-DENSITY: In-place moisture contents and dry densities were determined for
representative soil samples. This information was an aid to classification and permitted
recognition of variations in material consistency with depth. The dry unit weight is determined
in pounds per cubic foot, and the in-place moisture content is determined as a percentage of
the soil's dry weight. The results are summarized in the trench logs.
c)
GRAIN SIZE DISTRIBUTION:
The grain size distribution was determined from
representative samples of the native soils in accordance with ASTM D422. The results of
these tests are presented on Plate Number 11.
d)
COMPACTION TEST: The maximum dry density and optimum moisture content of a
typical soil as determined in the laboratory in accordance with ASTM Standard Test D-1557-
78, Method A. The results of this test are presented on Plate Number 12.
e)
EXPANSION INDEX TEST:
Expansion index tests were performed on representative
samples of soils likely to be present at finish grade. The tests were performed on the portion
of the sample passing the #4 standard sieve. The samples were brought to optimum moisture
content then dried back to a constant moisture content then dried back to a constant moisture
content for 12 hours at 230 + 9 degrees Fahrenheit. The specimen were then compacted in
a 4-inch-diameter mold in two equal layers by means of a tamper, then trimmed to a final
height of 1 inch, and brought to a saturation of approximately 50 percent. The specimen were
placed in a consolidometer with porous stones at the top and bottom, a total normal load of
12.63 pounds was placed (144.7 pst), and the samples were allowed to consolidate for a period
of 10 minutes. The samples were allowed to become saturated, and the change in vertical
movement was recorded until the rate of expansion became nominal. The ex;>ansion index of
each sample tested is reported on the attached Plate Number 12 as the total vertical
displacement times the fraction of the sample passing the #4 sieve times 1000.

t)
DIRECT SHEAR TESTS: A direct shear test was performed to determine the failure
envelope based on yield shear strength. The shear box was designed to accommodate a
sample having a diameter of 2.375 inches or 2.50 inches and a height of 1.0 inch.
Samples were tested at different vertical loads and a saturated moisture content. The shear
stress was applied at a constant rate of strain of approximately 0.05 inch per minute. The
results of this test are presented on the attached Plate Number 13.
g)
CONSOLIDATION TESTS: Single point consolidation tests were performed on selected
"undisturbed" samples. The consolidation apparatus was designed to accommodate a 1-
inch high by 2.375-inch or 2.500-inch diameter soil sample laterally confined by a brass
ring. Porous stones were placed in contact with the top and bottom of the sample to
permit the addition or release of pore fluid during testing. Selected loads were applied to
the samples and the resulting deformations were recorded. The percent consolidation is
reported as the ratio of the amount of vertical compression to the original sample height.
The test samples were inundated to determine their behavior under the anticipated loads
as soil moisture increases. The results of these tests are presented on Plate Number 14.

RECOMMENDED GRADING SPECIFICATIONS - GENERAL PROVISIONS
GENERAL INTENT
The intent of these specifications is to establish procedures for clearing, compacting natural ground,
preparing areas to be filled, and placing and compacting fill soils to the lines and grades shown on the
accepted plans. The recommendations contained in the preliminary geotechnical investigation report
and/or the attached Special provisions are a part of the Recommended Grading Specifications and shall
supersede the provisions contained hereinafter in the case of conflict. These specifications shall only be
used in conjunction with the geotechnical report for which they are a part. No deviation from these
specifications will be allowed, except where specified in the geotechnical report or in other written
communication signed by the Geotechnical Engineer.
OBSERV A TION AND TESTING
Southern California Soil & Testing, Inc., shall be retained as the Geotechnical Engineer to observe and
test the earthwork in accordance with these specifications. It will be necessary that the Geotechnical
Engineer or his representative provide adequate observation so that my may provided his opinion as to
whether or not the work was accomplished as specified. It shall be the responsibility of the contractor
to assist the Geotechnical Engineer and to keep him appraised of work schedules, changes and new
information and data so that he may provided these opinions. In the event that any unusual conditions
not covered by the special provisions or preliminary geotechnical report are encountered during the
grading operations. The Geotechnical Engineer shall be contacted for further recommendations.
If, in the opinion of the Geotechnical Engineer, substandard conditions are encountered, such as
questionable or unsuitable soil, unacceptable moisture content, inadequate compaction, adverse weather,
etc.; construction should be stopped until the conditions are remedied or corrected or he shall
recommended rejection of this work.
Tests used to detennine the degree of compaction should be performed in accordance with the following
American Society for Testing and Materials test methods:

Appendix, Page 2
Maximum Density & Optimum Moisture Content - ASTM D-1557-91
Density of Soil In-Place - ASTM D-1556-90 or ASTM D-2922
All densities shall be expressed in tenns of Relative Compaction as detennined by the foregoing ASTM
testing procedures.
PREPARATION OF AREAS TO RECEIVE FILL
All vegetation, brush and debris derived from clearing operations shall be removed, and legally disposed
of. All areas disturbed by site grading should be left in a neat and finished appearance, free from
unsightly debris.
After clearing or benching the natural ground, the areas to be filled shall be scarified to a depth of 6
inches, brought to the proper moisture content, compacted and tested for the specified minimum degree
of compaction. All loose soils in excess of 6 inches thick should be removed to firm natural ground
which is defined as natural soils which possesses an in-situ density of at least 90 percent of its maximum
dry density.
When the slope of the natural ground receiving fill exceeds 20 percent (5 horizontal units to 1 vertical
unit), the original ground shall be stepped or benched. Benches shall be cut to a finn competent
formational soils. The lower bench shall be at least 10 feet wide or 1-1/2 times the equipment width,
whichever is greater, and shall be sloped back into the hillside at a gradient of not less than two (20
percent. All other benches should be at least 6 feet wide. The horizontal portion of each bench shall be
compacted prior to receiving fill as specified herein for compacted natural ground. Ground slopes flatter
than 20 percent shall be benched when considered necessary by the Geotechnical Engineer.
Any abandoned buried structures encountered during grading operations must be totally removed. All
underground utilities to be abandoned beneath any proposed structure should be removed from within 10
feet of the structure and properly capped off. The resulting depressions from the above described
procedure should be backfilled with acceptable soil that is compacted to the requirements of the
Geotechnical Engineer. This includes, but is not limited to, septic tanks, fuel tanks, sewer lines or leach
lines, stonn drains and water lines. Any buried structures or utilities no to be abandoned should be
brought to the attention of the Geotechnical Engineer so that he may determine if any special
recommendation will be necessary.

All water wells which will be abandoned should be backfilled and capped in accordance to the
requirements set forth by the Geotechnical Engineer. The top of the cap should be at least 4 feet below
finish grade or 3 feet below the bottom of footing whichever is greater. The type of cap will depend on
the diameter of the well and should be determined by the Geotechnical Engineer and/or a qualified
Structural Engineer.
FILL MATERIAL
Materials to be placed in the fill shall be approved by the Geotechnical Engineer and shall be free of
vegetable matter and other deleterious substances. Granular soil shall contain sufficient fine material to
fill the voids. The definition and disposition of oversized rocks and expansive or detrimental soils are
covered in the geotechnical report or Special Provisions. Expansive soils, soils of poor gradation, or soils
with low strength characteristics may be thoroughly mixed with other soils to provide satisfactory fill
material, but only with the explicit consent of the Geotechnical Engineer. Any import material shall be
approved by the Geotechnical Engineer before being brought to the site.
PLACING AND COMPACTION OF FILL
Approved fill material shall be placed in areas prepared to receive fill in layers not to exceed 6 inches
in compacted thickness. Each layer shall have a uniform moisture content in the range that will allow
the compaction effort to be efficiently applied to achieve the specified degree of compaction. Each layer
shall be uniformly compacted to the specified minimum degree of compaction with equipment of adequate
size to economically compact the layer. Compaction equipment should either be specifically designed
for soil compaction or of proven reliability. The minimum degree of compaction to be achieved is
specified in either the Special Provisions or the recommendations contained in the preliminary
geotechnical investigation report.
When the structural fill material includes rocks, no rocks will be allowed to nest and all voids must be
carefully filled with soil such that the minimum degree of compaction recommended in the Special
Provisions is achieved. The maximum size and spacing of rock permitted in structural fills and in non-
structural fills is discussed in the geotechnical report, when applicable.
Field observation and compaction tests to estimate the degree of compaction of the fill will be taken by
the Geotechnical Engineer or his representative. The location and frequency of the tests shall be at the
Geotechnical Engineer's discretion. When the compaction test indicates that a particular layer is at less
I
I
I
I
SCS&T 9711028
March 13, 1997
Appendix, Page 4
than the required degree of compaction, the layer shall be reworked to the satisfaction of the Geotechnical
Engineer and until the desired relative compaction has been obtained.
I
I
I
Fill slopes shall be compacted by means of sheepsfoot rollers or other suitable equipment. Compaction
by sheepsfoot roller shall be at vertical intervals of not greater than four feet. In addition, fill slopes at
a ratio of two horizontal to one vertical or flatter, should be trackrolled. Steeper fill slopes shall be over-
built and cut-back to finish contours after the slope has been constructed. Slope compaction operations
shall result in all fill material six or more inches inward from the finished face of the slope having a
relative compaction of at least 90 percent of maximum dry density or the degree of compaction specified
in the Special Provisions section of this specification. The compaction operation on the slopes shall be
continued until the Geotechnical Engineer is of the opinion that the slopes will be surficially stable.
I
I
I
Density tests in the slopes will be made by the Geotechnical Engineer during construction of the slopes
to determine if the required compaction is being achieved. Where failing tests occur or other field
problems arise, the Contractor will be notified that day of such conditions by written communication from
the Geotechnical Engineer or his representative in the form of a daily field report.
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
If the method of achieving the required slope compaction selected by the Contractor fails to produce the
necessary results, the Contractor shall rework or rebuild such slopes until the required degree of
compaction is obtained, at no cost to the Owner or Geotechnical Engineer.
CUT SLOPES
The Engineering Geologist shall inspect cut slopes excavated in rock or lithified formational material
during the grading operations at intervals determined at his discretion. If any conditions not anticipated
in the preliminary report such as perched water, seepage, lenticular or confined strata of a potentially
adverse nature, unfavorably inclined bedding, joints or fault planes are encountered during grading" these
conditions shall be analyzed by the Engineering Geologist and Soil Engineer to determine if mitigating
measures are necessary.
Unless otherwise specified in the geotechnical report, no cut slopes shall be excavated higher or steeper
than the allowed by the ordinances of the controlling governmental agency.

ENGINEERING OBSERVATION
Field observation by the Geotechnical Engineer or his representative shall be made during the filling and
compaction operations so that he can express his opinion regarding the conformance of the grading with
acceptable standards of practice. Neither the presence of the Geotechnical Engineer or his representative
or the observation and testing shall not release the Grading Contractor from his duty to compact all fill
material to the specified degree of compaction.
SEASON LIMITS
Fill shall not be placed during unfavorable weather conditions. When work is interrupted by heavy rain,
filling operations shall not be resumed until the proper moisture content and density of the fill materials
can be achieved. Damaged site conditions resulting from weather or acts of God shall be repaired before
acceptance of work.
RECOMMENDED GRADING SPECIFICATIONS - SPECIAL PROVISIONS
RELATIVE COMPACTION: The minimum degree of compaction to be obtained in compacted natural
ground, compacted fill, and compacted backfill shall be at least 90 percent. For street and parking lot
subgrade, the upper six inches should be compacted to at least 95 percent relative compaction.
EXPANSIVE SOILS: Detrimentally expansive soil is defined as clayey soil which has an expansion
index of 50 or greater when tested in accordance with the Unifonn Building Code Standard 29-c.
OVERSIZED MATERIAL: Oversized fill material is generally defined herein as rocks or lumps of soil
over 6 inches in diameter. Oversized materials should not be placed in fill unless recommendations of
placement of such material is provided by the geotechnical engineer. At least 40 percent of the fill soils
shall pass through a No.4 U.S. Standard Sieve.
TRANSITION LOTS: Where transitions between cut and fill occur within the proposed building pad,
the cut portion should be undercut a minimum of one foot below the base of the proposed footings and
recompacted as structural backfill. In certain cases that would be addressed in the geotechnical report,
special footing reinforcement or a combination of special footing reinforcement and undercutting may be
required.

Summary of Field Observations and Tests for Relative Compaction, Group Care
Home, 691 Sparta Drive, Leucadia, California.
REFERENCE:
"Report of Geotechnical Investigation, Group Care Facility;" Southern California
Soil and Testing, Inc.; March 13, 1997.
Gentlemen:
In accordance with your request, this report has been prepared to summarize the results of field
observations and tests for relative compaction performed at the subject site by Southern California
Soil and Testing, Inc. These services were performed between August 7 and September 4, 1997.
SITE DESCRIPTION
The project site is located south of and adjacent to Sparta Drive in the Leucadia area of Encinitas,
California. The site was occupied by a number of greenhouses, commercial structures, and
associated improvements, and except for Sparta Drive it is bordered by developed commercial lots
on all sides. The original site topography generally sloped gently to moderately downward toward
the northwest. Maximum topographic relief was approximately 30 feet, with elevations ranging
from 148 to 178 feet (MSL). Much of the site's eastern property line is bordered by a steep cut
slope which descends to the level of the adjacent property to the east, while a portion of the western
property line is delineated by a six-foot-high retaining wall separating the site from the lower
property to the west. A fill-over-cut slope with variable gradients was present in the central portion
of the site and separated a nearly level pad area in the northwest corner of the property from the
gently to moderately sloping area in the southeast portion of the site. Vegetation consisted primarily
of native grasses and weeds, shrubs and a few large trees.

PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
It is our understanding that the site will be developed to receive a single-story, 20-room, 15,493-
square-foot group care facility and related improvements. The structure will be of wood-frame
construction. Shallow foundations and a conventional slab-on-grade floor system are proposed.
Grading will consist of cuts and fills of less than about seven feet and four feet from existing grades,
respectively.
A V AILABLE PLANS
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
To assist in determining the locations and elevations of our field density tests and to define the
general extent of the site grading for this phase of work, we were provided with a grading plan
prepared by Tri-Dimensional Engineering, Inc., dated July 21, 1997.
SITE PREPARATION
Site preparation began with the removal of existing fill deposits and compressible natural soils at
the northwestern corner of the site. These deposits were removed until dense natural soils (older
alluvium and/or terrace deposits) were encountered. The removed soils were stockpiled for future
use. The bottom of the removal area was observed by a representative from this office. The depths
and limits of the removals are shown on the attached Plate Number 1.
The bottom of the removal areas was scarified, moisture conditioned and compacted to at least 90
percent. The soils removed were then replaced in thin compacted layers until desired grades were
achieved. Site preparation operations continued in a similar fashion as previously described.
Throughout the site the unsuitable surface soils were removed until terrace deposits were
encountered.
Due to the presence of existing improvements, the removal operations at the
northwestern corner of the site were limited as shown on Plate Number 1.
The construction of the proposed fill slope between the proposed building pad and parking lot
required cutting a keyway as shown on Plate Number 1. The fill was benched into the firm natural
ground as the slope height increased. Existing unsuitable soils underlying the proposed building
pad were also removed. In addition, terrace deposits within five feet from finish pad grade were
undercut.

SUBDRAIN
The proposed storm drain trenches surrounding the proposed structure were utilized as part of a
subdrain system to mitigate the potential for water build-up underneath the proposed building pad.
The combination storm drainlsubdrain system is shown on the attached Plate Number 4.
EXISTING UNDERGROUND TANK
An existing underground tank was removed prior to the start of grading operations. The excavation
was backfilled with a two sack lean concrete mix to an elevation of about four feet from finish pad
grade. The approximate location of the excavation is shown on Plate Number 1.
FIELD OBSERVATION AND TESTING
Field observation and density tests were performed by a representative of Southern California Soil
and Testing, Inc. during the mass grading operations. The density tests were taken according to
ASTM D2922-91 (nuclear gauge). The results of those tests are shown on the attached plates. The
accuracy of the in-situ density test locations and elevations is a function of the accuracy of the
survey control provided by other than Southern California Soil and Testing, Inc. representatives.
Unless otherwise noted, their locations and elevations were determined by pacing and hand level
methods and should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the method used.
As used herein, the term "observation" implies only that we observed the progress of work we
agreed to be involved with, and performed tests, on which, together, we based our opinion as to
whether the work essentially complies with the job requirements, local grading ordinances and the
Uniform Building Code.
LABORATORY TESTS
Maximum dry density determinations were performed on representative samples of the soils used
in the compacted fills according to ASTM DI557-91, Method A. This method specifies that a four
(4) inch diameter cylindrical mold of 1/30 cubic foot volume be used and that the soil tested be
placed in five (5) equallayers with each layer compacted by twenty-five (25) blows of a la-pound
hammer with an IS-inch drop. The results of these tests, as presented on Plate Number 3, were
I
I
I
I
SCS&T 9711028

used in conjunction with the field density tests to determine the degree of relative compaction of the
compacted fill.
REMAINING WORK
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
Additional grading and backfill operations will be required for the backfilling of utility trenches and
retaining walls and the preparation of the subgrade and base material placement in the parking areas.
It is recommended that field observations and relative compaction tests be performed during these
operations to verify that these operations are performed in accordance with job requirements and
local grading ordinances.
CONCLUSIONS
Based on our field observations and the in-place density test results, it is the opinion of Southern
California Soil and Testing, Inc. that the grading work was performed substantially in accordance
with the recommendations contained in the referenced geotechnical report, the City of Encinitas
grading ordinance, and the Uniform Building Code. Recommendations for the minimum design of
foundations, as presented in the referenced report, remain applicable.
FOUNDATIONS
GENERAL: Shallow foundations may be utilized for the support of the proposed structure. The
footings should have a minimum depth of 18 inches below lowest adjacent finish grade. A minimum
width of 12 inches and 24 inches is recommended for continuous and isolated footings, respectively.
A bearing capacity of 2500 psf may be assumed for said footings. This bearing capacity may be
increased by one-third when considering wind and/or seismic forces. Footings located adjacent to
or within slopes should be extended to a depth such that a minimum horizontal distance of seven feet
exists between the top of the footing and the face of the slope. Retaining walls in similar conditions
should be reviewed by this office.
REINFORCEMENT: Both exterior and interior continuous footings should be reinforced with at
least one No.5 bar positioned near the bottom of the footing and one No.5 bar positioned near the
top of the footing. This reinforcement is based on soil characteristics and is not intended to be in
lieu of reinforcement necessary to satisfy structural considerations.

FOUNDATION EXCA V A TION OBSERVATION: It is recommended that all foundation
excavations be approved by a representative from this office prior to forming or placement of
reinforcing steel.
EXPANSIVE CHARACTERISTICS:
The prevailing foundation soils are nondetrimentally
expansive. Recommendations contained in this report reflect this condition.
SETTLEMENT CHARACTERISTICS: The anticipated total and/or differential settlements for
the proposed structure may be considered to be within tolerable limits provided the recommenda-
tions presented in this report are followed. It should be recognized that minor cracks normally occur
in concrete slabs and foundations due to shrinkage during curing or redistribution of stresses and
some cracks may be anticipated. Such cracks are not necessarily an indication of excessive vertical

SLABS-ON-GRADE
Concrete floor slabs have a thickness of four inches and be reinforced with at least No.3 reinforcing
bars placed at 18 inches on center each way. Slab reinforcement should be placed approximately
at mid-height of the slab. The slab should be underlain by a four-inch blanket of clean, poorly
graded, coarse sand or crushed rock. This blanket should consist of 100 percent material passing
the 1/2-inch screen and no more than ten percent and five percent passing the #100 and #200 sieve,
respectively. Where moisture-sensitive floor coverings are planned, a visqueen barrier should be
overlain by at least one inch of sand.

OFFSITE FLOWS: The drainage basin collecting runoff that runs through an existing
drainage channel on the south side of Sparta Drive, then crosses under Sparta Drive via and
underground structure to the west then continues westerly in a grass-lined channel, encompasses
64 acres, referred to as drainage area 'X' (see Drainage Map 'A'). The offsite drainage area
that currently produces significant flows across the site encompasses an area of 32.6 acres,
referred to as drainage area' A'. Flows from area' A' currently pond on the adjacent property
in the northeast corner of the lot and sheet across this area. Off site flows are diverted around
the site on the east, south, and west sides of the lot. A concrete drainage channel is proposed
for the adjacent site and northeast corner of the lot to alleviate the problems caused by ponding,
erosion, and erratic flows. The design considers two major drainage basins, A. 1 and A. 2. The
analysis includes runoff from drainage area 'X minus A' to test for the adequacy of the existing
channel along Sparta Drive.
The Rational Method for computing storm water runoff was utilized.

DRAINAGE CHANNEL A.l:
A triangular concrete channel is preferred to handle flows from drainage area A.l. The
manning equation was used to detennine the flow velocity, depth and top width of the l00-year-
flow detennined in the Hydrology Study. The full results appear on the following data sheets
generated from a computer program utilizing the manning equation. The channel is designed
as a triangular concrete channel, with side slopes of 4:1 and 6:1, with a drain slope of 2%
(see grading and improvement plans).
DRAINAGE CHANNEL A.l + 2:
A trapezoidal concrete channel is preferred to handle flows from drainage area A.l + 2. The
manning equation was used to detennine the flow velocity, depth and top width of the l00-year-
flow detennined in the Hydrology Study. The full results appear on the following data sheets
generated from a computer program utilizing the manning equation. The channel is designed
as a trapezoidal concrete channel, with side slopes of 1.5:1, with a drain slope of 2% (see
grading and improvement plans).
DRAINAGE CHANNEL X-A:
The existing channel along Sparta drive (upstream from the Channel A.l + 2 connection) was
surveyed and detennined to have a cross section as shown on attached section 'X-A', at its
narrowest portion (see attached 'Sparta Drainage Channel'). The manning equation was used to
detennine the flow velocity, depth and top width of the l00-year-flow detennined in the
Hydrology Study. A minimum slope of 4.0% was detennined. The manning n used was 0.030
(as appears in Chaudhry, M. Hanif, Open Channel Flow, 1993, p. 83, clean and straight natural
channels with no appreciable rocks in the bed). The full results appear on the following data
sheets generated from a computer program utilizing the manning equation. The existing
channel is adequate to carry the existing 100-year flow of 29.0 cfs through the Sparta Drive
channel upstream from the concrete (D-70) connection (at a depth of 1.09 feet).
