Final As-Graded Report of Fine and Post Grading, Proposed Taco Bell Restaurant, 815
Birmingham Drive, Encinitas, California
Introduction
In accordance with your request and authorization, we have performed geotechnical observation and
testing services during the fine and post-grading operations for the Taco Bell Restaurant located at 815
Birmingham Drive in Encinitas, California. The purpose of our geotechnical observation and testing
services was to document that the fine and post-grading operations within the subject site were
performed in accordance with the project geotechnical reports (Leighton, 1997a and 1997b),
geotechnical recommendations made during the course of grading and the City of Encinitas
requirements.
This final as-graded report summarizes our geotechnical observations and field and laboratory test results
on the fill soils associated with up to 5 feet of removal and recompaction of fill soils across the site,
retaining wall construction and backfill, utility trench backfill and compaction operations; drive-thru and
parking lot subgrade soil and Class 2 aggregate base placement and compaction, and asphalt concrete
(A.C) placement in the parking lot. Portions of this report were previously summarized in the interim
report dated August 8, 1997 (Leighton, 1997b). As of the date of this report, the post-grading operations
of the subject site are essentially complete.

Summarv of Gradine Operations
.
Fine Gradine:
Fine grading operations were performed between July and August, 1997 and were discussed in our
interim report of fine grading (Leighton, 1997b) and are briefly summarized herein.
Fine grading of the subject property consisted of construction of a retaining wall around the east,
south and west perimeter of the site and removal and recompaction of up to 5 feet below finished
grade to achieve the design pad elevation. Once removed, the ground surface was scarified,
moisture-conditioned as needed to obtain a near optimum moisture content, and fill soils were placed
and recompacted to a minimum 90 percent relative compaction (based on ASTM Test Method
D 1557-96) to the design pad elevation.
Footing inspections and concrete testing were performed for the site retaining wall prior to fill
placement in the drive-thru area.
.
Post Gradine:
The post-grading operations began in September, 1997 and are essentially complete as of the date of
this report. Post-grading operations completed during the development of the Taco Bell Restaurant
included the following: 1) trench excavation and backfill compaction of sewer and joint utility lines;
2) drive-thru and parking lot subgrade soil preparation and compaction; and 3) Class 2 aggregate
base material placement and compaction in the drive-thru and parking lot areas; and 4) asphalt
concrete placement and compaction in the parking lot area. Compaction testing and observations
were performed by representatives of our firm who were on site as-needed during post-grading
operations. Specific observation and testing services conducted during the post-grading operations
included the following:
Field and Laboratorv Testine
Field density tests were performed during the placement of compacted fill, trench backfill, subgrade
preparation, placement of the crushed aggregate base material and asphalt concrete during fine- and post-
grading operations of the site. Density tests were performed in accordance with the Nuclear-Gauge
Method (ASTM Test Methods D2922-96 and D3017-96). The results and approximate locations of the
field density tests performed are summarized in Appendix B. Areas in which field density tests were less
than the required 90 or 95 percent relative compaction or were observed to be non-uniform, were
reworked, recompacted, and retested until the minimum 90 or 95 percent relative compaction was
achieved. In accordance with the City of Encinitas criteria, subgrade soils and Class 2 aggregate base
material for the drive-thru and parking lot and A.C. for the parking lot were compacted to a minimum 95
percent of the maximum dry density as determined by ASTM Test Method DI557-96.

.
Trench Excavations and Backfill
Underground utilities, including sewer and common joint utilities were placed during the
development of the site. Prior to backfilling of the utility trenches, the excavations were observed by
a representative from our firm.
Backfilling of the utility trenches was accomplished by compacting on site and import soils to a
minimum 90 percent relative compaction (based on ASTM Test Method DI557-96). Testing
frequency and locations were performed in general conformance with the City of Encinitas criteria.
The results and approximate location of the backfill tests are summarized in Appendix B.
.
Structural Pavement Section
Prior to placement of Class 2 aggregate base material, the subgrade soils were scarified to a
minimum depth of 12 inches, moisture-conditioned to near-optimum moisture content and
compacted to at least 95 percent relative compaction in the drive-thru and parking lot areas (based on
ASTM Test Method DI557-96). The aggregate base material placed on the site was compacted to a
minimum of95 percent of the maximum dry density (based on ASTM Test Method D1557-96). The
results and approximate location of the subgrade soil and base material density tests are summarized
in Appendix B.

Summarv of Conclusions
Based on the results of our as-needed observation and testing at the site, we provide the following
comments:
0 Geotechnical conditions encountered during fine and post grading were generally as anticipated.
0 Based on our observation and testing, fine- and post-grading operations were performed. in general
accordance with the project geotechnical recommendations and the current City of Encinitas
requirements. In our professional opinion, the geotechnical aspects of the development have been
evaluated and properly treated during fine and post grading.
0 Field density testing indicated that the fill soils and trench backfill soils on the site were compacted
to a minimum 90 percent relative compaction (based on ASTM Test Method DI557-96). Field
density testing also indicated that the drive-thru and parking lot sub grade and base materials, and
A.C. in the parking lot area were compacted to a minimum of 95 percent relative compaction (based
on ASTM Test Method DI557-96).
If you have any questions regarding our report, please do not hesitate to contact this office. We
appreciate this opportunity to be of service.

Subject:
Hydraulic Analysis for Taco Bell Site
Located at the South side of Binning ham Dr., East of the 1-5 Frwy.
Encinitas, California
Introduction / Basis of Analysis
The Hydraulic Analysis utilized in this study is based on Manning's equation, and Autocad/Softdesk
software was used for hydraulic calculations. Proposed flow was calculated using the Rational Method
as described in the San Diego County Design and Procedure Manual. The attached Hydrology Map
(see Exhibit 'A') shows the watershed area (0.52 acres) and drainage patterns of proposed conditions.
The runoff coefficient was assumed to be C=.9 (mostly impervious concrete / asphalt). Based on a 100
year storm, the rainfall intensity was detennined to be 4.2 (see shts 5/8 - 8/8). The proposed site
drains into a catch basin located on the southwest comer of the property, then into a concrete Brow
Ditch (see Exhibit 'A').
Calculations (see sheets 2/8 - 4/8)
Q(atPo'O.C.) = CIA = (0.9) x (4.2 in/hr) x (0.52 acres) = 1.9 cfs ... say 2.0 cfs
- For 12" pipe at 1%: Qmax= 3.83 cfs
2 cfs < 3.83 cfs
- For Type 'A' Brow Ditch (see sht 4/8):
For Q = 2 cfs, Depth offlow = 4"
4" < 12"
Conclusion
The 12" diameter pipe sloped at 1%, and the concrete V-ditch sloped at 62% will be sufficient to carry
the proposed runoff of a 100 year storm.

. Review of geotechnical literature pertaining to the general area of the site and geotechnical
reports pertaining specifically to the site. A list of the items reviewed is included in
Appendix A.
. Field reconnaissance of the site and general vicinity.
. Subsurface exploration consisting of the excavation, logging and sampling of 3 exploratory
borings to a maximum depth of 20 feet below existing grade. Logs of the borings are presented
in Appendix B.
. Laboratory testing of representative soil samples obtained during the subsurface exploration to
evaluate their pertinent engineering characteristics. Results of the laboratory tests are provided
in Appendix C.
. Geotechnical analysis of the data obtained.
. Preparation of this report presenting our findings, conclusions, and recommendations with
respect to the proposed development.

Site Description
The site is located southeast of the Interstate 5 and Birmingham Drive intersection, Encinitas,
California. Currently the site is occupied by a restaurant with asphalt parking and driveway areas.
A retaining wall is situated around the east, south and western perimeter of the site. In addition,
the site is flanked by a downward trending, 16 foot high slope to the south and west with a
retaining structure along the south toe of the slope.
Topographically, the site slopes gently downward toward the south with elevations ranging from
282 to 273 feet mean sea level (MSL).
Vegetation consists of a few mature trees in planter areas and ground cover on the slope surface.

Proposed Dev~lopme:1t
Based on our review of the preliminary 20-scale projects plans provided by Golden West Tacos,
Inc. dated December 9, 1996, we understand that the proposed development will consist of a one-
story Taco Bell restaurant with an approximate footprint area of 2,314 square feet. We anticipate
the structure to be wood-framed and founded on a reinforced concrete slab on grade floor at an
elevation of 276.8 feet. Other improvements include a retaining wall around the western and
southern perimeter of the drive-thru lane, and associated driveway and parking areas.
Minor grading is anticipated he import of soil required to raise the finished pad elevation
approximately 2 feet etáinin w t the tops of existing slopes are to be removed and replaced
as part of the new site evelfpment plans.

2.0 SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION AND LABORATORY TESTING
Our subsurface investigation at the site consisted of the excavation of 3 exploratory borings to a maximum
depth of approximately 20 feet below existing grade. The borings were logged by a representative of our
firm. The approximate locations of all borings are depicted on the Boring Location Map (Figure 2). Logs
of the borings are presented in Appendix B. Subsequent to logging and sampling the borings were
backfilled. ~
Appropriate laboratory testing was performed on representative soils collected during our subsurface
investigation. The laboratory testing included inplace moisture and density, hydrocollapse potential,
expansion potential, and soluble sulfate content. Brief descriptions of the laboratory test procedures and
the laboratory test results are presented in Appendix C.

3.0 SUMMARY OF GEOTECHNICAL CONDITIONS
3.1
Site Geology
As encountered during our investigation, the site is underlain by formational units consisting of
Terrace Deposits and fill soils. Descriptions of these units are presented below.
3.1.1
Terrace Deposits
Quaternary-aged Terrace Deposits locally underlie the site. The Terrace Deposits were
encountered at a depth of approximately 1 feet belúw ground surface (bgs) along the
eastern half of the site and approximately 10 feet bgs along the western half of the site.
As encountered during our investigation, these deposits generally consist of orange-red
brown, dense, silty fine- to medium-grained sandstone. Laboratory test results
(Appendix C) indicate a very low potential for hydrocollapse upon wetting.
3.1.2
Undocumented Fill
Undocumented fill overlies the Terrace Deposits at the site with an approximate thickness
of 2 feet over the eastern half of the site and increasing to a minimum of 10 feet over the
western half of the site. These soils consist of tan-brown, damp, medium dense to dense
silty sands. Laboratory test results (Appendix C), indicate a very low potential for
hydrocollapse upon wetting and a very low expansion potential.
3.2
GroundWater
Ground water was not encountered during our field study. Accordingly, we do not anticipate
ground water to be a constraint to near surface improvements. However, localized seeps may be
encountered during the wet season or as a result of irrigation leaks.
3.3
Faultinl:!: and Seismicity
Our discussion of faults on the site is prefaced with a discussion of California legislation and state
policies concerning the classification and land-use criteria associated with faults. By definition of
the California Mining and Geology Board, an active fault is a fault which has had surface
displacement within Holocene time (about the last 11,000 years). The State Geologist has defined
a POtentiallv active fault as any fault considered to have been active during Quaternary time (last
1,600,000 years). This definition is used in delineating Special Studies Zones as mandated by the
Alquist-Priolo Geologic Hazards Zones Act of 1972 and as subsequently revised in 1975, 1985,
1990, and 1992 (Hart, 1992). The intent of this act is to assure that unwise urban development
does not occur across the traces of active faults. The subject site is not located within any special
study zones as created by the Alquist-Priolo Act.
- 4-
4971006-001
Our review of availab1~ gto[úgic 1iLtl'b.ture ifJdi<.:âted that there are ílO knowll active ùl pot~Uí:ially
active faults that transect the subject site. Evidence of faulting on site was not encountered during
our investigation.
The location of the proposed development can be considered to lie within a seismically active
region, as can all of Southern California. The Rose Canyon fault zone which is located
approximately 3.7 miles to the west of the site is considered to have the most significant effect at
the site from a design standpoint. A maximum probable earthquake of Richter Magnitude of 5.9
on the fault could produce a peak horizontal ground acceleration of approximately 0.33g at the site
(Blake, 1995). .
3.4
Seismic Considerations
The principal seismic considerations for most structures in Southern California are surface rupturing
of fault traces, damage caused by ground shaking or seismically induced ground settlement. The
probability of damage due to ground rupture is considered minimal since active faults are not
known to cross the site. Lurching due to shaking from distant seismic events is not considered a
significant hazard, although it is a possibility throughout the Southern California region.
. Ground Shaking
The seismic hazard most likely to impact the site is ground shaking resulting from an earthquake
on one of the major regional faults. As discussed above, a maximum probable event of the
Rose Canyon fault zone (considered the design earthquake for this site) could produce a peak
horizontal ground acceleration at the site of 0.33g. The effects of seismic shaking can be
reduced by adhering to the most recent edition of the Uniform Building Code and the design
parameters of the Structural Engineers Association of California. ~
. Liauefaction
Liquefaction of cohesionless soils can be caused by strong vibratory motion due to earthquakes.
Research and historical data indicate that loose granular soils underlain by a near-surface ground
water table are most susceptible to liquefaction, while the stability of most silty clays and clays
is not adversely affected by vibratory motion. Due to the high density of the onsite Terrace
Deposits and fill soils, the potential for liquefaction and dynamic settlement at the site due to
the design earthquake is anticipated to be low.
- 5 -
4971006-00 I
4.0 CO;-";CLUSrONS
Based on the results of our geotechnical investigation, it our opinion that the proposed development is
feasible from a geotechnical standpoint provided the following conclusions and recommendations are
incorporated into the design and construction of the subject project.
The following is a summary of the geotechnical factors which may affect development of the site.
.
Based on our subsurface exploration and review of pertinent geotechnical reports, the site is underlain
by Terrace Deposits and undocumented fill soils.
.
A transition condition appears to exist at the site with shallow fill soils and near-surface formational
materials on the eastern half of the site and thicker fill materials on the western half of the site.
Grading remediation will be necessary.
. Laboratory test results and our previous experience in the area indicate the soils present on the site
have the following soil engineering characteristics:
- very low to low expansion potential
- negligible sulfate content
- high shear strength
. The existing onsite soils appear to be suitable for use as fill material provided they are free of organic
material, debris, and rock fragments larger than 6 inches in maximum dimension.
. Active or potentially active faults are not known to exist on the site.
. The maximum anticipated ground acceleration on the site due to the design earthquake on the Rose
Canyon fault zone of Richter Magnitude 5.9 is estimated to be O.33g.
.
Based on our evaluation, the potential for liquefaction and associated dynamic settlement at the site
due to the design earthquake event is considered low.

5.0 RECO~ÆMENDATIONS
5.1
Earthwork
We anticipate that earthwork at the site will consist of site preparation, excavation, and backfill.
We recommend that earthwork on the site be performed in accordance with the following
recommendations and the General Earthwork and Grading Specifications included in Appendix D.
In case of conflict, the following recommendations shall supersede those in Appendix D.
5.1.1
Site Preparation
Prior to grading, all areas to receive structural fill or engineered structures should be
cleared of surface and subsurface obstructions, including any existing debris, utilities,
asphalt and existing foundations/footings, aild stripped of vegetation. Removed vegetation
and debris should be properly disposed of off site. Holes resulting from removal of buried
obstructions which extend below finished site grades should be replaced with suitable
compacted fill material. All areas to receive fill and/or other surface improvements should
be scarified to a minimum depth of 6 inches, brought to near optimum moisture condition,
and recompacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction (based on ASTM Test Method
D1557-9l).
5.1.2
Excavations
Excavations of the onsite materials may generally be accomplished with conventional
heavy-duty earthwork equipment. It is not anticipated that oversized rock (i.e. rock with
maximum dimensions greater th~ 6 inches) will be generated during grading. However,
if oversized rock is encountered, it should be placed as fill in accordance with the details
presented in Appendix D.
Due to the relatively high density characteristics and coarse nature of the onsite soils,
temporary excavations such as utility trenches with vertical sides in the onsite soils should
remain stable for the period required to construct the utility, provided they are free of
adverse geologic conditions. However, in accordance with OSHA requirements,
excavations deeper that 5 feet should be shored or laid back to inclinations of 1: 1
(horizontal to vertical) if workers are to enter such excavations.
5.1.3
Fill Placement and Compaction
The onsite soils are generally suitable for use as compacted fill provided they are free of
organic material, debris, and rock fragments larger than 6 inches in maximum dimension.
All fill soils should be brought to near-optimum moisture conditions and compacted to
uniform lifts to at least 90 percent relative compaction based on laboratory standard ASTM
Test Method D1557-91. The optimum lift thickness required to produce a uniformly
- 7 -
4971006-001
compnctcd fill will dcpcad on the type and size of compaction equipment used. In
general, fill should be placed in lifts not exceeding 8 inches in thickness.
Placement and compaction of fill should be performed in general accordance with the
current City of Encinitas grading ordinances, sound construction practice, and the General
Earthwork and Grading Specifications for Rough Grading presented in Appendix D.
5.2
Removal and Recompaction
As indicated in our boring logs, a differential thickness of fill soils exists on site. Due to the
presence of the existing restaurant and asphalt concrete, we were unable to determine the exact
location of the transition between formational material and fill 'Soils. However, we anticipate it to
be near the center of the existing structure. We recommend that prior to the addition of fill soils,
a 3 foot removal and recompaction be accomplished below and within 10 feet of the perimeter of
the structure and proposed settlement-sensitive improvements. It should be noted that deeper
removals may be required and that the geotechnical consultant should observe the removal bottom
prior to placement of fill soils.
We also anticipate that minor grading will take place near the top of the slopes along the south and
west perimeter of the site as a result of removing the existing retaining structure and constructing
the new one. Therefore, we recommend that the 3 foot removal and recompaction below present
grade be performed along the top of slope where the new retaining structure will be constructed.
This removal shall be benched into competent material with a key at the bottom of the removal.
Appendix C provides standard details for key construction.
5.3
Slope Stability
Based on our professional experience in the area ~d knowledge of similar soils, it is our opinion
that the proposed 2: 1 (horizontal to vertical) or flatter slopes have an adequate factor-of-safety
against deep-seated stability provided the recommendations presented herein are incorporated into
the design and construction of the site. It should be noted that manufactured slopes on site may
be subject to rilling and erosion due to a granular nature of the onsite soils and should be
land~caped as soon as possible after site grading. Overwetting should be avoided.
5.4
Foundation Desi2l1
The onsite soils were tested to have a very low expansion potential. As a result, we provide the
following preliminary design recommendations for very low expansive soils. Final foundation
recommendations can be provided after expansion index testing of the finish grade soils exposed
at pad grade.
- 8-
5.4.1
5.4.2
4971006-001
Footing Design
It is anticipated that the proposed buildings will utilize a combination of continuous
perimeter footings and conventional interior isolated-spread footings for building support.
The following recommendations are based on the assumption that soils of very low
expansion potential (50 or less per UBC 18-I-B) will be in the upper 4 feet of pad grade.
This should be confirmed during grading by the geotechnical consultant and alternate
recommendations provided, if necessary. Footings bearing in competent natural soil
materials or properly compacted fill should extend a minimum of 18 inches below the
lowest adjacent grade. At this depth, footings may be designed using an allowable soil-
bearing value of 2,000 pounds per square foot (pst). The allowable soil-bearing pressure
may be increased by 500 psf for each additional foot of foundation embedment to a
maximum allowable-bearing pressure of 2,SÓO pounds psf. This value may be increased
by one-third for loads of short duration including wind or seismic forces. Continuous
perimeter footings should be reinforced by placing at least one No.5 rebar near the top
and one No.5 rebar near the bottom of the footing, and in accordance with the structural
engineer's requirements. We recommend a minimum width of 24 inches for isolated
spread-footings. Interior column footings should be structurally isolated from the floor
slab.
Floor Slab Design
All slabs should have a minimum thickness of 4 inches and be reinforced at slab midheight
with No.3 rebars at 18 inches on center (each way) or No.4 rebars at 24 inches center
(each way). Additional reinforcement and/or concrete thickness to accommodate specific
loading conditions should be evaluated by the structural engineer based on a modulus of
subgrade reaction of 100 kips per cubic foot. We emphasize that it is the responsibility
of the contractor to ensure that tþe slab reinforcement is placed at midheight of the slab.
Slabs should be underlain by a 2-inch layer of clean sand (S.E. greater than 30) to aid in
concrete curing, which is underlain by a 6-mil (or heavier) moisture barrier, which is, in
turn, underlain by a 2-inch layer of clean sand to act as a capillary break. All penetrations
and laps in the moisture barrier should be appropriately sealed. The spacing of crack-
control joints should be designed by the structural engineer. Our experience indicates that
use of reinforcement in slabs and foundations will generally reduce the potential for drying
and shrinkage crackiñg. However, some cracking should be expected as the concrete
cures. Minor cracking is considered normal; however, it is often aggravated by a high
cement ratio, high concrete temperature at the time of placement, small nominal aggregate
size and rapid moisture loss due to hot, dry and/or windy weather conditions during
placement and curing. Cracking due to temperature and moisture fluctuations can also be
expected. The use of low slump concrete (not exceeding 4 inches at the time of
placement) can reduce the potential for shrinkage cracking. Moisture barriers can retard,
but not eliminate moisture vapor movement from the underlying soils up through the slab.
We recommend that the floor coverings installer test the moisture vapor flux rate prior to
attempting application of the flooring. "Breathable" floor coverings should be considered
if the vapor flux rates are high.
- 9 -
4971006-001
5.5
F outing Setback
We recommend a minimum horizontal setback difference from the face of slopes for all structural
footings, retaining walls, and settlement-sensitive structures. This distance is measured from the
outside edge of the footing, horizontally to the slope face (or to the face of a retaining wall) and
should be a minimum of H/2, where H is the slope height. The setback should not be less than 7
feet and need not be greater than 10 feet. We should note that the soils within the structural
setback area possess poor lateral stability, and improvements (such as retaining walls, sidewalks,
fences, pavement, underground utilities, etc.) constructed within this setback area may be subject
to lateral movement and/or differential settlement.
5.6
Anticipated Settlement
JfÞ
The recommended allowable-bearing capacity is generally based on a maximum total and
differential (elastic) settlement of I inch and 3/4 inch, respectively Approximately one-half of this
settlement is anticipated to occur during construction. Actual settlement can be estimated on the
basis that settlement is roughly proportional to the net contact bearing pressure.
5.7
Expansive Soils
Based on laboratory testing of representative soils, the majority of the soils on site have a very low
expansion potential. Expansion testing of the actual soils placed at finish grade and
recommendations concerning potential expansive soils should be made after site grading has been
completed.
5.8
Retainine: Wall Design Considerations
Embedded structural walls should be designed for lateral earth pressures exerted on them. The
magnitude of these pressures depends on the amount of deformation that the wall can yield under
load. If the wall can yield enough to mobilize the full shear strength of the soil, it can be designed
for "active" pressure. If the wall cannot yield under the applied load, the shear strength of the soil
cannot be mobilized and the earth pressure will be higher. Such walls should be designed for "at
rest" conditions. If a structure moves toward the soils, the resulting resistance developed by the
soil is the "passive" resistance.
For design purposes, the recommended equivalent fluid pressure for each case for walls founded
above the static ground water table and backfilled with soils of very low expansion potential is
provided below.
- 10 -
4971006-00 I
I - - on - - -~ "on ---
Equivalent Fluid Wight (pcf) I

At-Rest 55 60 65
Passive 300 300 300
(Maximum of 3 ksf) (Maximum of 3 ksf) (Maximum of 3 ksf)
The above values assume tree-draining conditions. If conditions other than those assumed above
are anticipated, the equivalent fluid pressure values should be provided on an individual-case basis
by the geotechnical engineer. All retaining wall structures should be provided with appropriate
drainage. The outlet pipe should be sloped to drain to a suitable outlet. Typical drainage design
is illustrated in Appendix C:
Wall back cut excavations less than 3 feet in height can be made near vertical. For back cuts
greater than 3 feet in height, but less than 15 feet in height, the back cut should be flattened to a
gradient of not steeper than 1: 1 (horizontal to vertical) slope inclination. For back cuts in excess
of 15 feet in height, specific recommendations should be requested trom the geotechnical
consultant.
As previously mentioned, the walls should be backfilled with granular material. The granular
material backfill should be brought up to a height of approximately 2 feet below the top of the
walls and capped with compacted fill consisting of native soils. The granular and native backfill
soils should be compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction (based on ASTM Test Method
D1557-91). The granular fill should extend horizontally to a minimum distance equal to one-half
the wall height behind the walls. The walls should be constructed and backfilled as soon as
possible after back cut excavation. Prolonged exposure of back cut slopes may result in some
localized slope instability. .,
Soil resistance developed against lateral structural movement can be obtained from the passive
pressure values in the previous table. Further, for sliding resistance, a friction coefficient of 0.37
may be used at the concrete and soil interface. These values may be increased by one-third when
considering loads of short duration including wind or seismic loads. The total resistance may be
taken as the sum of the frictional and passive resistances provided the passive portion does not
exceed two-thirds of the total resistance.
Foundations for retaining walls in competent formational soils or properly compacted fill should
be embedded at least 18 inches below lowest adjacent grade. At this depth, an allowable bearing
capacity of 2,000 psf may be assumed.
5.9
Road Sign and FlagfLight Pole Design
The proposed poles may be supported on cast-in-place reinforced concrete pier(s) founded in the
properly compacted fill soils or Terrace Deposits at a minimum depth of 5 feet below existing
grade. We recommend a minimum pier diameter of 24 inches. The pier diameter and embedment
- 11 -
4971006-00 I
depth may be increased due to structural requirements. The drilled pier toundation may be assumed
to develop its vertical load-carrying capacity through skin &iction or end bearing or a combination
of both. IF end bearing and skin &iction are utilized for load carrying capacity, we recommend
that the allowable skin &iction be reduced by one-third.
We recommend designing the drilled, cast-in-place, concrete pier foundation for an allowable skin
friction resistance of 300 psf for downward loads and 200 psf for upward loads. We recommend
that skin friction be neglected in the upper approximately I foot &om finish grade.
Where end-bearing capacity is included in resisting vertical downward loads, the base of the pier
excavation should be cleaned and then observed by a representative of the geotechnical consultant
prior to the placement of steel and concrete. In this case, the pier may be designed for an end-
bearing capacity of 3,000 psf (assuming less than 1/2 inch 6i settlement) for piers founded a
minimum of 5 feet below the top of the existing grade.
The above values assume a factor of safety of 2 and be inc~ed by one-third for loads of short
duration such as wind or seismic loading.
If UBC Section 1806 is utilized to calculate the resistance to lateral loading, an allowable lateral
soil bearing pressure of 350 psf per foot of depth for properly compacted fill soils or alluvial soils.
We recommend that concrete be placed in a manner that prevents segregation of the concrete mix
and disturbance to the sides of the excavation. A limited shrink type of concrete is recommended
to allow full mobilization of pier skin friction. We also recommend that concrete be placed as soon
as possible after the pier shaft is excavated. Care should be taken to prevent caving.
5.10 Type of Cement for Construction
Test results of representative at grade soils sampled during our investigation (Appendix C) indicated
the soils possess a negligible soluble sulfate content. Accordingly, normal Type 1111 cement can
be used for concrete in contact with onsite soils.
5.11 Pavement Design
Final pavement recommendations should be provided based on R-value testing of roadway subgrade
soils as [mal grades are achieved. For planning purposes, we have assumed the sandy onsite soils
will have an R-value of 40. Utilizing assumed traffic indices of T.!. = 5.0, T.!. = 6.0, and T.!. =
7.0, the following structural pavement sections can be assumed for planning purposes. The project
architect/civil engineer should choose the approximate traffic index.
- 12 -
4971006-001
Traffic Index R-Value Structural Pavement Design
Car Parking and Light R=40 3.0 inches of asphalt concrete over
Auto Traffic 4 inches of Caltrans Class 2 base
T.!. = 5.0
Drive Areas R=40 3.5 inches of asphaltic concrete over
T.!. = 6.0 6 inches of Caltrans Class 2 base
Heavy Auto and Truck R=40 4 inches of asphaltic concrete over
Traffic/Fire Lanes 7 inches of Caltrans Class 2 base
T.!. = 7.0
A traffic index of 4.5 is typically used for parking areas for passenger vehicles with an average
daily traffic of less than 200 vehicles. A traffic index of 5.0 is similar to a cul-de-sac or local street
with an average daily traffic of less than 1,200 passenger vehicles with minor truck traffic. A
traffic index of 6.0 is similar to a local collector street with an average daily traffic of up to 2,500
vehicles per day with moderate small truck traffic and minor heavy (delivery-type truck traffic).
The upper 12 inches of subgrade soils should be scarified, moisture conditioned and compacted to
a minimum of 95 percent relative compaction based on ASTM Test Method D1557-91. If fill is
required to reach subgrade design grade, fill placement should be performed in accordance with the
recommendations presented in Section 5.1. The aggregate base material should be compacted to
95 percent relative compaction.
For the delivery pads, drive-thru lanes, and trash coITal areas, we recommend 6 inches of Portland
Cement Concrete (p.C.C.) over 4 inches of Caltrans Class 2 base. The P.C.C. in the above
pavement sections should be provided with appropriate steel reinforcement and crack-control joints
as designed by the project structural engineer. Minimum reinforcement should consist of 6x6-6/6
welded wire mesh at slab midheight which continues through all crack-control joints but not
through expansion joints. If sawcuts are used, they should be a minimum depth of 1/4 of the slab
thickness and made within 24 hours of concrete placement. We recommend that sections be as
nearly square as possible. A 3,250 psi concrete mix may be utilized.
Asphalt Concrete (A.C.), Portland Cement Concrete (p.C.C.) and Class 2 base materials should
confonn to and be placed in accordance with the latest revision of the California Department of
Transportation Standard Specifications (Caltrans) and American Concrete Institute (ACI) codes.
Untreated Class 2 aggregate base should meet the most recent Caltrans specifications. We
recommend that the curbs, gutters, and sidewalks be designed by the civil engineer or structural
engineer. We suggest control joints, at appropriate intervals, as determined by the civil or structural
engineer, be considered.
If pavement areas are adjacent to landscape areas, we recommend steps be taken to prevent the
subgrade soils &om becoming saturated. Concrete swales should be designed in roadway or parking
areas subject to concentrated surface runoff. Regular maintenance (such as seal coats and crack
infilling) is ~ important part of extending pavement life.
- 13 -
4971006-001
5.12 Drainage Control
Positive drainage of surface water away ITom the top of slopes toward the street, driveway or other
suitable collection point is very important. No water should be allowed to pond at any location.
5.13 Graded Slopes
It is recommended that all graded slopes within the development be planted with ground cover
vegetation as soon as practical to protect against erosion by reducing runoff velocity. Deep-rooted
vegetation should also be established to protect against surficial slumping. Oversteepening of
existing slopes should be avoided during fine ~ding and construction unless supported by
appropriately designed retaining structures.Y~~

4971006-00 I
6.& CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATION
The recommendations provided in this report are based on subsurface conditions disclosed by widely
spaced borings and geotechnical analysis. The interpolated subsurface conditions should be checked in
the field during construction by a representative of Leighton and Associates. We recommend that all cut
areas be geologically mapped for the presence of potentially adverse geologic conditions and potential
ground water seepage zones by an engineering geologist from Leighton and Associates during grading.
All grading operations should be observed by a representative of this firm so that construction is
performed in accordance with the recommendations of this report. Grading plans and final project
drawings should be reviewed by this office prior to construction.

APPENDIX C
Laboratory Testing Procedures and Test Results
Expansion Index Tests: The expansion potential of selected materials was evaluated by the Expansion
Index Test, U.B.C. Standard No. 18-2. Specimens are molded under a given compactive energy to
approximately the optimum moisture content and approximately 50 percent saturation or approximately
90 percent relative compaction. The prepared I-inch thick by 4-inch diameter specimens are loaded to
an equivalent 144 psf surcharge and are inundated with tap water until volumetric equilibrium is reached.
The results of these tests are presented in the table below:

Hvdrocollapse Tests: Hydrocollapse tests were performed on selected, relatively undisturbed ring samples.
Samples were placed in a consolidometer and loaded to overburden pressure. The percent consolidation
upon saturation was recorded as the ratio of the amount of vertical compression to the original I-inch
height. The amount of hydrocollapse is presented below:
Sample Hydrocollapse Potential Degree of Soil
Location (%) Saturation (%) Material
Bl @ 2' 0.17 41.0 Fill
Bl @ 5' 0.01 46.4 Fill
B2 @ 5' 0.02 63.3 Fill
B3 @ 2' 0.04 33.0 Fill
Soluble Sulfates: The soluble sulfate contents of selected samples were determined by standard
geochemical methods. The test results are presented in the table below:
Sulfate Potential Degree of
Sample Location Sample Description Content (%) Sulfate Attack.
