Re: Drainage Review Letter, 5491-G
Grading Plan
Dear Mr. Jensen:
Your Engineering Department has asked for a Hydrology Study for the above-referenced
grading project. The site lies on the southeasterly side of Manchester Avenue. The
contributing drainage basin which will impact the area of the property proposed to be
graded is basically from the centerline of Manchester Avenue southeasterly. The site is
proposed to be bisected by a 20 foot wide driveway which will have installed a 10 fool wide
concrete dip section to pass upstream storm flows across the road. The basin is about 2.0
acres in size and will generate approximately 3.8 CFS during the 100-year storm. The dip
section and down stream rock rip rap are adequate to carry these maximum expected
flows.
The riding ring will be drained to its southeasterly corner and discharged in a D-75
concrete ditch into a rock rip rap system. The expected 1 OO-year storm flows to this system
are approximately 1.4 CFS. This concrete down drain and rock rip rap are adequate to
handle this rate of flows.
By observation, the contributing
consequence and the minor dra'
for th . intend uses.
ba . s to the areas to be graded are of minor
stems and erosion control devices are adequate

APPENDIX B
RECOMMENDED GRADING SPECIFICATIONS
GRADING 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 soil to the lines and grades shown
on the accepted plans. The recommendations contained in the
preliminary geotechnical investigation report are a part of the
recommended grading specifications and would supersede the
provisions contained herein in case of conflict.
INSPECTION AND TESTING
A geotechnical engineer should be employed to observe and test the
earthwork in accordance with these specifications. It will be
necessary that the geotechnical engineer or his representative make
adequate observations so that he may provide a memorandum that the
work was or was not accomplished as specified. Deviations from
these specifications will be permitted only upon written
authorization from the geotechnical engineer. It should be the
responsibility of the contractor to assist the geotechnical
engineer and to keep him apprised of work schedules, changes and
new information and data so that he may provide the memorandum to
the owner and governmental agency as required.
If in the

opinion of the geotechnical engineer, substandard
such as questionable soil, poor moisture con1~rol,
compaction, adverse weather, etc. are encountered,< the
should stop construction until the conditions are
Unless otherwise specified, fill material should be compacted by
the contractor while near the optimum moisture content to a density
that is no less than 90 percent of the maximum dry denSity
determined in accordance with ASTM Test No. D1557~78 or other
density test methods that will yield equivalent results.
CLEARING AND PREPARATION OF AREAS TO RECEIVE FILL
All trees, brush, grass and other objectionable material should be
collected, piled and burned or otherwise disposed of by the
contractor so as to leave the areas that have been cleared with a
neat and finished appearance, free from unSightly debris.

All vegetable matter and objectionable material should be removed
by the contractor from the surface upon which the fill is to be
placed, and any loose or porous soils should be removed or
compacted to the depth determined by the geotechnical engj.neer.
The surface should then be plowed or scarified to a minimum depth
of 6 inches until the surface is free from uneven features that
would tend to prevent uniform compaction by the equipment to be
used.
When the slope of the natural ground receiving fill exceeds 20
percent (5 horizontal to 1 vertical), the original ground should be
stepped or benched as shown on the attached plate. Benches should
be cut to a firm, competent soil condition. The lower bench should
be at least 10 feet wide and all other benches at least 6 feet
wide, ground slopes flatter than 20 percent should be benched when
considered necessary by the geotechnical engineer.
FILL MATERIAL
Materials for compacted soil should consist of any material
imported or excavated from the cut areas that in the opinion of the
geotechnical engineer is suitable for use in construction fills.
The material should contain no rocks or hard lumps greater than 12
inches in size and should contain at least 40 percent of material
smaller than 1/4 inch in size. (Materials greater than 6 inches in
size should be placed by the contractor so that they are surrounded
by compacted fines; no nesting of rocks will be permitted.) No
material of a perishable, spongy or otherwise improper nature
should be used in filling.
Material placed within 36 inches of rough grade should be select
material that contains no rocks or hard lumps greater than 6 inches
in size and that swells less than 3 percent when compacted (as
specified later herein for compacted fill) and soaked under an
axial pressure of 150 psf.
Potentially expansive soils may be used in fills below a depth of
36 inches and should be compacted at a moisture greater than the
optimum moisture content for the material.
PLACING, SPREADING AND COMPACTING OF FILL
Approved material should be placed in areas prepared to receive
fill in layers not to exceed 6 inches in compacted thickness. Each
layer should 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 to a minimum specified density
with adequately sized equipment, either specifically designed for
soil compaction or of proven reliability. Compaction should be
continuous over the entire area and the equipment should make

sufficient trips to ensure that the desired density has been
obtained throughout the fill.
When moisture content of the fill material is below that specified
by the geotechnical engineer, water should be added by the
contractor until the moisture content is as specified.
When the moisture content of the fill material is above that
specified by the geotechnical engineer, the fill material should be
aerated by the contractor by blading, mixing or other satisfactory
methods until the moisture content is as specified.
The surface of fill slopes should be compacted and there should be
no excess loose soil on the slopes.

INSPECTION
Observation and compaction tests will be made by the geotechnical
engineer during the filling and compacting operations so that he
can state whether the fill was constructed in accordance with the
specifications.
The geotechnical engineer will make field density tests in
accordance with ASTM Test No. D1557-78. Density tests will be made
in the compacted materials below the surface where the surface is
disturbed. When these tests indicated that the density of any
layer of fill or portion thereof is below the specified density,
that particUlar layer or portion should be reworked until the
specified density has been obtained.
The location and frequency of the tests well be at the soil
engineer's discretion. In general, the density tests will be made
at an interval not exceeding 2 feet in vertical rise and/or 500
cubic yards of embankment.
PROTECTION OF WORK
During construction, the contractor should properly grade all
excavated surfaces to provide posi ti ve drainage and prevent ponding
of water. He should control surface water to avoid damage to
adj oining properties or to finished work on the site. The
contractor should take remedial measures to prevent erosion of
freshly graded areas and until such time as permanent drainage and
erosion control features have been installed.

This report presents the results of our geotechnical investigation for the
site of the new Iilorth Coast Presbyterian Church, which is to be located
south of Manchester Avenue about a half mile east of EI Camino Real, in
Encinitas, California. The location of the site is illustrated on the
following Figure Number 1.
We understand that the site developnEnt will consist of the construction of
a new church with associated buildings, streets and parking areas. The
church and parking lots will be developed in t= phases. In addition to the,

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 the
development, including their bearing capacities, expansive
~haracteristics and settlellEnt potential.

The subject site is an irregular shaped parcel of land, approxilnately 22
acres ,in area, and situated on the north edge of the head of San Elijo
Lagoon. The property is bounded on the north by Manchester Avenue, on the
east by residential property, on the Y.Bst by a corrrrercial nursery, and on
the south by the flood plains of the lagoon. A single residential lot
protrudes into the site off of Manchester in the northY.Bst corner. This lot
is not a part of this developrent.
Site relief is characterized rrostly by gently sloping te=ain traversed by
several subdued drainages. A predominant knoll exists in the Y.Bst p:>rtion of
the site that rises about 30 feet above the lagoon. This knoll has a
relatively steep slope along the edge of the lagoon that is uncormon to the
rest of the site. Another knoll of srrall prop:>rtions exists adjacent to
Manchester Avenue near the northeast corner and a third knoll just
penetrates the site near the southeast corner. Both of these knolls have
relatively steep slopes, as conpared to the rest of the site.

No structures exist on the site, but a ISO foot wide SDG&E easerrent with
overhead high ~r lines divides the site into b-u areas nearly equal in
size. A IS-foot-wide sewer easerrent parallels the west side of the SDG&E
easerrent. Adjacent 22-foot-wide and 23-foot-wide sewer easerrents pass off
site along the south side. In addition, a San Dieguito I=igation District
water line runs near the south property line and rreanders onto and off of
the subject property.
Vegetation on site is limited to a sparse cover of low wild grasses. Past
site use rray have been for agricultural or grazing land.
GENERAL GOOUX;y AND SUBSURFllCE <nIDITIOOS
c:I'YlrlY:TC ::.r;~.r.uc 1\11) SOn. DESCRIPl'ICN: The subject site is located in the
lower California Physiographic Province of the united States and with the
Coastal Plains Province of San Diego County. The site is underlain by
deposits of sedirrentary origin. In decreasing order of age, the native
materials at the site consist of the Lusardi Formation (Kl), Delmar
Forrration ('I'd), te=ace deposits (Ot), and slopewash and alluvium (Qsw/Qal).
A srrall area of artificial fill rraterial (Qaf) also exists at the site. A
brief description of each of these geclogic rraterials is presented below.
LUSARDI FORMATICN (Kl): The oldest rraterial encountered at the site is
the Cretaceous-age Lusardi Forrration which consists of coarse, poorly
sorted, angular to rounded conglorrerates with interbeds and interlenses
of yellowish brown sandstone. The clasts in the conglorrerate include
granitic rocks, volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks, and quartzite and are
apparently obtained from the nearby baserrent rocks.
DE:U!AR FORMATICN ('I'd): The next oldest rraterials exposed at the site are
the sandstones, siltstones, and claystones of the Eocene-age Del.rrar
Forrration. In the vicinity of the project site, the DeIrrar Forrration
consists largely of nearly horizontally bedded, greenish-brown, sandy
siltstones and claystones with interbeds of rredium to coarse grai.ned .
sandstone. '---. I

SCS&T 8811097

--.-.. \
TERRACE DEPOSITS (Qt): Some minor exposures of Quaternary terrace
deposits ~ noted at the project site. These deposits consist of
reddish-brown to brown, dense to very dense, sandstones and
conglorrerates which rest unconfonrably on the Del.m3.r Fonnation.
SI.IJPEWASH J\R) ALUJVTIlM (QswIQal): The Quaternary-age colluvial and
alluvial deposits consist of poorly consolidated surficial materials
that have been derived from the nearby bedrock sources and redeposited
along the valley slopes and drainage courses. These deposits are very
loose to nedium dense and range in thickness from a few feet to several
tens of feet. Our deepest boring near the phase II classroom extended to
65 feet below grade and did not encounter the fonnational deposits.
ARTIFICIAL FILL (Qaf): The artificial fill was derived from on-site
sources and is identical in character to the alluvium and colluvium. The
extent of this material is relatively minor within the site limits.
'In:lUlIC 1jI;'1"rllG: No faults are known to traverse the subject site but it
should be noted that much of Southern California, including the San Diego
County area, 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 north\\Bsterly direction. Sorre 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 rrost recent 11,000 years) while potentially active fault

million years before the present) but no rrovenent during Holocene t.irre.
A review of available geologic maps indicates that the Rose Canyon Fault
Zone is located approxirrately six miles \\Bst of the site. Recent earthquake
activity along faults in the southern extension of the Rose Canyon Fault
Zone indicates that this zone could be classified as active. The recent

seismic events along a small portion of the Rose Canyon Fault Zone generated
earthquakes of rragnitude 4.0 or less. Other active fault zones in the region
that could possibly affect the site include the Coronado Banks and San
Clenente Fault Zones to the sou~st and the Elsinore and San Jacinto Fault
Zones to the northeast.
= cr.rC IlAZARI:S
GENERAL: The site is located in an area which is relatively free of
potential geologic hazards. Hazards such as tsunamis, seiches, and
landsliding should be considered negligible or nonexistent.
GIUlNI:SHAKl:lI: The nost likely geologic hazard to affect the site is
groundshaking as a result of rroverrent along one of the major, active fault
zones mentioned above. The maximum bedrock accelerations that w:mld be
attributed to a maximum probable earthquake occurring along the nearest
portion of selected fault zones that could affect the site are surrmarized
in Table I.
TABlE I
Maximum Probable Bedrock Design
Fault Zone Distance Earthquake Acceleration Acceleration
Rose Canyon 6 miles 6.0 magnitude 0.35 g 0.24 g
Coronado Banks 16 miles 6.0 magnitude 0.17 g 0.12 g
Elsinore 27 miles 7.3 magnitude 0.08 g 0.05 g

San Clenente 50 miles 7 . 3 iragni tude 0.08 g 0.05 g
Earthquakes on the Rose Canyon or Coronado Banks Fault Zones are expected to
be relatively minor. Major seismic events are likely to be the result of
novement along the San Jacinto, San Clenente or Elsinore Fault Zones.

Experience has shown that structures that are constructed in accordance with
Unifonn Building Code Standards are fairly resistant to seismic related
hazards. It is, therefore, our opinion that potential structural danage
will be minimized if such buildings are designed and constructed in
accordance with the rn:inirmJm standards of the IlOst recent edition of the
Unifonn Building Code.
GROONI:MATER
The groundwater table was exposed in our four test borings at an elevation
of about 16 feet MSL. We anticipate that during very wet periods, the
groundwater table could rise to an elevation of about 25 feetMSL. Provided
-----..---" -.-.
the site grading is perforrrecl in the sunner IlOnths, we do not expect the
groundwater to present a problem. Although no groundwater, seepage or
otherwise saturated soils were found in our test trenches, it is not
uncormon to develop adverse seepage conditions where sites such as this are
graded and heavily irrigated. Such problems, hO\\BVer, can only be identified
and corrected when they occur.

In general, no geotechnical conditions were encountered 'which VoDuld preclude r0<"-V....
the developrent of the site as proposed. The main geotechnical factor t.hat
will affect site developrent costs is the presence of deep, loose to very
loose, alluvial soils and terrace deposits of questionable suitability. In
the area of the proposed main church building and recreation hall, this
condition is complicated by the presence of terrace deposits near the
existing ground surface just north of the building pads. (--6'
In order to mitigate the exposed adverse soil conditions, special deep foundat Jns
such as driven piles, or special grading that VoDuld rerrove all loose or
questionable soils within building pads could be used. However, pile
formations are quite expansive and corrplete reIlOVal of the alluvial soils
VoDuld not only be cost prohibitive due to its depth., but VoDuld also be hindered

by the presence of the groundwater table. Although a rrore risky rrethod to
mitigate these conditions, the use of surcharged corrpacted soil mats and
stiffened foundation and slabs could be a rrore economical and hence rrore
desirable rrethod to prepare the site. This type of system has been used (
successfully many times in the past and, in our opinion, provides a
reasonable degree of risk for this site and the type of development
proposed. RecOI11lendations for this type of site preparation are provided
herein and assurres that the owners are willing to assurre the additional
risks in order to have an rrore economical rrethod to mitigate the adverse
site conditions. If this is not the case, we can provide driven pile
foundation recOI11lendations for the project.

SITE PREPARM'ICIil: Site preparation should begin with the rerroval of all
vegetation from areas that will be graded or that will receive fill and
disposal of this material off site. The existing on-site soils should then
be prepared as specified below for the type of inl:>roverrents indicated.
MAIN CEIIJR::H BUllDIN; AND RECREATICIil HALL: The site preparation for the
main church building and recreation hall should consist of rerroval of
all alluvium and te=ace deposits to an elevation of 19 feet MSL. This
should ,be about three feet above the groundwater table. The minimum
horizontal limits of the excavation should extend at least fifteen feet
outside the perirreter of the building. The bottom of the excavation
should be stabilized with Mirafi 600X or an equivalent ground
stabilization fabric. The excavation should then be backfilled with
nondetrimentally expansive soil (EI less than 50) placed in thin
uniformly corrpacted lifts. The minimum degree of corrpaction for this
soil mat should be 95 pe=ent of its maximum dry density.
Once the building pad is filled to finish grade, - a surcharge fill should
be placed on the fill pad. The surcharge fill should be at least eight-

feet high and extend at least ten feet outside the limits of the
buildings. The surcharge fill should be compacted to at least 90 percent
relative compaction. At least t\<O settlerrent rronUITEnts should be set at (((~.
the bottom of the excavation in order to rronitor the fill settlerrents
produced by the pad fill and the surcharge fill. The rronUITEnts should be
read on a daily basis until the pad and surcharge is in place, and
~kly there after. Due to the sandy nature of the alluvial soils, \..e
anticipate that the consolidation created by the fill and surcharge
should take place within a period of one to t\<O rronths.
AI:MINIS'mATICN BUIIDnG: It appears that this building will be situated
in an area underlain by the terrace deposits (see Trench Number 15), and
by siltstones of the Delmar Forrration. 'Ib prepare this area to receive /' /
the structure, \..e recOilllEnd that the existing soils be rerroved t.O a ;1
depth of at least three feet below finish grade. If expansive claystones
of the Delmar Forrration are exposed at the bottom of this excavation,
the excavation should be lCM3red to at least four feet below finish
grade. The minim.m1 horizontal limits of this excavation should extend at
least seven feet outside the perilleter of the structure. The excavation
should be backfilled with nondetrillentally expansive soils compacted to
at least 90 percent of their nexi.Immt dry density.
CLII.SSRO':M): The "U" shaped buildings east of the main building should
also be constructed on a mat of uniformly compacted fill. The fill mat
should be constructed by excavating the loose alluvial deposits to an
elevation of 24 feet MSL or 12 feet below finish pad grade, whichever is
less. The minim.m1 horizontal limits of the excavation should extend at
least ten feet outside the perilleter of the building. Stabilization
fabric will not be necessary for this excavation. The soils exposed at
the bottom of the excavation should be thoroughly watered and be
compacted with heavy construction equipIEnt. The fill placed back in the
excavation should be compacted to at least 90 percent of its nexi.Immt dry
density.

STREETS AND PARKING LOTS: Since streets and parking lots are less
settlerrent sensitive than buildings, preparation of the native alluvial
soils and te=ace deposits is less critical. H~er, it should be
realized that rrore risks are ass=iated with lesser site preparation
rrethods than discussed above for the buildings. If the owners do not
want to assurre any additional risks, the parking lots and street areas
should be prepared as recorrrrended above for the classr=m building. If a
rrore economical but rrore risky rrethod to mitigate the loose soils is
desired, the areas could be prepared by rerroving the existing soils to
at least two feet below subgrade, flooding the areas with water and
compacting the subsurface soils with a vibratory compactor. The
vibratory compactor should have a dynamic v.eight of at least ten tons
and should operate at a frequency of at least 25 cycles per second.. At
least three passes should be oode with the compactor. Once this is
accorrplished, the processed areas be brought to finish grade in thin
compacted lifts.
PATIOO;SIDEWAU\S: All loose soils within two feet of subgrade for patios
and sidewalks should be rroisture conditioned, and be compacted to at.
least 90 percent relative compaction using the vibratory compactor
recorrrrended above for street and parking area preparation.
OIHER FILL AREAS: In fill areas other than that covered by the above
recorrrrendations, v.e recorrrrend that the near surface soils be heavily
watered and be compacted with a vibratory compactor as recorrrrended above
for streets and parking areas.
RESIDENTIAL IOl'S: Since the building location on the three, two-acre
residential lots have been determined and since the soil conditions vary
on each of the lots, only preliminary recorrrrendations are presented
therein. These should be verified and, where necessary, rrodified once
the l=ations of the structures are known. On lots 1 and 2, the alluvial
soils and te=ace deposits within the building pad and other areas to
support settlerrent sensitive improverrents such -as patios and swimning
pools should be prepared by renoving all alluvial deposits to a depth of

10 feet below finish grade or to. fiJ:m terrace deposits, whichever is
less. Alluvial soils at the bottom of the excavation should be heavily
watered and corrpacted with heavy construction equiprent. Any terrace
deposits within three feet of finish grade should also be rerroved. The
excavation should be backfilled with nondetrirrentally expansive soils.
The driveways should be prepared as recorrrrended above for streets. On
Lot 3, the finish grade soils will probably consist of the gravel
conglorrerate of the Lusardi Fo:rnation. These soils are suitable to
support settlerrent-sensitive structures. HOv.BVer, due to the difficulty
in excavating footing trenches in and fine grading very gravelly
materials, consideration should be given to capping the building pad
with a b.o-foot-thick cap of the sandy soils that are cOllllDn to the
site. In addition, the clayey topsoils should be rerroved from within
three feet of the building pad finish grade.
EARIE{)RK: All earthwork and grading contenplated for site preparation
should be accorrplished in accordance with the attached Recorrrrended Grading
Specifications and Special Provisions. All special site preparation
recorrrrendations presented in the sections above will supersede those in the
standard Recorrrrended Grading Specifications. All embankrrents, structural
fill and fill should be corrpacted to at least 90% relative corrpaction at or
slightly over optimum l10isture content (95% for the church/recreation and
pad). Utility trench backfill within five feet of the proposed structures
and beneath asphalt paverrents should be corrpacted to minimum of 90% of its
maximum dry density. The upper t_lve inches of subgrade beneath paved areas
should be corrpacted to 95% of its maximum dry density. This corrpaction
should be obtained by the paving contractor just prior to placing the
aggregate base material and should not be part of the mass grading
requirerrents. The maximum dry density of each soil type should be determined
in accordance with A.S.T.M. Test Method D-1557-78, Method A or C.

develOJ;llBl1ts, the maximum slope height is not expected to exceed about 15
feet. Cut and fill slopes of heights on the order of 15 feet should be
stable with relation to deep-seated failure if constructed at a flatter than
a horizontal to vertical slope ratio of 2:1. Steeper slopes are not
recomrended because of the potential for surface erosion.
Surface erosion of the slopes should be controlled by landscaping and by not ,,'
allowing runoff to flow over the top of slopes. Slopes should be planted
with erosion resisting plants, preferably deep-rooted varieties adapted to
semi -arid climates. Iceplants (Carpobrotus) or other heavy bodied,
shallow-rooted succulents should not be used.
FCllNDATIcm
GENERAL: Provided the site is prepared as recomrended above, it is our
opinion that the proposed structures nay be founded on stiffened, shallow
spread footings. The footings for the nain church building and recreation
hall should be founded at least 24 inches below l~st adjacent finish grade
and should have a minilrum width of 15 inches. These footings should be
reinfo:rced with at least four No. 5 bars, tv.u top and tv.u bottom. Isolated
footings should be tied together with grade beams of at least the sane
configuration and reinforcement as the continuous footings. All other
buildings should be founded on continuous spread footings founded at least
18 inches below lowest finish grade and having a width of at least 12
inches. Such footings should be reinfo:rced by at least four No. 4 bars, tv.u
top and tv.u bOttom. If the structure on Lot 3 will be founded on the Lusardi
Formation gravels, 12-inch deep footings reinfo:rced with at least tv.u No. 4
bars, one top and bottom Ill3.y be used. The above recomrendations should be
considered as preliminary and will need to be verified after site grading is
corrpleted.
BEARING CAPACITY: Spread footings having the minimum dimensions and
reinfo:rcing recomrended above Ill3.y be designed for an allowable soil bearing
pressure of 3000 psf. This pressure nay be increased by one-third for wind
and seismic loading. No footings should be positioned closer than seven

horizontal feet from the face of slopl9s and f=tings at different bearing,.
levels should be situated such that there is at least a 1:1 slope bet~n
bearing levels.
EXPANSIVE OiARl\CJEUSITCS: The foundation recorrrrendations presented ab:Jve
assurre that no expansive soils will exist within the zone of influence of
building foundations.
smTLEMENr OiARl\CJEUSITCS: The anticipated total and/or differential
settlements for the proposed structure may be considered to be within
tolerable limits provided the recorrrrendations 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 sorre cracks may be anticipated. Such cracks
are not necessarily an indication of excessive vertical rroverrents.
lNmRICR ~lli SLABS
GENERAL: Interior on-grade slabs for the main church and recreational hall,
and the classroom buildings should be at least five inches thick and be
reinforced with at least No. 3 bars at 18 inches on center. For the rest of
the structures, the on-grade internal slab should be at least four inches
thick and be reinforced with No. 3 bars at 30 inches on center each way.
MOISTURE BARRIER: A moisture barrier should be installed beneath all
interior on-grade slabs. This llDisture barrier should consist of one inch of
sand over a 6 mil visqueen llDisture barrier over four inches of crushed rock
or clean, coarse, p=rly graded sand. The native sands are not considered
clean, coarse sands and should not be used to construct the moisture
barrier.
EARlH RETAININ:; S'mICl'URES
ALLOWABLE PASSIVE PRESSURE: The allowable passive pressure for the
prevailing soil condition can be considered to be 350 psf per f=t of depth.

'\
The coefficient of friction for concrete to soil rray be assurred to be 0.30
for the resistance to horizontal rroverrent. When combining frictional and
passive resistance, the friction value should be reduced by one-third.
1\CTIVE SOIL ~lJRE: Active soil pressure for the design of earth retaining
structures may be assumed to be equivalent to the pressure of a fluid
weighing 35 pef and 45 pef for the unrestrained and restrained retaining
walls, respectively. These soil pressures are for no surcharge and for a
drained and level backfill condition. If the backfill will not be level, or
if a surcharge is anticipated, this office should be contacted for the
necessary increase in soil pressure.
BI\CKFILL: All backfill soils should be compacted to at least 90% relative rt
compaction. Expansive or clayey soils should not be used for backfill
material. The wall should not be backfilled until the rrasonry has reached
an adequate strength.
FJlC'lUR 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 fran overturning and sliding.
PAVEMENl' ~OOS
GENERAL: Two "R" value tests were perfomed on representative samples of the
anticipated subgrade soils. These tests indicate that the soils native to
the site have relatively high strength pararreters in regards to structural
paverrent section design. This will allow the use of minirm.nn structural
paverrent section. Minor arrounts of clayey topsoils exist in the northeast
corner and sOlIE of the claystone and siltstone rraterials of the Delnar
Forrration are relatively weak and if found at subgrade could cause thickened
structural sections.

FIEID EXPWRATICtlS
Thirty-one subsurface explorations ~ made at the locations indicated on
the attached Plate Number 1 between March 24 and 27, 1989. These
explorations consisted of twenty-seven trenches dug by rreans of a backhoe
and f= borings drilled using a continuous flight auger, truck llOunted
drill rig. The field work was conducted under the observation of our
engineering geology personnel.
The explorations were carefully logged when made. These logs are presented
on the following Plates Number 3 through 34. The soils are described in
accordance with the Unified Soils Classification System as illustrated on
the attached sirrplified chart on Plate 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, rredium dense, dense or very dense. The consistency of
silts or clays is given as either very soft, soft, rredium stiff, stiff, very

b) KIISTURE-DENSl'l'Y: Field llOisture content and dry density were
dete:rmined for representative samples obtained. This info:rnation
was an aid to classification and pennitted recognition of
variations in material consistency with depth. The dry unit
weight is determined in pounds per cubic foot, and the field

GENERAL INll'Bl'
The intent of these specifications is to establish p=edures 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 reconrrendations contained in the preliminary geotechnical investigation
report and/or the attached Special Provisions are a part of the Reconrrended
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 soil report or in other written corrmunication
signed by the Soil Engineer.
CIlSERVATICE 1\IiI) '~'J:'.u<<;
Southern California Soil and Testing, Inc., shall be retained as the Soil
Engineer to observe and test the earthwork in accordance with these
specifications. It will be necessary that the Soil Engineer or his
representative provide adequate observation so that he may provide an
opinion that the work was or was not accomplished as specified. It shall be
the responsibility of the contractor to assist the soil engineer and to keep
him appraised of =rk schedules, changes and new infonretion and data so
that he may provide these opinions. In the event that any unusual
conditions not covered by the special provisions or preliminary soil report
are encountered during the grading operations, the Soil Engineer shall be
contacted for further reconrrenctations.
If, in the opinion of the Soil Engineer, substandard conditions are
encountered, such as; questionable or unsuitable soil, unacceptable llOisture

content, inadequate conpaction, adverse ~ther, etc., construction should i~
be stopped until the conditions are remedied or corrected or he shall
recOllllEnd rejection of this =rk.
Test methods used to determine the degree of conpaction should be perfOl:ned
in accordance with the following Arrerican Society for Testing and Materials
test methods:
Maxirrurn Density & Optirrn.un Moisture Content - A.S.T.M. 0-1557-78.
Density of Soil In-Place - A.S.T.M. 0-1556-64 or A.S.T.M. 0-2922.
All densities shall be expressed in terms of Relative Compaction as
determined by the foregoing A.S.T.M. testing procedures.
PREPARATIrn OF 1\REA5 m ROCEIVE FILL
All vegetation, brush and debris derived from clearing operations shall
be rerroved, 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 in areas to be filled shall
be scarified to a depth of 6 inches, brought to the proper rroisture content,
conpacted and tested for the mi.nirrn.un degree of conpaction in the Special
Provisions or the recOllllEndation contained in the preliminary geotechnical
investigation report. All loose soils in excess of 6 inches thick should be
rerroved to firm natural ground which is defined as natural soils which
possesses an in-situ density of at least 90% of its maxirrn.un dry density.
When the slope of the natural ground receiving fill exceeds 20% (5
horizontal units to 1 vertical unit), the original ground shall be stepped
(R-8j87)
...

or benched. Benches shall be cut to a fi.J:m competent soil condition. The
lower bench shall be at least 10 feet wide or 1 1/2 tinEs the the equiprent
width which ever is greater and shall be sloped back into the hillside at a
gradient of not less than t= (2) percent. All other benches should be at
least 6 feet wide. The horizontal portion of each bench shall be conpacted
prior to receiving fill as specified herein for conpacted natural ground.
Ground slopes flatter than 20% shall be benched when considered necessary by
the Soil Engineer.
Any abandoned buried structures encountered during grading operations II1.1St
be totally rerroved. All underground utilities to be abandoned beneath any
proposed structure should be rerroved from within 10 feet of the structure
and properly capped off. The resulting depressions from the above described
procedures should be backfilled with acceptable soil that is compacted to
the requirerrents of the Soil Engineer. This includes, but is not limited
to, septic tanks, fuel tanks, sewer lines or leach lines, stom drains and
water lines. Any buried structures or utilities not to be abandoned should
be brought to the attention of the Soil Engineer so that he Ill3.y dete:rmine
if any special recorrrrendation will be necessary.
All water \\ells which will be abandoned should be backfilled and capped in
accordance to the requirerrents set forth by the Soil 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
diarreter of the \\ell and should be dete:rmined by the Soil Engineer and/or a
qualified Structural Engineer.
FIT..L MA'mRIAL
Materials to be placed in the fill shall be approved by the Soil Engineer
and shall be free of vegetable Ill3.tter and other deleterious substances.

Granular soil shall contain sufficient fine rraterial to fill the voids. The
SCS&T 8911097

Appendix, Page 4
definition and disposition of oversized rocks, expansive and/or detri.rrental
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 rraterial, but only with the explicit consent of the soil
engineer. Any irrport rraterial shall be approved by the Soil Engineer before
being brought to the site.
l'LIlCIN; AND ccm>1\Cl'Irn OF FILL
Approved fill rraterial 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 IlDisture 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 a rnini1Tu.nn specified
degree of compaction with equiprent of adequate size to economically compact
the layer. Compaction equiprent should either be specifically designed for
soil cornpaction or of proven reliability. The rnini1Tu.nn degree of compaction
to be achieved is specified in either the Special provisions or the
recorrrrendations contained in the preliminary geotechnical investigation
report .
When the structural fill rraterial includes rocks, no rocks will be allowed
to nest and all voids IlUlst be carefully filled with soil such that the
minimum degree of compaction recommended in the Special Provisions is
achieved. The rna.xi.rm.nn 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 cornpaction tests to estirrate the degree of compaction
of the fill will be taken by the Soil Engineer or his representative. The
(R-8187)

location and frequency of the tests shall be at the Soil Engineer's
discretion. When the compaction test indicates that a particular layer is
less than the required degree of compaction, the layer shall be re=rked to
the satisfaction of the Soil Engineer and until the desired relative
compaction has been obtained.
Fill slopes shall be compacted by rreans of sheepsfoot rollers or other
suitable equiprent. Compaction by sheepsfoot rollers shall be at vertical
intervals of not greater than four feet. In addition, fill slopes at ratios
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 JlI3.terial six or IlDre inches inward from the finished face
of the slope having a relative compaction of at least 90% of naximJm dry
density or that specified in the Special provisions section of this
specification. The compaction operation on the slopes shall be continued
until the Soil Engineer is of the opinion that the slopes will be stable in
regards to surficial stability.
Slope tests will be JlI3.de by the Soils Engineer during construction of the
slopes to dete:rrnine if the required compaction is being achieved. Where
failing tests oc= or other field problems arise, the Contractor will be
notified that day of such conditions by written corrmunication from the Soil
Engineer or his representative in the fOIll1 of a daily field report.
If the rrethod of achieving the required slope compaction selected by the
Contractor fails to produce the necessary results, the Contractor shall
re=rk or rebuild such slopes until the required degree of compaction is
obtained, at no cost to the Owner or Soils Engineer.

The Engineering Geologist shall inspect cut slopes excavated in rock or
lithified fonnational material during the grading operations at intervals
detennined 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 detennine if
mitigating rreasures are necessary.
Unless otheJ:Wise specified in the geotechnical report, no cut slopes shall
be excavated higher or steeper than that all~ by the ordinances of the
controlling goverrnrental agency.
EK;INEE(UH; CIlSERVATICfi
Field observation by the Soil Engineer or his representative shall be made
during the filling and compacting operations so that he can express his
opinion regarding the conformance of the grading with acceptable standards
of practice. The presence of the Soil Engineer or his representative or the
observation and testing shall not release the Grading Contractor f:rom his
duty to compact all fill material to the specified degree of compaction.
~ LIMITS
Fill shall not be placed during unfavorable weather conditions. When Io>Urk
is interrupted by heavy rain, filling operations shall not be resurrect until
the proper moisture content and density of the fill materials can be
achieved. Damaged site conditions resulting f:rom weather or acts of God
shall be repaired before acceptance of Io>Urk.
