REPORT OF COMPACTED FILLED GROUND

City of Encinitas
Dear Mr Watson:
During the grading operation covered in our Report of compacted Filled Ground dated
August 12, 2001, we observed that the 2 -foot removal of existing soils was accomplished.
The bottom of the excavation was inspected and approved for replacement of the soils to
be rec:ompacted. Tito soils were replaced and recompacted in accordance with the
applicable recommendations in our Site Inspection report dated March 21, 2001. As they
were replaced, a representative of our firm tested to insure that proper compaction had
been achieved. Our Report of Compacted Filled Ground presents our test results and
observations of the grading operation,
if you Have any additional questions, please contact our office.
Respectfully submitted,

Report of Compacted Filled Ground
Proposed Residential Building Site
302 Seeman Drive
City of Encinitas
Dear Mr. Watson:
In accordance with your request, our firm has inspected the grading operation and tested the fill
soils that were placed and compacted during the preparation of the subject side. This is to report
the results of our soil tests. The work was performed during the period between July 20, 2001
and July 30, 2001. The site is located at 302 Seeman Drive, City of Encinitas. A brief legal
description is APN 259- 130 -24.
To briefly summarize the work, we found the compaction of the fill soils to conform to the
recommended and approved grading specifications and current standard practices.
SECTION No. 1. SCOPE
Our function consisted of providing the engineering services involved with determining the
degree of compaction of fill placed on the site in accordance with the recommendations set forth
in our Site Inspection dated March 21, 2001.
The results of the field density tests are presented on Page T -1 under "Table of Test Results ".
The laboratory determinations of the maximum dry densities and optimum moisture contents of
the fill soils are set forth on Page L -1 under "Laboratory Test Results ". The approximate
locations of the filled ground and the field density tests are presented on Plate No. 1 entitled
"Location of Field Density Tests "_
The grading was performed for the purpose of recompacting existing loose soils and providing
level building pad for the construction of the proposed residential building.

SECTION No. 2. SOIL CONDITIONS
Soils used in the fill were those generated from the on -site excavation.
EARTHWORK
Preparation: Prior to placement of fill, the areas to receive fill were scarified, watered and
compacted to 90 percent_ Natural ground to receive fill was tested to determine its relative
compaction. Native soils having a relative compaction of less than 85 percent were removed,
replaced and compacted to 90 percent.
Placing and compacting fill: Fill soil was placed, watered and mechanically densified in the
areas indicated on attached Plate No. 1. During grading, any fill found to have a relative
compaction of less than 90 percent was reworked until the proper density of 90 percent had been
achieved.
Field density test results: To verify compaction, field density tests were performed in
accordance with applicable American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) test methods.
Test method ASTM D1556 -82 was used at the indicated locations.
SECTION No. 3. SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the work and tests described hereinbefore and work description set forth in Section 1,
'Scope!, we conclude:
1. The filled ground has been compacted to 90 %.
2. The placement of fill has been accomplished in accordance with the grading
specifications and with current standard practices.
3. Spread footings will have a minimum allowable bearing value of at least 2000
pounds per square foot. The allowable bearing value will be considerably more
for footings larger than 12 inches wide and/or 12 inches deep. If loads heavier
than 2000 pounds per square foot for continuous footings are anticipated, we
should be contacted for an increased bearing value.
4. Expansive soils were not encountered. Conventional spread footings founded a
minimum of 12 inches below lowest adjacent grade and having a width determined
by the allowable soil bearing value as detailed above are recommended for
foundation support. Footing widths should be at least 12 and 24 inches for

continuous and square footings respectively due to practical considerations as well
as Building Code requirements. Reinforcing in footings should consist of one #4
steel bar placed continuously in the top and bottom of continuous footings regardless
of structural requirements_ Reinforcing for isolated footings are dictated by the
structural requirements.
5- Concrete slab -on -grade should be constructed to have a nominal thickness of 4"
and underlain with a sand blanket of 3 inches in thickness. Provide minimum
temperature reinforcement consisting of 6X6 -10 /10 welded wire mesh. The sand
subbase (sand blanket) should have a sand equivalent exceeding 30 per ASTM
D2419. All slabs should either have a conventional thickened edge or be poured
monolithically with continuous footings at the slabs perimeter. Conventional
thickened edges should be 8" thick at slab edge, uniformly tapering to 4" thick at
2' from slab edge_ The thickened edges or monolithic footings should extend
completely around the slab's perimeter. Construction and expansion joints should
be considered slab edges. Maximum spacing of expansion joints is 50' for interior
slabs and 30' for exterior slabs.
SECTION No. 4. LIMITATIONS
UNIFORMITY OF SOIL CONDITIONS:
The values presented in this report are based on our evaluation of the observed, exposed soil
conditions. We have assumed that the soil conditions in the remaining portions of the site can be
interpolated without significant deviation in physical properties. We have made a conscientious
effort to select representative test locations and to provide enough tests for a statistically
adequate population in excess of current standard practices. However, parameter values may be
substantially different in other areas due to unforeseeable variations in the soils. Also, the
parameters are affected in time by the moisture- expansion (volume) - pressure changes that
seriously affect the tested values.
ENGINEERING INTERPRETATION:
We are available for consultation and should be made aware of any pertinent condition or
problem_ Our conclusions will be re- evaluated and any problem or potential problem solved
with a minimum effort and cost before it gets out --of -hand.

LMTING SOIL CONDITIONS:
Minimum Compaction -- 90% for "disturbed" soils. (Existing
fill, newly placed fill, plowed ground, etc.)
84% for natural, undisturbed soils.
-- 95% for pavement subgrade within 2' of finish grade and
pavement base course.
Expansive Soils -- Expansion index exceeding 20
Insufficient Fines -- Less than 40% passing the #4 sieve.
Oversized Particles -- Rocks over 10" in diameter.
PREPARATION FOR FILL:
Brush, trash, debris and detrimental soils were cleared from the area to receive fill. Detrimental
soil was removed to competent soil. Slopes exceeding 20% were stepped with benches 10' or
greater in width. The area to be filled was scarified to a 6" depth and compacted.
FILL MATERIAL:
Contained sufficient fines and did not contain oversized particles or excessive organics. Special
attention was given to the disposition of any oversized rock, organic soils and expansive soils.
Please read this report carefully. If you have any questions, please contact our office. This
opportunity to be of service is sincerely appreciated.
