Faulting or Secondary seismic hazards such as, lateral spreading or seismically-induced settlement or landslides are unlikely within the site bounds. 3. The liquefaction potential in the majority of the site is unlikely. However, in the western portion of the site, liquefaction may be considered as likely due to the occurrence of ground water within 40 feet of the ground' surface and the existence of loose to medium dense alluvium within the ground water zone. 4. Due to the loose nature of the near surface soils, alluvial removals will be necessary. The depths of the existing alluvial removals in the majority of the site is anticipated to be on the order of 3 to 5 feet below the existing grade or below the proposed bottom of footing elevations, whichever is greater. The actual depths of removal should be established in the field by inspection and density testing during grading. 5. The estimated shrinkage of the near surface on-site alluvial materials is 12 to 15 percent. 3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION The site consists of approximately ll7 acres located northeast of the intersection of Margarita and Winchester Roads, Temecula, California. The project is bounded by Santa Gertrudis Creek to the north, Winchester Road to the east and south, 'and Margarita Road to the west. Topographically. the site generally consists of a relatively flat parcel of land which slopes to the southwest at less than 1 percent. The site varies in elevation from 1053~ feet in the western,portion of the site, to approximately 1085 feet in the northeast portion of the project. Currently, the Santa Gertrudis Creek traverses the northern portion of the site. Man-made developments in the site include several subsurface and surface irrigation lines throughout the site, several dirt access roads which traverse the project, and a ground water production well in the southwest portion of the site. The majority of the site has previously been utilized as open agricu~tural land. t I I I I I I I I I I U I n n I u I I I Mr. Gary Kat:z Bedford Properties July 12, 1991 Page 4 4.0 SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION Our field investigation of the site included the drilling of 6 exploratory borings to a maximum depth of 49.5 feet, the excavation of l2 test-pits to depths of 5 to 8 feet, and the excavation of approximately 511 lineal feet of exploratory trench. The borings were drilled with an 8-inch diameter hollow-stem, auger, powered by a truck-mounted rotary drilling rig. The exploratory test-pits and trenches were excavated with a Case Model 580 backhoe. A previous subs~rface investigation of the site was conducted by Highland Geotechnical Consultants, Inc., 1989. Additionally, geotechnical investigations of the north and west adjacent properties were performed by Converse Consultant Inland Empire, 1990, and RANPAC Soils, Inc., 1991, respectively. These and other referenced reports were reviewed and considered in our evaluation of the subsurface soil, geologic, and ground water conditions of the site. The approximate locations of the exploratory borings and test- pits performed for the preparation of this report, and the previous exploratory borings performed in the site by Highland Geotechnical Consultants, 1989, are shown on the Geotechnical Maps of the project, Plates 1 & 2, included in Appendix F. Our exploratory trench locations are shown on Plate 3. The logs of exploratory borings and test-pits are presented in Appendix B. The exploratory trench logs are shown on Plate 4. 4.1 Laboratory Testinq Proqram samples of the materials obtained during our field investigation were taken to the laboratory for testing. The testing program consisted of particle-size analyses, sand equivalent determinations, direct shear testing, maximum dry density/optimum moisture content determinations, expansion index tests and sulfate tests. The laboratory testing was performed on bulk samples of materials anticipated to be in the areas of building and/or pavement support. The test results and descriptions of testing procedures are included in Appendix C, Laboratory Test Results. ~ I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 1991 Page 5 5.0 GEOLOGY 5.1 Geoloqic settinq The site is located within the peninsular Ranges Geomorphic Province of Southern California. The Peninsular Ranges, which extend southward from the Los Angeles Basin through Baja California, are characterized by Mesozoic age intrusive rock masses flanked by volcanic, metasedimentary, and sedimentary rock. The Peninsular Ranges have a general northwest-trending structural ,grain that includes such geologic features as faults, bedding and foliation trends, and geologic contacts. Lateral displacement and uplift of the region has occurred on a series of major, northwest-trending faults which are thought to be related to the regional tectonic framework. Some of these fault zones have remained active to the present time which include the Elsinore Fault Zone (Wildomar Fault zone) located approximately 1.0 mile southwest of the site. Locally, the site is underlain by 20 to 40 feet of loose to medium dense alluvial deposits which are underlain by dense to very dense older alluvium of the pauba Formation. 5.2 Geoloqic Units 5.2.l Recent Alluvium (Map Symbol - Oall Recent alluvium in the site generally consists of fluvial and stream deposited silts, sandy silts, and sands. These materials were found to be loose to medium dense in consistency, and very low to low in expansion potential. 5..2.2 Pauba Formation (Map Symbol - Opl Underlying the recent alluvial material at depths of 20 to 40 feet below the ground surface, is the Pleistocene age pauba Formations. This geologic unit was found to consist of medium dense to dense silts, silty sands, and sands. a.. I I I I I I I I n u I I I I I I I . m Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 199,1 Page 6 5.3 structural Geoloqv The dominant structural feature in the area is the northwest-striking Elsinore Fault Zone. The Elsinore Fault Zone fits the dominant northwest-southeast structural and regional tectonic pattern displayed by other ,fault systems, including the San Andreas and San Jacinto Fault Zones. The Elsinore Fault Zone extends for more than 200 kID from Corona on the north to the international boundary with Mexico and beyond on the south (Biehler and other, 1964). Individual faults in the zone are generally less than 1-2 kID long, although several have continuous mapped lengths in excess of 25 kID (Weber, 1963). The Elsinore Fault Zone is a prominent and youthful structural boundary that separates the perris Block (English, 1926) along its eastern side from the Santa Ana Mountains along its western side. The term Elsinore Trough is commonly used to describe the fault controlled graben valley between Corona and upper Wolf Valley. Geologic mapping by Kennedy (l977), indicates that the eastern side of the Elsinore Trough (Wi1domar Fault Zone) is composed principally of right-stepping, strike-slip faults, that have a west-dipping normal component, whereas the western site (Willard Fault Zone) is composed of a series of east-dipping, steeply inclined faults. Locally, the Elsinore Fault Zone is divided into three principal northwest trending faults; the Wildomar Fault Zone located approximately l.O mile southwest, the Willard Fault Zone located 1.7 miles southwest. and the Murrieta Hot Springs Fault Zone located l.5 miles to the north. Most individual faults of the Willard Fault Zone can be traced for only a kilometer or two and many for less than a few hundred meters. The faults have a complex discontinuous relationship to one another and only as a group form a through-going zone (Kennedy, 1977). The Willard Fault Zone is not classified as active by either the State or County and no known evidence of recency has been encountered. The Murrieta Hot Springs Fault Zone is composed of several faults that have an average strike of N75W and a \f> I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Mr. Gary Katz Bedford properties July 12, 1991 Page 7 dip of 80S (Kennedy, 1977). The Murrieta Hot springs Fault Zone has been mapped by Kennedy and others, 1977, as being nearly continuous from the southeast portion of Murrieta to Murrieta Hot Springs. The Murrieta Hot Springs Fault is not currently classified as an active faul t by state or local agencies. However, recent evidence of Holocene age activity has been recognized by state and local agencies, therefore, it is suspected that, the Murrieta Hot Springs Fault may be classified as active at a future date. The Wildomar Fault Zone is a northwest-striking, west dipping, high-angle normal fault. The Wildomar Fault, despite greater micro-seismicity (Kennedy, 1977), is assumed to have a recurrence interval of 300-450 years (Rockwell, 1986). This fault zone is presently considered active and is included within the Alquist- Priolo Special Studies Zone. The regional geology of the site (Kennedy, 1977) is shown on Figure 2. The site is currently not located within the State Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zone or in the County Subsidence Zone. 5.4 Drainaqe Drainage of the site is generally accomplished by downward surface percolation and sheetflow in a southwest direction. The southwest flowing Santa Gertrudis Creek traverses the north portion of the site. 5.5 Ground Water Based on encountered ground water depths during our subsurface investigation of the site on June 26, 1991, and well data from 9 water wells in and adjacent to the site (Department of Water Resources, Bulletin No. 91-20), the historic regional high ground water levels vary from 35~ feet below the ground surface, in the western portion of the site, to 50~ feet in the eastern portion of the project. Localized perched thickness from 2 to 4 excess of 22 feet ground water zones, varying in feet, were encountered at depths in below the ground surface during \\ I :-"r" \' '-/IU'~,,~ '''''''.~\:Y./~'' ,v \.~."~.,, ~J """' ' " g ,..JL.\'M~4;~-'_,V D - ~~~... ~~~'-OIr"J~~ I ,.",./(''\.

During its design life, the site is expected to experience ground motions from earthquakes on regional and/or local causative faults. We have utilized a computer program titled EQFAULT, prepared by Blake (1989), to evaluate potential ground shaking as a result of the maximum anticipated earthquake that may occur along local and/or regional faults. This program provides deterministic site pgrameters in terms of ground shaking for causative events along regional faults within a 100-mile radius about the site. Figure 3 shows the geographic locations of these faults in relation to the site. Figure 4 compares the distance of the causative faults and the peak horizontal acceleration that could be produced at the site during a seismic event. A list of deterministic site parameters for the known seismically active faults within a 100 mile radius of the site is presented in Appendix D. Based on the Deterministic seismic Parameters listed in Appendix D, the Wildomar Fault Zone is considered the causative fault, located approximately 1.0 mile southwest of the site. A maximum probable earthquake of magnitude 6.75 along the wildomar Fault Zone near the site could produce a peak horizontal acceleration on the order of .61g (Idriss,1987). The duration of strong motion is expected to exceed 26 seconds (Bolt, 1973). Peak acceleration is not, however, always representative of the accelerations for which structures are actually designed (Ploessel and Slosson, 1974). Repeatable high ground,acceleration from a 6.75 magnitude earthquake on the Elsinore Fault Zone are estimated to be on the order of . 40g. The design of structures should comply with the requirements of the governing jurisdictions and standard practices of the Structural Engineers Association of California. \7 I I I I I ~ I ( I '\ 0 50 100 / I I I I SCALE (M;[o.) n n ,SAN FRANC[SCO I n I U U ~O "b, I SITE LOCATION (+): '" ~ ------------ Latitude - 33.5030 N I Longitude - 117,1380 W MARGARITA MEADOWSBUSINESS PARK I CALIFORNIA FAULT MAP m wo: 019107:00 Figure 3 I \A., I I I 5: Cf) 0 0 w 0 ex) ..,. :::C 0 <( ~ n ~ CI) I ::) ('-.. ... 0 ~ :r: ~ Cl I- 0 u:: (}:: XX I x~x x 0 I L5 X xx;t< X X W X ~ X e- X X X 0 X E >< X X ::) ><< X ----- W l- I ....J oW 0 Ul CO ~() z W <( z 0 ~ CO ~ ..J 0 U1 I <( (}:: 0 =:J 0...

Our investigation found no evidence of active or potentially active faulting within the site bpunds. 6.3 Ground Surface Crackinq Based on review of investigation of the subsidence cracking unlikely due to the significant geOlogic the referenced reports and our site, the potential for ground due to tectonic mechanisms is absence of known faUlting and/or contact zones in the project. 6.4 Liauefaction soil liquefaction is the loss of soil strength due to increased pore water pressures caused by a significant seismic event. It occurs primarily in loose to medium dense cohesionless soils occurring near and within the ground water zone. It consists of the re-arrangement of the soil particles into a denser condition resulting, in this case, in localized areas of settlement, sand boils, and flow failures. Based on our review of the referenced reports and the soils encountered during our subsurface exploration of the site on June 26, 1991, the liquefaction potential in the majority of the site is unlikely. However, in the western portion of the site, liquefaction may be considered as likely due to the occurrence of ground water within 40 feet of the ground surface and the ex.istence of loose to medium dense alluvium within the ground, water zone. It is our opinion, that liquefaction mitigation should be implemented in the western portion of the,site. This liquefaction prone area is outlined on the enclosed Geotechnical Map, Plate 1, included in Appendix. F. It is also our opinion that within areas of the observed perched ground water zones, liquefaction is \fo I I I I n I I n u I I I U U U I I I m Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 1991 Page 10 likely to occur, however, due to the relatively thin zones of saturated soils and the depths of the observed perched groundwater, in excess of 20 feet, it is unlikely that surface deformation due to liquefaction will occur. Provided the site is graded as recommended in section 9.0 of this report, it is our opinion that adverse affects due to liquefaction in the western portion of the site would be reduced to acceptable limits. 6.5 Potential for Earthquake Induced Floodinq and Seiches The current area designated as the laO-year floodplain for the Temecula Creek exceeds the inundation area that would result during instantaneous failure of Skinner or Vail Reservoirs. Therefore, it is our opinion that the project site has a low potential for earthquake-induced flooding or seiches. 7.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS The site is generally underlain by 20 to 40 feet of loose to medium dense alluvial deposits which are underlain by dense to very dense older alluvium of the Pauba Formation. These materials should exhibit very low to low expansion potential and moderate strength characteristics when used as engineered fill materials as recommended in this report. Ground Mater in the site varies in depth from 35~ feet below the existing ground surface in the western portion of the site, to 50~ feet below the existing ground surface in the eastern portion of the project. 8.0 AERIAL PHOTOGRAPH LINEAMENT STUDy The purpose of this portion of the investigation was to identify potential fault related features within or near the property based on lineaments observed from the referenced aerial photographs and from the referenced reports. Kennedy, 1977, mapped two linear topographic features which may suggest surficial faulting projecting toward the site. These two mapped linear features and two additional lineaments identified by our aerial photograph analysis are shown on Plate 3 and, are summarized as follows: \1- I I I I I I I I n I I I U U I I I I m Mr. Gary Kat:z Bedford Properties July 12, 1991 Page 11 Lineament Map SYmbol L-1 L-2 Remarks This is a weak, discontinuous lineament consisting of possible ridge offsets and in- line drainages. This lineament has been mapped by Kennedy, 1977, as a linear topographic surficial fault feature, trending' approximately N69W and 3000 feet in length. This lineament is observed in the Pleistocene age Pauba Formation sediments northwest of the ,project site. We did not observe it on aerial photos to project southeast across the Recent age alluvium on the site. Trench FT-1 was excavated across the trace of L-1. We observed a calcareous fracture zone, approximately three feet wide at station 1+41. This fracture zone strikes approximately N20W, dipping nearly vertical, and extends from the plow zone to a depth of six feet. continuous Pauba strata underlie the fracture zone and are not displaced by it. These fractures may have been caused by ancient earthquake shaking, subsequently infiltrated by surface water precipitating CaC03. A zone of locally increased moisture was observed at station 0+25. We deepened the trench to ten feet and found continuous, unbroken pauba beds below the moisture zone. Based on our trenching and site observations it is our opinion that L-1 is not fault related. Its orientation is within the range of regional bedding and is probably controlled by the underlying bedrock structure. This lineament consists of very weak, discontinuous drainage alignments. This lineament has been mapped by Kennedy, 1977, as a linear topographic surficial fault feature, trending approximately N25W and 6000 feet in length. This lineament is observed in the Pauba Formation northwest of the site. We did not observe it projecting to the southeast across the alluvium on the site. Trench FT-3 was excavated across the trace of L-2. We observed two calcareous lined fractures at \% I I U I I I I n I I U I I I I I I I I Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 1991 Page l2 L-3 stations 1+21 and 1+31, both striking N5E, dipping vertical. Both fractures extend from the base of the Bt Soil Horizon to a depth of 2.5 feet, where they die out in Pauba Formation and are underlain by continuous, unbroken Pauba beds. The strike of these fractures does not correspond to the trend of L-2. We observed a contact between Colluvium and the underlying Bt Soil Horizon at station 1+05, which corresponds closely to the alignment of L-2 as mapped by Kennedy, 1977. Based on trenching and site observations, we conclude that L-2 is not fault related. Its trend is within the range of regional bedding and is probably controlled by the underlying bedrock structure. This lineament consists of a weak, discontinuous alignment of topographic saddles and contrasting vegetation, trending approximately N41W and 600 feet in length. This lineament is observed in the pauba Formation northwest of the site. We did not observe it projecting to the southeast across the site. Trench FT-2 was excavated across the trend of L-3. We observed a calcareous lined fracture at station 1+60. The strike of this fracture is N32W, dipping vertical. This fracture has a similar trend and is in close proximity to L-3, however we did not observe fault displacement of the Pauba beds and overlying Bt Soil Horizon along this fracture. The Bt Soil Horizon occurs on the underlying Pauba Formation. This soil dates a relict geomorphic surface at least 35,000 years old based upon the soil reddening, blocky to prismatic structure, moderately thick and continuous clay films on pad faces and regional correlation. The contact between the Bt Soil Horizon and the underlying Pauba Formation is continuous and unbroken. Based on trenching and site observations we conclude that L-3 is not fault related, however, it may correspond to an ancient, short, discontinuous, fracture. We do not consider it to be hazardous to human occupancy \ C\,. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 199,1 Page 13 structures. The exploratory trench logs are shown on Plate 3, Appendix F. L-4 This lineament consists of a weak, discontinuous alignment of topographic saddles and contrasting vegetation, trending approximately N32W and 500 feet in length. This lineament is observed in the pauba Formation northwest of the site. We did not observe it projecting to the southeast across the site. Trench FT-2 was excavated across the trend of L-4. We observed two calcareous iined fractures at stations 0+18 and 0+21. Their strikes are N70W, dipping 66N, and N10E, dipping vertical. We did not observe fault displacement of the Pauba Formation along these fractures nor did we observe displacement of the overlying Bt soil Horizon. Based on trenching and site observations, we conclude that L-4 is not fault related, however, it may correspond to a short, discontinuous fracture zone. We do not consider it to be hazardous to human occupancy structures. Our exploratory trench logs are presented as Plate 4. 9.0 GEOTECHNICAL EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS 9.1 General Based on the results of our investigation, the proposed development is feasible from a geotechnical standpoint provided the recommendations contained in this report are implemented during planning, design and construction. Recommendations for site grading and design of building foundations, pavements, and slabs are presented in the following sections of this report. Suggested specifications for site grading are included in Appendix E. A summary of our findings is contained in the "Executive Summary", section 2.0. 1.fJ I I I I I I I I I I U I I I I I I m I Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 1991 Page 14 9.2 Gradinq and Earthwork 9..2 .1 9.2.2 site Clearinq Prior to grading, the site should be cleared of existing vegetation and any miscellaneous debris. Holes resulting from the removal of trees, brush, buried obstructions, or other undesirable materials, which would extend below finished site grades, should be backfilled with properly compacted fill soil approved by the project Geotechnical Consultant. The cleared and stripped materials should not be incorporated in fills, but should be removed from the site or used in landscape areas as approved by the Geotechnical Consultant. Preparation of Existinq Soils/Alluvial Removals Due to the loose nature of the near surface soils, alluvial removals will be necessary. The depths of the existing alluvial removals in the majority of the site is anticipated to be on the order of 3 to 5 feet below the existing grade or below the proposed bottom of footing elevations, whichever is greater. The actual depths of removal should be established in the field by inspection and density testing during grading. The overexcavation and compacted fill placement should extend laterally a minimum of 5 feet beyond the outer edges of exterior footings. The overexcavated soils may be used for compacted fill provided they are free of decomposable organic materials and fragments greater than l2-inches in diameter. FOllowing overexcavation, the exposed soils/bedrock should be scarified to a depth of at least 8 in, brought to near-optimum moisture content, and compacted to a least 90% of the maximum laboratory dry density, as v.. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I D I I Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 1991 Page 15 9.2.3 9.2.4 9.2.5 determined 'by ASTM Standard Test Method D 1557, prior to overlying fill placement. Artificial Fill Removals Complete artificial fill removals beneath building pad areas are recommended. Artificial fill removals beneath site improvements should be recommended on an individual basis depending on the type of improvement. Fill Placement Fill soils should be placed in 6 to 8 in thick loose lifts, brought to near optimum moisture content and compacted to a minimum 90% of the maximum dry density, as determined by ASTM Test Method D 1557. Fill imported from off-site areas should have low to very low expansion potential. Imported soils should be approved by the Geotechnical Engineer prior to use. At least two working days notice should be allowed for approval. If laboratory testing is necessary to obtain approval of the import source, an additional 1 to 2 days should be allowed. Suggested "Standard Grading and Earthwork Specifications" are provided in Appendix E. Subdrainaqe Due to the apparent medium to high permeabilities of the in site materials and the relatively flat nature of the site, subdrains are not anticipated. 9.3 Earthwork And Settlement Considerations 9.3.1 Shrinkaqe and Subsidence of Natural Ground The estimated shrinkage of the near on-site alluvial materials is 12 percent. surface to 15 tP I I I I I I I I I I U I D n U I I I I Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 1991 Page 16 The amount of shrinkage will depend on the existing in-place densities and moisture contents of these materials and grading methods. Subsidence of natural ground, due to the movement of construction equipment, is expected to be approximately 0.2 feet. 9.3.2 Foundations Provided the site is graded as recommended by this report, total and differential settlements of footings supported on the recommended zone of properly compacted fill are not expected to exceed 3/4 and 1/2 inch, respectively. These settlements should occur primarily during construction. 9.4 Surface and Subqrade Drainaqe Surface runoff onto down-slope areas should be minimized to prevent saturation of underlying soils. In no case should water be diverted from a graded pad or street area onto a constructed or natural slope in an uncontrolled manner. To enhance future performance in the building pad areas, it: is recommended that all pad drainage and runoff from roof drains be collected and directed away from proposed structures to proper disposal areas. In soil areas, we recommend that a minimum 2% gradient away from footings be maintained; 1% gradient for improved swales. It, is important that drainage patterns be established at the time of fine grading and maintained throughout the life of the project. It should be understood that lateral drainage patterns, landscaping, planters and other tmprovements, as well as irrigation and variations in seasonal rainfall, all affect subsurface moisture conditions which, in turn, could affect structural performance. 9.5 Foundation and Slab Recommendations 9.5.1 General The on-site soils, when used as compacted fill materials, are expected to have very low to low expansion potential. This expansion "j.:!:1 I I I I I I I I I I I B I I I I I I I 11r. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 1991 Page 17 9.5.2 9.5.3 9.5.4 potential should be confirmed at the conclusion of rough grading. A #4 reinforcing bar placed at the top and bottom of continuous footings are considered the minimum reinforcement for continuous footings to resist differential support of the foundation system. A structural Engineer should evaluate configurations and reinforcement requirements for structural loadings, shrinkage and temperature stresses. Our recommendations are considered generally consistent with the Standards of Practice. The potential for favorable foundation performance can be further enhanced by maintaining uniform moisture conditions during and after construction. Foundations Continuous and spread footings founded on the recommended zone of properly compacted fill may be designed at a preliminary allowable bearing capacity of 2,500 psf. We have assumed a minimum footing depth of 18 inches below grade. The above recommendations are preliminary in nature and are subject to change subsequent to review of specific grading and development plans. Concrete Slabs Concrete slab-on-grades should be supported on a properly compacted subgrade as recommended under Section 9.2, "Grading and Earthwork". Additionally, a vapor barrier consisting of a 6 mil polyethylene sheeting overlain by 2 inches of clean sand base should be placed between the bottom of the floor slabs and subgrade soils or bedrock. Lateral Load Resistance Lateral loads against building foundations may be resisted by friction between the bottom of tA I I I I I I I I I I I n I I I D I I . Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 1991 Page 18 9.5.5 9.5.6 footings and the supporting soils or bedrock. An allowable friction coefficient of 0.35 is recommended for soil and bedrock areas. As an alternative, and provided the footings are cast neatly against compacted soils or bedrock, an allowable lateral bearing pressure equal to 300 lb/ft2/ft of depth may be used, but the maximum lateral bearing should be limited to 2000 lbjft2. A combination of friction and lateral bearing pressure may be used provided the latter is reduced by l/3. Flatwork Concrete flatwork in exterior building areas should be designed according to the expected soil conditions and anticipated usage. The recommendations given in section 9.5.3, "Concrete Slabs", should be applied where pertinent. In addition, construction joints should be provided to reduce the effects of any possible soil movement and concrete shrinkage. Buildinq and Footinq Setbacks Buildings located adjacent to the top or toe of a slope should be set back 1/3 the height of the slope at a minimum of 5 ft and a maximum of 40 ft. This distance should be measured horizontally from the face of the slope to the closest element of the structures. 9.6 Slope Stabilitv The relatively flat nature of the proposed development is not conducive to slope instability. In the event that slopes. in the site are designed at slope heights greater than 10 feet, or at slope ratios in excess of 2: 1 (horizontal:vertical), a slope stability evaluation should. be performed. 9.7 Soil Sulfate Content Implications Based ,upon our laboratory test results on near surface soils encountered on this site, Type II Portland Cement may be used in the construction of concrete foundations 15 I I II I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties \July 12, 1991 :Page 19 or slabs in contact with subgrade soils. This condition should be confirmed by additional sulfate testing at the completion of rough grading. 9.8 utility Trench Backfill It is our opinion that utility trench backfill consisting of the on-site soils can be best placed by mechanical compaction. This backfill should be placed at a minimum of 90% (relative compaction) of the maximum laboratory dry density, as determined by ASTM Test Method D 1557, or as otherwise specified. If utility:contractors indicate that it is undesirable to use compaction equipment in close proximity to a buried conduit, we recommend the utilization of light-weight mechanical equipment and/or shading of the conduit with clean granular material which could be thoroughly jetted in-place about the conduit prior to initiating mechanical compaction procedures. Other methods of utility trench compaction may also be appropriate as approved by the Geotechnical Engineer at the time of construction. Suggested guidelines for trench backfill specifications are included in Appendix E. Trenches deeper than 5 ft in depth should be laid back or shored in accordance with California and Federal OSHA requirements. 9.9 Retaininq Walls Where retaining walls or subsurface structural walls are planned, they should be designed in accordance with the following criteria: unrestrained Walls Backfill Soil Tvpe Level Backfill (Active/Passive) 2:1 Sloping Backfill (Active/Passive) On-Site Silty Sands/ Sands 33psf/482psf 46psf/337psf If restrained walls are to be used, the appropriate active pressures should be derived during the grading plan review when wall heights and restraint conditions are known. tJo I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 199.1 Page 20 Walls subject to surcharge loads should be designed for an additional uniform lateral pressure equal to l/3 of the indicated active pressure for unrestrained walls. The wall backfill should be well-drained to relieve possible hydrostatic pressures on the wall. Wall footings should be designed as recommended under Section 9.5, "Foundation and Slab Recommendations". Backfill behind retaining walls should be compacted as mentioned previously under Section 9.2, "Grading and Earthwork"! and as specified in Appendix D. 9.10 Pavement Desiqn Areas, to be paved with asphaltic concrete should be scarif,ied and moistened to near optimum conditions and compacted to at least 95 percent relative compaction to within 12-inches of sUbgrade elevations. Recommended pavement sections should be based on laboratory testing of the actual subgrade soils. 9.1l Gradinq and Foundation Plan Review As foundation and grading plans are completed, they should be forwarded to the Geotechnical Engineer for review for conformance with the intentions of the recommendations contained in this report. 9.12 Construction Monitorinq Continuous observation and testing under the direction of a Geotechnical Engineer and/or Engineering Geologist during, grading is essential to verify compliance with our recommendations and to confirm that the geotechnical conditions found are consistent with these investigations. The test borings, fault trenches and laboratory test data a:r;e believed representative of the project site; however, soil and bedrock conditions can vary significantly between test locations. As in most major projects, conditions revealed by excavation may be at variance with preliminary findings. If these conditions occur, the possible variations must be evaluated by the Project z.1 I I I I I I I I I I I I U U I I I m I Mr. Gary Katz Bedford Properties July 12, 1991 Page 21 Geotechnical Engineer and/or Geologist and designs adjusted as required or alternate designs recommended. 10.0 LIMITATIONS OF INVESTIGATION Our investigation was performed using the degree of care and skill ordinarily exercised, under similar circumstances, by reputable Geotechnical Engineers and Geologists practicing in this or similar localities. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made as to the conclusions and professional advice included in this report. . The samples taken and used for testing and the observations made are believed representative of the entire project; however, soil and geologic conditions can vary significantly between exploratory locations. As in most projects, conditions revealed by excavation may be at variance. with preliminary findings. If this occurs, the changed conditions must be evaluated by the Project Geotechnical Engineer and Geologist and designs adjusted as required or alternate designs recommended.

Classification Soils were ~lassified, visually, according to the Unified Soil Classification System. Classification was supplemented by index tests, such as particle size analysis, moisture content, and sand equivalent tests. B. Particle Size Determination Particle size determination, consisting of mechanical analyses (sieve) was performed on representative samples of the on-site soils in accordance with ASTM D 422-63. Test results are shown on Figures C-1 through C-7. c. Maximum Densitv/Optimum Moisture Content Maximum density/optimum moisture content relationships were determined for typical samples of the on-site soils. The laboratory l?tandard used was ASTM D 1557-78. The test results are summarized on Figure C-10, Table I. D. Expansion Expansion tests were performed on representative samples of the on-site soils remolded and tested under a surcharge of 144 lb/ft2 in a~cordance with the Uniform Building Code Standard No. 29-2. ,The test results are summarized on Figure C-10, Table II. Sulfate Sulfate tests were performed on representative samples of the on-site soils. The laboratory standard used was California 417A. The ~est results are presented on Figure C-10, Table III. Sand Equivalent Sand equivalent tests were performed on representative samples of the subsurface soils to supplement visual classifications and mechanical analysis. The laboratory standard used was ASTM D 2419-74. The test results are presented on Figure C- lO, Table IV. Direct Shear Test Direct shear strength tests were performed on representative samples of the on-site soils remolded to 90% relative compaction (ASTM D 1557). To simulate possible adverse field conditions, the test specimens were saturated prior to shearing. A saturating device was used which permitted the samples to absorb moisture while preventing volume change. The test results are presented on Figures C-8 and C-9. ~'Z-- I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 100.00 75.00 ~ Z (f1 (f1 <( 0.. f- 50,00 Z w U IY W 0.. 25,00 SIEVE ANALYSIS SIEVE SIZES - U,S, STANDARD 3/8 4 10 20 40 100 200 I , I I I I I 0,00 - " - 1\ - - - - - - - - 100 10 0,01 0,1 PARTICLE DIAMETER (mm) RANPAC SOILS, INC.

Evaluations performed by the Geotechnical Consultant ,during the course of grading may result in subsequent recommendations which could supersede these specifications or the recommendations of the geotechnical report. 1.0 GENERAL 1.1 The Geotechnical Consultant is the Owner's or Developer's representative on the project. For the purpose of these specifications, observations by the Geotechnical Consultant include observations by the Soils Engineer, Geotechnical Engineer, Engineering Geologist, and those performed by persons employed by and responsible to the Geotechnical Consultant. 1.2 All clearing, site preparation, or earthwork performed on the project shall be conducted and directed by the Contractor under the supervision of the Geotechnical Consultant. l.3 The Contractor should be responsible for the safety of the project and satisfactory completion of all grading. During grading, the Contractor shall remain accessible. 1.4 Prior to the commencement of grading, the Geotechnical Consultant shall be employed for the purpose of providing field, laboratory, and office services for conformance with the recommendations of the geotechnical report and these specifications. It will be necessary that the Geotechnical Consultant provide adequate testing and observations so that he may determine that the work was accomplished as specified. It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to assist the Geotechnical Consultant and keep him apprised of work schedules and changes so that he may schedule his personnel accordingly. 1.5 It shall be the sole responsibility of the Contractor to provide adequate equipment and methods to accomplish the work in accordance with applicable grading codes, agency ordinances, these specifications, and the approved grading plans. If, in the opinion of the Geotechnical Consultant, unsatisfactory conditions, such as questionable soil, poor moisture condition, inadequate compaction, adverse weather, etc., are 1~ I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I il II I I Standard Grading and Earthwork specifications Page T'"o resulting in a quality of work less than required in these ,specifications, the Geotechnical Consultant will be empowered to reject the work and recommend that construction be stopped until the conditions are rectified. 1.6 It iS,the Contractor's responsibility to provide access to the Geotechnical Consultant for testing and/or grading observation purposes. This may require the excavation of test pits and/or the relocation of grading equipment. 1.7 A final report shall be issued by the Geotechnical Consultant attesting to the Contractor's conformance with these specifications. 2.0 SITE PREPARATION 2.1 All vegetation and deleterious material shall be disposed of off-site. This removal shall be observed by the Geotechnical Consultant and concluded prior to fill placement. 2.2 Soil, alluvium, or bedrock materials determined by the Geotechnical Consultant as being unsuitable for placement in compacted fills shall be removed from the site or used in open areas as determined by the Geotechnical Consultant. Any material incorporated as a part of a compacted fill must be approved by the Geotechnical consultant prior to fill placement. 2.3 After' the ground surface to receive fill has been cleared, it shall be scarified, disced, or bladed by the Contractor until it is uniform and free from ruts, hollows, hummocks, or other uneven features which may prevent uniform compaction. The scarified ground surface shall then be brought to optimum moisture, mixed as required, and compacted as specified. If the scarified zone is greater than twelve inches in depth, the excess shall be removed and placed in lifts not to exceed six inchesor less. Prior to placing fill, the ground surface to receive fill shall be observed, tested, and approved by the Geotechnical Consultant. io I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Standard Grading and Earthwork Specifications Page Three 2.4 Any underground structures or cavities such as cesspools, cisterns, mining shafts, tunnels, septic tanks, wells, pipe lines, or others are to be removed or treated in a manner prescribed by the Geotechnical Consultant. 2.5 In cut-fill transition lots and where cut lots are partially in soil, colluvium or unweathered bedrock materials, in order to provide uniform bearing conditions, the bedrock portion of the lot extending a minimum of 5 feet outside of building lines shall be overexcavated a minimum of 3 feet and replaced with compacted fill. Greater overexcavation couldbe required as determined by Geotechnical Consultant where deep fill: of 20+ feet transitions to bedrock over a short distance. Typical details are given on Figure D- 1. 3.0 COMPACTED FILLS 3.1 Material to be placed as fill shall be free of organic matter and other deleterious substances, and shall be approved by the Geotechnical Consultant. Soils of poor gradation, expansion, or strength characteristics shall be placed in areas designated by Geotechnical Consultant or shall be mixed with other soils to serve as satisfactory fill material, as directed by the Geotechnical Consultant. 3.2 Rock fragments less than twelve inches in diameter may be utilized in the fill, provided: 1. They are not placed in concentrated pockets. 2. There is a minimum of 75% overall of fine grained material to surround the rocks. 3. The distribution of rocks is supervised by the Geotechnical Consultant. 3.3 Rocks greater than twelve inches in diameter shall be taken off-site, or placed in accordance with the recommendations of the Geotechnical Consultant in areas designated as suitable for rock disposal. (A typical detail for Rock Disposal is given in Figure 0-2. ~\ I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I .standard Grading and Earthwork Specifications 'Page Four 3.4 Material that is spongy, subject to decay, or otherJise considered unsuitable shall not be used in the compacted fill. 3.5 Representative samples of materials to be utilized as compacted fill shall be analyzed by the laboratory of the Geotechnical Consultant to determine their physical properties. If any material other than that previously tested is encountered during grading, the appropriate analysis of this material shall be conducted by the Geotechnical Consultant as soon as possible. 3.6 Material used in the compacting process shall be evenly spread, watered, processed, and compacted in thin lifts not to exceed six inches in thickness to obtain a uniformly dense layer. The fill shall be placed and compacted on a horizontal plane, unless otherJise approved by the Geotechnical Consultant. 3.7 If the moisture content or relative compaction varies from that required by the Geotechnical Consultant, the Contractor shall rework the fill until it is approved by the Geotechnical Consultant. 3.8 Each layer shall be compacted to 90 percent of the maximum density in compliance with the testing method specified by the contrOlling governmental agency or ASTM 1557-70, whichever applies. If compaction to a lesser percentage is authorized by the controlling governmental agency because of a specific land use or expansive soil condition, the area to receive fill compacted to less than 90 percent shall either be delineated on the grading plan or appropriate reference made to the area in the geotechnical report. 3.9 All fills shall be keyed and benched through all topsoil, colluvium alluvium, or creep material, into sound bedrock or firm material where the slope receiving fill exceeds a ratio of five horizontal to one vertical, in accordance with the recommendations of the Geotechnical Consultant. 3.10 The key for side hill fills shall be a minimum width of 15 feet within bedrock or firm materials, unless otherJise specified in the geotechnical report. (See detail on Figure D-3.) f6V I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I standard Grading and Earthwork Specifications Page Five 3.11 Subdrainage devices shall be constructed in compliance with the ordinances of the controlling governmental agency, or with the recommendations of the Geo.technical Consul,tant. (Typical Canyo.n Subdrain details are given in Fi~re D-4.) 3.12 The contractor will be required to obtain a minimum relative compactio.n of 90 percent out to the finish slope ~ace of fill slopes, buttresses, and stabilization fills. This may be achieved by either over building the slope and cutting back to. the compacted core, or by direct compaction of the slope face with suitable equipment, or by any other procedure which produces the required compaction approved by the Geotechnical Consultant. 3.13 Al,l fill slopes should be planted ar protected from erosion by other methods specified in the Geotechnical report. 3.14 Fill-over-cut slopes shall be properly keyed through topsail, calluvium or creep material into rack or firm materials, and the transition shall be stripped of all soil prior to placing fill. (See detail on Figure D- 3. ) 4.0 CUT SLOPES 4.1 The Geotechnical Consultant shall inspect all cut slopes at vertical intervals not exceeding ten feet. 4.2 If any conditions not anticipated in the geotechnical report such as perched water, seepage, lenticular or canfined strata of a potentially adverse nature, unfavo.rably inclined bedding, joints or fault planes encountered during grading, these conditio.ns shall be analyzed by the Geotechnical Consultant, and recammendations shall be made to. mitigate these problems. (Typical details far stabilization af a portion af a cut slope are given in Figures D-3a and D- 5. ) 4.3 Cut slapes that face in the same direction as the prevailing drainage shall be pratected from slape wash by a non-eradible interceptor swale placed at the tope of the slope. ~o .

The sand backfill shall be uniformly jetted into place before the controlled backfill is placed over the sand. 5.3 The on-site materials, or other soils approved by the Geotechnical consultant shall be watered and mixed as necessary prior to placement in lifts over the sand backfill. 5.4 The controlled backfill shall be compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum laboratory density as determined by the ASTI D1557-70 or the controlling governmental agency. 5.5 Fieldldensity tests and inspection of the backfill procedures shall be made by the GeoteChnical Consultant during backfilling to see that proper moisture content and uniform compaction is being maintained. The contractor shall provide test holes and exploratory pits as required by the Geotechnical consultant to enable sampling and testing. ,6.0 GRADING CONTROL 6.1 Inspection of the fill placement shall be provided by the Geotechnical consultant during the progress of grading. 2A I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Standard Grading and Earthwork Specifications Page Seven 6.2 In general, density tests should be made at intervals not exceeding two feet of fill height or every 500 cubic yards of fill placed. This criteria will vary depending on soil conditions and the size of the job. In any event, an adequate number of field density tests shall be made to verify that the required compaction is being achieved. 6.3 Density tests should also be made on the surface mate~ial to receive fill as required by the Geotechnical Consultant. 6.4 All cleanout, processed ground to receive fill, key excavations, subdrains, and rock disposals should be inspected and approved by the Geotechnical Consultant prior to placing any fill. It shall be the Contractor's responsibility to notify the Geotechnical Consultant when such areas are ready for inspection. 7.0 CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS 7.1 Erosion control measures, when necessary, shall be provided by the Contractor during grading and prior to the completion and construction of permanent drainage controls. 7.2 Upon completion of grading and termination of inspections by the Geotechnical Consultant, no further filling or excavating, including that necessary for footings foundations, large tree wells, retaining walls, or other features shall be performed without the approval of the Geotechnical Consultant. 7.3 Care shall be taken by the Contractor during final grading to preserve any berms, drainage terraces, interceptor swales, or other devices of permanent nature on or adjacent to the property. ~ . _-::===~~COMP ACTED -:::===-::=::: _--=-=-~=-:=-::-~.f!..L.!- :...~.::::-:::-:-:. ---------------- -- --. ---------------~---------------::--...::""""....:-::::------~ --------~~------ --- _ __:_:_:_:_:_:_:_:_:__.:=:: ~ ~_::"_~_c::'_"": ~'" -----------~----j ~' ----------~-----~ ~?~ iPROJECTE~ PLANE . _-_-:::::-=-=-.=--:_:;:::-Z-::.::::=---::.;F--- I'to 1 maximum fro:,", ,oe __--=-_-_-_-_-;.;-z_-_-_-_-_-Z'-[ '-,"",;N . of slope to approvea ground --..:-----::?:-.?-..-------;..?::'"---~-k '\ _ --------..;::----------I!
