INTRODTJCnON
At the request of grading contractor Todd Simon, B & F Soils has provided all the
field supervision and compaction testing of all fill soil emplacements, and all the required
laboratory analysis necessary to control all of the grading operations. This soils
engineering work has been conducted in complete accordance with currently accepted
engineering techniques as set forth by the D.B.c., (Appendix, Chapter 33).
GENERAL-SITE PREPARATION
The general area involved in the grading was stripped of all vegetation, exposing
the underlying fill soils, which were thorougWy watered for several days using a
high-pressure oscillating-type sprinkler system.
The pre-watered fill soils were thorougWy processed and pre-mixed to optimum moisture
and stockpiled in close proximity to the major fill areas.

GENERALiEXCA V A nON AND GRADING PROCEDURES
The !,Jfading equipment used included a D-7 and D-4 Cat, both equipped with
ripper teeth and slope blades, a twenty-five cubic yard scraper used both for transporting
fill and for wheelrolling compaction, and a 2500-gallon water track for additional
moisture.
:e
The entire building pad area was completely on cut formation and the resulting fill
soils were spread over a large area in the thicknesses of 6 inches ofless.
That area extending 5 feet beyond the building perimeter was overexcavated a
minimum of 36 inches and recompacted in place so as to minimize the effect of differential
settlement.
All the grading operations and compaction testing were completed in compliance
with the Uniform Building Code, (Appendix Chapter 33).
.GENERAL I,ADORA TORY TESTING
Maximum density determinations were made on the typical structural fill soils, as
accepted by the Uniform Building Code and the County ofRi'verside grading ordinances.
The maximum density determinations were made in accordance with AS.T.M. D1557-
70T, modified to use 25 blows on each of five layers with a 10-pound hammer falling 18
inches in a mold of 1/30 cubic foot volume.
Soil Type 1: Tan-brown coarse to fine sand and silt with some clay; SM and SC
according to U.S.C.S.; Maximum Density 126.5 p.c.f @ 8.8% Optimum
Moisture.

The results of the expansion tests performed on the remolded samples of the
typical backfill soils are as follows. The samples were compacted to over 90% relative
compaction and set up to be equal to 50% saturation, and then measured to full 100%
saturation after a period of several days and until no further expansion occurred in a
24-hour period in accordance with Table 29-C of the Uniform Building Code.

.
The typical fill soils involved in the grading process are essentially non-expansive
and as such will not require any special foundation design.
Settlement Criteria
The total settlement calculated to occur over the proposed project will be less than
1/2 inch and the differential settlement total will be 1/4 inch.
FIELD COMPACTION TESTING
The results of relative compaction testing throughout the building pad area were in
all instances at least 90% of the maximum soil density values obtained for Soil Type A,
based on theresults of testing methods (Drive Cylinder Method D2937-71 and/or Sand
Cone Method 01556-64).

RECOMMENDATIONS AND ADDITIONAL SOIL CRITERIA
.
Grading and Compaction Conclusions
The fill soils used in the grading operations consisted of coarse to fine sand and silt
with enoughc1ay-size component to provide an adequate binder. The field inspected and
approved fill soils were thoroughly processed and pre-mixed to optimum moisture. The fill
soils were emplaced in thin lifts and wheelrolled in multiple directions until the required
90% relative compaction test results were attained.
An area extending 5 feet beyond the outside building perimeter was overexcavated
a minimum of 36 inches and recompacted to 90% relative compaction test results. The
primary purpose of this grading operation was to minimize the amount of differential
settlement.
.
All grading operations were completed in accordance with the Uniform Building
Code, (Appendix, Chapter 33).

Approved Allowable Soil Bearing Values
The results oflaboratory analysis and direct shear testing, utilizing a controlled
rate of strain. 050 inch per minute under varying normal loads, has produced test results
indicating an angle of internal friction of30 with 100 p.s.f. available cohesion.
Utilizing the Terzaghi Bearing Capacity Equation with a factor of safety of3.0, the
following calculations have been determined:

1600 p.s.f (allowable for square or continuous footings 12" wide

1900 p.s.f (allowable for square or continuous footings 12" wide
and 18" deep);
2100 p.s.f (allowable for square or continuous footings 18" wide
and 18" deep);
2300 p.s.f (allowable for square or continuous footings 24" wide
and 18" deep).
Allowable soil bearing pressures may be increased by a factor of one-third
when considering momentary wind and seismic loadings which are not
considered to act simultaneously and is in accordance with the Uniform
Building Code.
Utility Trenches
All plumbing, utility and other trenches beneath the concrete slab should be
properly restored to minimum 90% compaction value comparable to the remaining
building pad.

Subgrade for Driveway and Parking
Care should be taken to properly backfill and compact any utility trenches involved
in subgrade areas that will be subsequently paved. This can be accomplished by
moistening the native soils and wheelrolling or mechanically tamping them so that the
utility trench and surrounding sub grade has approximately the same compaction, which
should be 90% or better.
Suggested Bavement Design
:e
All of the earth materials on the site are high maximum density with excellent
bearing values, and R-values would fall in the approximate 60 range, which is excellent
support for vehicular wheel loads. If concrete surfacing is desired, a 4-inch thick concrete
driveway could be placed directly on the compacted subgrade where the top 6 inches is
95% compaction.
If asphaltic concrete is utilized, then we would recommend that a minimum
thickness of3 inches of AC. be placed over 4 inches of Class II rock base, which is
compacted to minimum 95%. Asphaltic concrete could be placed directly on the
subgrade, which should be compacted to a minimum 95% also.
Soluble Sulfate Content
Numerous laboratory test results for the soluble sulfate content in soils in the
Temecula Valley area indicate 0 to minimal p.p.m. sulfate content, thus permitting the use
of Type II cement with a minimum compressive strength of2500 pounds per square inch.
