The property is located on the northeast corner of Highway I I I and Adams Street in the City of La Quinta, California. The preliminary plans provided by Smith Consulting Architects indicate that the proposed commercial complex will include several major retail stores along with attached shop buildings and several detached retail pads. The associated site improvements will include paved driveways and parking lots, underground utilities, and landscape areas. SCOPE OF WORK ' Fhe purpose of our investigation was to determine certain engineering characteristics of the near surface soils on the site in order to develop recommendations for foundation design and site preparation. Our investigation included field exploration, laboratory testing, engineering analysis and the preparation of this report. Evaluation of environmental issues or hazardous materials was not within the scope of services provided. Our investigation was performed in accordance with contemporary geotechnical engineering principles and practice. We make no other warranty, either express or implied. PROJECT DESCRIPTION rhe proposed project is located on the northeast comer of Highway 111 and Adams Street in the City of La Quinta, California. The preliminary site plan indicates that the project will include a retail complex }' occupying a total of 170,791 square feet and various associated site improvements. It is our assumption. that, the proposed commercial buildings will be of relatively lightweight reinforced masonry, steel -frame or wood -frame construction. The associated site improvements will include paved driveways and parking areas, landscape areas and various underground utilities. The project site is presently vacant. and the ground surface is covered with sparse weeds. Prior to our Field investigation the site was rough graded including cuts and fills that resulted in the creation of relatively level building pads. The previous rough grading is documented within our previous report dated May 3, 2000. Highway 11 I and Adams Street are paved adjacent to the site and there are existing underground utilities along the streets. Commerce Way and Postal Road have also been constructed. Based upon our previous experience with similar lightweight commercial/industrial structures, we expect that isolated column loads will be less than 80 kips and wall loading will be less than 4.0 kips per linear Foot. Future grading is expected to include minor cuts and fills to construct a level building pad and to accommodate site drainage. This does not include removal and recompaction of the foundation bearing soils within the building areas. If the anticipated foundation loading or site grading varies substantially from that assumed, the recommendations included in this report should be reevaluated. Sladden Engineerilrg February 17, 2004 -2- SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS i Project No. 544-4010 04-02-139 ' The site is underlain primarily by a generally thin profile of artificial fill soils overlying native fine - rained windblown sands. with scattered sandy silt layers. Recovered ring samples and sampler penetration resistance (as measured by blowcounts) indicate that the site soils are somewhat inconsistent in density but density appears to generally increase with depth. Relatively undisturbed samples indicate 4y density varying from 81 to 111 pcf. 7be site soils were found to be generally dry throughout the depth of our borings but some of the silty hyers were wet. Moisture content varying from 1 to 42 percent was determined for the samples obtained vithin our borings. ' laboratory classification testing indicates that the near surface soils consist primarily of fine grained silty sands. Expansion testing indicates that the surface soils are non -expansive and fall within the "very low" etpansion category in accordance with the Uniform Building Code classification system. The somewhat 1 inconsistent moisture conditions suggest that some of the 'near surface native soils underlying the site may tie susceptible to settlements due to hydroconsolidation and compression. Groundwater was not encountered in our borings and groundwater is expected to be in -excess of 100 feet ' below the existing ground surface. Groundwater should not be a factor in foundation design or construction. - CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS ■ Based upon our previous and recent field and laboratory investigations, it is our opinion that the proposed Pavilion at La Quinta commercial complex is feasible from a soil mechanic's standpoint provided that the ' recommendations included in this report are considered inbuilding foundation design and site preparation. Due to the somewhat inconsistent conditions of the near surface soils, remedial grading including overexcavation and recompaction is recommended for the proposed building areas. We recommend that remedial grading -within the proposed building areas include overexcavation and recompaction of the primary foundation bearing soils. Specific 'recommendations for site preparation are presented in the site grading section of this report. ' Groundwater was not encountered within our borings and groundwater is expected to be in excess of 100 feet below the existing ground surface. Due to the depth to groundwater, specific liquefaction analyses were not performed. Based upon the depth to groundwater, the potential for liquefaction and the related surficial affects of liquefaction impacting the site are considered negligible. ' - The site is located within an active seismic area of Southern California within approximately 8.7 kilometers of the San Andreas fault. Strong ground motion resulting from earthquake activity along the ' nearby San Andreas or San Jacinto fault systems is .likely to impact the site -during the anticipated lifetime of the structures. Structures should be designed by professionals familiar with'the geologic and seismic setting of the site. As a minimum, structure design should conform to Uniform Building Code (UBC) requirements for Seismic Zone 4. Pertinent seismic design criteria as outlined in the 1997 UBC, is summarized in Appendix C. Sladden Engineering February 17, 2004 -3- Project No: 544-4010 04-02-139 ' Cavingdid occur within each of our exploratory borings and the surface soils will be susceptible to caving within deeper excavations. All excavations should be constructed in accordance with the normal ' CaIOSHA excavation criteria. On the basis of our observations of the materials encountered, we anticipate that the subsoils will conform to those described by CaIOSHA as Type C. Soil conditions Gould be verified in the field by a "Competent person" employed by the Contractor. ' The surface soils encountered during our investigation were found to be non -expansive. Labratory testing indicated an Expansion Index of 0, which corresponds with the "very low" category in accordance with UBC Standard 18-2. If imported soils are to be used during grading, they should have an Expansion ' ladex of less than 20. _ The following recommendations present more detailed design criteria that have been developed on the ' basis of our field and laboratory investigation. Foundation Design: The results of our investigation indicate that either conventional shallow continuous footings or isolated pad footings that are supported upon properly compacted soils may be expected to provide satisfactory support for the proposed structures. Recompaction should be performed as described in the Site Grading Section of this report. Footings should extend at least 12 inches beneath lowest adjacent grade for single -story structures. Isolated square or rectangular footings at least 2 -feet square may be designed using an _., allowable bearing value of 2000 pounds per square foot. Continuous footings at least 12 inches wide may be designed using anallowable bearing value of 1800 pounds per square foot. Allowable increases of 200 psf for each additional 1 -foot of -width and 200 psf for each additional 6 -inches of depth may be utilized for larger footings. The maximum allowable bearing pressure should be 3000 psf. The allowable bearing pressures are for dead and frequently applied live loads and maybe increased by 1/3 to resist wind, seismic or other transient loading. Because of the hydro ' consolidation potential of some of the soils underlying the site, care should be taken to -see that bearing. soils are not allowed to become saturated- �from the ponding of rainwater or irrigation. Drainage from the building areas should be rapid and complete. ' The recommendations made in the preceding paragraphs are based on the assumption that all footings will be supported upon properly compacted engineered fill soils. All grading shall be performed under the testing and inspection of the Soils Engineer or his representative. Prior to the placement of concrete, we recommend that the footing excavations be inspected in order to verify that they extend into compacted soil and are free of loose and disturbed materials. Settlements: Settlements may result from the anticipated foundation 1oads. These estimated ' ultimate settlements are calculated to be a. maximum :of .f=inch when using the recommended bearing values. As a practical matter, differential settlements between footings can be assumed as one-half of the total settlement. 1 Sladden Engineering 4 - 10 February 17, 2004 -4- Project No. 544-4010 . 04-02-139 Lateral Design: Resistance to lateral loads can be provided by a combination of friction acting at the base of the slabs or foundations and passive earth pressure along the sides of the ' foundations. A coefficient of friction of 0.45 between soil and concrete may be used with dead load forces only. A passive earth pressure of 275 s per square foot, per foot of depth, may pound be used for the sides of footings, which are poured against properly compacted native soils. Passive earth pressure should be ignored within the upper 1 -foot except where confined(such beneath a floor slab). When used in combination, either the passive resistance or the coeffici -' of friction should be reduced by one-third. ent Retaining Walls: Retaining walls may be required to accomplish the proposed construction. Cantilever retaining walls may be designed using "active" pressures. Active pressures may be estimated using an equivalent fluid weight of 35 pcf for native backfill soils with level free - draining backfill conditions. ' For walls that are restrained, "at rest" pressures should be utilized in design. At rest pressures may be estimated using an equivalent fluid weight of 55 pcf for native backfill soils with level free -draining backfill conditions. ' Expansive Soils: Due to the prominence of non -expansive soils on the site, special expansive soil design criteria should not be necessary for the design of foundations and concrete slabs -on - grade. Final design criteria should be established by the Structural Engineer. Concrete Slabs -on -Grade: All surfaces to receive concrete slabs -on -grade should be underlain by recompacted soils as described in the Site Grading Section of this report. Where slabs are to receive moisture sensitive floor coverings or where dampness of the floor slab is not desired,. we recommend the use of an appropriate vapor barrier. Vapor barriers should be protected by at least two inches of sand in order to reduce the possibility of damage and to aid in obtaining uniform ' concrete curing. Reinforcement of slabs -on -grade in order to resist expansive soil pressures may not be required, however reinforcement will have a beneficial effect in containing . cracking due to concrete ' shrinkage. Temperature and shrinkage related cracking should be anticipated in all concrete slabs -on -grade. Slab reinforcement and the spacing of control joints should be determined by the Structural Engineer. ' Soluble Sulfates: The soluble sulfate concentrations of the surface soils were determined to approximately 555 parts per million (ppm). Soluble sulfate concentration will likely change as result of the recommended site grading. Soluble sulfate content should be determined after t grading and appropriate concrete mix designs should be selected in accordance with UBC Table 19-A-3. Sladden Engineering February 17, 2004 -5- Project No. 544-4010 04-02-139 Tentative Pavement Design: All paving should be underlain by a minimum ,compacted fill thickness of 12 inches (excluding aggregate base). This may be performed as described in the Site Grading Section of this report. R -Value testing performed during our previous investigation resulted in an R -Value of 62. On this basis, a pavement section of 3.0 inches of asphalt on 4.0 inches of base material should be applicable for the design of the majority of the onsite pavement. The appropriate pavement sections for off site improvements will be dependent upon traffic ' indices determined by the City of La Quinta, California. Aggregate base should conform to the requirements for Class 2 Aggregate base in Section 26 of CalTrans Standard Specifications, January 1992. *Asphaltic concrete should conform to Section 39 of the CalTrans Standard Specifications. The recommended sections should be provided with a uniformly compacted subgrade and precise control of ' thickness and elevations during placement. Pavement and slab designs are tentative and should be confirmed at the completion of site grading when the subgrade soils are in-place. This will include sampling and testing of the actual =' subgrade soils and an analysis based upon the specific traffic information Shrinkage and Subsidence: Volumetric shrinkage of the material that is excavated and replaced as controlled compacted fill should be anticipated. We estimate that this shrinkage could vary ' from 15 to 20 percent. Subsidence of the surfaces that are scarified and compacted should be between 0.1 and 0.2 tenths of a foot. This will vary depending upon the type of equipment used, the moisture content of the soil at the time of grading and the actual degree. of compaction attained. These values for shrinkage and subsidence are exclusive of losses that will occur due to the stripping of the organic material from the site, the removal of deleterious materials and the l' removal of debris, and other subsurface obstructions. General Site Grading: All grading should be performed in accordance with the grading ordinance of the City of La Quints; Califgrnia. The following recommendations have been t developed on the basis of our field investigation and laboratory testing: 1. Clearing and Grubbing: Proper clearing of any existing vegetation and debris will be very important. All surfaces to receive compacted fill should be cleared of roots, vegetation, debris, and other unsuitable materials which should be removed from the site. Soils that are disturbed due to the removal of the surface vegetation, previous improvements or artificial fill material should be replaced as controlled compacted fill under the direction of the Soils Engineer. Sladden Engineering February 17, 2004 -6- Project No. 544-4010 ` 04-02-139 ' 2. Preparation of Building Areas: Within the building areas, .removal and recompaction of the primary foundation bearing soils is recommended. As a.minimutn removals within the building areas should extend to a depth of at least 3 feet below ' existing grade or 3 feet below the bottom of the footings, whichever is deeper.' The exposed surface should be scarified, moisture conditioned and compacted so that a Minilllunl of 90% relative compaction is attained. Once deleterious materials are removed, the native soils and artificial fill materials may be placed as controlled - compacted fill. Overexcavation should be observed by a representative of Sladden Engineering and compaction should be verified by testing. Overexcavation should extend at least 5 feet laterally beyond the footings. 3. Preparation of Surfaces to Receive Compacted Fill: Other areas to receive compacted fill should be brought to near optimum moisture content and compacted to a ' minimum of 90% relative compaction. 4. Placement of Compacted Fill: Fill materials consisting of on-site soils or approved imported granular soils, .should be spread in thin lifts, and compacted at near optimum moisture content to a minimum of 90% relative compaction. Imported material shalt have an Expansion Index not exceeding 20. The contractor shall notify the Soils Engineer at least 48 hours in advance of importing soils in order to provide sufficient time for the evaluation of proposed import materials. The contractor shall be responsible for delivering material to the site that complies with the project specifications. Approval by the Soils Engineer will be based upon material delivered to the site and not the preliminary evaluation of import sources. Our observations of the material encountered during our investigation indicate that ' compaction will be most readily obtained by means of heavy rubber -wheeled equipment and/or vibratory compactors. At the time of our investigation, the subsoils were found to be quite dry. A more uniform moisture content should be attained during recompaction ' and fill placement. 5. Preparation of Slab and Pavement Areas: All surfaces to receive asphalt concrete ' pavement or concrete slabs -on -grade should be underlain by a minimum compacted fill thickness of 12 inches. This may be accomplished by a combination of scarification and recompaction of the surface soils and placement of the fill material as controlled compacted fill. Compaction of the slab and pavement areas should be to a minimum of 90 percent relative compaction. 6. Testing and Inspection: During grading tests and observations should be performed by the Soils Engineer or his representative in order to verify that the gradng is being performed in accordance with the project specifications. Feld density rtes ing hall be performed in accordance with acceptable ASTM test methods. The minimum acceptable degree of compaction should be 90 percent of the maximum dry density as obtained by the ASTM D1557-91 test method. Where testing indicates insufficient density, additional compactive effort shall be applied until retesting indicates satisfactory compaction.

GENERAL the findings and recommendations presented in this report are based upon an interpolation of the soil conditions between the exploratory boring locations and extrapolation of these conditions throughout the proposed building area. Should conditions encountered during grading appear different than those indicated in this report, this office should be notified. this report is considered to be applicable for use by Thomas Enterprises, Inc. and its consultants for the specific site and project described herein. The use of this report by other parties or for other projects is' not authorized. The recommendations of this report are contingent upon monitoring of the grading operations by a representative of Sladden Engineering. All recommendations are considered to be tentative pending our review of the grading operations and additional testing, if indicated. If others are employed to perform any soil testing, this office should be notified prior to such testing in order to coordinate any required site visits by our representative and to assure indemnification of Sladden Engineering. Our investigation was conducted prior to the completion of plans for the project. We recommend that a pre job conference be held on the site prior to the initiation of site grading. The purpose of this meeting will be to assure a complete understanding of the recommendations presented in this report as they apply to the actual grading performed. ; Sladden Engineering 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 �j 1 1 1 1. 1 1 North Approximate Boring Locations. 1997 UNIFORM BUILDING CODE SEISMIC DESIGN INFORMATION The International Conference of Building M ' b Officials 1997 Uniform Building Code contains substantial revisions and additions to the earthquake engineering section in Chapter 16.
