Scope
This report presents the results of our Foundation Soils
Investigation and Engineering Geologic Investigation of the site of
the proposed construction to be located at No. 7 Williamsburg Lane,
Rolling Hills, California.
The physical location and dimensions of the site are shown on the
attached Plot Plan, Appendix IV.
Investigation was authorized to determine the existing soil
conditions at the site and to provide data and specific
recommendations relative to the foundation design for the proposed
structure(s).
Please refer to Appendix II for an explanation of the limitations
inherent in this field.
Proposed Construction
Proposed is an addition of a guest house to the existing single
family residence. In addition, a retaining wall will be
constructed.
Wall loads of 2,000 p.l.f. have been assumed and utilized in the
preparation of this report.
Should final design loads vary significantly from those noted
above, this office should be notified.

JOB NO: FG-2578-86
Site Condition
The site of the proposed construction has a gentle slope in the area
of the building. The Western section slopes down. It is bounded on
the North by a house and on the South by a residence; on the East by
Williamsburg Lane, and on the West by a drainage channel.
With reference to the site investigated, the West is at a much lower
elevation while the other 3 contiguous sides have matching contours.
Grass and trees form the ground cover.
An existing residence with detached stables are at the site as shown
on the plan, Appendix IV.
Soil Condition
The on site in situ soil is a strata of soft clayey sandy silt.
The top soil is supported by a layer of diatomaceous siltstone.
The bedrock is very hard to sample.
For details please refer to the Logs of the Trenches and the Plan.
No ground water was noted.
Localized man -placed fill was encountered in trench no. 2, only.
All footings must penetrate this fill. The fill must be removed if
the area is to be used for slab support.

JOB NO: FG-2578-86
Exploration
The subsurface was explored by trenching with a backhoe to a maximum
depth of 8 feet below the existing ground surface. The trenches
were placed in strategic locations where the major structures are to
be constructed in a manner to determine the subsurface conditions.
Approximate locations of the trench is shown on the attached Plot
Plan, Appendix IV.
The trenches were logged by our geologist. Samples of both
undisturbed and disturbed soils encountered were obtained for
laboratory testing and observation. Logs of the trenches are shown
on geology report. The soils are classified in accordance with the
Unified Soil Classification System described on an attached Plate.
This Plate also shows the type of sampler used in obtaining
undisturbed samples.
Laboratory Testing
The field moisture content and dry densities of the soils
encountered were determined by performing tests on the undisturbed
samples. The results of these tests are shown on the Logs of
trenches. Density and field moisture information is useful as
indicators of the nature and quality of the material.
Direct shear tests were performed on selected, undisturbed samples
of the soils in order to determine the strengths and supporting
capacities of the soils. The method of performing these tests is to
saturate the sample, to extrude the sample into the test apparatus,
to apply the normal load, and then to allow sufficient time to
elapse to dissipate any excess hydrostatic pressure. The sample is
then subjected to a strain -controlled single plane shear test. The
method of applying the normal and shearing load is such as to allow
the sample to change in volume without producing an associated
change in the normal stress. The shearing stress is measured at a
constant rate of strain of approximately 0.05 inches per minute.
Selected samples of soil were tested at confining pressures similar
to those of the materials in -situ. Additional specimens from the
same samples were also tested at increased normal pressures in order
to determine the increase in shear strengths associated with
increased intergranular pressure. The test results are plotted
graphically on Plate "A". The resulting values are on the following
page.

Consolidation tests were performed on saturated specimens of the
typical foundations soils. Consolidometers are designed to receive
the undisturbed soil samples and brass rings in the field condition.
Porous stones placed at the top and bottom of each specimen permit
free flow of water into or from the specimen during the test.
Successive load increments were applied to the top of the specimen
and progressive and final settlements under each increment were
recorded to an accuracy of 0.0001 inch. The final settlements so
obtained are plotted to determine curves shown on Plates "B" and
"C"
Conclusions
Suitability of the Project
The site is suitable for its intended use, namely a guest house
addition and a retaining wall. In designing the proposed structures,
the criteria given in the design section should be adhered to.
A) The construction of this project will not affect the stability
of the surrounding structures, such as walls, electric poles,
etc. .
B) For this particular lot, this Foundation Soils Investigation
and Engineering Geologic Investigation will be adequate. A
Seismic statement is not deemed necessary. Please use U.B.C.
Table 23.1 latest edition.
C) This report is subject to approval by the governing agencies.
Strength Characteristics
The load bearing soils possess strength parameters adequate to
support the proposed construction.
Expansion Potential
The on site surficial soil is classified as moderately expansive
with an expansion index of 81. This is based on the test results
conducted in accordance with U.B.C. 29-2.

Recommendations
Foundation Design
Continuous footings may be utilized for the design of the foundation
to support the proposed structure.
Bearing Values
A bearing value of 1,500 p.s.f. may be used. The footings should be
at least 15 inches wide and a minimum of 18 and 24 inches deep for
the interior and exterior footings. The footings must rest 12
inches into the firm bedrock.
All footings excavation must be observed by the geologist. If
necessary, the footings should be deepened to rest in bedrock.
Footing Dimensions and Setbacks
The above footing dimensions are in accordance with section 2907 (i)
of the Los Angeles County Building Code and Table 29-A of the
Uniform Building Code, 1982 edition.
Footings shall be set back in accordance with the County of Los
Angeles Building Code Section 2907.1 (c).
Footings Setback From Descending Slope Surface
Footings on or adjacent to slope surface shall be founded in firm
material with an embedment and setback from the slope surface
sufficient to provide vertical and lateral support for the footing
without detrimental settlement. Except as provided for in this
section, the following setback is deemed adequate to meet the
criteria. Footings shall be placed into firm material and located a
distance of 1/3 the vertical height of the slope with a minimum of 5
feet and a maximum of 40 feet measured horizontally from the slope
surface to the lower edge of the footing. Where the slope is
steeper than one vertical to one horizontal, the required setback
shall be measured from an imaginary plane 45 degrees to the
horizontal is projected upward from the toe of the slope.
Settlement - Total and Differential
Based on the design criteria, settlement should be minimal when
footings are founded on bedrock. Overall differential settlement is
expected to be negligible. Approximately 1/2 of the settlement will
occur during the construction period. Once constructed, the
differential settlement should be insignificant.
5
GEO-ETKA, INC.
JOB NO: FG-2578-86
Earth Pressures
Lateral loads will be resisted by the friction between the floor
slab and subgrade as well as the passive resistance of the soils
against footings. A coefficient of friction of 0.35 may be used
between slabs, footings and subgrade.
The passive resistance of the soil may be taken to be 220 p.c.f. of
E.F.D. .
The active lateral soil pressure may taken as 45 p.c.f. of E.F.D.
Active pressure must be adjusted for a sloping surcharge as per the
applicable building code values.
Expansive Soil Criteria
Continuous footings should be reinforced with at least 1, Number 4
bar at the top and 1 at the bottom.
Due to the expansive nature of the foundation soils, it is
recommended that the slabs on grade be reinforced with Number 3
bars at 18 inches on center. This should be underlain by a moisture
barrier.
The moisture barrier should consist of 6 inches of clean, uniform
sized, crushed rock or clean coarse sand.
Also, a 6 mil poly vinyl chloride sheet or comparable impervious
material on top of it may be utilized as additional protection.- All
joints shall be made so as to preserve the impervious character.
The membrane should be protected from puncture by a cushion of at
least 3 inches of sand, above and below the plastic sheet.
The above criteria are based on the assumption that the moisture
barrier is installed and the concrete placed before the soil has
begun to show significant surface cracks. Should such cracks occur,
the soil should be thoroughly wetted to a depth of 18 inches so that
all cracks have disappeared. This should occur 24 to 48 hours prior
to placement of the concrete itself. This is in accordance with the
County of Los Angeles Building Code Section Code Section 2907 (1).
6
GEO-ETKA, INC.
JOB NO: FG-2578-86
General Drainage Recommendations
In view of the expansive nature of the on site soil, as in any good
design, positive drainage should be designed, i.e. all external
water such as rain, irrigation, and water generated from washing the
walkways should be drained away from the structure.
A berm should be placed on top of the slope to control water from
going down the slopes.
Roof gutters should be provided. The water collected and drained to
the street.
Water proofing the exterior footing area in contact with planters
should also be considered for added protection.
Plants and trees planted should be chosen selectively, such that
they consume least amount of water. A horticulturist may be
consulted for specific recommendations regarding plant type, etc. .
As an alternate to the above, water drainage can be to the streets
by means of energy dissipation devices. Drainage system utilized
should be detailed on the plans.
Section 309 Statement
Based on our evaluation, the findings presented and the
recommendation made of the subject lot with respect to Section 309
of the County of Los Angeles, the site will be geologically stable.
No geologic hazards are present nor will the grading affect the site
or the stability of the proposed house and the off site property.
Demolition
Special note should be taken during the any demolition of the
existing buildings so as to locate all underground items, e.g. pipe,
conduit, storage tanks, septic tanks, cesspools or leaching lines,
water wells, irrigation pipe, etc. .
Any septic tank found should be removed from the site.
Any seepage pit or cesspool found shall be pumped dry and filled
with clean sand. The top and sides should be broken and removed if
they are within 5 feet of finished grade. The water well shall be
cut off and capped, 5 feet below finished grade.
7
GEO-ETKA, INC.
JOB NO: FG-2578-86
Demolition (cont'd)
Any metal pipe with a diameter greater than 1 inch shall be
excavated and cleared from the site. Any vitrified clay leaching
lines may be broken in place.
Any tree that has to be removed due to the construction, should be
completely removed and the cavity backfilled as described in grading
section.
Any root with a diameter greater than 1 inch shall be excavated and
cleared from the site or mulched for future landscaping use.
All cavities should be cut in a "V" shape so that compaction
equipment will not bridge during grading which should be conducted
in the manner noted below.
It is recommended that the demolition be observed so as to prevent
debris from remaining on or being buried on site. The demolition of
the below grade items such as pipes and tree root systems must be
checked by the soil engineer or his representative.
Grading
Prior to the controlled grading operations, the construction area
should be stripped of all vegetation that is present and the debris
removed from the site.
If area of the existing fill is to be utilized for structural
support, all fill must be removed to firm soil.
A moderate amount of grading is anticipated in the development of
this site. It is recommended that all surface which is loose that
will support floor slabs or asphalt concrete paving, and all surface
which will receive fill or backfill, be scarified to a depth of 8
inches, watered or dried to near Optimum Moisture Content and
recompacted to a minimum of 90%.
Where fill or backfill is required, it should be placed in a maximum
of 6 inch loose layers and each layer compacted at near Optimum
Moisture Content to at least 90% compaction. Clean on site soils may
be utilized as fill material.
Imported fill soil should be predominantly granular, non -expansive
and capable of developing the bearing strength required for the
project.
8
GEO-ETKA, INC.
JOB NO: FG-2578-86
Grading (cont'd)
Note that the size of fill material shall not be greater than 2 inch
in diameter or length.
In the parking area, the base soil should be placed and compacted to
at least 95% of the compaction standard.
The asphalt should be compacted to at least 96% of its maximum
density.
The asphalt used should be AR 4000 or AR 8000 or equivalent.
The baserock should be Class II California Specifications or
equivalent.
Compaction Standard: A.S.T.M. D-1557-82
If required by the approving agency, Expansion Index Test (U.B.C.
29-2) will be run at the time of rough grading.
A grading and a foundation plan should be submitted to this office
prior to starting the grading. A pre -grade meeting is recommended.
In order for us to provide better service, a minimum of 48 hours
notice should be provided to schedule or cancel any geotechnical
work.
GEO-ETKA, INC. should be retained to observe all grading operation
and the required testing of the utility trench backfill as well as
to observe the footing excavations.
If conditions are encountered during the design, approval by the
governing agencies, and/or the construction period that appear to be
contrary to the findings of this report, this office must be
notified so that proper modifications may be made.

This report presents the Geology and Engineering Geology of multi -
sided large lot measuring, in maximum dimension ± 300 feet East-
West by ± 200 feet North -South and located at No. 7, Williamsburg
Lane, Rolling Hills, California.
The purpose of the investigation was to determine the foundation
conditions and engineering geology for the proposed additions of
a guest house, to be located at the Southeast end of the existing
house, and a curved retaining wall to be located at the top of a
1:1 (H:V) slope on the Western portion of the property.
Construction plans were not available at the time of writing this
report, but it is believed the guest house will be of similar
single story frame construction, as the existing residence. The
area where the proposed guest house is to be located is essentially
flat.
Most of the ground above the proposed retaining wall addition
slopes gently down towards the West.
At the bottom of the above 50'± foot high 1:1 (H:V) slope there is a
Southerly flowing drainage, which was dry at the time of this
investigation.
The proposed guest house area is planted with lawn grass and most of
the retaining wall area has a thin to heavy growth of brush and
small to large trees.
The site was investigated by means of three backhoe dug, soil sampled,
geologically mapped test pits; one in the guest house area and two
in the vicinity of the proposed retaining wall.

Earth Materials
Underlying the entire site and found in every test pit at a depth
of four and one half feet, is a white to tan, moist to damp, stiff to
very hard, mostly massive, very locally bedded, weathered diatomaceous
siltstone without joint fractures and few other fractures.
Excepting very locally, on the slope, all of the bedrock, on the
site is overlain by stiff clayey sandy silt and compact sandy silt
colluvium soil cover. All of the colluvium, below ± 6'°inches, is
quite competent.
Only found very locally, at test pit two, is sandy silt with debris,
which is expected to be construction derived from the very close
proximity of the large stables. There is no evidence that this
artificial man -placed fill extends any distance beyond test pit two.
For a complete description of the earth materials, please refer to
the three test pit logs and please refer to site plan geologic map
for the distribution of the earth material.
Comments and Recommendations
In the guest house area,it is judged, both the colluvium and bedrock
would provide good foundations. On, and/or directly above a steep slope,
bedrock is the preferred foundation -material.
Please refer to the GEO-ETKA Soils Engineering Report for all
foundation recommendations.
The Geologist should inspect all bedrock foundation excavations.
Following construction all unprotected areas should be planted with
suitable landscape planting.

Comments and Recommendations (cont'd)
Only very locally were bedding planes found and these were
oriented favorable for good bedrock slope stability.
Section 309 Statement
Based on our evaluation of the subject lots with respect to Section
309, of the Los Angeles County Building Code, the site will be
