Dear Mr. Thompson:
As requested by Mr. David Jacobson of Nadel Architects, Inc., this letter presents our conclusions
regarding the liquefaction potentail at the site of the proposed Support Services building. We
performed a geotechnical investigation for the project and submitted the results in a report dated
June 5, 1996.
The professional opinions presented in this letter have been developed using that degree of care and
skill ordinarily exercised, under similar circumstances, by reputable geotechnical consultants prac-
ticing in this or similar localities. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made as to the
professional advice included in this letter.
Liquefaction Zones
The State issued a Seismic Hazard Zones Map for the Newport Beach Quadrangle in April 1997.
This map identifies areas as potentially liquefiable within the Newport Beach Quadrangle. The
potential liquefaction zones shown on the map do not include the location of the proposed Support
Services building. However, there are areas identified as potentially liquefiable directly south of the
proposed development starting at West Coast Highway, and directly east of the proposed
development at the off -ramp from the southbound Newport Boulevard to the west bound Coast
Highway.
Subsurface Conditions
We drilled a boring (Boring 4) during our investigation for the proposed development near the
eastern cdg" of the property. We encountered siltstone in the boring directly below the surface
paving. We also drilled five borings (Borings 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11) near the southem edge of the
proposed development, during the same investigation. Siltstone was encountered from 6-inches to 2-

feet below the ground surface. Layers of sandstone were encountered in four borings (Borings 5, 6,
7. and 11) during the same investigation on the westem portion of the property. Testing showed
these sandstone layers to be dense.
Groundwater seepage was encountered in most of the exploratory borings drilled at the site:
however. the amount of groundwater seepage encountered was relatively small.
Conclusions
The sandstone and siltstone are not considered to be liquefiable. Based on the subsurface conditions
encountered in our borings and on the information presented in the Seismic Hazards Zones Map, it is
our opinion that the potential for liquefaction occumng at the site is low.
Please call if you have any questions or require additional information.

Law/Crandall Project 70131-5-0689.0004
Dear Mr. Thompson:
As requested by Mr. Al Burghard of Wood, Burghard, Swain Architects, this letter presents the
results of' our review of the project civil plans for the proposed pavement rehabilitation project.
We have been provided with a copy of the project civil plans (Sheets C-l.1 through C-I.3) dated
November 27. 1996, prepared by Wagner Pacific, Inc. We have performed numerous geotechnical
investigations at the hospital campus and are familiar with' the subsurface conditions Included in
our prior studies was a pavement condition survey which included the area of the planned
rehabilitation. The results of the pavement condition survey were presented in a report dated
December 6, 1994 (L/C 2406.40435.0001).
Our professional services have been performed using that degree of care and skill ordinarily
exercised, under sitnilar circumstances, by reputable geotechnical consultants practicing in this or
similar localities. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made as to the professional advice
included in this letter.
The project plans indicate that portions of the existing pavement around the hospital conference
center extending south to the parking structure will be either slurry sealed, overlaid, or removed
and replaced with new pavement. The narking area behind the conference center will be widened
about 6 feet, which will require about 2 feet of fill to be placed.
Based on our review, the planned earthwork will not adverwly affect the site, and the subject civil
plans are in accordance with the recommendations contained in our December 6. 1994 report with
the following exceptions:
For the areas of failed pavement on the main hospital drive that will be replaced, we
recommend the replacement section consist of 3 inches of asphalt concrete (A.C.) over
10 inches of aggregate base course (A.B.) or an 8-inch thick full depth asphalt section
in lieu of the 3 inches of asphalt concrete over 6 inches of aggregate base course
shown on the plans. The section currently shown in the plans (3 inches A.C. over 6

inches A.B.) is adequate for the pavement planned behind the conference center where
the anticipated traffic usage (Traffic Index = 41/2) will be significantly less than the
traffic on the main hospital drive (Tr•^-ffic Index =•
The 1'/:-inch asphalt concrete overlay with Petromat may be used in lieu of the 2-inch
thick overlay recommended in our report. It should oe noted that the Petromat fabric
should not be used on future rehabilitation projects where the grade of the pavement is
greater than 6 percent, which does not occur within the limits of the current project.
The exposed subgrade and the placement of fill and pavement should be observed and tested by
personnel from our firm.
We trust this letter satisfies your current needs. Please

Pavement Condition Report & Repair Recommendations 2406.40435.0001
BACKGROUND
VISUAL SURVEY
The asphalt concrete (AC) pavement associated with the Hoag Hospital campus is experiencing
several forms of pavement distress. These are:
• Structural failure
• Shoving
• Raveling
Portions of the pavement have developed an "alligator" type crack pattern which is the result of
a support failure within the pavement structural section. This condition allows moisture to enter
the underlying base and subgrade soils, causing additional damage to the pavements.
Damage from shoving has occurred in the entrance to the Hoag Cancer Center east parking lot.
Shoving usually occurs due to shear forces from the braking action of vehicles. The Hoag Cancer
Center east parking lot entrance is a curvrtd downgrade with little or no supertlevation. An
entrance gate is located at tho bottom of the slope forcing drivers of vehicles to apply their brakes.
Vehicles with excessive speeds; which lead to excessive braking forces, were observed during our
field investigation.
Damage from raveling was observed in several locations around the campus. Raveling is the loss
of either or both coarse or fine aggregates from a pavement surface. Raveling is generally caused
by water sensitive aggregates, low compaction, and low binder content. The raveling observed
generally appeared to be in drainage paths and areas adjacent to irrigated landscape.

Six cores were cut from the pavement for thickness measurements and sampling of underlying
materials. The core locations are described as follows:
Core S Location
1 Hoag Hospital Cancer Center east parking lot entrance
2 Entry from Pacific Coast Highway on the lower campus
3 Emergency Care Unit parking lot
4 Road in front of Child Care Center parking lot
5 Road in front of Grace Hoag Conference Center
6 Hospital building entrance, east of parking structure
The asphalt concrete contains 1/2 inch maximum size aggregate. Information on the aggregate
source and type, and the grade of asphalt Cement was unavailable at the time of our survey. The
age of the pavement Is unknown.
The aggregate material directly under the asphalt concrete is a processed miscellaneous base (PMB)
with 1-inch maximum size aggregate. This material was dense and damp at the time of sampling.
Location #2 had 3.5" of cement treated base between the AC and PhMB. The subgrade soils are
classified as follows:
"• Location 1 and 4: Clayey sand with little gravel
• Location 2: Silty sand with little gravel
• Locations 3, 5, and 6: Clayey sand
The soils were dense and damp at the time of sampling. Sample #6 contained excess moisture
believed to be from adjacent landscape irrigation.

To assist in determining an economical recommendation for repair, 'Rs -value tests were conducted
on selected samples of the subgradc soil. These test results were analyzed to determine if the in -
situ structural section was adequate for the present traffic use.
The following is a comparison between the measured thickness of the parking lot structural section
and required thickness. The required thicknesses were developed using a traffic index (TI) of 5.5,
a subgrade R-value of 50 for location 1 and an R-value of 21 for locations 2 through 6, and
Calkans design manual for flexible pavements. The TI of 5.5 was determined by assuming loading
from 50% of the 2, 3, and 4 axle trucks from the west service road and no 5 axle trucks.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Hoag Cancer Center East Parking Lot Entrance
December 6, 1994
2406.404J5.0001
To prevent future shoving of the AC pavement on the sloping entiance street into the parking lot,
we recommend replacing the asphalt concrete with a portland cement concrete (pcc) pavement. This
will eliminate any short and long term problems associated with AC pavement in this application.
A portland cement concrete pavement section was designed using the Portland Cement
Association's Thickness Design for Concrete Highway and Street Pavements design manual and
computer program. We recommend a 7' thick unreinforced PCC pavement on 3" of processed
miscellaneous base (PMB). The PMB should be compacted to at least 95% of the maximum
laboratory density as determined by ASTM D1557. This design is based on a subgrade R-value
of 50 and medium traffic loading. The concrete should conform to Caltrans Standard
Specifications section 90 except as modified below.
Mix Design
The concrete mix design should be in accordance to ACI-301 with the following parameters.
• Design :strength- 600 psi flexural strength
• Maximum slump 4"
• Minimum portland cement content- 6 sacks/cubic yard
• Maximum w/c ratio- 0.55 lbs/Ib
• A water reducing admixture is required
• Approximate aggregate gradation proportions
Washed Concrete Sand- 42%
Coarse Aggregate 1"- 46%
Coarse Aggregate 3/8'- 12%

Curing
December 6, 1994
2406.40435.00OI
Proper curing is essential for a quality pavement. A Caltrans approved curing compound
should be applied after finishing operations are complete and immediately before the moisture
sheen disappears from the surface but shall not be applied over free standing water. All
traffic should be kept off the concrete for a minimum of 7 days after the concrete has been
placed. Heavy trucks should be kept off the concrete for a minimum of 28 days after the
concrete has been placed. It is important to keep vehicles off the :lab for the above
mentioned time and if the parking lot cannot be closed this will require staged construction.
Control and Construction Joints
Control joints should be soft cut as soon as possible after the concrete has set. Conventionally
wet saw the concrete to a depth of 1 1/2 inches and clean prior to the application of joint
filler. Joints should be cut so the pavement is divided into sections no greater than 15' on a
side. Saw cut joints shall be filled with a Caltrans approved joint filler. Install joint filler to
the full depth of the joint, flush with the top of the pavement. For staged construction, to
allow access to the parking lot, a construction joint will be required in the center of the
roadway. On the construction joint we recommend 3/4" diameter, 24" long, smooth dowel
bars @ 18" on center. One end should be ground smooth and greased to allow movement.
The dowels should be placed mid depth in the slab.
Where the PCC abuts existing AC, the AC should be saw cut and the underlying base and
subgrade should be removed and left with.a vertical face continuing down from the saw cut
in the AC. The PCC should be placed directly against the existing AC structural section. LI
areas where water will sheet drain from the AC onto the PCC, the PCC should be slightly
lower than the AC to prevent collection and infiltration of water at the John. At locations
where the PCC will sheet drain to the AC, the PCC should be slightly higher.

It is our understanding that the existing parking lot is to be removed and replaced with a
reconfigured parking lot tying into the west service road. Core location k3 was taken in the ECU
parking lot. The soil conditions encountered are similar to the west service road and the same
structural section may be used for both the west service road and the ECU parking tot. The
recommended section is as follows:

This section has been previously submitted and is based on an R-value of 19 and a 1I of 7. As
discussed with Mr, Gunther Kilfoil, a TI of 7 will be used for the west service road and the ECU
parking lot.
Entrance from Pacific Coast Highway
A small section of pavement (approximately 3 square feet) bas been uplifted and needs to be
replaced. The cause cf the uplift was not determined but may be due to tree roots. The area cf
distress is small and confined. At this area we recommend removing the existing pavement section
and replacing it with a 10-inch thick full depth asphalt section.

South Road Parallel to Newport Blvd. Tying into Hospital Road and Pacific Coast Highway
To evaluate this road, three cores were taken. Based on the results from testing and analysis at
these locations, the current pavement structural section is inadequate to support a TI of 5.5 at two
of the three locations. Structural failures were observed at several locations along the road. At
core location 6 a stress absorbing fabric was found in the core. Core location 6 was on the
entrance to the hospital building in a slightly sloped area. Due to the high traffic volume during
our coring we could not obtain a core in the traffic lanes to determine if a stress absorbing fabric
had been installed. If a stress absorbing fabric has been installed in the sloping traffic lanes this
could be a sours; of future shoving problems. Most stress absorbing fabric manufacturers
recommend that their products not be installed in sloping pavement. 'We recommend that two
additional cores be cut on the sloping area during low traffic volume periods to determine if a
stress absorbing fabric has been installed.
If a stress absorbing fabric is found in the sloping areas we recommend that the pavement be milled
to a minimum of 1/4" below the stress absorbing fabric. When the pavement has been milled,
'existing structural failures need to be repaired. An overlay 2" thicker than the depth of milled
pavement should be placed. If a stress absorbing fabric is not found, a 2" overlay should be placed
on the existing pavement when the structural failures have been repaired. The 7." overlay will
increase the structural section and mitigate the existing raveling problem.
To repair the existing pavement structural failures we recommend removing the existing distressed
areas and replacing the failed section with an 8" full depth asphalt section.
The section of the road around the parking structure to the ECU parking lot does not have a PCC
gutter. Some of the benefits of a PCC curb and guner are that PCC is not susceptible to raveling
and there is not a joint for water infiltration where the gutter abuts the curb. It is our
understanding that additional pedestrian walkways may be installed on the campus. If walkways
are installed by this roadway, it would be an excellent time to install a monolithic PCC curb and
gutter. When the overlay is installed it should be graded to drain into the PC gutters.

Cora wore not taken from any of the peakiog lots that are to romain in place. The parking lots
were observed to have similar distress types as the campus road and the samo recommendations
should bo followed.
