Project Address: 1323 Ashford Lane, Newport Beach, CA Project: 22011-01
Subject: Foots Observation for Proposed New Residential Construction
Peter Anderson of SA GEOTECHNICAL, INC. (SA) was onsite at the request of the general contractor
(Willhoit Construction) and concrete contractor (RDC Concrete) to observe and document the footing
excavations for the proposed new residential construction at the subject site. The footing excavations
include pad and continuous footings for the proposed main structure, attached garage, playhouse and
cabana. The footings exposed engineered artificial fill placed during recent grading operations under the
observation and testing of SA Geo. The fill material consists of reddish -brown silty sands and was
generally moist and medium dense where encountered.
The subject footing excavations for the proposed main residential structure, attached garage, playhouse
and cabana at the subject site are considered geologically acceptable for placement of steel and concrete.
Any loose material and debris should be removed from the footing excavation prior to pouring concrete.
Our services do not include line and grade verification, which is the responsibility of others

Subject: Overexcavation Removal Bottom Observation for Proposed New Residential Construction
Peter Anderson of SA GEOTECBMCAL, INC. (SA) was onsite at the request of the general contractor
(Willhoit Construction) and grading contractor (Donny Goodwin Enterprises) to observe and document
the overexcavation (OX) removal bottom for the proposed new residential construction at the subject site.
The removal bottom covers the east property boundary and extends 45-feet to the west into the building
pad portion of the site. The removal bottom extends a minimum of 3-feet below design pad grades to an
approximate elevation of 97.75' and extends a minimum of 3-feet beyond the proposed structural
footprint for the proposed new residential construction. The removal bottom exposed Terrace Deposits
consisting of reddish brown silty sand. The terrace material was generally slightly moist to moist and
probed medium dense.
The subject OX removal bottom is considered geologically acceptable for placement of fill material
following scarifying and moisture conditioning in conformance with the approved project
recommendations.

Subject: Overexcavation Removal Bottom Observation for Proposed New Residential Construction
Peter Anderson of SA GEOTECHNICAL, INC. (SA) was onsite at the request of the general contractor
(Willhoit Construction) and grading contractor (Donny Goodwin Enterprises) to observe and document
the overexcavation (OX) removal bottom for the proposed new residential construction at the subject site.
The subject removal bottom covers the northwest potion of the property and extends from the previous
removal area along the northeast edge of the site to the west property boundary. The removal bottom
generally extends a minimum of 3-feet below design pad grades to an approximate elevation of 97.75'
and extends a minimum of 3-feet beyond the proposed structural footprint for the proposed new
residential construction. The removal bottom exposed Terrace Deposits consisting of reddish brown silty
sand. The terrace material was generally slightly moist to moist and probed medium dense. Very moist
material was locally encountered along the northwest edge of the removal area and pumping conditions
were observed. The grading contractor attempted to blend drier material and cement (approx. 20-bags)
with the wet subgrade materials in order to bridge the area. The subgrade continued to pump and it was
determined that additional removals were necessary to remove the wet material and reach a stable bottom.
Removals were locally deepened to extend to a depth of approximately 6-feet bgs (elevation 95'). The
removal area was left open to "dry back" and additional cement ordered so that the subgrade could be
cement treated prior to fill placement.
The subject OX removal bottom should be reviewed by the geotechnical consultant before and during
cement treatment in order to determine if it is considered geologically acceptable for placement of fill
material. If pumping conditions continue alternative methods of subgrade stabilization may be required.

extends a minimum of 3-feet below design pad grades to an approximate elevation of 97.75' and extends
a minimum of 3-feet beyond the proposed structural footprint for the proposed new residential
construction. Deeper removals up to a depth of approximately 6-feet bgs (elevation 95') were locally
required due to wet, pumping material encountered within the removal bottom. Where wet removal
bottoms were encountered, the subgrade materials were cement treated and processed in place prior to fill
placement. The removal bottoms exposed Terrace Deposits consisting of reddish brown silty sand.
The subject OX removal bottom is considered geologically acceptable for placement of fill material
following scarifying and moisture conditioning in conformance with the approved project
recommendations.

Subject: Footing Observation for Proposed Cabana Structure
Peter Anderson of SA GEOTECHNICAL, INC. (SA) was onsite at the request of the general contractor
(Willhoit Construction) and concrete contractor (RDC Concrete) to observe and document the footing
excavations for the proposed cabana structure at the subject site. The footing excavations include pad and
continuous footings for the cabana at the southwest comer of the site. The footings exposed engineered
artificial fill placed during recent grading operations under the observation and testing of SA Geo.
Terrace deposits were locally encountered where deeper excavations were required. The fill material
consists of reddish -brown silty sands and was generally moist and medium dense where encountered.
The subject footing excavations for the proposed cabana at the subject site are considered geologically
acceptable for placement of steel and concrete. Any loose material and debris should be removed from
the footing excavation prior to pouring concrete.
