INTRODUCTION <br />Priority Engineering has conducted a site inspection, made a physical test of on-si <br />the following report of Geotechnical Investigation for the residential property locz <br />Santa Ana CA 92703. The investigation was made to provide site evaluation and c <br />proposed accessory dwelling unit (ADU) to be constructed on the site. <br />SITE DESCRIPTION <br />The site, Assessor Parcel 008-083-06. <br />Latitude 33.749485 <br />Longitude-117.881629 <br />CITY OF SANTA ANA <br />PlannipplpkB ail it g Agency <br />Tanta Ana CA 92703 <br />Approved <br />FOR PERMIT ISSUANCE <br />soils and prepared <br />edat111.2 W6`"St, <br />Date: <br />The site is a 6534 square ft rectangular shaped lot. North and south property line is 53 ft, east and west <br />property line is 125 ft. The existing residence is a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom, 448 sq ft structure, built in <br />1910. The property is a 1 story single family residence with a long driveway leading to a detached <br />garage. Rear yard has a perimeter wooden fence. <br />Surrounding houses are composed of single family, wood framed, residential structures on similar size <br />lots. <br />SCOPE OF WORK <br />Our scope of work consists of field and laboratory programs to evaluate the physical and engineering <br />properties of the onsite soils. <br />Description of the exploration and laboratory programs are presented below. <br />EXPLORATION AND FIELD INVESTIGATION PROGRAMS <br />On July 11, 2024, a field exploration was performed, which consisted of 2 borings, in the approximate <br />location of the proposed addition. <br />Hole #1 was drilled to a depth of 10 ft. Equipment used was a hand operated power auger with <br />extensions. Moisture tests taken at 20" was 11.3%, at 45" was 8.6%, at 72" was 13.8%. <br />Ring samples taken at 1 Oft and bulk sample taken at 5 ft. for laboratory testing. <br />The soil encountered was olive brown silty sand. <br />The description of the subsurface soil and the depth of boring # 1 are shown in Boring Log C 1. <br />Hole #2 was drilled to a depth of 5ft. Equipment used was a hand operated power auger with <br />extensions. Moisture tests taken at 25" was 10.7%, at 50" was 7.1 % and at 60" was 11.6%. <br />Ring samples taken at 5 ft and bulk sample taken at 3 ft. for laboratory testing. <br />The soil encountered was olive brown silty sand. <br />The description of the subsurface soil and the depth of boring #2 are shown in Boring Log C2. <br />
