625 Cypress Avenue <br />Geotechnical Investigation <br /> <br />Project No. W1895-88-01 - 30 - April 23, 2024 <br />7.11.8 It is recommended that vertical point-loads, from construction equipment outriggers or <br />adjacent building columns use horizontal pressures generated from NAV-FAC DM 7.2. <br />The governing equations are: <br /> 𝐹𝐹𝐹𝐹𝐹𝐹 𝑥𝑥𝐻𝐻�≤0.4 𝜎𝜎𝐻𝐻(𝑧𝑧)=0.28 × �𝑧𝑧𝐻𝐻�2 <br />�0.16 +�𝑧𝑧𝐻𝐻�2 �3 × 𝑄𝑄𝑃𝑃𝐻𝐻2 <br />and 𝐹𝐹𝐹𝐹𝐹𝐹 𝑥𝑥𝐻𝐻�>0.4 <br />𝜎𝜎𝐻𝐻(𝑧𝑧)=1.77 × �𝑥𝑥𝐻𝐻�2 × �𝑧𝑧𝐻𝐻�2 <br />��𝑥𝑥𝐻𝐻�2 +�𝑧𝑧𝐻𝐻�2 �3 × 𝑄𝑄𝑃𝑃𝐻𝐻2 <br />then 𝜎𝜎′𝐻𝐻 (𝑧𝑧)= 𝜎𝜎𝐻𝐻(𝑧𝑧)𝑐𝑐𝐹𝐹𝑐𝑐2 (1.1𝜃𝜃) <br /> <br />where x is the distance from the face of the excavation/wall to the vertical point-load, H is <br />distance from the outrigger/bottom of column footing to the bottom of excavation, z is the <br />depth at which the horizontal pressure is desired, Qp is the vertical point-load, σH(z) is the <br />horizontal pressure at depth z, ϴ is the angle between a line perpendicular to the <br />excavation/wall and a line from the point-load to location on the excavation/wall where the <br />surcharge is being evaluated, and σH(z) is the horizontal pressure at depth z. <br />7.12 Stormwater Infiltration <br />7.12.1 During the site exploration on March 4, 2024, borings B2 and B3 were utilized to perform <br />percolation testing. The borings were excavated to approximate depths of 5 and 25 feet <br />below ground surface. Slotted casing was placed in the borings, and the borings were then <br />filled with water to pre-saturate the soils. On March 5, 2024, the casings were refilled with <br />water and percolation test readings were performed after repeated flooding of the cased <br />excavation. <br />7.12.2 Based on the test results, the average infiltration rate (adjusted percolation rate) is provided <br />in the following table. The field-measured percolation rate has been adjusted to infiltration <br />rates in accordance with the County of Orange Technical Guidance Document for the <br />Preparation of Conceptual/Preliminary and/or Project Water Quality Management Plans
