I have completed my review of the geologic report submitted by the applicant for the proposed Levitz Furniture Building at the rear of the Park and Shop Center, near the intersection of Market and Sutter Streets. The proposed building site is partially within the Special Study Zone delineated by the State Geologist.
The geologic report was prepared by Harding-Lawson Associates and titled "Geologic and Soil Investigation, Planned Warehouse and Showroom Building, Concord Park and Shop Center, Concord, California" (report dated August 25, 1977 with supplement dated February 8, 1978). The field investigation was conducted under the direct field supervision of a registered geologist and the resulting report generally adheres to the guidelines for reports issued by the California Division of Mines and Geology (CDMG Note 49). The primary conc·lusion of the report is that the proposed building site is free of evidence of active faulting.
Findings
1. In my opinion the geologic report and supplement satisfy the requirements of the Alquist-Priolo·Aet:··
2. Trench "A" is located in the area identified as the proposed building site (see Plate 1 in the report of February 8th). On page 10 of the report of August 25th, Harding-La1~son Associates makes specific recommendations for any footings that are located on or immediately adj.acent to the back filled exploratory trench.

3. The Seismic Hazards Study of the Concord Redevelopment Area (Earth Sciences Associates, December, 1977) suggests that the building site is approximately 1 ,000 feet southwest of the main trace of the Concord Fault, and approximately 500 feet southwest of the westernmost aerial photo l ineation.
If you have any questions on the geologic report or on my letter-review, please call me (372-2024). I will submitt a copy of the geologic report and this letter-review to Mr. Earl W. Hart of the California Division of Mines and Geology.

INTRODUCTION
I This report presents the results of our soil and geologic
I investigation for a planned warehouse and showroom, Park and s~op
Center in Concord, California. The site is a nearly level paved
I parking lot located along Market Street about 1/3 mile north of
I Willow Pass Road. The east corner of the building area is within
a California Special Studies Zone established by the Alquist-
1 Priolo Geologic Hazards Zone Act of 1972. Our investigation was
performed for Parker Management Corporation between July 18 and
I August 25, 1977. A progress report was submitted on August 16,
I 1977.
The planned building will be a 40- to 45-foot-high, one-story
I concrete and steel structure with a concrete slab-on-grade floor.
Most of the 100,000-square-foot building will be a warehouse, but
I a showroom and o=f ices will be included. The walls will be tilt-up
I concrete and will be supported on columns or strip footings. If
columns are used to support the bearing walls, the loads, as
I supplied by the Structural Engineer, Mr. Paul Juilly of L. F.

FI~L9 EXPLORATION k~D h~BOPATORY TESTI~S
Plate 1 shows the site location and site plan with the loc~
tions of our subsurface field work. A test trench was excav3ted
by backhoe near the east corner of the planned building normal
to the strike of known faulting in the Concord area. The trench
was situated to explore that portion of the new building site that
lies within the State Special Studies Zone. The excavation was
mapped in detail by our geologist. The trench extended a dista~ce
of 160 feet south of the northeast property line and about 10 feet
deep. A test pit was excavated to a depth of 10 feet near the
south corner of the planned building to extend subsurface data
mapped in the trench. The test trench profile and test pit log
are presented on Plates 2 and 3.
We explored the subsurface conditions in other portions of
the building area by drilling six test borings to depths of 15 to
40 feet using flight and hollow auger equipment. Our engineer
logged the borings and obtained undisturbed samples of the soils
encountered for visual examination and laboratory testing. The
boring logs are presented on Plates 4 through 7. The soils are
classified in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification
System described on Plate 8.
Selected samples were tested in our laboratory to deter::iine
moisture content, dry density, shear strength, Atterberg Limits
and consolidation. Test results are presented on the boring logs
in the manner described in the Key to Test Data, Plate 8. Consolid3-
tion test results are presented on Plate 9.

Surface Conditions
The site is a lighted and paved 4-acre portion of a parkin7
area for an existing shopping center. Elevations range from 30
to 32 feet (Mean Sea Level Datum) with surface drainage to the
southwest corner.
Subsurface Conditions
Geology
The Regional Geology Map presented on Plate 10 shows the majcr
geologic formations and faults that occur in the San Francisco Bay
Region. Regional geologic structure strikes roughly northwest and
formations vary in age from Jurassic to Quaternary. The site
location, circled on the map, is underlain by Late Tertiary
Quaternary alluvial sediments. The alluvium has been deposited
in the Concord lowlands over Tertiary sedimentary rocks. The depth
of alluvium over bedrock is variable in the Concord area. Bed
rock was not penetrated in our borings which were drilled to a
maximum depth of 40 feet.
Soils
Most of the site has a sandy clay fill up to two feet thick
overlying the natural soils. The fill seems well compacted and
with a low potential for expansion. Below the fill, a highly
expansive and firm residual black clay was encountered to depths
of six or seven feet. Expansive soils tend to shrink and swell with

Below the u~~er natural clay soil, unconsolidated alluviu:n
was encountered consisting of firm clay and silt, and dense sand
and gravel. The soils occur as discontinuous layers or lenses as
i. ··: .. · shown on the mapped profile of the test trench, Plate 2.
•• At the time of exploration, the ground-water level in our
I borings was at depths of 12 to 14 feet.
Seismicity and Faulting
I A seismicity map of the San Francisco Bay Region is presented
on Plate 11, which shows the major active faults, instru:nentally
I located epicenters of earthquakes greater than magnitude 4 since
I about 1929, and only the largest known earthquakes before 1929.
The largest historic earthquake associated with the nearby Concord
I fault occurred in October 1955, with a magnitude of 5.4 (Richter
scale). The active Hayward and San Andreas fault zones strike
I northwest, 13 and 32 miles west of the site, respectively. Two
I major earthquakes on the Hayward fault, 1836 and 1868, produced
strong ground shaking and widespread damage in the Bay Region.
I Five smaller shocks since 1868, also on the Hayward fault, have
produced more localized and much less severe damage. A great
I earthquake occurred on the San Andreas fault in 1906. The shock
I had an estimated Richter magnitude of 8.25 and caused severe
ground shaking and damage throughout most of the Bay Region.
I Shaking intensity experienced in the Concord area has been esti-
mated at VII-IX (Modified Mercalli Scale). The 1906 magnitude

and intensity represe11t the probable future maxi~u~s for the
I development site.
I The map of sJrface faulting, Plate 12, shows the site loca-
tion in relation to known surface faulting in the Concord fault
I zone. California law requires that special studies be perforneJ
for new construction within specified distances of known active
I fault traces. The site lies on the western limit of the Special
I Studies Zone shown on Plates 1 and 12. In addition to sudden
displacements, slow and relatively continuous fault displacements
I without damaging earthquakes, called "tectonic creep" also occurs
along the Concord and other faults in the Bay Region. The closest
I surface evidence of faulting is over 600 feet east of the site.
I DISCUSSION AND CO::lCLUSIONS
I Based on the results of our investigation, we conclude that
the site is satisfactory for the planned development from a geo-
I technical standpoint. Seismic ground shaking is the only
I significant geologic hazard, and the building should be designed
in accordance with current standards for seismically active
I regions. The existing fill and natural soils will support the
planned building on shallow foundations. To minimize possible
I cracking of floor slabs-on-grade, the expansive natural soils
should be covered with at least 12 inches of select fill.* The
I I I I
* Select fill should conform to the following requirements: (1) free of organic matter; (2) 100 percent finer than 6 inches; (3) liquid limit less than 40; and (4) plasticity index less than 15.

e:<:isting fill has lo~ expansion potential and can be used ~or
select fill. GenerJlly, the fill is more than one foot thick
I cn2 bJilding area. Settlement under the higher
col:..:.::~~'l. loads (ES and 72 kips) should be no more than one inch
and postconstruction differential settlement should be less than
1/2 inch. Geologic/seismic hazards that we evaluated are discussed
in the following paragraphs.
Ground Shaking
I The site will experience strong shaking during anticipated
future earthquakes originating on either the Concord, Hayward or
I San Andreas faults. Movement on other faults could also produce
earthquake shaking at the site. The intensity of shaking and
I the resulting lateral forces on structures during an earthquake
I will depend on the distance of the site to the earthquake focus,
magnitude of the earthquake, and response of the underlying soils.
I Within the average building lifetime (about 50 years), the
probable future maximum intensity is on the order of VII-IX
I (Modified Mercalli Scale).
I Faulting
Our subsurface investigation found no indications that would
I suggest active faulting within the site. Furthermore, our
I aerial photo analysis and surface reconnaissance revealed no sur-
face indications that fault traces projected along strike would
I pass through the site.

I I
HARDING- LAWSON ASSOC IA iES
While there is always some possibility for future faultinc:
I in any seismically active region, historical occurrences of sur-
I I I I I I
face faulting have generally closely followed the trace of rncst
recently active faults. Therefore, future surface faulting is f~r
more likely to occur on known active traces of the Concord fault
away from the site.
Liquefaction and Densif ication
Loose, uniformly-grained sandy soils can experience a loss
of strength resulting in a reorientation of grains and settlement
as a result of strong ground shaking. All of the discontinuous
and heterogeneous alluvium penetrated in our borings possesses
high strengths as indicated by the standard penetration count
I shown on the boring logs. Therefore, the sandy soils are unlikcl~·
to densify or liquefy.
I Flooding and Landsliding
I The elevation of the site and its distance from the San
Francisco Bay preclude the risk of flooding from earthquake-induced
I waves such as tsunamis or seiches. There are no nearby large
I bodies of water (reservoirs or tanks} that could flood the site
if they were damaged by an earthquake. We understand that exist-
I ing flood control facilities are designed to prevent areal flood-
ing from exceptional storms estimated to occur once in one hundred
I years.
I There is no risk of landsliding because the soils are firm
and the site and surrounding area are nearly level.

Site Pre?aratia~ ~~l Grading
The existing asphaltic concrete should be removed or
pulverized in the areas to be graded. Pulverized asphalt and
aggregate base then should be stripped and stockpiled for use as
select fill. Expansive natural soils, if exposed in the building
area, should be excavated as required to provide for at least 12
inches of select fill beneath the slab. The 4 inches of gravel
for a moisture break should not be used as part of the select fill
blanket. The building area then should be proofrolled with heavy
construction equipment. Soft or pumping soils should be excavated
to expose firm soil. The upper six inches of exposed soil then
should be scarified to a depth of at least six inches, moisture
conditioned to slightly above optimum moisture content, and com-
pacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction.*
On-site or imported select fill material should be placed
in lifts eight inches or less in loose thickness, moisture condi-
tioned, and compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction.
Foundation Support
Foundation support can be obtained with shallow spread foot-
ings bottomed in the firm natural soils or in properly compacted
fill. The trench (shown on Plate 1) for the geologic investigation
* Relative compaction refers to the in-place dry density of soil expressed as a percentage of the maximum dry density of the same material, as determined by the ASTM Dl557-70(C) laboratory test procedure.

was backfilled under our engineering inspection. Field density
tests indicate that the backfill was compacted to at least·90
percent relative compaction. However, if footings are placed o~,
the trench excavation, we should inspect the excavations to veri"y
that firm soils are present below the footings. Foundations can
be designed to impose dead load bearing pressures of 2000 pounds
per square foot (psf) and 3000 psf for total design loads, incl~:in~
seismic forces. All footings should be bottomed at least 18 inch~3
below lowest adjacent final grade. Spread and column footings
should be at least 12 and 18 inches wide, respectively.
For resistance to lateral loads, use a passive pressure of
1500 psf against the face of footings. If the area around the
footing is unpaved, the upper 12 inches of soil should be neglected
for computing passive pressure. A friction factor of 0.3 can be
used on the bottom of the footing to develop additional lateral
restraint.
Slab-on-Grade Floors
The soils beneath the floor slab should be kept moist until
concrete is placed. Floor slabs should be underlain by at least
12 inches of select fill. In addition, slabs should be underlain
by at least four inches of clean, free-draining gravel or crushed
rock to provide a capillary moisture break. Moisture vapor will
condense on the underside of the slab and, where migration of
moisture through the slab would be detrimental, a vapor barrier
should be provided.

Prior to pavement construction, underground utilities should
be installed and properly backfilled.
Pavement subgrade should be scarified to a defth of at least
six inches, moisture conditioned, and compacted to at least 95
percent relative compaction to provide a dense, nonyielding sur-
face. Aggregate base material then should be placed and compacted
to at least 95 percent relative compaction. The subgrade soils
and base should be kept moist until the asphaltic concrete is
placed.
Construction Inspection
We recommend that the site preparation and grading, and
excavating for foundations be performed under our engineering
inspection so the soil conditions encountered in the field can
be correlated with the results of our investigation. We shou:'..d
check the quality and compaction of fill material as it is placed.
