20.08.064 variation on soil, bearing capacity, compressibility, liquefaction and expansiveness. (Ord. 1778 § 2, 1999) 20.08.065 Section 1804.3 Amended - Reports: Section 1804.3 of the California Building Standards Code 1998 Edition (24 CCR), and including by reference the Uniform Building Code, 1997 Edi- tion, parts 1, 2 and 3 is amended to read as follows: 1804.3 Reports. The soil classifica- tion and design-bearing capacity shall be shown on the plans, unless the foundation conforms to Table 18-I-C. The building official may require submission of a written re- port of the investigation, which shall include, but need not be limited to, the following information: 1. A plot showing the location of all test borings and/or excavations. 2. Descriptions and classifications of the materials encountered. 3. Elevation of the water table, if encountered. 4. Recommendations for foundation type and design criteria, including bearing capacity, provisions to miti- gate the effects of liquefaction and soil strength, and the effects of adja- cent loads. 5. Expected total and differential settlement. 6. Drainage and erosion control recommendations. 7. Minimum building setbacks to slope tops or toes. 8. Equivalent-fluid-density lateral loads used in design of retaining walls or basement walls. 9. Ground response evaluation by geologist licensed in California for a. flexible structures located on site having soft to medium cohesionless soils in upper 50 feet and depth to bedrock is 400 feet or greater, and b. structures having irregular shapes, framing systems, or other unusual features as determined by the building official. 10. Liquefaction evaluation for the following uses: a. Subdivisions of Group R-3 occupancy having 100 units or more; b. Apartment or condominium complexes of Group R-1 occupancy having 50 or more units; c. Structure of four or more sto- ries or over 35 feet high; d. Commercial, industrial, and institutional projects having 250 occupants or more; e. Essential facilities. 11. Slope stability evaluation in areas subject to localized or major landslides. 12. Surface rupture evaluation by geologist licensed in California for all projects for human occupancy located with a Geologic Hazards Special Studies Zone, as mapped by the California Division of Mines and Geology. 13. Soils report shall specify soil profile type according to Section 1629.3.1 and Table 16-J of the 702_ 1 (Pleasanton April 2000)
