[OSHPD 2} The report shall consider the effects of seismic hazard in accordance with Section 1803.7. 1803.7 Geohazard reports. [OSHPD 2] Geohazard reporis shall be requived for all proposed construction Exceptions: 1. Reports are not required far one-story, woodt-frome «and lighe-steet-Srame buildings of Type V construc: tion and 4,000 square feer (371 n2) or les is floor area, not located within Earthquake Fault Zones or Seismic Hezard Zanes as shown inthe most recently published maps fram the California Geological Sus vey (CGS); nonstruewral, associated structural or voluntary ‘strucnurat alterasions and incidental structural additions or alterations, and structural repairs for other than earthquake damage. 2. A previous report for a specifie sire may be resubmit ted, provided thas a reevaluation is made and the report is found to be eurrenily appropriate The purpose of the geohazardl report shall be to identify geologic and seismic conditions that may require project Initigations. The reports shall contain data which provide ‘an assessment of the nature of the site and potential for earthquake damage based on appropriate investigations of the regional and site geology, project foundation condi tions aind the potential seismic’ shaking ot the site. The report shall be prepared by a California-certified engi- neering geologist in consultation with a Calfforniacregis tered geotechnical engineer. The preparation of the geohaczard report shall consider the most recent COS Note 48; Checklist for the Review of Engineering Geology and Seismology Reporis for Califor hia Public School, Hospitals, and Essential Services Buildings. In adldition, she most recent version of CGS Special Publication 42, Fault Rupture Hazard Zones in California, shall be considered for project sites proposed within an Alguist-Priolo Earthguake Fault Zone. The most recent version of CGS Special Publication 117, Guidelines {for Evaluating and Mitigating Seismic Hazards in Califor. ‘nia, shall be considered for project sites proposed within a Seismic Hazard Zone. All conclusions shall be fully sup- ported by satisfactory data and analysis 146 In addition to requirements in Sections 1803.5.11 and 1803,5.12, the report shall include, but shall not be limited 10, the following 1. Site geology. 2, Evaluation of the knowa active and potentially active ‘faults, both regional and local, 3 Ground-motion parameters, as required by Section 1613 and ASCE? SECTION 1804 EXCAVATION, GRADING AND FILL 1804.1 Excavation near foundations. Excavation for any ‘purpose shall not remove lateral support from any foundation ‘without first underpinning or protecting the foundation against seitlement or lateral translation, 1804.2 Placement of backfill. The excavation outside the Foundation shall be backfilled with soil that is free of organic ‘material, construction debris, cobbles and boulders or with & controlled low-strength material (CLSM). The backfill shal be placed in lifts and compacted in a manner that does not damage the foundation or the waterproofing or dampproofing material Exception: CLSM need not be compacted. 1804.3 Site grading. The ground immediately adjacent to the foundation shall be Sloped away from the building at a slope ‘of not less than one unit vertical in 20 units horizontal (-per- cent slope) for a minimam distance of 10 feet (3048 mm) measured perpendicular to the face of the wall. If physical ‘obstructions of Jot lines prohibit 10 feet (3048 mm) of hori- zontal distance, a S-percent slope shall be provided to an approved altemative method of diverting water away from the foundation. Swales used for this purpose shall be sloped a minimum of 2 percent where located within 10 feet G048 ‘mm) of the building foundation. Lmpervious surfaces within 10 feet (3048 mm) of the building foundation shall be sloped ‘amninimum of 2 percent away from the building, Exception: Where climatic or soil conditions warrant, the slope of the ground away from the building foundation shall be permitted to be reduced to not less than one unit vertical in 48 units horizontal (2-percent slope). ‘The procedure used to establish the final ground level adjacent to the foundation shall account for additional settle- ment of the backfill 18043.1 [HCD 1} Construction plans. Construction plans shall indicate how the site grading or drainage sys- fem will manage all surface water flows t0 keep water from entering buildings in aceordance with the California Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen), Chapter 4, Division 4.1. 1804.4 Grading and fill in lood hazard areas. In flood haz~ ard areas established in Section 1612.3, grading andéor fill shall not be approved: I. Unless such fill is placed, compacted and sloped to minimize shifting, slumping and erosion during the rise ‘and fall of Nood water and, as applicable, wave action. 201 CALIFORNIA BUILDING CODE
