Civic Center Tower S Background and Approach Pion ct�Background and Understanding The City of Huntington Beach is contemplating to structurally strengthen the Civic Center Tower which is a 6 story high (above ground) building with semi ductile concrete frame and concrete joist system (at both the floors and the roof) construction The building has a one level basement The building was constructed using the 1970 Uniform Building Code (UBC) and is supported by a deepened concrete pile foundation system We understand that from past studies performed for the City it has predicted that there is a high probability that the building will likely be severely damaged by major seismic event and will pose a significant life safety hazard tom the occupants The primary object of the planned seismic mitigation work is to upgrade the seismic performance of the building such that it will meet the Life Safety Performance Level (LSPL) goal as defined in FEMA 356 LSPL requires the building be analyzed for two different levels of earthquakes Basic Safety Earthquakes (BSE) I and 2 BSE 1 is an earthquake with ground motions that correspond to exceedance probabilities of 10 percent to 50 years while BSE 2 corresponds to 2 percent in 50 years General Site Geology and Subsurface Conditions The site is located on the Huntington Beach Mesa in the southwestern portion of the Los Angeles Basin The Huntington Beach Mesa is one of the aligned northwest to southeast trending hills and mesas identified as tectonic uplifts along the Newport Inglewood fault zone The subsurface in the site area is Quaternary alluvium and marine terrace deposits of the Lakewood formation, primarily composed of dense to very dense sand, silty sand, and minor gravel The California Geological Survey (CGS) shows the depth to historically high groundwater at the site to be in excess of 30 feet below ground surface The site is in a seismically active region that will be subjected to future seismic shaking during earthquakes generated by any of several surrounding active faults The Newport Inglewood fault which is the closest active surface fault to the Project site passes about 1000 feet to the north The Newport Inglewood fault was the source for the 1933 M6 3 Long Beach earthquake It caused major damage and the loss of 115 lives in Long Beach and surrounding communities of Los Angeles The primary geologic/seismic hazard for the proposed Project site will be strong ground shaking generated during earthquakes on nearby faults The intensity of ground shaking, or strong ground motion is dependent upon the distance of the seismic source the magnitude and duration of the earthquake and the underlying soil conditions at the site The Project site is not located within a liquefaction hazard zone and is located at about 500 feet outside of the Alquist Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone for the Newport Inglewood fault Therefore it is not anticipated that the liquefaction potential or surface fault rupture represent significant hazards for the project Approach Our general approach for the proposed site geotechnical investig-ition is principally designed to characterize the anticipated ground motions for the Project site and to verify our preliminary assessment that liquefaction and surface fault rupture are not significant hazards for the Project Other geologic/seismic hazards including, expansive or collapsible soils flooding landslides subsidence slope stability tsunami seiche differential seismic settlement and methane would also be addressed TIRS TIDE CTFVQF HUNTINGTON BEACH WZ t Geotechnical Engineering Services gismic Strengthening of the Civic Center Tower LJO Methodologies FOtingeotechnicdl investigation at the Project site will be to advance subsurface exploratory holes utilizing the continuous sounding technique or commonly referred to as the cone penetration test (CPT) method with a cone penetrometer to explore the subsurface conditions in order to evaluate site specific subsurface soil conditions and to develop geotechnical and seismic design recommendations for the retrofit design and construction of the Project In the CPT soundings a small diameter cone is pushed into the soil while the resistance at the cone tip and side friction from a sleeve above the tip are registered electronically at very small intervals (about 0 07 feet) A direct push device will be used along with the CPT set up to allow continuous sampling of the soils The data are used directly to correlate and interpret soil classification types and also correlate with other data to evaluate soil strength parameters The CPT data will be compared with the boring logs presented in the Seismicity Study and Preliminary Soil Engineering Investigation' performed by Robert Stone &Associates Inc dated April 16 1970 for further correlation Upon completion of correlation the data can then be used for geotechnical and seismic analyses The advantages of using the CPT method are the collected data are continuous as compared to conventional drilled boring method and also CPT method are less destructive to the existing decorative hardscapes surrounding the Civic Center Tower Our geotechnical services will be performed in accordance with FEMA 356 guidelines the 2000 International Building Code (IBC) 1997 Uniform Building Code (UBC) the 2001 California Building Code (CBC) City of Huntington Beach Grading Ordinances and Building Code, and California Geological Survey (CGS) Specifically, CGS s Notes 42 44 and 48 will be followed closely Our laboratory testing will be performed in accordance with the latest ASTM Standards and California Test Methods In order to accomplish the purposes and objectives of this geotechnical study the following Work Plan will be implemented The Work Plan is to divide the required work into a series of six (6) tasks which are described in the following paragraphs Work Plan Task 1 Geotechnical and Geologic Data Review Upon receipt of a Notice to Proceed (NTP) URS will develop a thorough understanding of the assignment through discussions with City representatives and the Project design team We will review the existing available geotechnical and geologic data relevant to the Project site which may include data contained in our in house records/database as well as available geotechnical or soils report by others and published information and records We will also carefully review available stereo paired aerial photographs for the Project site and nearby vicinity with particular focus on identifying any apparent structural lineament near the Project site as part of our fault rupture potential assessment Geologic and seismic information will be evaluated by a California Certified Engineering Geologist and reviewed by a California Registered Geotechnical Engineer from our office Task 2 Subsurface Exploration and Laboratory Testing Based on our understanding of the project scheme we will prepare an appropriate subsurface exploration program to gather geotechnical data to support the structural seismic evaluation and where necessary for the retrofit design and construction of the Project The exploration will be performed to depths adequate to address foundation design as well as to satisfy requirements of the reviewing agencies The objectives of the subsurface exploration program are as follows V iW 5 TRUCTMOF HUNTINGTON BEACH-!

Evaluation Evaluate geologic and seismic hazards based on guidelines established by CGS and outlined in their Special Publication 117 (1997) Geologic hazards include slope stability/landsliding, erosion subsidence and poor soil conditions The primary seismic hazard expected at this site is strong ground shaking which will be discussed in details in the next Task However surface fault rupture liquefaction seismically induced settlements lateral spread displacement and earthquake induced flooding will also be evaluated but are not expected to be impact the structural seismic evaluation and retrofit design of the Project Task 4-Seismic Ground Motion Hazard Analysis Development of Site Specific Response Spectrum for BSE 1 and BSE 2 per FEMA 356 We will develop earthquake source models for the active faults that contribute significantly to the seismic hazard at the site We will select ground motion attenuation relations that are appropriate for the soil conditions at the site We will perform probabilistic seismic hazard calculations at the site using this information These hazard calculations will incorporate near fault rupture directivity effects using the model developed by URS (Somerville et al 1997) These calculations will result in hazard curves showing the response spectral ground motion level as a function of return period for a range of response spectral periods and response spectra for various return periods including BSE 1 and BSE 2 (return periods of 475 and 2,475 years respectively) The response spectra in the fault normal direction may be larger than those in the fault parallel direction at periods longer than 0 5 seconds due to rupture directivity effects We will develop response spectra for BSE 1 and BSE 2 using damping ratios of 5 percent TIRS 6

Check Manager City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach CA 92648 Subject Addendum to URS'Proposal for Geotechnical Engineering Services Seismic Strengthening of the Civic Center Tower Dear Mr Caraig URS Corporztion (URS) is pleased to submit our addendum to our February 2 2006 proposal based on the City s request during our meeting on February 16 2006 This addendum contains our revised Seismic Ground Motion Hazard Analysis qualifications and scope and our revised cost estimate to provide geotechnical engineering services for the City of Huntington Beach Civic Center Tower Seismic Strengthening Project We would like to resubmit our organization chart for this proposal with Dr C B Crouse as our lead to provide Seismic Ground Motion Hazard Analysis City of Huntington Beach LZ Fand Motamed PE Garry Lay PE GE, Paul Somerville PhD x C B Crouse PhD PE Da wu PE GE Chns Goetz PG A little background information about Dr Crouse Dr Crouse is a Register Engineer in the State of California (Civil Engineer CE No 29085 1978) He has performed seismic hazard analyses and developed seismic design criteria for mzjor projects in California and throughout the world during his 31 year professional career These projects include new and existing buildings bridges dams storage tanks and pipelines offshore platforms power generation facilities and nuclear waste facilities Dr Crouse recently conducted seismic ground motion hazard analysis for the proposed Emergency Operation Center (EOC) of the new Los Angeles City Police Headquarters Facility This work was performed in consultltion with Saiful Boquet the structural engineering firm for the project He also performed similar recent studies for the Port of Long Beach LNG Project County of Los Angeles Hospital Retrofit Projects and hospital projects in San Diego County Dr Crouse has been actively involved in building code development work He is presently chairman of the NEHRP Technical Subcommittee on Ground Motion and Foundation Design which is responsible for developing enhancements to the n-itional seismic provisions on these topics This subcommittee is under the direction of the BSSC Provisions Update Committee which generates the proposed revisions to the International Building Code URS Corporation 2020 East First Street Suite 400 Santa Ana CA 92705 Tel 714/835 6886 Fax 714/667 7147 www urscorp corn With participation of Dr Crouse our task for the Seismic Ground Motion Hazard Analysis (Task 4 of our February 2 2006 proposal) is revised slightly as follows Task 4—Seismic Ground Motion Hazard Analysts Development of Site Specific Response Spectrum for BSE 1 and BSE 2 per FEMA 356 We will develop earthquake source models for the active faults that contribute significantly to the seismic hazard at the site We will select ground motion attenuation relations that are appropriate for the soil conditions at the site Using this information we will perform probabilistic and deterministic seismic hazard calculations at the site per the requirements in FEMA 356 These hazard calculations will consider near fault rupture directivity effects (Somerville et al 1997) These calculations will result in response spectra for BSE I and BSE 2 The response spectra in the fault normal direction may be larger than those in the fault parallel direction at periods longer than 0 5 seconds due to rupture directivity effects We will develop response spectra for BSE 1 and BSE 2 using damping ratios of 5 percent Development of Seven Time History Records for BSE 1 and BSE 2 per FEMA 356 We will provide seven 3 component ground motion time histories for each of the two return periods The ground motion time histories will be selected from recordings of earthquakes whose magnitudes and recording distances are representative of those that dominate the hazard at the site as indicated by the deaggregation of the seismic hazard The ground motion time histories will be scaled according to the criteria in FEMA 356 The time histories will be first scaled to the BSE 1 or BSE 2 level as directed by the project structural engineer The same time histories will then be rescaled to the other BSE level The above revised task reflects the similar seismic ground motion hazard analysis scope for the EOC project which we understand will be adopted by Saiful Boquet for this project The revised cost to provide services to the city is presented in the attached Table The revised time and material cost to provide the services outlined in our February 2 2006 proposal is $30 770 The reduced cost estimate reflects discounted professional rates as well as the total Cone Penetration Testing (CPT) footage from 200 feet to 150 feet However the numbers of CPT test holes will remain at a total of two (2) Our revised fee will be valid for 90 days from date of this addendum We appreciate the opportunity to submit our geotechnical engineering qualifications and proposal to the City and we are available to discuss our qualifications/proposal at greater length if desired Please contact the undersigned at (714) 433 7636 or (213) 996 2472 with any questions about our
