October 3, 2016 <br /> Single-Family Residence <br /> L&A Job No. 16-124 <br /> Page 18 <br /> compacted in accordance with the recommendations provided in the S 1RUCTURAL <br /> FILL section of this report. <br /> We recommend that a layer of compacted, 7/8-inch crushed rock base (CRB), be placed <br /> for the driveway. This crushed rock base should be at least 4 inches thick. This crushed <br /> rock base should be topped by a 3-inch-thick Class B asphalt concrete (AC) surficial <br /> course. <br /> DRAINAGE CONTROL <br /> Building Footprint Excavation <br /> Footprint excavation for the proposed residence, if encountering groundwater seepage, <br /> should have bottom of excavation sloped slightly and ditches excavated along bases of <br /> the cut banks to direct collected groundwater into sump pits from which water can be <br /> pumped out. A layer of 2-inch crushed rock should be placed over footing bearing <br /> subgrade soils, as required, to protect the soils from disturbance by construction traffic. <br /> This crushed rock base should be built to a few inches above groundwater level, but not <br /> less than 6 inches thick. The crush rock base should be compacted in 12-inch lifts to a <br /> non-yielding state with a vibratory mechanical compactor. <br /> Runoff over Impervious Surfaces <br /> Storm runoff over impervious surfaces, such as roofs and paved driveway, should be <br /> collected by underground drain line systems connected to roof downspouts and by catch <br /> basins installed in paved driveway. Stormwater thus collected should be tightlined to <br /> discharge onto a energy-dissipating rock spall pad constructed at the gully bottom. <br /> LW & ASSOCIATES, INC. <br /> '2:3 <br />
