This drain should consist of a 4-inch diameter perforated pipe within an envelope <br /> of washed rock, extending at least 6 inches on all sides of the pipe. The washed rock should <br /> conform to WSDOT Section 9-03.12(4), Gravel Backfill for Drains or 9-03.12(5), Gravel Backfill <br /> for Drywells. The washed rock envelope should be wrapped with filter fabric (such as Mirafi 140N) <br /> to reduce the migration of fines from the surrounding soil. Ideally, the drain invert would be <br /> installed no more than 8 inches above or below the base of the perimeter footings. The perimeter <br /> foundation drain should not be connected to roof downspout drains and should be constructed to <br /> Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 13 <br />
