Geotechnical Report - _ __ , .sed <br />Proposed Apartments: 1002, 1006, �ind 1008 Broadway Sireet, Everett, WashinUtou <br />May 12, 2015 <br />sliding resistance developed between the concrete and the subgrade soil. Passive soil <br />resistance may be calculated using an equivalent fluid weight of 350 pcf, assuming <br />foundations are backfilled with structural fill. The above values include a factor of safety <br />of 1.5. Unless covered by pavements or slabs, the passive resistance in the upper 12 <br />inches of soil should be neglected. <br />4.2.2 Perimeter Footing Drains <br />Tooting drains should be installed around the perinleter of the building, at or just below <br />the invert of the footings. Under no circumstances should roof downspout drain lines be <br />connected to the footing drain systems. Rooi�downspouts must be separately tightlined to <br />appropriate discharge locations. Cleanouts should be installed at strategic locations to <br />allow for periodic maintenance of the footing drain and downspout tightline systems. <br />4.2.3 Footing Subgrade Preparation <br />All footing subgrade should be properly prepared and in a dense condition prior to setting <br />fonr�s and placing reinforcing steel. Any loose or softened soil should be removed from <br />the footing excavations. The adequacy of the footing subgrade soils should be verified <br />by a representative of PanGEO, prior to placing forins or rebar. <br />4.3 FLOORS SLABS <br />The floor slabs for the proposed building may be constructed using conventional concrete <br />slab-on-grade floor construction. The floor slab should be supported on competent native <br />soil or on structural till, Any over-excavatioils, if needed, should be backfilled with <br />structural fill. <br />Interior concrete slab-on-grade floors should be underlain by a capillary break consisting <br />of at least of 4 inches of pea gravel or compacted 3/4-inch, clean crushed rock (less than 3 <br />percent fines). The capillary break material should meet the gradational requirements <br />provided in Table 2, below, <br />Table 2— Capillary Break Gradation <br />Sieve Size Percent Passing <br />3/4-inch 100 <br />No. 4 0 — 10 <br />15-04R 1008 [3roadway, Revised Page % <br />PanGGO, lnc. <br />
