The trenches <br />and the dra'vl lines should have a sufficient gradient (0.5% muumum) to generate fiow by <br />gravity. The drain lines should be wrapped in a nan-woven filter fabric sock and <br />completely enclosed in clean washed gravel. The re�naining trenches may be backfilled <br />with clean onsite soils. Water collected by the perimeter footing subdrain systems should <br />be tightlined, separatel}� from the roof and sur�ace stormwater drain lines, to discharge <br />it;`� ��,'r,-,.'� �Pi�'�?' �r �,,;t;��,1P sto�nwat�� ci�snosat fa�ilitieS. <br />Surface Drainage <br />Water should not be allowed to stand in any areas where footings, on-grade slabs, or <br />pavement is to be constructed. Finish ground surface should be graded to direct surface <br />runoff away irom proposed buildings. We recommend the finish ground be sloped at a <br />gradient of 3 percent minimum for a distance of at least 10 feet away from the buildings, <br />except in the areas to be paved. <br />Cleanouts <br />Sufficient number of cleanouts at strategic location� should be provided for underground <br />drain lines. The underground drain ]ines should be cleaned and maintained periodically <br />to prevent clogging. <br />LIU & ASSOCIATES, INC. <br />
