Since� <br />however� some etructures may be located near the ateep elope are <br />we believe a building set-back lia�it should be es�ablished. <br />Based upon our observations and past expe:cisn.^.e. we believe a <br />building set-back of 2$ feet should be adequate to maintain a <br />atable building aite area within the oteep elope areas. This <br />generally ahould be utilizad along the toLal eaeterly ateep aloF <br />area and approximately one-half of the weaterly ateep elope aree <br />The northern portion of the weeterly elope is much leee steep ar. <br />a eignificant top-of-slope ia leae obvioue. We euggeat Mithin <br />this area that a building eet-back oP 10 feet ehould be adequate <br />Residence foundatione ahould be placed into the dease natural <br />soils� found generally 2' to 3' below grade� belorr +he organic <br />topsoil and root ladden atrata. Maximum allowabla eoil preasure <br />of 2500 pounde per aquere t'oot (pat') ehould be anticipated� ueir. <br />continuoue type footinga� placed a minimum of 18" below finiah <br />grade as to be below froat line. In some of the moderate alope <br />areas, this may require atepped foundatione to adequately pene- <br />trate the natural denae soile. Should basementa be desired, <br />the upelope walls ehould be deaigned ae rataining walle, ueing <br />adequaLe drainage and equivalent f'luid preseuree of 40 pounde <br />per eubic foot (pef). <br />Adequate drainage ehould be provided around the structurea ` <br />conefating of foundation and roof drain eyatema independantly <br />directed into the main stor�.drainage syetem or approved outfall <br />area. Retaining walle ahould utilize a perYorated pipe basal dz <br />connected to an 18" tbick washed aggregate blanket behind th� <br />wall which extenda to within lf" of the aurface, which is direct <br />into the main drainage system. <br />L.�.,.n-ti-_ •���-,�,-��-�...,.,�-_._.._..._- <br />
