M2�''^View Drive <br /> Everett, W <br /> 425-252-41. <br /> Subject: Pole Building Permit 80803-014—Foundation Options <br /> As requested I have reviewed your situation where your groundwater Ievei is higher than the bottom of <br /> the post holes.There are a number of oplions to pour the concrete in the holes with the water there. <br /> This is a fairiy common probtem especially with dock construction. <br /> The method we discussed to be used in this case is as follows: <br /> 1. Clean the holes out of mud and water. <br /> 2. Place 6-12"of Kwikcrete dry in the bottom oi the hole. <br /> 3. Place the poles so they will have at least 3'of the pole in the remaining concrete up to grade. <br /> 4. Remove as much water as possible before pouring lhe concrete around the poles. <br /> 5. Pour the concrete in one mass from one location to fill lhe hole while pushing the water out of <br /> the hole. Do not mix the concrete with the water but pour the concrete fairly stiH so it will stay <br /> as one mass so it will push the water out of the hole. Some cement will come out with the <br /> water but the strength of the concrete will be adequate to transfer the load to the surrounding <br /> soil. <br /> I hope this adequately addresses this issue(or the inspector. If you have any further questions or I can <br /> be of any(urther assistance please call me at lhe above numbers. <br /> PAO D. ,y �', <br /> \V1` op w�s ,ticc�ocn <br /> Q'�� . , <br /> . �� l ( ' tr Z q <br /> �/ pd'��S fG S7EP��G���� ���IJ \'' rL, <br /> '�� D <br /> j� S/ONALE� t.��11Iv� � <br /> ocPiRes�z•�aob APk 1 R L��'�8 <br /> Ci1'Y OF E�JERETT <br /> Rick Heide, P.E.
