1 <br /> I18.0 FL.00R �j�gT <br /> iSlab-on-grade floors may be constructed on [he medium dense to very dease or hard natura► <br /> sed'unents, or on strucdual fill placed over these materials. Areas of the slab subgrade that are <br /> � disturbed (loosened) during construction should be compacted to a non-yielding condition prior <br /> to placing the pea gravel as described below. <br /> ( Floor slabs to be used in areas where moisture inuusion through the slab is to be controlled should <br /> be consuucted atop a capillary break materia! and vapor barrier. The capillary break should <br /> consist of a minunum thickness of 4 inches of washed pea gravel with a moisture barrier on top <br /> Iof the capillary break. In addidon, as per American Concrete Institute recommendauons, a <br /> minimum of 2 inches of clean sand should be placed over the moisnue barrier to protect the <br /> integrity of the moisture barrier during concrete placement and to aid in the curing of the co�rete. <br /> j If ground wxter seepage is rncouncered within the slab excavation, a sub-slab drainage sysum may <br /> � be requ'ued and should be determined by AESI in the field at the time of construction. <br /> � 19.0 DRAi1vA ON ID . ATTO� <br /> IMany of the sediments encountered in our exploradons at the site were silty anci therefore are <br /> extremely moisture-sensidve. These soils, when wet and disnubed, will become s�g�p�� � <br /> � erosion potential. Therefore, prior W and during siu work, the contractor should Ue prepared co <br /> provide drainage and subgrade protection as necessary. <br /> � All perimeter footing walls should be provided with a drain at the base of the footing elevadon. <br /> Drains should consist of rigid, perforaud, PVC pipe surrounded by washed pea gravel. The level <br /> of the perforations in the pipe should be set approximately 2 i�hes below the botWm of the <br /> Ifootings and the drains should be constructed with sufficient gradient to allow gravity discharge <br /> away from the building. Roof and surface runoff should not discharge into the foodng drain <br /> system but should be handled by a separate, rigid, dghtline drain, In planning� �xterior grades <br /> Iadjacent to walls should be sloped downward away from the stiucuue to achieve surface drainage, <br /> At no time should water be dimted towazd or over steeply sloping areas. ,4I1 storm w,ater should <br /> Ibe d'uected to the storm water detention ponds. <br /> � 20.0 STORM WATFR D TFN17nN PnAm �`nt�Temr� •T--�-.� <br /> � Recomme�arions for construction of storm waur deuntion ponds were provided in out leaer <br /> entided "Storm Water Detention Pond Considerations", dated Jauuary 9, 1998. <br /> J <br /> C <br /> �� <br /> 1 <br />
