Seahorse Restaurant W-5583 <br /> 18 March 1988 Page 10 <br /> runoff should not discharge into the footing drain system. Instead, a separate <br /> . tight-lire drain network should be installed or splash blccks should be used to <br /> direct rainfall away from the completed building. <br /> Shoreline MalkMay <br /> We understand that a concrete walkway will be constructed around the perimeter of <br /> Silver Lake. This walkway will likely be provided in a25 foot easement from the <br /> mean shoreline of Silver Lake, which we understand is around elevation 547. � <br /> Considering the soils encountered in our test pit exploration, we feel that the <br /> proposed walkway can be founded directly on prerolled native ground or suitably <br /> compacted structural fill placed above dense native deposits. The w�lkway elevation <br /> should be set above mean lake elevation which we understand fluctuates depending <br /> upon season. We recommend that the sidewalk consist of a 3 to 4 inch, lightly <br /> reinforced concrete path, founded on a minimum of 4 inches of crushed rock or sand <br /> and gravel to serve as a drainage layer in the event that the sidewalk is inundated <br /> by the rising lake. Care should be taken to remove all soft, organic-rich surface <br /> , deposits beneath the sidewalk in order to minimize potential future differential <br /> settlements and sidewalk cracking. Preparation of the sidewalk subgrade should <br /> be done in accordance with the recommendations presented previously in this report <br /> under the section headings "Site Preparation" and "Structural Fill". <br /> CLOSURE <br /> The conclusions and recommendations presented in this report are based on the <br /> explorations accomplished for this stud;�. The number, locations and the depths <br /> of the explorations were completed with the site constraints so as to yield the ' <br /> information to formulate our recommendations. The integrity of the foundations <br /> depends on proper site preparation and construction procedure. We would be <br /> available to provide geotechnical engineering services during earthwork and <br /> foundation construction phases cf the project. If variations in the subsurface <br /> conditions are observed at that time, we would be available to provide additional <br /> geotechnical recommendations to minimize delays as the project develops. <br />
