Ponding <br />of water sliou].9 not be permitted under any circumstances <br />adjacent to the sCructures. RunofE trom building downspouts <br />should be carried in sepatate lines from the footing drains. <br />All runo.f so collected ehould be carried in tightlines away <br />Erom tlie building area to some positive, permanent disctiarge <br />facility. <br />vement Areas <br />All parking and roadway areas should br_ underlain by the <br />recompacted native ttll soils or a minimum of twelve (12) incties <br />oE structural fill placed in accordance with the Site Prepara- <br />tion section of tliis report. A greater tliickness may be neces- <br />sary to stabilize any soft or unstable areas. Tl�e upper twelve <br />(12) inches of pavement subgrade shoul� be compacted to at least <br />95 percent oE tlie maximum densiCy. �elow ttiis level a compac- <br />tive eEfort of 90 perceiit would be adequate, unless lhe higher <br />density was required Cor ctability oE tlie fills. The pavement <br />section for liglitly loaded trafEic or parking areas should con- <br />sist of two (2) inclies of Asplialt Surfacing over four (4) inches <br />of Crushed Rock oase or.three (3) inches oE Asphalt Treated Fiase <br />(ATU). Iieavier loaded traEfic nreas will require thicker sec- <br />tions. Dased upon the presently available data frcm adjacent <br />sites we suggest tliat a stabilometer R-value of sixty (60) be <br />used for deslgn of a heavier pavement section on finn native <br />till soils. When such heavier pivementa are to be constructed <br />on structural fills, we recommend e factor of safety of two (2) <br />be used in conjunction witli tliis !t-value. Tliese values are <br />based upon the recommendations presented in the Site Preparation <br />section oE tliis report. • <br />Additional Services <br />It is recommended that Earth Consultants, Inc. be provided <br />the opportunity for a general review of the final design and <br />specifications in order that earthwork and foundation recommenda- <br />tions may be properly interp�eted and implemented in the design <br />and construction. <br />Tl�e analyses and recommendations submitted in th3s report <br />are based upon tlie data obtained from the test plts.
