It is rioted pile quantines, may cliange per interior grade beam locations. The purpose of the piling installation is to support the failed areas and improve elevations in arels of differential settlement if possible. Please see the limited repair plan for more information. The foundation repairsare to meet or exceed 2021 IRC. Maititew-im-e We recommend pre-lit'l and post -lift plumbing tests be performed oil the sewer and potable plumbing fines. The Z� - results of the tests should be iiiiiiiediately provided to our office, Mairitainim, as fuliv frinctioni'my ratter systeni will minimize bonding. soil loss and erosion, and will help Control seasonal movement near the foundation. Tile mitter sN'stem should direct storm-N-vcater dischime away from the foundation through downspouts to a well -drained area that is graded away from the foundation. Optimally, we recommend the utter sysrem disclian-le via iii-ground solid pipe to -I low-lying area far away from the foundation. Ve,jetation marilreirarice and as foundation and vard-watering program NN-111 also help control seasonal movement, Nlaintaining- consistent moisture levels III supporting soils atall times of theyear is necessary. It is important that the soils be stabilized and timintained Nvith grass or ground cover around tile perimeter of the struettire to prevent erosion and an exposed or improperly embedded foundation. Large to medium-sized trees. and even tar ge or numerous shrubs. urowimi wo close to a foundation can dramatically effect the moisture content of the soils within tile zone of influence beneath the structure, Root wstenis extract large quarintres of water from underl-ving soils and result III lart7e volunietric chaiwes in the soils (shrinkage). As the tree absorbs water from the soil and tile soil volume decreases. the foundation will -settle in unsupported, If problematic roots are observed, we recommend removal or installation of tree root barriers. Gradim! of the soils around the foundation is I critical element to vour foundations health. Sloping the snits away from the home and preventing water from poilding near tire foundation is needed to prevent soil 4-heave". Il'bonding is noticed near the foundation during the rainy season. consult withan engineer or drainage contractor immediately. Over-saturaied soil-, can cause "heave- or settlement and contribute to foundation movement, Eypectritions of the Dinirecl Founi'lation Revoirs: The proposed limited repair plan is interided to provide as reasonable plan to improve the performance of the foundation and is not intended to level the foundation, The contractor shall determine the amoum ofelevation correction needed based on tile reaction of the structure during the lift iii order to minimize damages and additional stress, Because the structure lias endured foundation movement and framing distress, residual differential elevation and perceptible floor slope or some leaning door frairiesNvindows or other re -occurring damages and noticeable issues may remain following the foundation repairs.
