In accordance with Section <br />1806.2 of the 2022 California Building Code. It is recommended that the following <br />parameters should be considered in the foundation design and construction: <br /> <br />For conservative, the lowest values in table 1806.2, 2022 CBC Code, allowable bearing <br />value of 1500 pounds per square foot. <br /> <br />7.2.2 Settlement <br />Distress to the existing house due to settlement of the underlying soil was not observed. <br />Settlement of soils underlying is not a concerned for the proposed development. <br />Under construction, differential settlement between adjacent columns is not anticipated to <br />exceed 1/4 inch for the adjacent column spaced at a distance of about 40 feet. <br /> <br />7.2.3 Lateral Pressures <br />Passive earth pressure may be computed as an equivalent fluid pressure of 150 pounds per <br />cubic foot, with a maximum earth pressure of 1500 pounds per square foot. An allowable <br />coefficient of friction between soil and concrete of 0.3 may be used with the dead load forces. <br />When combining passive pressure and frictional resistance, the passive pressure component <br />should be reduced by one-third. <br /> <br />FLOOD ZONE - 718 S <br />Flintridge Dr Unit# 23/26/2025
