PROJECT: Sandy Shores Resort –

Typical Foundation Details REM #: 17-9698

NOTES/COMMENTS:

Rempel Engineering & Management Ltd has been hired by Sandy Shores Resort at Lake

Diefenbaker to produce sketches outlining several typical foundation construction details for

the future houses to be constructed at the resort. These details specify typical foundation

construction for some situations which fall outside of the scope of the prescriptive foundation

design parameters as per Part 9 of the NBCC 2010. This due to the higher lateral earth design

loads specified by the SNC Lavalin geotechnical report dated July 25, 2016.

The foundation design details attached in this report are as follows:

Typical foundation walls

- 8’ high x 8” thick concrete foundation wall with up to 6’ of backfill.

- 9’ high x 8” thick concrete foundation wall with up to 7’ of backfill.

- 4’ high x 8” thick concrete crawlspace wall with up to 3’-6” high backfill.

- 4’ high PWF (permanent wood foundation) crawlspace wall with up to 3’-6” high

backfill

Reinforcing for window openings of up to 8’ in width in the following foundation walls

- 8’ high x 8” thick concrete foundation wall with up to 6’ of backfill

- 9’ high x 8” thick concrete foundation wall with up to 7’ of backfill

Reinforcing in concrete foundation walls where a stairwell opening is adjacent

- 8’ high x 8” thick concrete foundation wall and 8’ wide stair opening.

- 8’ high x 8” thick concrete foundation wall and 14’ wide stair opening.

- 9’ high x 8” thick concrete foundation wall and 8’ wide stair opening.

- 9’ high x 8” thick concrete foundation wall and 14’ wide stair opening.

The intent of the attached details is not to eliminate the need for subsequent engineering on all

homes constructed in the area. The intent is to provide a prescriptive method similar to that

offered by the National Building Code of Canada in order to provide the specifications to easily

construct the majority of foundations. Any foundations which fall outside of the scope of this

report and Part 9 of the NBCC 2010 would require additional design by a Professional

Engineer licensed in Saskatchewan. Construction of the foundations are to be in strict

accordance with the details provided and any applicable codes/standards. Any alterations will

require approval from Rempel Engineering and Management Ltd.
