Intent 1:
To limit the probability of the inadequate drainage
of water from driveways where water can accumulate or enter a garage.
This is to limit the probability of:
- the exposure of building materials to water, or
- moisture-related expansion and contraction of the soil,
or frost heaving.
This is to limit the probability of:
- compromised structural integrity of garage foundations
and floors, or of elements they support, or
- deterioration, which could lead to compromised integrity
of elements supported or protected by garage foundation or floors.
This is to limit the probability of:
- the space being unsuitable for its intended use, or
- damage to the building.
