I observed that movement and distress of the foundation wall has taken place in <br /> the area adjacent to the two windows in the family room at the Southeast corner of the building. It was my <br /> opinion that the distress may be related to frost heave and movements of the wall in the area of the window <br /> well that serves the two windows. <br /> I have performed calculations in accordance with the Minnesota State Building code for repair methods in <br /> treating this wall. As a result of my calculations, I have prepared three drawings that illustrate three options <br /> for repairing the wall. The drawing number three contains general and project specific structural notes as <br /> well. The project specific notes indicated some of the measures that should be taken to limit the water that <br /> may be aggravating the frost conditions at the building foundations. <br /> Any of the three options will reinforce the wall, resist the anticipated lateral loads and will permanently <br /> stabilize the movements that have taken place. If you have any questions concerning the above, please do <br /> not hesitate to contact me. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Mattson Macdonald Young, Inc. <br /> �„� � � I hereby certify that this plan,specification or report was <br /> � prepared by me or under my direct supervision and that I am a <br /> duly licensed Professianal Engineer under[he laws of the State <br /> of Minnesota. <br /> David H.
