If additional lateral load resistance is needed, a proportion of available passive resistance
between the pile cap and adjacent soii can be utilized- We recommend an equivalent fluid
density of 200 and 300 pounds per cubic foot be used to estimate allowable passive pressure
resistance in conjunction with lateral pile deflections of L'4 inch a --id 12 inch, respectively
Lateral pile capacity and passive soil resistance at intermediate lateral defle=[ions may be
estimate by linear interpolation.

4.5 FLOORS
4-5.1 Strucrural Flaors
A structural floor s}stem is appropriate, prodded the slab is structurally supported by the pile
foundation system. The slab should still be unde-lain by a capillary break system as discussed
below.
Capillary Break- Minimum of 4 inches of free -draining gravel with sand containing less than 5
Percent fines (silt and clav-sized particles) based on the fraction passi :g the 3/4-inch mesh sieve.
Vapor Barrier: In areas where moistly would be detrimental to equipment, floor coverings or
furnishings inside the building a vapor barrier should be placed beneath the concrete floor slab.
Reinforced plastic sheeting is satisfactory for this purpose.
