Soils/Structural Safety Sample Clauses

Soils/Structural Safety. Soils and engineered retaining walls shall not cause, in whole or in part, the structure to be structurally unsafe. This standard applies to soil conditions on your property and walls that have been engineered with the intention to retain soils on your property. This standard does not apply to load bearing walls that may also serve to retain soils as part of your foundation, but it is substantially similar to Standard Twenty, which applies to foundations, and load bearing walls. Neither soils nor engineered retaining walls shall cause your home to become structurally unsafe. In plain English, to be "structurally unsafe" would be when occupancy in or around the building can cause injury or death to people as determined by the responsible local building official. It should be noted that this standard is not violated when the problem results from an unforeseen act of nature including a weather condition, earthquake or manmade event which is in excess of the design criteria established for your home at the time of its original construction. For example, damage caused by a major earthquake, an area-wide landslide or a flood is not a violation of this standard. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
