Assess Existing Drainage Issue

all right so this particular project here is it's a big giant window well um the old one that was in we took it out and it uh the base the base was not buried with dirt around it it just had this landscape rock down here that was uh towing it in so that you can see that the base boat in everything boat in and then upon excavating deeper i i put a spike in the ground and that thing just sunk so it's got riprap in the soils this is just typical like city backfill in saint paul where you get the the limestone that's back filled with garbage but um we're going to do a thickened base i talked to the engineer about it and he felt like a foot of rock should bridge this up just fine in here um it's gonna be beefier than the other one that other one was just sitting on some class five and not much of it so it was just uh yeah um that's what we got to do so i'm hoping this side over here isn't as wet as that side or nasty and we got a good base and we don't have to do
