Here is an interesting topic. Where can water be infiltrated into the building load bearing moisture sensitive soils?
My thought is that the load extends at a 1:1 (+ or - with soil type) from the bottom of the footing, so not a great idea to introduce water within this area, until you get to a certain depth, as a function of some % load. And even then, still risky.
Interested if anyone else has some ideas when the site does not have much room for a required infiltration system?
