Soil tests best way to determine if piers are needed Q. We are considering adding on to our lake house in the next year or two. About three doors down from our cottage they built a new house and they drilled in steel piers. It took them several days and seemed that they put in a bunch of them. When we talked to a contractor friend from our church about adding on he didn’t JEFF DEAHL think we need any. What is the best way to find out if piers are needed or not? — Tom on Lake Gage A. The best way is to have a soil test done by an approved soil scientist. They will do a test boring or several to

•

determine what the characteristics of the soil are that you want to build on. Many factors need to be taken into consideration: The makeup of the soil, is it sand, gravel, clay or a combination of them? Consider also things like the silt content and decayable elements of the soil. Is it a building lot that was filled in either over time by run off or by a previous owner or developer moving in dirt to fill in the lot? All these things go into the makeup of the soil and contribute to its weight bearing capacity. Water is also a factor in its ability to bear weight but also its ability to move as conditions change over the course of the seasons or year. The last thing you want is to put a bunch of money into an addition to have it move and cause cracking or out

of level floors. Foundation failure is expensive to fix so to put in piers to start with is much less costly. There are technical code requirements that the building departments follow regarding soil weight capacity. There are tables that are used depending on the type of structure you are building like number of stories, design, snow load of the roof and walls and the type and size of the foundation. If you are given the PSI capacity of the soil, you can now design a foundation that will adequately support the addition. JEFF DEAHL is past president of the Builders Association of Northeast Indiana. Questions for the Square Corners column may be submitted at ba-ni.com or email info@ba-ni.com.

Recreation BOATING & FISHING

If you like boating, Steuben County is for you! With more than 101 lakes and three navigable creeks and rivers, there are plenty of water activities for everyone. People wanting to bring their speedboats to Steuben County will find opportunities to fire up their engines on a handful of lakes where high speed boating is allowed by Indiana law. Those lakes include Clear Lake, Hamilton Lake, Lake James, Snow Lake, Jimmerson Lake, Lake Gage, Crooked Lake, Lake Pleasant, Big Turkey Lake and Lake George (be advised that on Lake George, boat operation at speeds greater than 10 mph is not allowed between the hours of 6:30 p.m. and 10 a.m.). These lakes either have public access sites where people may launch boats for free or privately-owned ramps where boat launching is available for a fee. On Fox Lake, which has a public access site, skiing is allowed between 1 and 4 p.m. At a number of points, people can drop canoes or row boats in Fish Creek, Pigeon Creek and Fawn River in Steuben County. In the heat of the summer, these bodies of water meander their way to where they feed into larger rivers. Canoe rentals are available on Pigeon Creek from Pigeon River Canoe-n-Camp on C.R. 325 West near Golden Lake. Here are statistics on just a few of Steuben

County’s 101 lakes. • Ball Lake: Eight miles south of Angola on Old SR 27, 2.5 miles east on CR 800 S, 1.5 miles north on CR 175 E. 87 Acres.

In 2018, Steuben County plans to finish the trail to Pokagon State Park. This will inevitably create more trail use, giving people starting at either end, a destination. The City of Angola is excited to be partnering with the County to help finish this portion of the trail. The Parks will continue to address maintenance concerns on the trail and work on safely connecting neighborhoods to our trail system in 2018. Vistula Park, located on S.R. 120 West just minutes from I-69 and the toll road, has a variety of playground equipment, a pool, volleyball areas, baseball fields, basketball courts, picnic areas, paved walking trails and more.

Sleeping in a tent: a lifelong love affair Tents offer refuge, communal haven, ticket to exotic locales BY MOLLY SPRAYREGEN Associated Press

I remember when I was very young, curling up beside my siblings on family camping trips, falling asleep to the sound of our crackling campfire mingling with our dad’s voice telling us stories. At summer camp, I would lie in my tent with my best friends, telling jokes, playing games, and huddling together in the middle when it rained AP and water seeped through the sides.

But this summer there’s a range of decor and serveware with the more sophisticated look and feel of indoorquality goods — part of a growing trend toward blurring indoor/outdoor decor lines. “Outdoor spaces should really be thought of as an extension of your living room, and that definitely applies to entertaining,” says Kara Smith of SFA Design, a bicoastal luxury design firm. “The furnishings should be as approachable as the interior, so that guests feel comfortable.” A look at some of what designers AP and retailers are offering: Article’s Lisse teak dining table is show.
