What drying runs into in Franklin Park
Serving Franklin Park and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
61.9 percent of Franklin Park's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1986, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1986 with about six in ten houses older, the main beam carrying the floor bears into a pocket formed in the top of the foundation wall at each end, and that recess is a hole in the masonry with timber or steel sitting in it.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 38.32 inches, 3.64 of them in July, against a warm season that peaks at 74.5 degrees in July; both figures recorded at EMSWORTH L/D OHIO RVR, 6.1 miles away. July is the wettest month at under four inches of a thirty-eight inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the wet season is warm and the cold season dry; a pocket at the top of a foundation wall is close to grade, and what reaches it in July stays in a closed recess.
How water losses tend to end in Franklin Park
- A recess formed in the top of the wall, so there is a pocket in the masonry that collects rather than sheds
- The end of a structural member sitting in it, so what is wet is the bearing point of the floor
- A recess closed on three sides and covered by the beam, so nothing about it can be seen
