The civil engineer say that the HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY (K)=7.93E-04 (acording Percolation Test Report)
How I know the FRENCH DRAIN dimentions required?

Since you are dealing with such a small amount you may be able to use a frech drain too. With a french drain you can locate a perforated drain pipe in a 3'W 3'H X'L trench backfilled with gravel wrapped in filter fabric. Size the bottom of the trench area (3'xL) so that 0.714ft3/hr drains at the rate of the K value (7.93E-04 Ft/s? ft/hr?).
