Foundation types typically offered: (each type may or may not be
available for a given design)
· Slab:
Slab is a type of foundation consisting of a structural concrete slab poured
directly on the grade. No accessible space exists in slab construction. Slab
foundations are popular in areas (i.e. the Southern United States) where there
is a relatively high water table (i.e. the "water table" refers to
the depth in the soil at which you find water). Traditionally, the slab
foundation is the least expensive foundation type when building on a relatively
flat lot.
· Crawlspace:
Crawlspace is a type of foundation which includes an accessible space with
limited headroom, typically between the soil and the bottom of the first floor
of a home. Crawlspace construction is predominant in areas where there is heavy
clay content in the soil, where the home owner needs additional under-home
storage space, or the homeowner needs access to pipes, wiring, etc. under the
floor of the home.
· Basement:
Basement is a type of foundation which includes an accessible space between
the soil and the bottom of the first floor of a home. It usually has more
headroom than a Crawlspace. Basement foundation construction is predominant in
cold climates where the foundation needs to be situated below the frost level.
