  1. FOUNDATIONS

  2. Components Footings Trench Formed Keyway Stepped Fireplace

  3. FoundationConcrete support forfloor framing & rest of the house

  4. ACCURACY & QUALITY KEY!*Soil quality effects type of foundation used Foundation: Carry Loads Distribute weight to soil evenly Footing spreads the weight Resists forces wind/earth (by anchoring down walls / eaves) Material: Concrete (works in compression) and Steel rebar (works in tension to resist min. earth movement)

  5. Compression is a pushing force Tension is a pulling force

  6. Requirements for footings • Rest on Undisturbed soil • Lie below the frost line (in colder climates) • Washington Country 12” • Multnomah County 18” • Check your local code • Slab on grade used in warmer climates • Footing width depends on soil type and # of stories

  7. Soil Bearing Capacity

  8. Footing Widths • Examples: • Soil bearing capacity 1000 psf +1 story= 18” Footing • Soil bearing capacity 3000 psf +1 story= 12” • Soil bearing capacity 1000 psf +3 story= 27” • Soil bearing capacity 3000 psf +3 story= 12”

  9. Footing Widths

  10. More Footing Requirements • Horizontal Rebar per local code • Vertical Rebar per local code • Must project at least 2” beyond wall • A means of connection to wall • Keyway • Rebar

  11. KEYWAY

  12. Types of Footings

  13. STEP FOOTINGS

  14. Slabs • Block Outs and penetrations designated by an X • Control Joints - control cracks (every 20’) • Expansion joint where vertical wall and slab meet allows for movement due to expansion and contraction.

  15. Reinforcing Bar (Rebar) • Measured in 8ths • Example: #4 Rebar = 4/8 or ½” diameter #3 rebar = 3/8” diameter

  16. 3 Types of Residential Foundations • Crawl space • Basement (full or partial) • Slab on Grade Alternative FND. Pole / Pilings (when soil not good)

  17. Crawl Space 18” minimum height from ground to bottom of floor joist

  22. Abbreviations & Terms WWM = welded wire mesh WWF = welded wire fabric
