The foundation of a house is a somewhat
invisible and sometimes ignored component
of the building. It is increasingly evident,
however, that attention to good foundation
design and construction has significant
benefits to the homeowner and the builder,
and can avoid some serious future problems.
Good foundation design and construction
practice means not only insulating to save
energy, but also providing effective
structural design as well as moisture, termite,
and radon control techniques where
appropriate.
The purpose of this handbook is to
provide information that will enable
designers, builders, and homeowners to
understand foundation design problems and
solutions. This chapter provides the general
background and introduction to foundation
design issues. Section 1.1 explains the
practical and economic advantages of good
foundation design.
