Many have heard about the foundation, the principle of its styling is not particularly complicated, but the owners of private houses are more interested in the features of a qualitative foundation. The foundation is called the underground part of the building, which will perceive the main weight of the building, transferring it below. The basis in this case is strong soil layers.
Of the foundations, it is especially worth highlighting the foundations of the strip type. Such foundations are a strip of reinforced concrete located around the perimeter of the building, maintaining an equal shape of the cross section. According to technology, the strip foundation is more simple than foundations in the form of a plate, or pile -type foundations. However, the consumption of the material for tape foundations is higher than for pile foundations.
The foundations of both a strip type and pile -type, or a monolithic foundation is difficult to perform with your own hand, without calling specialists.
It should be noted that the foundation is the basis of the building. In the event that the foundation is not laid correctly, or incorrectly moisture insulated, there may be many problems. For example, problems with the walls may arise, as a result of improper styling, the foundation may occur cracking, or even the destruction of the walls. Experts will ensure the correct laying of the foundation, and the possibility of such problems will be minimized. It is better to build a building on a solid foundation than to repair, eliminating damage caused by moisture, or mechanical destruction arising in incorrectly laid material.
