Welcome back to Build Show Build, where Jake and Steve stand amidst the concrete piers that will make up the house's foundation. Jake will dive into the details, but Steve will provide the "why" behind the decisions. Remember: only about 30% of the house sits in the basement while the other 70% flies out over the piers. This will play a role in many of the decisions made. Learn why this house won't have water management problems. It's always good to use design in your favor to solve for building science. Steve takes us back to the prints with "Big Red" to dive into the details.
