After all, you need to approach the construction correctly, and if you lay out a mistake from the very beginning of construction, do not count on a successful result. First of all, do not save on building materials. This is the first rule of any builder. The second rule can be considered the correct design of the foundation for a private house, otherwise, with incorrect calculations, you will encounter problems such as distortions of the foundation, deformation, excess of materials, cracks in the supporting walls.

As a rule, the foundations are divided into several types:
– ribbon;
– columnar;
– slab;
– pile.
What is the foundation to lay under your house is your business, but if you want to build a concrete foundation, do not forget about such a broadcast as formwork, which is shields installed strictly in size of the foundation. These shields must be reliably fixed and connected.
And a few words about each form of the types of foundation.
The strip foundation is made in the form of ribbons that are deep into the ground. They have the whole load from the supporting structures of the future house. The strip foundation is characteristic of one -story houses with and without basements. There are two types of strip foundations: monolithic and prefabricated. As you already understood, their modification occurred due to the type of execution. They are also divided by the type of material: reinforced concrete, bottle, brick.
The columnar foundation is presented in the form of a column of a plowed in a well with concrete. On top, such columns are connected by reinforced concrete beams. Such foundations are characteristic of houses designed for 2 floors.
The slab foundation is a reinforced reinforced concrete slab laid on the ground. The slab type of foundation allows you to distribute all the loads from the structures of the house evenly. Such a foundation is designed for 2-3-story buildings.
