Footings on a Concrete Slab For a Small House 🚧💪 #smallhouse
Welcome back to the next phase of building my house! 🏡
In today’s video, I’m tackling the foundation footings over the concrete slab, and there’s a lot to cover. From installing a water barrier under the footings to setting up the formwork and placing the steel rebar, I’ll show you my process step-by-step.
I’ve learned quite a bit along the way, and I’m excited to share some tips that might save you time on your own build, especially if you’re thinking about moisture control or ensuring proper drainage.
🌧️ Without the right setup, your footings could end up sitting in water!
This entire project is a dream come true for me, as I’m building this wooden frame house to be self-sufficient and debt-free. Every step is about ensuring the structure is solid, practical, and ready for the future.
🔨 Whether you’re curious about the construction process or looking for hands-on building advice, I hope this video helps you in some way!
