Different Types of Home Foundations

Types of Foundation Layers

Every home has one thing common: They all rely on a secure foundation to support the weight of the structure all of its contents. There are common types of foundation layers used to provide adequate support, depending on the home’s location and climate.

Slab foundations consist of a single layer of reinforced concrete which rests directly on the ground. In locations where the ground regularly freezes, stem-wall foundations are used to support the walls in order to minimize distortion.
