Continuous footer v. Piers

Text of the message: |
Hi all, I'm designing a shed (16'x24') for a wooded, slightly sloped backyard. Restrictive covenants call for a "masonry foundation" for sheds. I had originally intended to pour a continuous slab/stem wall for the foundation, but I'm realizing I would have to remove a lot of trees to do it (i.e. the site and a good 10 feet all the way around it to get rid of the tree roots). I was thinking of doing a cantilevered foundation using sonotube piers and beams instead (no more than 10-12" overhang all the way around). I'm thinking this would save on concrete and I wouldn't have to remove as many trees. I could then skirt the foundation with some type of non-structural panel, landscape bricks, etc. to give the appearance of a masonry foundation (I'm pretty sure the neighborhood would be OK with this as there is already an existing shed on plain sonobube piers). |
