Every house begins with a foundation, but you’ll need to determine what kind. This DVD explains the three types of foundations—basement foundation, crawl space foundation, and slab-on-grade—and uses a full basement foundation in a seasonal climate to illustrate basic techniques and concerns, including the use of footings, building forms, load-bearing values of the soil, and methods for pouring and curing concrete. A viewable/printable instructor’s guide is available online. Correlates to the Competencies and Objectives of the National Center for Construction Education & Research. A Shopware Production. Has Spanish narration with English subtitles and English narration with Spanish subtitles. (14 minutes)
