Curious to as if anyone here has constructed a house on piling in Colorado or if anyone could tell me what would be required. I am wondering what methods you use, or would use where the piling meets the ground. I guess I am assuming a wood piling here.
Where I am and work, we, on the beach, either dig or jet with water the holes at least half the piling length into the sand.
I have found that in most places of Colorado, Sonotubes are used to make a pad for a post to rest on for maybe a deck or a stair. What I have not found is an entire house constructed upon these. I have an interest in this type of construction to do away with a typical foundation or slab. Also, the underside could be used as storage/covered parking.
Any reply and info appreciated.
