Question:
How is the depth of the crushed stone footing determined?
Answer:
The depth of the crushed stone footing is determined by considering the allowable soil bearing capacity on the building site and cross-referencing that with the combined footing load per lineal foot, using a table in the SWA Builder Guideline Booklet (MAN 42-9000). A copy of the BGB is available from our website.
