Foundations

1.

The key to stability, functionality and endurance is a good foundation for your summer house. Only

ensure a perfect fit for the timbers, the door and

the window while guaranteeing stability.

In the general drawing you will find the dimensions of your cabin to allow you to

prepare your footings - the 7 pedestal beams for the cabin (3.00 m in length) are laid

See

absolutely level, strong footings (for the veranda as well)

Flagstones or paving bricks on top of a (frost-free) bed of gravel are suitable, but frost-resisting
concrete (either over the whole area or in the form of piers) is also ideal as a base for the floor-joists (and
is also good for ventilation).
