Foundation work is not the glamorous side of home building. It is hard, dirty
work. But it's also the work upon which all other work rests, and so a good
foundation is critical to every home. No source of knowledge on foundations and
concrete work is better respected or more widely followed than that provided by
the authors of Fine Homebuilding magazine.
This latest edition from the editors of Fine Homebuilding is the
biggest and most authoritative volume yet on the subject. At 266 pages with more
than 400 illustrative on-the-job photographs and drawings, Foundations and
Concrete Work distills centuries of hands-on builder-tested methods and
techniques as the finest builders in the country pass on the hard-won trade
secrets for better construction.
From a thorough survey of concrete basics through forming and pouring
foundations to keeping a basement dry, Foundations and Concrete Work will
serve as the definitive guide to the subject.
Written by builders from all over the country, these articles are quite
literally advice from the trenches.
Since 1981 Fine Homebuilding has been providing information and
inspiration to everyone who cares about quality home improvement and
construction. The magazine, which has a circulation of more than 302,000, is the
best source of home improvement information and helps readers build projects
better, faster, and more efficiently.
