Ever wondered why bored piers appear in some building specifications?
Bored piers are deep foundation elements that can be used where additional foundation support is required.
The number needed depends on the site, soil conditions, engineering and the home's design.
That's an important detail when comparing builders because foundation requirements aren't necessarily the same from one block to another.
The takeaway is simple:
Ask what your builder has allowed for when the site requires additional foundation support.
