Planning Your Ranch Home
When developing a
foundation plan, frost
lines for the region you
plan to build for must be
considered. If the
foundation does not
extend below the frost
line, the structure can
move with the freezing
and thawing of the
ground. The frost line in
our region is typically
20-25. Foundations
should extend 3 below
grade to be safe. Soil
structure and loads
must also be
considered when
selecting a foundation.
