Piled / Suspended Foundation

Piled / Suspended Foundation — Illustrative diagram

Piled / Suspended Foundation is a building-planning choice included in the Price Your Build estimator. It can affect excavation, concrete, reinforcing and engineering requirements.

What this option means

Routes plans to complex micro-piled engineering mobilization assemblies.

Why it affects the estimate

The estimator uses this selection to apply an appropriate allowance. Actual requirements depend on the final design, site conditions, supplier selection and contractor scope.

Before proceeding

  • The final foundation type must be confirmed for the site conditions by the appointed design professionals.
  • Compare the final specification and inclusions against quotations before appointing a contractor.
