Previous Q & A
Q:Does this plan come with a concrete block foundation? if so, what will the height of the finished structure be?
A:Thank you for your inquiry. This plan is available on crawl, slab and basement foundation.
The maximum ridge height for this plan is 15 ft.
Q:I'm looking a t plan 95980 was wondering if it came with a cement pier foundation. Also I'd love to put solar panels on the roof.. Is that something I have to do in the planning process, or can that wait. My goal is to be off the grid.
A:This plan comes with three types of foundations and the crawl space foundation uses concrete piers. So you should be good there. Regarding the solar panels, all you would need to do is ask the solar panel manufacturer what the additional weight
(dead load ) in pounds per square feet that the panels would add to the roof. He would then need to provide that information to the truss manufacture prior to fabrication of the trusses. The other components of the house should not be effected.
