    It’s actually a very well written and comprehensive book ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 . I wanted to pair this with an updated book on local codes to start planning a post-retirement dream shop. I think I have just about everything I need between the two. The extra plans available for purchase towards the end are priced almost as much as full home plans, not little sheds however.

I am wondering is there any sort of anchor used to keep the floating community stay at a given location, because I don't understand how can a concrete foundation on itself help keep everything together. When you say watch that video are you referring to the video of this post? I don't see where it mentions this mechanism.

      @sportshootinghonduras8338 4 роки тому +3

      It is recommended that the house is located in a place with calm waters, 2nd ; houses are supported by two piles inserted in the seabed, diagonally. fixing the house and there is no horizontal movement, the only movement is if the water level rises or falls, the house follows. The difficult thing is the calculation and design of the floating concrete foundation that allows you to add loads, this process does not use stairofoam.

    as much as i love those homes , floating homes are a real issue in urban areas where they block the view of the houses that used to be frontline to the water and the value of those houses that are now in second row go down significantly . just imagine you bought a house that has an unobstructed view of the water which is something that comes with a premium prize only to have someone put a floating house in front of it. the folks in holland already have that problem and its infuriating
