I have been looking for a while and have only found two options recommended for a foundation for cob. First dry stack stone second dry stack urbanite.
What other options have people found?
Would a poured concrete foundation work?
How about a block foundation?
Is there anything extra that needs to be done if not doing a dry stack foundation?
I'm hoping to build a 400-500 sqft cob house this year the North and West walls will be straw bail. I have not finished reading
The Hand-Sculpted House but I'm working on it.
The reason that I want to use other materials is because they will need to be trucked in and I do not have a truck currently so as few deliveries as possible would be great. Extra block would be used to build a cistern or two that would be used to hold rain water and as part of the heating/cooling system low temp hydronic.
