PEMB Foundation Uplift
PEMB Foundation Uplift
(OP)
Can you use the dead load of the soil above a formed spread footing in a PEMB foundation to resist uplift? Typically the foundations I have worked on have been on very poor soil with a resulting large footing required. In this instance, I have very good soil, thus the dead load of the "required" footing for soil bearing is not sufficient to resist the uplift forces imposed.
