I'm torn. On one hand, I'm fine with removing poor sources as there is so much garbage on the internet it's good to keep it from invading all spaces. On the other hand, there's some good discussion here...but it could be mainly about how garbage the article is...
Overall, there have been very few reports for poor sources/spam/fake articles. So report it and we'll start removing it. This means we should probably compile a "deny list" for inappropriate sources.
Phys.org again printing anything that's sent their way...I get tired of the endless drivel from phys.org
Reports inbox is such an awesome feature!!! Been wait for that to arrive!
Ya'll are fricken rockstars! Rockstars!! Seriously!!!
You didn't link a map or an article, FYI. It's just a single photo of the perseverance backshell.
The house is not occupied and there is access to the crawlspace.
My main concern is that I'm not sure a concrete foundation can be built underneath the house. Since it has the addition which a concrete foundation, the house cannot be lifted. The weight bearing concrete would have to be built upto the level of the house...which I'm not sure is possible.
A basement would be amazing.
? I didn't know you could have a blank post...
Well...except to meet code for wood foundation you must use treated wood (usually treated with some kind of copper arsenic) which is not great for the environment (both the production and usage).
I'm sure I need to add way more info...just not sure what's relevant.
Crawlspace. There are piers....but they appear to be wood. Wood piers in the ground, connect to wood posts/beams above ground. As expected the wood has started to rot and the whole wood foundation needs to be replaced.
This is in the PNW and earthquakes are possible, thus my preference for a concrete foundation(rather not get into the debate about how house would be effected from earthquake).
This is not a foundation repair situation...this is a foundation replacement situation.
What else can I tell you?
The red is fully concrete. That part of the house was an addition.
The black part is entirely a wood foundation. It's the stupidest thing.
Edit: just realized what you were commenting. The image is a top down of the house perimeter.
Yes! Apparently you can still get them installed in the US They still can meet code! Crazy!
What NUC has a 3.5" bay?
I very much dislike how lemmy overwrites the URL after you include an image....
