From the video, it looks/sounds as if the other half of the house hasn’t yet had the foundation walls poured. Is that correct? Seems strange to not do them all at once. Or are they just at a significantly lower height and we can’t see them from this camera angle?
Curious why the level of the center footings are flush with the rock now, instead of having them higher to be level with when the insulation is installed? Or if it matters?
Great job, thank you for sharing your insight and project examples.

Looks like a hill getting piers
We’ve just experienced the genesis of the “Pretty Good House” genre of home design by SB-A! Long may it live!
Why tall concrete walls and not cripple walls on the perimeter? Are you planning on backfilling a lot to bring the ground level up on the exterior.
I would guess to create a consistent finish on the outside of the foundation and have the same stronger floor installation all the way around.
Interested in what mechanicals would need to be run between the wings. I would suspect smaller diameter items since HVAC probably zones nicely.
Good content Steve, liked#7 N Subscribed!!!

Harder to cut insulation around the pier and it creates a thermal bridge. This way its continuous insulation.
