Conservatory Foundations

Deep Strip -  A type of foundation where a deep narrow strip footing is filled shallowly with concrete.

Trench Fill - A type of foundation where a strip footing is filled to the top with concrete, to make it easy for the bricklayer to build the dwarf wall.

Raft - Normally used on properties where the ground conditions are poor – the raft floats on the earth.

Plied Piled - Used again in poor ground conditions, this time a piling rig drills a deep hole which is filled with concrete or the rig drives a precast concrete pile or a steel pile. These piles are then capped off with a ring beam onto which the conservatory foundations are built.
