Why it matters

The depth comes from the soil report and the structural drawing. Pits must be marked accurately from the plan, kept dry and checked before any concrete goes in.

How Elamentt handles it

Our engineer marks out the plot from the drawing and checks the pit depths before the foundation is cast.

Next step

See it on your
own plot.

Our studio turns your plot size into a plan, a 3D model built stage by stage, and a list of the cement, steel, bricks and sand it needs. Or ask an engineer.
