Raised SIP Foundation

[Fly100]

Hello all,

 

An piece of land has come our way but to satisfy the Local Planning requirement we would need to build out the ground by 700mm min. I’ve recently completed a traditional build doing the same where we built a 900 mm high ring of engineering bricks on the external leaf and blocks on the internal with a block and beam floor. Is this kind of construction suitable for a SIP construction ? 

 

Im yet to contact and manufacturers / Architect as we have a few discussions to have 1st , but have read cold bridging needs considering. My intention is to under floor heat the house with 200mm of Kingspan under a screed.

 

Thanks,

Fly
