Tes, in some parts of the world And houses that are very old were built with a pier and beam foundations instead of slabs. With pier and beam there are beams that run the length or width of the home that the interior floor joists are all run across. This is what allows them to pick up the whole structure or sometimes they even cut them in half.

I believe pier and beam is a more structurally sound way to build, especially with the clay soils of Texas. I have 96 piers going down 30’ to bedrock under my house.

This sounds amazing and super sound. Is this the normal way to build where you live? I don't know much about building but that's just impressive to me. I wonder if that would work in Louisiana but I don't know how far down you'd have to go to hit bedrock here (this is way out of my lane but my curiosity is peaked!) Did you all have your home built? I'm just imagining it doesn't get more structurally sound than that.

Sprouting horn too! The whole of Cape Perpetua is pretty incredible. If you ever go to Oregon, it is a neat spot. Yachats is an itty bitty town with not a lot happening, but the beaches are incredible and the rock formations are a sight to behold.

Keeping in mind for future reference.
