I guess for this project, you are the architect, builder and engineer ? So who indeendently checks the integrity of the structure ?
How many board is the foundation, is it 6 or 7 ?
With the sandy nature of the soil, how can one reduce the settlement of the building and what has been done to strengthen the foundation on such a shaky/loose terrain ?

Thanks.

@babaeko1, First thing First, the Number of boards for the foundation is 5. which makes it a 1.5m High Foundation. Plus the German floor is 1.6m. Now, before we ever commenced Filling on this soil, we did a soil test which indicated that the soil property contained less than 0.3m high clay soil on the top layer, and sharp sand beneath. which means the bad soil is very minimal and not signification to affecting our foundation. but we had to fill up due to the fact that it was water logged on top of our soil, thus enabling us to work. Now, our total high of filling used was just 0.9m to 1m high. which means even if the building had to magically dig through the filling, we still have about 0.3m to 0.4m above the ground. but the building can't dig through because we had specifically chosen the sand to be white beach sand to be filled to the level of the water. Now note something about the beach filling sand that makes it different from the red filling, is that because of its more stone sandy and less dusty components, it settles into water in less than 48hrs, the loosed part you saw in pics are the extra filling that are above water level. underneath those loosed once are very strong and well compacted white sand.

Furthermore, if you notice the foot of our foundation was wider than the remaining part, this is to further reduce the settling levels. as a result, we have made a foundation hight of 1.6m height to fit into a 1.2m floor requirement (giving us an extra 0.4m), and has put it onto a floor sand filled with sharp sand on water and wider foot foundation. All this factors individually is ok for our building, talk less of having them all together.

Feel free to further more questions
