  1. Also, I’m wondering if there are any best practices for anchoring concrete foundations on sloped terrain to prevent shifting over time. Would deeper footings or retaining walls be necessary in certain cases? Would love to hear thoughts on this!
  2. Hi everyone, I’m working on a project that involves designing a concrete foundation for a sloped lot, and I’m running into challenges with getting the elevations and footings right. I want to ensure the design is both structurally sound and accurately modeled in Chief Architect. Has anyone here worked on a similar project? What’s the best approach for designing stepped footings and ensuring proper load distribution on uneven terrain? Also, do you rely solely on Chief Architect’s terrain tools, or do you use external calculations before modeling? Thanks!
