Hybrid Foundation Pillars: 6 Mind-blowing Benefits of Low-Cost Waterproof Construction
Abstract Hybrid Foundation Pillars – This paper proposes a novel hybrid construction component: extruded PVC hollow shells used as permanent outer forms filled with cement to create waterproof, load-bearing pillars or foundation elements. This design offers improved water resistance, reduced labor in formwork, and potential for modular, scalable production. The concept is especially suited for…
