We started with foundation.
Being 14 F degrees, days of the cold weather continued, but having less wind, it felt warmer than it actually is.
As a crane engineer, Mr. Jang se gang did a great job today.

First, dig 15m x 10m wide, 30cm deep of ground soil, and evenly spread gravels (special gravel called paswaeseok) 20 cm deep, and evenly laid one ton of lime plaster on it, and then again gravels 20cm, lime plaster 1 ton, and then ground soil 10cm.


The foundation is raised 30cm above ground level.

And the 12 columns of base rocks go in places temporarily.
Everything finished around 5:50 pm.

* These days most of the Hanok foundations are made of cement, but as shown in the picture, no cement nor any chemical material was not used in this Hanok.

1. In fact, the actual area of ​​the building to be built on is 10m x 5.46m. Those numbers above includes base rocks.

2. Paswaeseok(a kind of gravel) Weight: 50 tons

3. Lime plaster manufacturer: LG CHEM.

4. The height of the base: 60cm

5. Digged up dirt for the foundation will be recycled and used on insulation in the ceiling in the future.

6. If you build foundation as described above, lime plaster will make the ground firm to prevent earthquakes and subsidence of the ground, and also prevent damages by animals, plants, roots go through under the house.
