A poured solid concrete basement weighs about 50 lbs more
per cubic foot' Far denser What's more, poured solid concrete
walls are monolithic there are no joints l
This is why laboratory tests show poured, solid concrete base
ments have many times the flexural and compressive strength to
withstand the side and down pressures caused by earth, wind,
water and building loads and the material density to resist water
penetration
Best of all, thanks to modern and efficient construction tech
