FAQ
Does the calculator account for foundation depth separately from the wall above ground?
Yes, compound wall foundation is calculated as its own below-ground element with its own concrete and excavation quantity, since foundation depth depends on soil condition and wall height rather than simply mirroring the above-ground wall dimensions. Skipping an adequate foundation to save cost is a common cause of compound wall cracking or leaning over time.
