So you did or didn't go with the oversized piles in the end? Also I'm guessing 50sf is a few orders of magnitude off?

We went with the as designed piles with the big belled ends. Other that the hiccup with the broken auger they managed to do all of them to spec.

OK so you're going with the smaller bell piles which are already 2.5x oversized, not the really big straight piles?

How does it compare with a beam and block floor? Like a prefab suspended concrete floor rather than a poured slab.

Usually we stick to whole numbers though, right?

In the UK it’s an absolute minefield when buying wood and it’s all 38x179 or whatever. And yeah I still forget the 1220x2440 sheet dimensions all the time. At that scale 4x8 is so much easier to reckon with.

Plumbing is even worse because they aggressively round numbers up or down to make them look sane without changing from the old imperial.
