HI to all; I live on the island of Roatan off the Honduras coast,when we
build a home off the ground say 15 feet we use 10" round wood posts  with
2" by 12" wood frame work connecting the top of all the posts to build a
deck  to build the house on.or we build a 12" by 12" wood frame box 20 feet
high 5 feet of it in the ground and 15 feet above ground  and put in a
square rebar frame inside of it and then mix  by hand and pour cement  into
the wood frame and then strip off the wood. "MY ??? IS CAN I BUILD A
FERROCEMENT FRAME WORK OFF THE GROUND AND COVER IT AND WOULD THIS HAVE A
GOOD VERTICAL LOAD OR NOT TO HOLD UP A HOME??? THANKS STEVE
