Agricultural Experiment Station; Agriculture -- New York (State). Building Poultry Houses. 207 Fig. 41 shows six methods of constructing foundations and floors. Fig. 41-A shows the loose-stone filled trench for drainage, wide concrete top wall with cement floor laid before sills are placed. This is a tight and substantial construction and very desirable. Fig. 41-B is the same as A except that the outside wall is beveled. To do this the wall must be built wider than the framework of the house. This is not desirable. Fig. 41-C shows how a light concrete cap can be placed on a large, loose- stone foundation. The sill is imbedded in the concrete by building the floor level with the top. Fig. 41-D shows the same type of construction as C except that tarred paper is laid between the loose-stone drainage and concrete to prevent moisture from passing upward. The sill is on rorr/7. Concrete.
