Otherwise eventually it would slide over time...Is it possible to build a house foundation in a rock?
What has been stated by the others is basically correct, except for the builder of 鈥淗ouse on the Rock.
Alex Jordan, Jr. wanted to teach Frank Lloyd Wright a thing or two about architecture. The lesson started years ago.
Jordan's dad, a budding architect, had been dismissed at Wright's Taliesin home, near Spring Green, with the declaration, ';I wouldn't hire you to design a cheese crate or a chicken coop.'; Soon after, the senior Jordan chose a pinnacle rock south of Taliesin to build a parody of Wright's fancy-pants architecture, a strange ';Japanese house.'; The ceilings were dangerously low (padded now to accommodate tourists) and the structure seemed to cling precariously to the odd contours of the rock.Is it possible to build a house foundation in a rock?
As the previous respondent stated, yes depending... A good example of that form of architecture is in Wisconsin. I believe it was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Called ';The House on the Rock';. Neat place and it is open to the public.
