Brick column can be an alternative to concrete column for building a house?

Hypothetically, if this column was hooked to a concrete foundation with rebar, is it possible for the column to be up to thirty feet high?

@WoodandBricks
@WoodandBricks 7 ай бұрын
Depth really only needs to be below the frost line. I’m not sure what you would need for the gate. I would check with the manufacturer. But if you fill it solid and the footer was below frost I’d guess it would hold it.
