This house is being built on a series of concrete piers since it's located in a FEMA flood zone, just feet away from the Atlantic Ocean. This requires the builders to have a minimum elevation of 19 feet for first-floor framing. That's why you'll see a 16 inch floor system bringing the finished system to 24-25 feet when it's all said and done. Walk through some of the details and find out more about what's being used to anchor these concrete piers.
