Excerpt from A House-Framing System for Low-Cost ConstructionA house was built in the fall of 1964 b the method described in this report (fig. Pace in the house can be arranged in many ways, the floor plan of the prototype is shown in figure 2.The idea of using poles for both the foundation and the primary frame of a structure is not new. Some of the first structures built were of this type. The pole construction techniques have been neglected mainly because of the short life of wood set in damp soil.
