I want to build the next Grover Haus. I'm only sort of joking.

    These are basically the questions I'm asking myself, and I don't know where to start gaining this information - hence the thread

        I think it's unlikely that I'll ever build a house from beginning to end, but I absolutely would like to have the knowledge to do so, even if I only apply that to smaller things, at the least. If I had the knowledge, maybe I could like, add another level to my existing house, or something? Either way, the beginning is to have the knowledge.

      look at local construction regulations/standards. that should tell you a lot. what to make foundations out of, where to put reinforcement, etc.
