Switching to QPOD’s CodeMark™ Certified Continuous System offers significant savings on foundation costs. It reduces the need for steel and concrete, provided your site has good ground conditions. Plus, it’s not tied to any specific concrete supplier, allowing you to use any certified concrete of your choice.
By eliminating the ribs of a traditional Raft configuration, the CodeMark™ Continuous System cuts material costs, with the average 220sqm slab saving up to $3,000. Use our calculator below to estimate your potential savings with QPOD’s CodeMark™ Certified Continuous System.
