Okay, so I am guessing that they would then pack the gravel too? So to like keep the building from settling and cracking? So does anybody know how deep down these trenches have to be? Is it to,like then clay field or below it or something?

> Walls and roofs seem to be the easy part. But what about foundations? I don't know how heavy papercrete is but I am betting a lot of it would weigh something, see? And so you don't want the ground to shift and crack your hard work, or worse, break it. So Does anybody have some stories on foundations? Does a person dig a trench and fill it with papercrete? Does a person dig a a square, then a couple channels across and then just pour papercrete on top of it all? What?
