What happens to a Sollars Home™ when the concrete cracks? Will it leak?
All concrete will eventually crack, and the concrete that is used in a Sollars Home™ is no exception, and this has the possibility of creating a condition where some amount of water could penetrate thru the concrete shell. We use a combination of rebar and wire mesh to reinforce the concrete, which limits the widths of all cracks to no more than 1/16” wide. Inside, the concrete on both sides of the crack is irregular, so only a very small amount of water can pass thru the crack, even on a horizontal surface. But, a Sollars Home™ has a standard interior drainage system that shunts any water that leaks into the house to the sewer, thus protecting the wood frame interior from being exposed to any water that would ever find its way in.
