6 meter ferrocement earthbag foundation
Hello Allison,
I would translate the full title as:
"Design, construction and testing of 6 meter ferrocement earthbag foundation"
From what it says in this Architecture site ( http://www.todoarquitectura.com/v2/foros/topic.asp?Topic_ID=... ) I gather that "losa cajón" is an "earthbag foundation" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shallow_foundations )
I hope this matches with rest of the contents in the document!
Regards,
Javier

Sergio Campo
: An earthbag foundation, as you propose, is made up with earthbags, nothing to do with a "losa cajón". I'd also say the "6 metros de luz" bit rules out this slab from being a foundation slab

: Seems to be better than my answer... but: 1) is 6 mt, not ft ; 2) slab goes only for the "losa", but what about the "cajon"?

Hi Javier: I believe it refers to a sunken panel, known as a coffer in English which lends strength to the structure. Saludos & happy holidays. eski :))
