Abstract
The present invention provides a foundation structure for a house in which adjacent members for constructing the foundation are joined to each other. Each foundation member has an end groove, formed in at least one end thereof, and a slim groove, formed in the upper portion of the foundation member, so that the slim groove communicates with the end groove. To join adjacent foundation members together, a binding member is received in the slim grooves and end grooves of adjacent foundation members so that a communicating groove is formed between the joined foundation members and that the binding member defines opposed recesses in the communicating groove to receive tenons provided on a pillar that is connectable to the foundation. Wedge-shaped portions on ends of the binding member cooperate with wedge-shaped recesses provided at ends of the slim groove so that the wedge-shaped portion and recesses, when the binding member is received in the foundation members, prevent the foundation members from being separated.
