1/2 of my yard is filled with wood splits. i'd like to get my system to a point where it's split, stack, burn, not split, stack, move, stack, burn.
an ideal spot for this is right next to my house not too far from the door i would use to get the wood. i know a lot of people on here have wood stored very close to their house. have you seen settlement or foundation issues as a result of storing so much weight next to your structure?
my foundation is cast-in-place concrete, 6" walls, probably 5ft high at the location i'd like to load up. i can't image the weight would be enough to cause issues, but who knows. the would stacks would be on spread footings, not solid concrete, so it would be a couple of point loads.
i would appreciate insight on your experience to date.
