public Foundation Foundation {get; set;}
Remarks
Single-family dwellings are often built on basements or on shallow foundations. Most mid-rise buildings are built on mat foundations. High-rise buildings tend to be supported on pile-foundations. Piles are generally better performers in earthquakes.

Note: MasonryWall is no longer supported and, if used, will be mapped to Unknown (default).

For the United Kingdom and Germany inland flood models, only Unknown, MasonryBasement, ConcreteBasement, and NoBasement are applicable. Also, note that NoBasement is not applicable for the U.S. Earthquake model.

Default: Unknown (0)

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
