They often yield more than 100 sq. ft. of additional warm and dry basement living space. PWF is one of the fastest growing developments in residential, commercial, and light industrial construction. More than 40 years have been devoted to the research, testing and perfection of this construction concept, a concept that is proving its ad daily in th ds of homes throughout North America. The National House i Association (now the Mousing and Urban Development Association of Canada), in cooperation with Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, the Division of Building Research of the National Research Council and the Eastern Forest Products Laboratory first built experimental PWF homes in 1961 and 1963 near Ottawa. Since then the use of the PWF has expanded in both Canada and the United States, gaining rapid acceptance and approvals of major associations, agencies and code officials. The Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) accepts wood foundations for houses built with National Housing Act financed through FHA, the Farmers Home Administration and countless banking institutions. Fire and Homeowner's insur: policies make no distinction in base premiums between homes with PWF, concrete or masonry block foundations.
