Which of the following examples is a common type of foundation system?

Basement
Slab
Crawl space
All of the above

Explanation

Answer: D - All of the above are common types of foundation systems. Basements are common in the north because they work well in colder climates. Slab foundations do not do as well in colder climates because they can freeze and crack. Crawl spaces are viewed by many to be superior foundation systems because they lift the home away from the ground which helps prevent insect infestation.
