Concrete Footings

Why do you need footings ?  Answer = To Prevent frost Heaving

Frost heaving occurs when soil expands and contracts due to freezing and thawing.  The severity of this effect is determined by the ability of the soil to retain moisture and the climate.  In certain conditions this force is strong enough to lift the foundation of a concrete stoop or deck to separate from the house.

You need footings that go below the frost lines.  This is the depth at which the moisture present in the soil is expected to freeze.  Once your footings are buried below the frost line the ground will act as a barrier to insulate the soil below the footing from freezing in the winter.
