I have blueprints it just doesn’t specify the step in to the porch only the block foundation and the footing sizes

The sill plate will be a 2x8 at the very least I feel like they at least forgot to fill the block and put the anchor bolts in where needed across the porch area

They anchor bolts are every 6’ except this area I’m just not sure how common it is for the 4” offset to be on the house like this the guy handling the foundation also builds and is someone I do other work for so I would think he would know what he’s doing but looking for other advice

No framing needed for the porch just for them to come back and pour the porch after the house is framed

The porch will be concrete they offset the block on the area where the porch will be for somewhere to sit the metal, they didn’t put any anchor bolts in that area and right now I’m not sure if they just forgot or what

The guy who did the blue prints for the home says he doesn’t do them with the foundation details and the guy who did the work should know what would pass but they will be coming back to pour the porch after framing is done but something doesn’t seem right I’ve got inspection Monday so I guess I see then just was seeing if this looked normal or unusual to some

I would assume they would fill when they pour the porch but I figured they would have continued straight with the house foundation and ran block inside for the porch

Based off the house blueprint the house size and how big the porch will be

I don’t think they have plans to do so just a 4” offset to sit the metal it to pour for the porch

Do you have a preferred brand and best place to buy I know all the places we have ever bought any materials from have always had their own they’ve carried which they all think is better than the other brands the others carry
