I think it was built in the 70's when concrete was cheap. They had almost no rebar when we broke them apart. No expansive soil in this area. Sandy Silt. I think it was because they had a small footing with these large footings at the panel joints. It was still a surprise and overkill. IMO. But just like everything. Build it bigger and stronger until you have the knowledge to build it better.
