I'm about to build a deck and my question is do I have to use cardboard concrete tubes ( sonotubes ) or could I just use PVC plastic tubes to pour the footings? where I work I can get 10-12 inch pvc plastic pipe for free, and if I can avoid paying $9 a tube ( also have several future projects that I will need footings for) that would be a good thing. And if I can't used PVC, could someone please tell me why? I'm one of those that has to know the reason behind everything. : )
I've searched the site and couldn't find this covered anywhere else, but if it is, a link to that forum would be appreciated too. Thanks
