The area is about 8x16 at this point and completely flat. Size and exact design may change depending but it wont' be far off from that. The reason I'm doing this is because I want a deck I can sit on and look over the wall and see the golf course. Deck wouldn't touch the house at any point but it would be about three or four feet high depending on the hight I need to be sitting at to see over the wall. I'll deal with building codes when the time comes. My concern at this point is just wether or not these blocks really suffice for a foundation or if they are not suitable from the point of view of structural integrity.
