Welcome! My brother in law lives in Duque.

I'm in Cin. Ohio and our frostn line is ~30". I actually dug down past that and built a footer. I have heard about an insulation pad but don't know much about it.

Net, I think you definitely need to plan/account for frost heave when building...

I would search the forum as there are some good posts.
