A cavity wall doesn’t require any footings under it; just a strong concrete base is provided on which
it is constructed centrally.
The cavity may be started from 150 mm below the DPC at the plinth level to facilitate drainage of
any condensed moisture below it otherwise it may be started from immediately above the plinth
level.
The cavity may be right up to the top of the parapet and covered by coping and DPC.
