I’ve searched and searched for this old discussion but I can’t find it. Its a long “how I built it” discussion with pictures like MikeSmith posts (it might be his). It starts off digging the crawl space out (I think). He puts in crushed stone. He uses Form-A=Drain for footings. Applies a vapor barrier over the footings and then goes up with the ICFs.
Does this ring any bells? Thanks in advance.

No bells ringing, sorry
Here is a bump for you.
Sounds like a compilation of two threads of mine.
One was "Where's the cannonball" I think - where I used formadrain for the footers and a membrane to waterproof the walls but those walls were normally formed.
The other was titled, "Jack that house john Henry" and had lots of photos of the foundation replacement where we dug out deeper, poured footings and then the ICF. It was intended to show a sequence of the work.
co-incidentally, both houses are within a home run of each other and I was there today.
