The foundation of a standard built home sits on the footing. The footing is the base that the foundation walls are built upon and is usually made of concrete or masonry. The mudsill is a framing element that sits on top of the foundation walls, the collar beam is a horizontal beam that connects two rafters in the roof, and the stud is a vertical framing element that supports the walls. None of these are the foundation itself.
