When the piers were build in Glenwood deep soil Pam, was rebar used and put into the piers, with cement?

On lava, do holes or impressions needed to be dug to secure piers, rebar and concrete to the lava bed pahoehoe? It seems if you just placed them on top of the smooth lava and the earth wiggled and giggled as it does, then they would just dance around.

Are piers constructed differently for soil, crumbly lava, and smooth lava? What do people think, what experiences have you had? Mahalo Mella L
