do post tension, get a geo techicnal report done for home site and have a soil report done on the dirt you intend to use for fill dirt to make sure the organic makeup is corrrect to achieve good compaction . do compaction in 6" lifts . you need to keep this stuff documented that way if something goes wrong with postension slab, you have info to back up what you did prep wise and that is reqired to get warranty on post tension slab
