  Comment: This manufactured home needs to be HUD compliant for a loan. The foundation needs to be a permanent foundation. Can you do the following? 1. The home is inadequately braced for both sliding and uplift. The home will require an engineered bracing/tiedown system anchored to concrete footings or slabs to be in compliance with HUD regulations for both horizontal and vertical bracing. Soil anchors are not an acceptable system for anchorage. (§100-1-C-a) 2. Exterior walls at doorways and marriage walls at openings need to have adequate piers to support them. These piers must sit atop a reinforced concrete footing with a minimum thickness of 8 inches or 1-1/2 times the length of the footing projection from the pier. (per §503) The bottoms of the footings should sit below frostline. 3. Existing Chassis Piers do not incorporate a reinforced concrete footing. Chassis piers require a reinforced concrete footing sized appropriately to prevent overloading the soil. (§100-1-C-b states “ Footing shall be reinforced concrete to be considered permanent”). Existing piers may be reused after new reinforced concrete footing is installed. These piers must sit atop a reinforced concrete footing with a minimum thickness of 8 inches or 1-1/2 times the length of the footing projection from the pier. (per §503) The bottoms of the footings should sit below frostline.
