MODULAR FOUNDATION RESISTANT TO GROUND MOVEMENT
One or more modules are each moulded as single units. Separately or fastened together they form a foundation resistant to ground movement including earthquakes and frost heave. A lower plane rests on a substrate. Perimeter and internal walls support a raised upper plane for receiving a building such as a rotationally moulded round house. Modules are made of reinforced concrete or rotationally moulded plastics and enclose internal cavities used as tanks or filled with a rigid foam. Lifting attachments are provided for transport of modules or temporary foundation lifting during rearrangement of a disturbed substrate.
