MODIFIED JERSEY BARRIER FOUNDATION SYSTEM
A foundation system utilizes conventional construction barriers, such as Jersey barriers, or the like, to form a foundation stem wall. Various modifications are made to the construction barriers to permit their use in both on frame and off frame construction. The foundation system of the present invention may also be used for conventional construction, including stud wall construction and block home construction. Generally, an on frame construction technique is used for modular or metal structures where the metal frame remains on the bottom of the walls. This permits, for example, the re-addition of a tongue, axles, wheels, and the like, to allow the building to be moved if desired. With off frame construction, the modular sections of the building are lifted off the frame and attached to, for example, a stem wall via connectors, straps, or the like.
