Tie downs

[Phillip]

Hi,

I need to find the new guide lines for manufacture home tie downs.

Would someone point me in the right direction.

Thanks

This is why I was looking for tie downs.

This is the system that they used on my sons home that they just set up.

It looks like a take off of two of the systems that is list.

We check and this is what The state is letting them do on new and old double wide and new single wide.

There is only two on the house.

You got to be kidding. Is that a pre-cast footer that they bolted to? I guess they are not concerned with roll over or up lift. Maybe they just want to resist some drift and scoot in moderate conditions.

Could be what they call "earthquake cradles". Have no idea oif there's a standard for them, but I've seen paperwork on 'em and the unit I did last week had a set on it.

They were much more substantial, though.

Chris,

That is a metal plate with dry laid blocks on it. We are in zone one where the wind is under 65 mph.

Randy,

I don't know what they are called. It is very rare that we have an earthquake here. Do you have a photo of your set up?

Metal plate for a footer? I have never seen that done here in my region. Interesting.
