A. The primary standard for a home installation is the manufacturers written installation instructions, which is required for all new homes. For used homes, where the installation instructions are no longer available, the alternate standard for temporary foundation sets is the NCSBCS/ANSI A225.1-1994 as amended. Site-built permanent foundations must be built in accordance with local building department requirements. When there is no local building department authority, permanent foundations must be engineered or built to conform with the alternate standard for permanent foundation sets is the September, 1996 edition of the HUD Permanent Foundations Guide for Manufactured Housing.
