Perm foundation on masonary blocks

[Rich]

Hi,
I have a 1976 mobile home and I am trying to place it on a perm masonary foundation.
I tried the building and safety dept in Riverside Calif for a set of engineered plans showing how to do this.
They do not have a set. The home is too old for the manufacture to assist with the problem.
It is a Redman home, the model is a Kirkwood.

I have done this type of foundation in the past and can do it again, but the builiding dept won't let me pull out the permit until I have the correct set of plans.
The building dept usually has a set for my needs they do not for this masonary block perm foundation.
Do you know where I can get a set?

The plans call for a 12 inch by 12 inch footing, with rebar running the length of the footing, and 3 layers of masonary block. then 2 pieces of pressure treated wood on top of the block with the mobile attached with Simpson tie plates every foot. The tie plate is 5 inch's by 7 inches.

I can not install the home until I have these plans.

Thank you,

Rich

Look in the yellow pages under "engineers" for foundation and soils engineers. There should be someone listed there familiar with manufactured home permanent foundations that can draw something up for you.
