I have a 1999 Fall Creek 28X48 that I am relocating and the concrete contractor and County Building Supervisor needs foundation drawings and blueprints for info on where to pour the piers,or full foundation if I decide to go that way.
The S/n and Unit Designation are: FC01171099A&B 48-1 (This came from inside a
cabinet) and the outside plates read:RAD1188760 and RAD 1188761.
Also, I'd appreciate any opinions on the type of foundation and the benefits/drawbacks of either:
Pier and Skirting or Full 5 block foundation.
I cannot go with a full basement because it is too close to a lake and the water table is approximately 2 feet below the surface. Thanks

Re: Blueprints,foundation locating points
Fall Creek is long out of business. Prints are no longer available. An experienced installer can draw you one by measuring your home and using the installation manual requirements. I prefer a block wall. The extra sidewall support makes for extra support and much stiffer floors. You will still need either piers or cross beams to support the steel frame rails.
Re: Blueprints,foundation locating points
By Federal edict your state WILL REQUIRE you use a properly licensed manufactured home set up contractor. He WILL have to have the original set up manual OR design a set up to a generic state set up code in place in your state. Your local building inspector should be able to direct you to a copy of the REQUIRED set requirements in your county. He should also be able to point you to a local state licensed set contractor. These contractors WILL be VERY familiar with your states generic set up requirements. Personally I would NOT involve a concrete contractor until the licensed set up contractor has helped you design an acceptable foundation plan..

Re: Blueprints,foundation locating points
The permit can ONLY be gotten by a licensed set crew..They WILL be familiar with the states generic set and blocking requirements which are used when original documents are not available. Find a licensed crew and contract with them...
