Earthquale Bracing for Manufractured Homes

Mobile Home Earthquake Resistant Bracing Systems, Tie-Downs – Washington State

Are you concerned that your mobile home may not hold up well in an earthquake? Did you know factory-installed systems can wear out? We have great news for you. We offer two bracing systems to choose from to meet your budget.

PSC’s vs Xi2’s?

First, we have the Xi2 system which installs on two opposite corners and is basically a wind tie-down while the PSC system is considered a full seismic-resistant permanent foundation.

While the PSC system installs on all beams fully supporting the home even if the blocks fail. On the other hand, the Xi2 system is designed to keep the home on its blocking.

Tie-down Strapping

Additionally, we offer to install traditionally manufactured home tie-downs strapping. Furthermore, depending on the system you choose we offer both installations or we can sell you the materials only. Call 360-419-9909 for more information.

INFO

Xi2 Foundation Systems are designed to replace mobile home tie-down straps or can be installed additionally.

Even more, this system can be used in conjunction with piers. Xi2 Systems gives homes more stability in wind or seismic activity.

There are several kinds of Xi2’s systems to meet your needs. Depending on which system works for you they are all the same price.

Foundation System for Soil (RG11040) .
Foundation System for Concrete (RG11045).
Longitudinal bars are available in several lengths.

(P.S.C.) Primary Support Columns (mobile home earthquake bracing)

The main benefit of PSCs is they meet the HUD Guide for Permanent Foundations for supporting units. The Primary Support Columns are made of structural steel Supports attaching mechanically at engineered intervals under all I-beams and to independent precast pads. Even more, this design is nothing short of genius because it enables intense wind and seismic loads to be dispersed at separate load points.

Why is foundation separation a better idea for mobile home earthquake bracing systems? Because the homes’ weight is distributed independently allowing flexibility for absorbing seismic shocks. Obviously, this is better.

As a result, the system is better because the load points are separated. Most noteworthy, during seismic or wind activity it will support the home even if the blocking fails.

They’re a full support system and it makes it superior to all the other systems offered.

Technical DATA

PSC’s, mobile home earthquake bracing, are made using structural steel support columns mechanically attached to the homes I-Beams and to precast concrete pads. Most standard double-wide manufactured homes use 12 support columns. The primary support columns consists of:

Concrete Footing. Pre-cast, reinforced (11 feet of steel reinforcing bar), high strength (3,000+ psi test concrete), light weight (110 – 120 pounds), 24″ by 38″ footprint.
Steel Stand. High strength (tested to >35,000 pounds), attached to the footing, single-bolt coarse adjustments (2″ increments). Three base heights allow the PSC to accommodate a wide range of foundation heights.
Steel Head patented. Integral part of the stand, high strength (tested to >35,000 pounds), load bearing and leveling, infinite position fine adjustment (3″), very easy single-bolt adjustment, large load bearing area, solidly bolted to the I-beam, high strength I-beam attachment mechanism is designed to accommodate different size I-beam flanges while not requiring any holes in the I-beam, bolts welded to the attachment mechanism for ease of installation with impact wrench, adjustable while bearing the full weight of the manufactured home.

24-inch Frost Depth Zones. The standard PSC fully complies with frost depth requirements where frost depth is 42 inches or less. More than 85% of the total U.S. manufactured housing marketplace to date is in areas where frost depth is 42 inches or less.

Therefore, this mobile home earthquake bracing system is a top tier system.
