Foundation requirements and on-site installation
Thanks to the rigid steel shell of a shipping container, the house does not need an expensive monolithic strip foundation. The optimal solution is screw piles (108 mm diameter) or reinforced concrete driven piles with caps. Placing and connecting the modules on a ready pile foundation takes one working day.
