ABSTRACT:
A foundation, a footing of a foundation, and a method of constructing a foundation for a light gauge steel building structure wherein the footing has a vertical post portion with a foot portion secured to its lower end and a connecting portion extending form its upper end. The connecting portion is in the form of a pair of spaced light gauge steel strips extending on opposite sides of a foundation sill plate and having a sufficient vertical extent to allow securement of the strips to the foundation sill plate member at variations in the relative vertical disposition of the footing and a horizontally leveled foundation sill plate member. This variation is also accommodated by using self-tapping, self-threading screws that are secured through the connecting portion strips at locations determined after setting of the footings in relation to the relative positioning of the footings and the foundation sill plate members. Wind anchors may be set and applied to the foundation sill plate members if necessary or required. The foundation sill plate members provide a base on which channel tracks of a light gauge steel building is then erected.
