ABSTRACT:
A skirting system for manufactured residential and commercial building structures. The skirting system having a plurality of precast concrete panels which are disposed around the base perimeter of the manufactured building. The top end of the panels are restrained between two vertically disposed members extending around the perimeter of the manufactured building. The bottom end of the panels rest on and are restrained by a plurality of set blocks. The set blocks are held in position by anchor rods inserted through apertures in the set block and into the soil. The edges of the panels are sealed with a bead of caulking. Soil is then placed against the exterior of the panels to assist in restraining the panels and to give the appearance of a cast-in-place concrete foundation wall. The precast panels may include a layer of foam insulation and the panels may also include an opening for receiving an automatic vent. Rather than using set blocks, the bottom of the panels may rest on a frost footing or concrete slab.
