ABSTRACT:
Foundation assemblies for buildings comprising sill means and a wall plate connected thereto. The wall plate serves to support a plurality of elongated half-stud members on which vertical wall panels are mounted.
In one embodiment of the invention, the sill plate is mounted directly on and connected to a concrete foundation element and comprises a sill plate and a sill locking plate. A flanged stud-tie plate is interposed between the sill locking plate and the wall plate and serves to expedite the mounting of the stud members.
In a further embodiment of the invention, the sill means is mounted on a vertically extending pier for supporting the sill plate and associated structure above the ground. In this embodiment, the sill means comprises a sill plate, a sill locking plate and a beam support angle having a portion connected to the pier and the sill plate for supporting the beam of a floor support assembly.
In another embodiment of this invention, the sill means is mounted directly on the ground and includes a channel-like mud sill and a mud plate adapted to be staked to the ground and having a resilient portion for urging the mud sill into secure engagement with the ground.
In still another embodiment of this invention, a corner bracket is provided for interconnecting two sill means and associated structural components to form a corner of the foundation assembly.
In yet another embodiment of this invention, a hollow floor support beam of a floor support assembly is mounted above the ground on a vertically extending pier. The pier is connected to the floor support assembly via a pair of interconnected beam support angles.
