ABSTRACT:
The present modular foundation construction includes a plurality of interconnectable extruded modular forms configured to be selectively arranged and interconnected in the shape of a customized building foundation. The plurality of forms, when the shape of the customized foundation, define a series of interconnected first cavities extending around the shape for receiving poured concrete and further include a series of second cavities extending along the first cavities filled with insulation to form a substantially continuous insulative layer around the shape. Male and female connectors on the end wall sections of the forms provide a secure interconnection. A method includes extruding the modular forms, filling the second cavities with insulative material, shipping the extruded modular forms to a construction site, assembling the modular forms in the desired customized building foundation shape, positioning reinforcement bars and/or utility-carrying tubes along the shape, and pouring concrete into the first cavities of the assembled modular foundation construction.
