(A) The area of the mobile home stand shall be improved to provide adequate support for the placement and tie-down of the mobile home, thereby securing the superstructure against uplift, sliding, rotation and overturning. The mobile home stand shall be constructed so as not to heave, shift or settle unevenly under the weight of the mobile home due to frost action, inadequate drainage, vibration or other forces acting on the structure.
(B) The mobile home stand shall be provided with anchors and tie-downs, such as cast-in-place concrete “dead men,” eyelets imbedded in concrete foundations or runways, screw augers, arrowhead anchors or other devices securing the stability of the mobile home.
(C) Anchors and tie-downs shall be placed at least at each corner of the mobile home stand, and each shall be able to sustain a minimum tensile strength of 2,800 pounds.
