The Ultimate – Tiny House Foundation
By Your Request — The Best Tiny House Trailer Plans! These are purpose built blueprints for a Tiny House Foundation (the trailer). If you want a Tiny Home, don’t mess with trailers of a different purpose. Build your Foundation with engineering specifically for a Tiny House.
Blueprints made for Tiny Homes include a strong perimeter to support the walls, an I-Beam frame for high strength, and floor integration for a low deck, solid floor, and more vertical interior space. Choose the 20′ Trailer, the 24′ Trailer, or the not-so-tiny 30′ / 32′ Trailer. We even have plans for extra wide foundations – 10′ Wide, and 12′ Wide.
Read about designing for a solid foundation, or read the engineering case study. Then, download the plans for your Tiny House Trailer.
