Abstract
A support footer system including a set of pre-cast concrete footers to provide additional support for a structure such as a home, garage, or other buildings and increase structural integrity. The pre-cast concrete footers are inserted and installed into a ground surface forming a defined base perimeter. A footer-unit is installed on top of the at least one pre-cast footers forming a support base for a structure to be built thereon.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent is set forth in the appended claims:
1 . A support footer system comprising:
a footer assembly including;
at least one pre-cast footer;
wherein said at least one pre-cast footer is inserted into a ground surface and installed forming a defined base perimeter; wherein one of said at least one pre-cast footers is installed at each corner of said defined base perimeter; and wherein a footer-unit is installed on top of said at least one pre-cast footers forming a support base for a structure to be built thereon.
2 . The support footer system of claim 1 , wherein each of said at least one pre-cast footer comprises a ground-insertion-member and a planar-member.
3 . The support footer system of claim 2 , wherein said ground-insertion-member extends vertically from said planar-member.
4 . The support footer system of claim 3 , wherein said ground-insertion-member is configured to be inserted into said ground surface.
5 . The support footer system of claim 2 , wherein said planar-member comprises a planar surface for supporting said structure thereon.
6 . The support footer system of claim 5 , wherein said planar-member comprises a 90-degree angle profile.
7 . The support footer system of claim 5 , wherein said planar-member comprises a top-side and a bottom-side, said bottom-side having said ground-insertion-member extending therefrom and said top-side being in contact with said footer-unit when installed.
8 . The support footer system of claim 7 , wherein said top-side of said planar-member comprises a raised outer border defining a first-side and a second-side of said 90-degree angle profile.
9 . The support footer system of claim 8 , wherein end-portions of said 90-degree angle profile are open-ended.
10 . The support footer system of claim 1 , wherein said planar-member is positioned above said ground surface when said ground-insertion-member is fully inserted into said ground surface.
11 . The support footer system of claim 5 , wherein said planar-member does not comprise a 90-degree angle profile.
12 . The support footer system of claim 1 , wherein said defined base perimeter is substantially similar to a profile of a base of said structure.
13 . The support footer system of claim 1 , wherein said ground-insertion-member and a planar-member together form a single unit.
14 . The support footer system of claim 1 , wherein said at least one pre-cast footer further comprises a stop notch.
15 . The support footer system of claim 1 , wherein each of said at least one pre-cast footer comprises concrete.
16 . The support footer system of claim 1 , wherein said at least one pre-cast footer comprises a height of approximately 12 inches.
17 . The support footer system of claim 16 , wherein said at least one pre-cast footer comprises a width of approximately 16 inches.
18 . The support footer system of claim 17 , wherein a minimum-length of said at least one pre-cast footer is 8 feet.
19 . The support footer system of claim 18 , wherein a maximum-length of said at least one pre-cast footer is 30 feet.
20 . A support footer system, the support footer system comprising:
a footer assembly including;
at least one pre-cast footer;
wherein said at least one pre-cast footer is inserted into a ground surface and installed forming a defined base perimeter; wherein one of said at least one pre-cast footers is installed at each corner of said defined base perimeter; wherein a footer-unit is installed on top of said at least one pre-cast footers forming a support base for a structure to be built thereon wherein each of said at least one pre-cast footer comprises a ground-insertion-member and a planar-member; wherein said ground-insertion-member extends vertically from said planar-member; wherein said ground-insertion-member is configured to be inserted into said ground surface; wherein said planar-member comprises a planar surface for supporting said structure thereon; wherein said planar-member comprises a 90-degree angle profile; wherein said planar-member comprises a top-side and a bottom-side, said bottom-side having said ground-insertion-member extending therefrom and said top-side being in contact with said footer-unit when installed; wherein said top-side of said planar-member comprises a raised outer border defining a first-side and a second-side of said 90-degree angle profile; wherein end-portions of said 90-degree angle profile are open-ended; wherein said planar-member is positioned above said ground surface when said ground-insertion-member is fully inserted into said ground surface; wherein said defined base perimeter is substantially similar to a profile of a base of said structure; wherein said ground-insertion-member and a planar-member together form a single unit; wherein said at least one pre-cast footer further comprises a stop notch; wherein each of said at least one pre-cast footer comprises concrete; wherein said at least one pre-cast footer comprises a height of approximately 12 inches; and wherein said at least one pre-cast footer comprises a width of approximately 16 inches.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
