2502-AJ15 201410 The Regulatory Plan and the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 2502 Office of Housing OH 2500 Department of Housing and Urban Development HUD Model Manufactured Home Installation Standards: Ground Anchor Installations (FR-5631)

This rule amends the Manufactured Home Model Installation Standards by adopting recommendations made by the Manufactured Home Consensus Committee to revise existing requirements for ground anchor installations and establish standardized test methods to determine ground anchor performance and resistance. While HUD's Model Manufactured Home Installation Standards reference a nationally recognized testing protocol for ground anchor assemblies, there is currently no national test method for rating and certifying ground anchor assemblies in different soil classifications. This rule establishes a uniform test method which could be used by all States for rating and certifying the performance of ground anchor assemblies.
