Permit-ready

What the building department looks at.

  • Openings & reinforcement

    Every cut in a container is reinforced so the box keeps its strength.

  • Foundation & anchorage

    Footings, piers or slab, and how the containers are anchored for wind.

  • IBC 3115 & local code

    The code section for shipping containers, plus your jurisdiction’s amendments.

  • Insulation & energy

    Condensation control, insulation and HVAC sizing for steel walls.

Questions

Do I need a permit for container homes?

It depends on where you live, the size and whether it attaches to the house. Many jurisdictions require a permit above a certain size, and in hurricane and snow regions most want engineered details. Tell us your address and we will tell you what your building department asks for.

Who are Bamboo Designs and Oasis Designs?

They are the Oasis Engineering design studios. Bamboo Designs draws DIY plans for outdoor structures, sheds, decks and cabins; Oasis Designs draws container homes, tiny homes and house plans. Buy the plan from the studio; when you need it engineered for a permit, Oasis Engineering takes it from there.

What is the “Customize + stamp” bundle?

Pick any plan and choose what you need: customization (size, height, roof or layout), an engineer’s review and stamp for your site, a site plan, and permit support. Oasis Engineering sends one quote for the bundle before any work starts.

Can I build the plan without engineering?

Many people do, where their jurisdiction does not require a permit or an engineer for that size. If yours does, add the engineering when you need it; the plan you bought is the starting point.
