The right foundation for your temporary classroom
A temporary classroom may arrive in one large module or several linked sections. The foundation has to place every support at the right level so the units connect cleanly and the finished entrances work with ramps and paths.
Designed reactions
Support locations and capacities come from the classroom supplier or project engineer.

From first call to a finished foundation
Getting started is simple. We will guide you through the choices and explain any information needed before installation.
Talk through the options
We discuss the site and suitable foundations, identify any supplier information needed and provide a clear written quotation.
Install and hand over
Our team marks out and installs the agreed foundation, with the required checks before the next stage of your project.
Choose the foundation, not the complication
Foundation options for your temporary classroom
These are the methods worth assessing for this application. The structure, support plan and actual ground determine the right choice—not a one-size-fits-all specification.
Installed ground screws
Ground screws and support frame
An engineered screw layout can reduce wet trades and provide promptly usable supports when verified for the loads and ground.
Worth considering for: Programmes with short possession windows or uneven external sites

Concrete
Concrete foundation
Pads, strips or a slab can be installed to approved drawings where the project requires conventional permanent support.
Worth considering for: Longer-term classroom installations and specifications calling for concrete

Temporary Classroom Foundations installation
Planned around its use
What matters for your temporary classroom
JustBases can install concrete or ground-screw foundation elements to the approved modular design. Work is planned around delivery access, safeguarding constraints and the wider site programme.

School-safe logistics

Accessible thresholds
Foundation height affects ramps, landings and inclusive access into the completed classroom.
When the design and ground are suitable
Why consider ground screws?
Year-round flexibility
A screw-only foundation avoids pouring and curing concrete, reducing one source of weather-related delays. Unsafe access, flooding, frozen or unsuitable ground can still mean postponing installation.
Less digging and mess
Localised supports can reduce excavation and spoil compared with extensive concrete foundations. Clearance, pre-drilling, service trenches and machinery access may still disturb the site.
A lower-impact approach
Using less concrete and moving less spoil can reduce material use and transport. Retaining vegetation may benefit habitats, but trees and wildlife still need protection. Steel manufacture and the full project design matter to any carbon comparison.
Before installation
Dimensions, approvals and responsibilities
Classroom projects need coordinated drawings covering the building, foundations, drainage, utilities, fire access and accessibility. The foundation record is only one part of that approval package.
Ground investigation or proof testing may be required for engineered screw solutions, depending on the designer and building-control route.
JustBases quotes the agreed foundation and groundwork. Product installation, specialist connections, commissioning and third-party design remain outside our scope unless the written quotation expressly includes them.
