Abstract: One example embodiment includes a steel and foam foundation. The steel and foam foundation includes a main body, where the main body is formed of EPS foam and a sloped exterior. The sloped exterior is formed of EPS foam on an exterior surface of the main body and ensures that the bottom of the steel and foam foundation is wider than the top of the steel and foam foundation. The steel and foam foundation also includes a first I-beam and a second I-beam. The first and second I-beams are placed on opposite edges of the main body. The steel and foam foundation further includes a first piece of L-metal, a second piece of L-metal, a third piece of L-metal, and a fourth piece of L-metal. Each piece of L-metal includes a first flange and a second flange and is placed around the remaining edges of the main body.
