    They can carry the weight but I am wondering about engineering & approvals..... Thanks.
    I think you want a quick way to lay a basement.

    If you use the footer and foam blocks( ICF's) to build your foundation you can pour the foundation one week and the walls the next and still not cost as much as the containers plus have a really well insulated basement...
