So I have yet another question. Since these buildings have to be built on a trailer to be classified as a 'trailer' , can you buy several of these and just sink the thing into the ground ?
Does it have to remain on the trailer ?
If so, could you attach two of them together to make a " double wide " tiny home , or would that change what the home is classified as ?

These what? Xist's conex containers? I think tiny houses are defined mostly by floor area, maybe 300-500sq ft. So two 20' containers at 640sq ft might go over a limit. Sink one in the ground and peel the roof off to make an in-ground swimming pool.

Legal considerations
In many North American municipalities, secondary suites are illegal because they do not conform to the zoning or land use district the property is in, they have been developed without the proper permits, or they do not meet the local building code. However, some localities only prohibit the renting out of secondary suites, and allow occupation by a relative or guest, leading to the use of the term "mother-in-law" house or apartment. Local jurisdictions may have rules regarding allowing certain relatives to live there and rules about what, if any, rent may be charged.

That ad. Was it for
Steel Buildings, Metal Buildings, Garages, Carports, Storage Buildings, RV Storage |*SteelMaster USA? That's an interesting case structurally, they arch, fold and corrugate a single layer of steel and suddenly it's self supporting. A 24' arch 16' deep would be 384sq ft. with nowhere more than 8ft from a [potential] window. You could have the North wall at ground level and South on a 6' 8" header and have three flat walls.
