Abstract
A support member has an enlarged rectangular shaped wall with an inner side and an outer side and four side walls extending from the inner side with free edges spaced from the enlarged rectangular shaped wall forming a rectangular shaped opening large enough to receive and support a mattress on the inner side of the enlarged rectangular shaped wall between the side walls. The enlarged rectangular shaped wall and the four side walls of the support member are formed of layers of fibrous material such as paper or fiberboard glued together. The enlarged rectangular shaped wall and the side walls of the support member are strong enough to allow the support member to be supported by the edges of the side walls on a surface and to support a mattress on the outer side of the enlarged rectangular shaped wall for sleeping purposes thereby forming a foundation for the mattress.
