Questions on repairing an old pier beam foundation the floor joist sit on top of the beams, the end walls are framed and sit on top of the ground.
I need to re level the whole house, replacing the bois d’arc stumps, not sure the best way to handle the end wall that sit on top of the ground.
The roof is supported by the walls that sit on the beams, the other end walls sit on the ground.
So how do I support the end walls as the floor joists are, sitting on top of the beams, the floor joists are 2×10”

by sitting on the ground do you mean direct contanct with earth?
if so, lift the whole structure, dig and pour a foundation, lay at least 1 layer of block, new PT sill, set the house back down. it is not as expensive as you may think to get a house mover to raise your house.
