Foundation Failure

 

The purpose of a foundation is to distribute the weight of a structure securely into the ground. Geotechnical engineering data regarding soil, rock and water conditions are used to design foundations with structural integrity. When foundation failure does occur, it is usually the result of differential settlement or heaving of the soil that supports the foundation.

The result may be one or more of the following problems:

* Windows and doors sticking	* Drywall separating
* Roof or basement leaking	* Space between wall baseboard and   floors
* Bricks or walls cracking	* Chimneys tilting or leaning
* Walls bowing, bulging or leaning	* Garage leaning
* Caulking tearing at windows
