Foundations are the structural element that supports the structure above in various ways. Load is transferred through the foundation wall and footing system with direct bearing on the soil underneath. Generally, foundation failures refer to the failure of the foundation system or the failure of the soil.
In cases where a foundation failure is caused unstable soil, a permanent support structure such as underpinning should be installed. Ground anchoring systems such as helical and push piers are used to repair the structural integrity of the foundation.
