Foundation and Footings

Foundation and Footings

Foundation and Footings are the parts of a building that transfer structural loads into the supporting ground. Footings spread loads from walls, columns, or other members, while foundation systems connect the ground support to the building above. Foundation and Footings vary with soil conditions, structural form, and site levels, with concrete, masonry, piles, or other systems serving different construction situations.

Ground preparation, foundations, concrete elements, and framing establish the physical support and shape of a building. Floor, wall, and roof assemblies connect these systems into a structural enclosure, with setting out, connections, and coordination between trades affecting how the separate stages fit together.
