What are foundations?

Foundations are the essential structural components that provide stability and support to any building or structure. Serving as the base upon which everything else rests, foundations distribute the weight of the structure and transfer it to the underlying soil or rock. They are designed to withstand the forces exerted by the building's weight, as well as external loads such as wind, seismic activity, and soil movements.

What are foundations made out of?

Foundations can be constructed using various materials, including concrete, steel, and wood, depending on the type and size of the structure. They are typically built below ground level to ensure stability and to protect against environmental factors.
