Cracked masonry wall below a window under forensic inspection

Project Brief

RCC Engineers was engaged to investigate significant external masonry cracking and concerns regarding possible foundation movement at an existing residence.

Our Scope

Engineering Outcome

The assessment identified general building movement and provided targeted recommendations for drainage improvements, masonry repairs, articulation joints and ongoing monitoring rather than unnecessary major foundation intervention.
