Not always, but you should check with your local building code or building official. There is a maximum number of courses (height) and minimum thicknesses that change the potential height.
yes--nearly all foundations are concrete.. either concrete block or solid concrete.
Domestic foundations typically utilize materials such as concrete, masonry, and stone. Concrete is the most common choice due to its strength and durability, often reinforced with steel rebar. Other materials, like brick or block masonry, are used for specific foundation types, such as crawl spaces or basements. Additionally, some foundations may incorporate treated wood or insulation materials for specific environmental needs or climates.
The block of rock below a fault is the "footwall" if you are referring to geology/earthquake terms.

Machine foundations must be designed to support machinery while minimizing vibrations and ensuring stability. Key requirements include adequate load-bearing capacity, proper damping characteristics, and resistance to dynamic forces. Types of machine foundations include block foundations, slab foundations, and pile foundations, each suited for specific machinery and soil conditions. The choice depends on factors such as the weight of the machinery, operational speed, and soil characteristics.
