Pile foundations are used to transfer building loads to deeper, more stable layers of soil, bypassing the weak black cotton soil.


Would whitebeam tree roots cause damage to foundations?

Yes, the roots of a whitebeam tree can potentially cause damage to foundations, especially if the tree is planted too close to a building. As the roots grow, they can exert pressure on foundations, leading to cracks and structural issues. Additionally, the tree's roots may seek out moisture from the soil, which can exacerbate soil movement and affect the stability of nearby structures. Proper planning and distance from foundations can help mitigate these risks.
