Foundation strengthening addresses capacity and deformation of the ground and foundations; tilt correction adjusts a building's inclination. They may be coordinated, but settlement stabilization, tilt correction and structural strengthening have different objectives.
Define the problem first
Ongoing settlement requires investigation of its cause and trend. Existing tilt must be considered alongside foundation and structural conditions. Stopping further movement does not itself correct the tilt.
Why coordinated work may be needed
Foundations, superstructure and construction-stage forces interact. Investigation and scheme development establish whether correction needs foundation or structural work; another project's method cannot simply be copied.
Information for an initial discussion
Separate settlement, tilt and crack records, and describe building use, previous alterations and current occupancy. Agree the objectives before discussing methods and costs.
