Foundation piers are structural elements that are installed deep into the ground and are used to provide structural support for a building or structure. Typically, foundation piers are composed of concrete and steel and are installed by driving them into the ground with a vibrating hammer.
They are typically placed underneath areas where the existing soil has poor compaction or strength. Foundation piers can prevent a structure from settling, sinking, and becoming unstable due to shifting soils.
