Fondazioni

Fondazioni, or foundations, are the structural elements used to support and transmit the load of a building to the ground. They are typically placed underground and designed based on the building’s weight and the soil's characteristics. Their main purpose is to ensure stability, prevent settling, and distribute forces evenly, safeguarding the structure from potential damage. Foundations vary in type—such as shallow or deep—depending on factors like soil conditions, building size, and design requirements. Properly designed fondazioni are critical for the safety and longevity of any construction project.
