Mainmark: With unique climates and landscapes, homes in Australia and New Zealand face diverse ground conditions that can cause subsidence, affect building foundations and result in structural issues. While most issues are due to unstable ground, extreme weather conditions including drought and floods can be common contributors to subsidence. Other factors such as leaking pipes or inferior concrete foundations can also be a cause.

When Offset Developments, a residential building company based in Christchurch, began construction on a four-unit complex in Christchurch, it encountered a significant challenge when it came to laying the foundations. The water table was only 1.2m below the surface, contributing to the very soft ground conditions. After receiving a geotechnical report, the company was advised it needed to place a raft under the slab to protect the site from possible subsidence, soil liquefaction or other issues that may arise due to the weaknesses of the ground.
