Abstract
Characteristic features of the construction and design of a building, the section of its location, and basic causes of deformation are discussed. The procedure used to strengthen the upper part of the foundations by the installation of tension rods consisting of vertical angle brackets, longitudinal channels, turnbuckles, and anchors, as well as reinforced-concrete belts-walls with effective longitudinal reinforcement in the upper and lower sections, and distributing horizontal and vertical reinforcement and anchors is described.
