About Building Settlement
Building settlement refers to the gradual movement or sinking of a structure due to soil consolidation, foundation issues, or uneven load distribution.
Structural engineering evaluates the causes of settlement, assesses potential risks, and designs solutions to stabilize and support affected buildings.
