Homeowners, builders, architects and building designers planning alterations, additions or underpinning to an existing building who need to know what the existing footings are.
An engineer digs a test hole directly next to the existing footing at your site to confirm what the footing is made of, its dimensions and the soil at its base, so the soil bearing capacity at the base of the existing footing can be determined. Useful before alterations, additions or underpinning, when the structural design depends on the existing footings.
