A method of forming a building's foundation comprises providing in the ground in which the foundation is to be formed from the level of that ground (10) a trench (12) the depth of which is generally equal to the depth of a foundation beam to be subsequently formed in the trench and prior to forming the beam providing piles (14) extending from the trench bottom at spaced intervals therealong, the beam being formed by placing the reinforcement (14, 18) in the trench (12), connecting the reinforcement (16, 18) with the piles (14) and thereafter filling the trench (12) substantially to its top with concrete (22) which, on setting forms a beam integral with the piles (14). It is preferable that the trench sides converge downwardly. |
