Does a foundation need different design for a corner allotment?

The core engineering approach stays the same, but a corner block genuinely brings extra site-specific factors — two street boundaries with their own setback rules, sometimes different soil conditions across the site, and additional council considerations around sightlines and drainage.

Your engineer’s design accounts for whatever your specific corner block presents, rather than a standard mid-block foundation approach applied without adjustment.
