I pass by this construction site everyday.
About a week after the forms are removed I noticed two large cracks, both starting at the very top of the foundation wall (approx. 15ft apart) and ending diagonally away from each other down to the top of the footing.
Turns out the excavator caused the damage by compacting the earth into the side of the foundation wall as it drove by. The bulge in the last picture is after they pulled it back some. I heard it was a lot worse then what is shown in the picture.
They started framing other day.
