Abstract
The possibility of predicting the tilt of structures by special static-sounding data processing is examined. A criterion is proposed for the onset of tilting and non-uniform deformations of the foundation. The sequence in processing the results of static sounding in order to determine the direction and magnitude of the tilt of a structure is shown for a practical example.
