Re: Opinions on block wall foundation
Looks to me like the eccentrically loaded top block is rotating due to that eccentric load (the sill at, and overhanging, the edge of the block).
When the top block rotates, it kicks the next block(s) down in the other direction, which creates a bow back in at the next block down then again back straight at the bottom course.
At some point ... (whenever that may be) ... the top block could rotate enough to kick the other blocks out ... and that would not be a good thing. Nope.
I would definitely call for a structural engineer to design appropriate repairs.
