The large majority of slab-on-ground foundations will develop what are called corner cracks or wedge cracks. The name comes from the fact that these cracks develop at or very close to the outside corners of the foundation and frequently form a wedge at the corner.
These cracks do not indicate anything unusual about the foundation.
This is a concrete repair and not a foundation repair.
How do I write it?
Thanks.

The foundation appears to be performing the function intended
2-
Structural movement and/or settling noted, however, the foundation is supporting the structure at this time

Signs of structural movement noted, suggest that an expert in this field be consulted for further evaluation of the structure and to provide suggestions as to what, if any, corrective actions should be taken
