Do you plan to extend the 1st floor in a later date ? If you do, then you will need piling.

Else, a 3' x 3' x 4'D footing will do with a cross foot beam.

Yup, its a smaller pilling machine than those use in construction but the sound and vibration is deafening.

Crack some of the neighbor wall too (adjacent one) those across the street is okay.

Hi,
Would like to ask related question to this.
My house extension is as below. The areas I marked with yellow will be double storey extension, the others are not, but will support RC slab. Contractor plan for piling at point A, B and some other points further away. Problem is, neighbour has kitchen extension that is next to point A( he didn't do piling). I am worried piling will cause cracks in my neighbour's wall. Contractor says he will do cantilever from neighbour's footing pad. But I am still worried. Can I get away with not doing piling for point A, only wide footing?

Doesnt matter neighbor have kitchen extension or do piling or not ... when you whack that pile in ... KLF your neighbor wall will have crack.

Since its just an extension with rc slab, footing it self is enough, A + B. Number 4 how ? Pile ?

From B to number 4 is around 14'+ which is quite a distance.

What is KLF?
Between B and 4, there is another piling point. There is soil settling in the region, as the car porch area also had some tiles issue. So contractor gonna go ahead with piling (with cantilever at point A). I am just praying the damage, if it does occur,  will not be major.

My bad. KLF (KonLanFirm)

Cantilever @ A souldnt be a problem since just a rc slab on top provided not going to be future 2nd floor there.

Piling between B and 4 will effect your neighbor ? depends on pile size, depth and luck.

Have you inform neighbor you gonna do piling ? Cakap dulu (baik baik) inform if there is crack please let you know and you will get contractor to repair and repaint.
