Pad footing for kitchen extension aka single storey?

Extension on the upper floor will be more tricky though.

Suggest u seek advice from expert(professional structural engineer) on type of foundation required for double storey extension.

In layman term, piling is required for foundation before pile cap, then followed by ground beam, slab and columns. That is to ensure no major cracks will appear in the near future due to ground settlement.

But then what is done is done. Just have your fingers crossed and pray hard that no major cracks will appear in the coming years.
