existing foundation wall abutting a new found. wall
(OP)
we are putting an addition on an existing building with no basement. the addition will have a basement. how do we reinforce below the existing footer (aprox 3 ft below grade) and not diturb earth below; so we can dig for the new footer (approx. 12 ft below grade). the new block wall will need to be flush against existing block wall above grade. i need a detail.
thanks in advance!

Pull basement away from existing footing to get out of the influence zone. Construct a 4' to 6' wide section of slab on grade then start the basement.
