I have a small run-in barn, fairly old, with one form-poured-concrete wall which is leaning out. The poured wall is about 2-3' high and sits on some medium rocks which probably were put in the bottom of a trench, the bottom of which is about 12 below grade. Short of redoing the whole thing properly, I was thinking of undercutting the inside portion of the wall below the lowest rocks and using some braces and jacks to coax the wall vertical. ( I might need to move it 2" at the top.) If I can move the wall back into place, I was going to make a form and pour some concrete under the adjusted foundation.
I had noticed that all 4 of the posts on the open side of the barn were leaning (and the bottoms rotten), so this took me back to the source of the post problem--the foundation wall.
