In this work, experimental studies were conducted on the effect of vibrational influences from highways on the state of the foundation structures of a five-story residential building in Astrakhan. The studies were combined with an examination of the geo-base, foundations, and foundation of a multi-story brick residential building. Studies have shown that over four years, damaged building structures underwent significant changes due to increased vibration from the highway, and the rate of deformation in the supporting structures prove their emergency state. It is confirmed that the main factors affecting the magnitude of vibration acceleration of the building foundation structure are: structural type of the building; distance from the building to the source of seismic waves; longitudinal wave propagation velocity in the soil layer.
