Bowing & Cracked Walls, in practice
A wall bowing inward is being pushed by saturated soil, not pulled by settlement. That means the repair has two halves — restraining the wall, and reducing the pressure on it. Doing only the first leaves the load exactly where it was.
Horizontal cracking part way up a block wall is the classic sign and it is more serious than the vertical cracks people worry about. It means the wall is hinging, and it is worth acting on rather than watching.
