The primary technical treatment for rotating and sliding buildings is: cutting the building at a certain horizontal level, separating it from the foundation to become a movable "heavy object."

At the building's cut-off point, install a replacement beam to form a movable underpinning; set up a new foundation at the placement site; install walking track beams between the old and new foundations; mount the walking mechanism, apply external force to move the building; after positioning, remove the walking mechanism and connect the upper and lower structures, thus completing the sliding.

The essence of building relocation is to transform the building into a movable box, thus, certain requirements must be met for the structure. Masonry structures cannot be relocated or the cost of relocation exceeds the building cost; typically, it's frame structures that are moved.
