The Cabin is Moving

Part way through the month, while work to Raise the Path continues, I notice that the cabin is showing signs of movement. That's a bit of a worry as, with hindsight, it appears that the Underframe was designed to be laid on the usual concrete base and not one supported on a limited number of piles. I take a couple of photos and send them to the supplier.
At first sight you might think that the decking plank is rising. However, from a different angle it can de seen that the front of the veranda is dropping.
Here it can be seen that the end timber is see-sawing on the paving slab, with the end near the cabin slightly raised while the other end has dropped, except for the end of the decking plank, which has tried to remain at its original height.
