What is a "pier"?

A pier is a vertical support structure that extends from the ground or a foundation into the air, commonly used to support a building, bridge, or other construction. Piers can be made from various materials, such as concrete, stone, or steel, and are typically rectangular or square in shape. They help distribute weight and provide stability to the structures they support. Piers are often used in situations where the ground is not stable enough to support heavy loads, making them essential in both architectural and engineering designs.
