A pocket, also known as a "beam pocket," is a recessed area in a masonry foundation wall that is designed to support the ends of a beam or girder. It is typically sized to match the dimensions of the beam and is created during the construction of the wall. Neither a seal, cap, nor plate would be suitable for supporting the ends of a girder in a foundation wall.
