Abstract
Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having a base (e.g., a monocrystalline silicon wafer), and having memory cells over the base and along channel-material-pillars. A conductive structure is between the memory cells and the base. The channel-material-pillars are coupled with the conductive structure. A foundational structure extends into the base and projects upwardly to a level above the conductive structure. The foundational structure locks the conductive structure to the base to provide foundational support to the conductive structure.
