Military and engineering achievements — 'He went out and made war against the Philistines, and broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in the territory of Ashdod and among the Philistines' (וַיֵּצֵא וַיִּלָּחֶם בַּפְּלִשְׁתִּים וַיִּפְרֹץ אֶת־חוֹמַת גַּת וְאֶת־חוֹמַת יַבְנְאֵל וְאֶת־חוֹמַת אַשְׁדּוֹד). Uzziah defeats major Philistine cities and establishes settlements. The demolition of walls and settlement of territories reflects aggressive expansion.
