Introduction: A deep foundation is a type of foundation distinguished from shallow foundations by the depth they are embedded into the ground. There are many reasons a geotechnical engineer would recommend a deep foundation over a shallow foundation‚ but some of the common reasons are very large design loads‚ a poor soil at shallow depth‚ or site constraints (like property lines). There are different terms used to describe different types of deep foundations including the pile (which is analogous

INTRODUCTION 1. OVERVIEW OF FOUNDATIONS The word foundation is derived from a latin word fondare meaning to set or ground on something solid. A foundation is that part of a structure which transmits the weight of the structure to the ground in a manner that the soil below does not fail in shear and the settlement is within the safe limits. Foundations are broadly classified into two categories: • Shallow Foundation • Deep Foundation A shallow foundation‚ according to Terzaghi

buildings use deep foundations even though it is expensive and also time consuming. On the other hand‚ shallow foundations are the complete opposite; they are relatively inexpensive and take up less time in building. So why do engineers recommend deep foundations over shallow foundations despite the vast differences that each have? Deep foundations are embedded deep into the ground so that the ground has a better grip on the structure. There are many types of deep foundations‚ one example being

The Elements of Science Fiction in Asimov ’s Foundation The Elements of Science Fiction in Asimov ’s Foundation [This essay explores those characteristics of the novel Foundation‚ which are peculiar to the genre of Science Fiction.] The most fundamental and obvious element of Science Fiction is its dependence on imagined technological advancements. The SF writer exploits the gap between scientific theory and practice to create a world‚ or at least circumstances‚ very different from our

FOUNDATION is the lowest supporting layer of a structure. * Purpose: Transfer the building load to the soil. * The size of the foundation is determined by the weight of the building and the load bearing capabilities of the soil. * When the load bearing capabilities of the soil is low‚ a footing is usually used. Types of Foundation 1. Shallows Foundations * Shallow foundations are those founded near to the finished ground surface; generally where the founding depth (Df) is less than
