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

this is achieved by controlled weakening of sacrificial outer parts of the car‚ while strengthening and increasing the rigidity of the inner part of the body of the car‚ making the passenger cabin into a ’safety cell ’‚ by using more reinforcing beams and higher strength steels. Impact energy that does reach the ’safety cell ’‚ is spread over as wide an area as possible to reduce its deformation. The crumple zone was originally made by an inventor called Bela Barenyi who came to the conclusion

Suspension bridge – A parabola What is meant by suspension bridge? A suspension bridge is a type of bridge in which the deck (the load-bearing portion) is hung below suspension cables on vertical suspenders. Outside Tibet and Bhutan‚ where the first examples of this type of bridge were built in the 15th century‚ this type of bridge dates from the early 19th century. Bridges without vertical suspenders have a long history in many mountainous parts of the world. Structure of suspension bridge
