    The document discusses deep foundations and pile foundations. It begins by defining what a foundation is and its primary functions of supporting and anchoring the superstructure, transmitting loads safely into the earth, and responding to soil and groundwater conditions. It then discusses factors that affect foundation design like loads, soil conditions, and ground movements. Next, it covers classification of foundation systems including shallow foundations like isolated, combined, and strap footings. The remainder discusses selecting and designing foundation systems by considering a soil investigation and factors like building loads, subsurface conditions, construction risks, and code requirements. It provides details on pile foundations, describing their design function of end bearing vs friction piles. Finally, it briefly outlines the construction process for installing different pile types.

    What is a_ FOUNDATION ?
    What is a_ FOUNDATION of a building ?

    • The foundation is the lowest


    division of a building—its
    substructure—constructed partly
    or wholly below the surface of the
    ground
    • Foundation is that part of the
    structure through which load is
    finally transmitted on the earth
    Primary Function_ FOUNDATION

    •Support and anchor the superstructure


    •Transmit loads safely into the earth
    •Critical link in the distribution and resolution of
    building loads
    •Respond to the varying conditions of soil, rock, and
    water below.
    Factors Affecting_ FOUNDATION

    •Dead loads
    •Live loads
    •Wind load
    •Ground movements of an earthquake
    •Pressure imposed by the surrounding soil mass
    •Groundwater

    The Foundation Investigation
    Why? - To ensure that the proper foundation is chosen based on the soil
    conditions, type of structure, and other factors.
    Who? - An engineer performs a foundation investigation,
    What? - Drafts a foundation report and develops a log of test borings
    How ? - Collecting information about the proposed construction site.
    •Previously drafted foundation reports,
    • Preliminary structure plans,
    •As-built plans,
    •Area’s historical seismicity information,
    •Historical subsurface conditions

    The Foundation Investigation


    • How?
    • subsurface drilling operation

    •Soil investigation

    Selecting And Designing The Type Of Foundation System For A Building

    The Foundation Investigation


    • Recommends the type of foundation that should be used to support the proposed structure, along with
    recommendations for bottom of footing elevations, pile type, and size and tip elevations.
    • In areas where seismic activity is a concern, recommendations for seismic design criteria should also be
    included.
    • A thorough foundation report typically also includes information about anticipated problems that may arise
    during construction, such as soil compaction, caving, variations in pile driving, and issues due to ground
    water.
    • Any problems that may impact construction that are included in the foundation report should be discussed
    with the contractor as soon as possible.
    Factors To Consider In Selecting And Designing The Type Of Foundation
    System For A Building

    The design of a foundation system requires


    professional analysis and design by a qualified
    structural engineer. When designing anything other
    than a single-family dwelling on stable soil, it is also
    advisable to have a geotechnical engineer undertake a
    • Pattern and magnitude of building loads subsurface investigation in order to determine the
    • Subsurface and groundwater conditions type and size of foundation system required for the
    • Topography of the site building design.
    • Impact on adjacent properties
    • Building code requirements Foundation Design Principles ~ the main
    • Construction method and risk objectives of foundation design are to ensure that the
    structural loads are transmitted to the subsoil(s)
    safely, economically and without any unacceptable
    movement during the construction period and
    throughout the anticipated life of the building or
    structure.
