Tips on choosing the right foundation for that building and soil type...

in #architecture6 years ago

Foundation is the lowest parts of buildings and structures,usually below the gpile2.jpground level, that is serve to transfer.the loads from the buildings or structures to a natural or artificial bedding.
The type of foundation chosen will depend on the following:
a. Geological engineering and hydrogelogical conditions at the construction site
b. The purpose and design of the building or structure.
c. The magnitude of the load imposed on the foundation
d. And the production capacities of the construction organization.
The depth of the foundation is chosen according to the
a. Properties and nature of the soil strata
b. The ground water level(with allowance for variations during the construction and use of the structure)
c. The magnitude and the nature of the loads acting on the foundation
d. The depth of underground communication lines and of the foundations under machines and equipment
e. The climatic characteristics of the construction region
The chosen depth of the foundation must be sufficient to ensure the stability of the bedding and to eliminate the possibility of the earth heaving during freezing and settling during thawing.
