Presentation Transcript
Foundation
- The foundation system of building, its substructure, is a critical link in transmission of building loads to the ground. Foundation is a structure built to transfer the dead loads and live loads or weight of
building to the
material below.
CLASSIFICATION
- Foundation are generally classified as either deep or shallow. The depth bearing area of shallow foundation generally is no deeper than about the width of the bearing surface. Deep foundation provide support for a structure by transferring the loads to competent soil and rock at stone depth below the structure.
Shallow foundation
- Shallow foundation can be either footing or pad. They consist reinforced concrete slabs formed directly on a prepared soil base. Footing may be spread, combined, or continuous. Terzaghi and peck define that shallow foundation as the footing width equal to or greater than its depth.
Spread footing
- Spread footing They typically 0.9 to 2.4 to 3m square. Their bearing surface is typically less than 2.5 times their width (<2.5B).
Combine footing
- Combine footing are similar to spread footing but support two or more columns
Continuous or Strip
- Continuous or Strip footing is an elongated shallow foundation that typically support as single row of column or a wall or other type of strip loading.

Load limitations
Shallow foundations can
cope with compression
and inclined loads
Shallow foundations are
limited in tension capacity
by the footing weight

Deep Foundation
- It is opposite to shallow foundation. It has been developed to increase bearing capacity/stability and reduce settlement by build them deeper than shallow one due to building going larger and heavier.It can be divided into 3 types as details later on.
