Foundations
Behavior, Design, and Justification
The foundation is generally always embedded in the ground and is part of what is usually called the “substructure”, the part that supports the “superstructure”. In current practice, geotechnical engineers use shallow foundations when the correct soil is nearly flush: 1–2 m with respect to the surface of the finished terrain, which is equivalent to having a low D/B ratio. Rafts allow the loads of the structure to be distributed over the ground. Rafts can be flexible or rigid. The solution in which deep foundations are used is indispensable when the “good” soil is found below significant depth. Although this solution is far more expensive than foundations on footings and rafts, in certain cases, it is necessary, unless a soil improvement solution is used as an alternative solution.
