dc.description.abstract |
Foundations play a vital role in load transfer. Various load conditions pose many
different challenges which are numerated by engineers. The primary design concerns are
settlement and bearing capacity. Changes in soil moisture can cause expansive clay to
swell and shrink. It is necessary that a foundation is not loaded beyond its bearing
capacity or the foundation will "fail".
The foundation is the structural component that transfers load from the building to the
supporting ground. The supporting ground could be soil, rock or seabed. The foundation
basically holds the building up so it will not sink to the supporting ground. It also holds
the structure so it will not be blown away by strong winds like tornadoes. |
