CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION TO FOUNDATIONS The soil beneath structures responsible for carrying the loads is the FOUNDATION. The general misconception is that the structural element which transmits the load to the soil (such as a footing) is the foundation. The figure below clarifies this point.
TYPES OF FOUNDATIONS Foundations can be can be categorized into basically two types: Shallow and Deep. Shallow Foundations: These types of foundations are so called because they are placed at a shallow depth (relative to their dimensions) beneath the soil surface. Their depth may range from the top soil surface to about 3 times their breadth (about 6 meters). They include footings (spread and combined), and soil retaining structures (retaining walls, sheet piles, excavations and reinforced earth). There are several others of course. Deep Foundations: The most common of these types of foundations are piles. They are called deep because the are embedded very deep (relative to their dimensions) into the soil. Their depths may run over several 10s of meters. They are usually used when the top soil layer have low bearing capacity.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS To perform satisfactorily, foundations must carry the loads (and moments) and have two main characteristics: 1. Be safe against overall shear failure (Bearing Capacity Failure). 2. Not undergo excessive displacement (Settlement). These conditions will insure that the foundation i.e. the soil is safe and can carry the loads without major problems. Therefore, when designing foundations, these two characteristic must be satisfied. In addition to satisfying the conditions for the foundation, the structural members (concrete, steel and/or wood) must be able to transfer the load to the soil without failing. In the case of concrete, two basic conditions must be satisfied: 1. No shear failure: This is satisfied by providing an adequate thickness of concrete. 2. No tension failure: This is satisfied by providing adequate steel reinforcement. This course covers the analysis and design (geotechnical and concrete design) of the basic and most commonly used types of foundations including both shallow and deep foundations. Other types of foundations are covered in the follow-up course, "Foundation Engineering 2".
The following types of foundations will be covered in Foundation Engineering 1 FOOTINGS

Table 1. Soil Types and Foundation Consideration Foundation
Soil Type
Type
Reason(s) for use
SAND
Footings
Easy to construct and economical
Retaining Structures
Must be used since sand can not support themselves
Deep Foundations (Piles)
Uses for friction resistance but low in bearing capacity
Footings
Economic but may have problem with bearing capacity in saturated clays
Retaining Structures
Clays are self-supportive up to a certain height (critical). Must be used if height increases beyond the critical.
Deep Foundations (Piles)
If bearing capacity is low, piles may be driven to rock. May change formation of clay.
CLAY
Trouble Areas Bearing capacity may be a problem but in most cases it is sufficient. Excessive settlement in wet and loose deposits Confining pressure is usually low Low bearing capacity. Generally low shear strength when wet. High consolidation in soft clays Swelling is possible Over-consolidated clays may contain cracks and fissures.

Nature of problem
SAND
Settlement
Loose sands must be compacted Lowering water table may result in sand densification.
Bearing Capacity
Compaction increases c and Use deep foundations
Consolidation
Lowering water table
Clay
Possible solution
and thus bearing capacity
Pre-loading Drive pile to rock Bearing Capacity
Compaction Use deep foundations
Expansion or Swelling
Treat or stabilize soil Maintain constant water table Alter soil nature (similar to stabilization) Include swell pressure in design
