Awareness of the soil types and their geotechnical parameters are very important as the structural engineers and civil engineers. When designing or during construction, it is very important to know about the types of...
Shallow foundation failure due to the failure of the soil has discussed in this article. In addition to the soil failure, the foundation could fail due to the failure in a structural capacity. In...
Borehole investigation and borehole layout planning are done to get the recommendation for foundations from the geotechnical engineer. Borehole investigations are done to get an idea about the underneath soil layers. The recommendation for...
The design and construction of tunnel junctions is a challenging task for the designers and construction team. Let’s discuss this in detail. A tunnel is an underground structure or space created for providing access...
Ground improvements are done specially for shallow foundations when they are constructed in weak soils. Based on the classification of soil under the foundation, the type of improvement is selected. The type of loadings...
