DEEP FOUNDATION==>>
Deep foundation are those in which the depth of the foundation is very large i comparison to its width.. Deep foundation are not constructed by ordinary methods of open pit excavations.
TYPE OF DEEP FOUNDATION==>>
1==> PILE FOUNDATION
2==> PIER FOUNDATION
3==> CAISSON FOUNDATION
PILE FOUNDATION==>> Pile foundation is that type of foundation in which the loads are taken to a low level by means of vertical members which may be of timber , concrete or steel...
PIER FOUNDATION==>> A pier foundation consists of a cylindrical column of large diameter to support and transfer large super imposed loads to the firm strata below..
The difference between pile foundation and pier foundation lies in the method of construction.Though pile foundation transfer the load through friction or bearing , pier foundation transfer the loads only through bearing.
CAISSON FOUNDATION==>> Well foundation or caissons are box like structure circular or rectangular which are sunk from the surface of either land or water to the desired depth.
They are much larger diameter than pier foundations.
Use of well foundation
=> Wharves , quay walls , docks.
=> Bridge piers and abutments in rivers, lakes etc.
=>Large water front structures such as pump houses , subjected to heavy vertical and horizontal loads.
==>> Well foundation are hollow from inside , which may filled with sand , ans are plugged at the bottom. The load is transferred through the perimeter wall, called steining.
This foundation are not use for buildings construction...
TYPES OF SHALLOW FOUNDATION==>>
Deep foundation are those in which the depth of the foundation is very large i comparison to its width.. Deep foundation are not constructed by ordinary methods of open pit excavations.
