Question

Foundation engineering makes use of different ways of extracting and quantifying the data necessary for the designer to take them into account at the time of design and execution and, thus, seek the best solutions to develop their work.


A. For the elaboration of a subsoil investigation plan, what elements should be considered?

 

B. Identify the four most commonly used types of welds.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Concept-

Foundation engineering-

Soil mechanics, structural engineering, and project serviceability criteria are all applied in foundation engineering while designing and constructing foundations for onshore, offshore, and on-land structures.

For the design and construction of the foundation system, foundation engineering integrates soil mechanics with structural demands and project serviceability criteria.

The structural components known as foundation elements or systems convey different load combinations from the superstructure to the underpinning soils or rocks.
