BASIC CIVIL FONDATION BY CIVIL1ST SEM.ppt

This document provides an overview of foundations for civil engineering structures. It defines foundations as the substructure located below the plinth level that forms the base for any structure. The main objectives of a foundation are to distribute structural loads over a large area, support the structure, and provide stability. The two main types of foundations are shallow foundations, which are less than or equal to their width in depth, and deep foundations like pile foundations that extend deeper into the ground. Shallow foundations include isolated footings for columns and combined footings, while deep foundations commonly use piles that are inserted into the ground through methods such as jacking or using drop hammers.

Foundation
Foundation • Introduction : • A structure essentially consists of two parts, namely the super structure which is above the plinth level and the substructure which is below the plinth level. • Substructure is otherwise known as the foundation and this forms the base for any structure. Generally about 30% of the total construction cost is spent on the foundation. • The soil on which the foundation rests is called the “foundation soil”. • Objectives of a foundation : A foundation is provided for the following purposes: • To distribute the total load coming on the structure on a larger area. • To support the structures. • To give enough stability to the structures against various disturbing forces, such as wind and rain. • To prepare a level surface for concreting and masonry work.
Foundation… • Types of foundation : The two main types of foundation are : • Shallow foundation (spread foundation) and • Deep foundation Types of Shallow foundation : • Isolated footing (single footing, Column footing) • Combined footing Types of Deep foundation : • Pile foundation • Pier foundation Types of Pile foundation : • Friction pile • Load bearing pile Note : Under-reamed piles is a type of load bearing pile
Foundation… • Shallow foundation (spread foundation): • Depth of foundation is less than or equal to its width. • Isolated footing (single footing, column footing): • In framed structures where several columns are to be constructed, isolated footings can be adopted. • The columns involved can be provided with masonry or concrete footing. • If masonry footing is provided, steps are given and the foundation area is thus increased so that the stresses developed at the base is within the limit. • In case of masonry footing, the projection of each step must be ½ brick thick and each step is made of 1 or 2 bricks put together. • Concrete can be moulded to any shape and hence a concrete footing may be a sloping one to provide sufficient spread.
Foundation… • Isolated footing (single footing, column footing)…
Foundation… • Isolated footing (single footing, column footing)…
Foundation… • Isolated footing (single footing, column footing)… wall footing
Foundation… • Combined footing: • This type of footing is adopted when the space between two columns is so small that the foundation for individual columns will overlap. • Combined footings are proportioned in such a way that the centre of gravity of the loads coincides with the centre of gravity of the foundation. Hence these footings have either a trapezoidal or a rectangular shape. Footing : Footings are structural members used to support columns and walls and to transmit and distribute their loads to the soil in such a way that the load bearing capacity of the soil is not exceeded. Also excessive settlement, differential settlement or rotation are prevented and adequate safety against overturning or sliding is maintained.
Foundation… • Pile : • A slender, structural member consisting steel or concrete or timber. • It is installed in the ground to transfer the structural loads to soils at some significant depth below the base of the structure.
Foundation… Pile caps are thick slabs used to tie a group of piles together to support and transmit column loads to the piles.
Foundation… • Deep foundation : • Deep foundation consists of pile and pier foundations. • This consists in carrying down through the soil a huge masonry cylinder which may be supported by the sides of soil or may be supported on solid rock (hard stratum). • Pile foundation : • Pile is an element of construction used as foundation. It may be driven in the ground vertically or with some inclination to transfer the load safely.
Foundation… • Pile foundation… • Loads are supported in two ways. • If the load is supported by the effect of friction between the soil and the pile skin, it is called friction pile. • Friction piles may be made of cast iron, cement concrete, timber, steel, wrought iron and composite materials. • If the load is supported by resting the pile on a very hard stratum, it is called load bearing pile. • Load bearing piles are steel sheet piles, concrete piles and timber piles. • Piles may be cast-in-situ or precast. • They may be cased or uncased.

TYPES OF PILES • Concrete Piles i) Cast-In-Situ Concrete Piles a) Cased cast-in-situ b) Uncased cast-in-situ ii) Precast Concrete Piles • Steel Piles i) H-Piles ii) Cylindrical piles iii) Tapered piles • Timber Piles • Composite Piles
TYPES OF PILE CONSTRUCTION 1. Displacement Piles It cause the soil to be displaced radially as well as vertically as pile shaft is driven or jacked into the ground. b) Non Displacement Piles (Replacement piles) It cause the soil to be removed and the resulting hole filled with concrete or a pre cast concrete pile is dropped into the hole and grouted in. Displacement Pile Non Displacement pile
METHOD OF INSTALLATION • Dropping Weight or Drop Hammers - commonly used method of insertion of displacement piles • Diesel Hammers -Most suitable to drive pile in non cohesive granular soil • Vibratory Hammers or vibratory method of pile driving -very effective in driving piles through non cohesive granular soil • Jacking Method Of Insertion 4 November 2010
Pile installation using Drop Hammer
Pile Driving Rig - temporarily support the pile that being driven and to support the pile hammer.
Jacking Method Of Insertion • Jacked Piles are most commonly used in underpinning structures • By excavating underneath a structure short lengths of pile can be inserted and jacked into the ground using the underside of the existing structure as a reaction.
