Download or read book Raft Foundation Design And Analysis With A Practical Approach written by Sharat Chandra Gupta and published by New Age International. This book was released on 2007 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available Textbooks, Handbooks, Various Publications And Papers Give Widely Different Approaches For Design Of Raft Foundations. These Approaches Make Their Own Assumptions And Deal With Ideal Raft, Symmetrical In Shape And Loading. In Actual Practice Rafts Are Rarely So. A Structural Designer Engaged In The Design Of Raft Foundations Finds It Hard To Select The Method That Can Be Carried Out Within The Time And Cost Available For Design And Give Adequate Safety And Economy.This Book Covers Complete Design Of Raft Foundations Including Piled Rafts, Starting From Their Need, Type, All The Approaches Suggested So Far In Published Literature, Effect Of Assumptions Made And Values Of Variables Selected, On The Design Values Of Stresses, And Brings Out The Limitations Of These Approaches Using Actually Constructed Rafts.Results Of Studies Carried Out By The Author Are Summarised And Final Recommendations Given. Solved Examples Are Included For Each Of The Methods Recommended. Comprehensive Treatment Of The Subject Makes The Book Helpful To The Design Engineers, Engineering Teachers, Students And Even Those Who Are Engaged In Further Research.

Download or read book Elastic Analysis of Raft Foundations written by J. A. Hemsley and published by Thomas Telford. This book was released on 1998 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph principally considers the flexural analysis of plain raft foundations and related ground-bearing structures such as strip footings and pad foundations. The text explains and illustrates the basic principles of this difficult subject, and will be of interest to specialist design engineers and to those engaged in advanced study or research.

Download or read book Tall Building Foundation Design written by Harry G. Poulos and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-07-20 with total page 761 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive guide to the design of foundations for tall buildings. After a general review of the characteristics of tall buildings, various foundation options are discussed followed by the general principles of foundation design as applied to tall buildings. Considerable attention is paid to the methods of assessment of the geotechnical design parameters, as this is a critical component of the design process. A detailed treatment is then given to foundation design for various conditions, including ultimate stability, serviceability, ground movements, dynamic loadings and seismic loadings. Basement wall design is also addressed. The last part of the book deals with pile load testing and foundation performance measurement, and finally, the description of a number of case histories. A feature of the book is the emphasis it places on the various stages of foundation design: preliminary, detailed and final, and the presentation of a number of relevant methods of design associated with each stage.
