A comprehensive course that will elevate your understanding of the subject through simple approach and practical examples.
Chapter 1
Soil Structure Interaction
This chapter aims to providing a great background of the soil structure interaction concepts since understanding the intricate interplay between soil and structures is crucial for ensuring the safety and performance of our built environment..
Chapter 2
Block Foundation
Block machine foundation is a versatile and robust engineering structure designed to support heavy machinery. It can be constructed either on the surface or embedded into the soil , making it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
Chapter 3
Block Foundation Response
This chapter deals with the solution of the equations of motion of the block foundation system. It will also provide an understanding of the methods to calculate the maximum dynamic response of the foundation system.
Chapter 4
Pile Foundation
Pile foundation are very commonly used to support equipment foundations when the soil bearing capacity is weak. This chapter starts with the single pile problem and then extend the concepts to account for ple groups.
Chapter 5
Pile Foundation Response
Dynamic response of a deep foundation system will be discussed in this chapter. Staring with the response of a single pile, the solution will then be extended to accound for the dynamic response of a pile group.
