Content(s)

Part 1: Introduction to Foundations

• Type of foundation
• General methods and necessary verifications
• Regulatory texts and standards in force

Part 2: Surface Foundations

• Load-bearing capacity
• Settlements
• Justifications for surface foundations

Part 3: Deep Foundations

Part 4: Semi-Deep Foundations

• Justifications for semi-profoundations

TD

Sessions 1 to 3: Design of surface foundations in bearing capacity

• TD1 : Method c-phi for friction floors
• TD2 : c-phi method for coherent soils
• TD3 : Design with in situ tests

Sessions 4 and 5: Settlement of surface foundations

• TD4 : Oedometric method
• TD5 : Pressure measurement method

Sessions 6 and 7: Design of deep foundations

• TD6 : Design with static penetrometer
• negative friction
• TD7 : Design with pressure gauge - group effect

• Insulated pile under axial loading
• Insulated pile under side loading
• Pile group
• Justifications for deep foundations

Prerequisites :
field tests
laboratory tests
soil mechanics (stress and water in the soil, pushing/stopping,
rupture patterns,...)
