Deep Foundations: A Strong and Secure Foundation Solution for Structures
Deep foundations are methods used to transfer the loads of buildings to deeper ground layers beneath the foundation level that have better load-bearing properties. These foundations are used when the current soil beneath the foundation does not have sufficient bearing capacity for the structure. Deep foundations provide a reliable solution when surface soil conditions are inadequate.
Deep foundations are typically preferred in the construction of heavy structures. For tall buildings, bridges, and industrial structures that carry heavy loads, the surface soil may not be sufficient. In these cases, deep foundations are used to transfer the loads to deeper layers. Additionally, in areas with high groundwater levels, the load-bearing capacity of the surface soil may be insufficient. Deep foundations help overcome such issues and securely support the structure.
The advantages of deep foundations include increasing the load-bearing capacity of the ground, preventing soil compaction and subsidence issues. These foundations can be used in various soil types and are highly beneficial for large projects. Furthermore, due to the flexibility in their application, deep foundations can ensure a secure base in many different ground conditions.
Bored piles are one of the most commonly used methods among deep foundations. Steel or concrete piles are placed into the ground at a deeper level, increasing the structure’s load-bearing capacity. Proper design and application of deep foundations ensure the safety and durability of buildings. Therefore, it is important for deep foundations to be executed by a professional team.
In conclusion, deep foundations are an important solution to increase the durability of structures and ensure their long lifespan. In areas with weak soil conditions or heavy construction projects, deep foundations allow the structure to rest on solid foundations, creating a safe living environment.
