This manual presents guidance for selecting and designing foundations and associated features for buildings, retaining structures, and machinery. Foundations for hydraulic structures are not included. Foundation design differs considerably from design of other elements of a structure because of the interaction between the structure and the supporting medium (soil and/or rock).

ENGINEERING PROPERTIES OF SOIL AND ROCK Compaction characteristics of soils Swelling, shrinkage, and collapsibility Coefficient of at-rest earth pressure . Field measurements of relative density and consistency Settlement of foundations on clay Settlement of cohesionless soils Eliminating, reducing, or coping with settlement CHAPTER 7. DEWATERING AND GROUNDWATER CONTROL Slopes in soils presenting special problems Detailed analyses of slope stability 9. SELECTION OF FOUNDATION TYPE Foundation-selection considerations Cost estimates and final selection . 10.
