Foundation Engineering for Difficult Subsoil Conditions
Throughout thirty years of professional practice in such difficult subsoil conditions as those encountered in the seismic area of Mexico City, the author has had the benefit of observing and designing many large foundations. The new concepts and working hypotheses given in this book are based on tis experience, in order to achieve better designs on a rational basis, reducing practical rules that in the past have resulted in poor performance of building foundations. In the engineering profession it is necessary to investigate continuously the physical laws of soil behavior and soil masses, to be able to eliminate the guesswork supported by empirical generalizations. Statistics, however, is a valuable research tool in investigating the general trend of the phenomena and an aid to establish theories and working hypotheses when deviations from the statistical laws established are understood and carefully observed.
