Foundation is an integral part of any structural system that helps maintain the stability of the structure above. Type of foundation depends upon the total load from the building and the type of soil below. With a booming infrastructure industry, access to good soil conditions or even topography for the construction is not always available. Engineers have to deal with problematic soils that causes problems with every changing climate or undergoes excessive settlement or fails under relatively low stress. To build on such soils one has to employ wide range of soil improvement techniques such as soil stabilization, stone columns etc. Also such soil poses difficulties with stability in excavations, stability in embankments, retention of earth etc.
At LSS, we give utmost importance to the soil structure interactions and are bent on providing economical and rational solutions by working with the environment than against it.
