Foundation Design definition

Foundation Design. We will provide recommendations for foundation design, including our evaluation of the suitability of shallow foundation support, and the allowable soil bearing pressure for support of shallow foundations. Estimates of settlement will be provided. If an intermediate foundation system (aggregate piers) is necessary, we will provide pertinent recommendations. Development of recommendations for design of a deep foundation system (piles) will likely require supplemental exploration consisting of deeper borings and possibly including rock coring. • Seismic Design: Based on the data from the subsurface exploration, we will provide a Site Class (International Building Code), mapped spectral response accelerations (SS, S1), and design spectral response accelerations (SDS, SD1).
