unk foundations

Foundation is called the set of structural elements of a building whose mission is to transmit its loads or elements supported on it to the ground; distributing them in such a way that they do not exceed their admissible pressure or produce zone loads. because the resistance of the ground is; generally; less than that of the pillars or walls that it supports; the contact area between the soil and the foundation must be proportionally larger than the supported elements; except on very coherent rocky soils. the foundation is important because it is the group of elements that support the superstructure. The stability of a building depends to a large extent on the type of terrain on which it stands.
