The main types are described, Features, Classification of soils , causes of deformations of buildings and structures on these soils , Recommendations for engineering surveys , and also gives the features of the stress-deformable state of bulk soils , their relationship with CM. Types and types of , design of foundations of small laying (ordinary, in truncated pits , from the blocks and from the piles , In the gardens, and so forth, and so forth. ). Describes the device of artificial bases, foundations of small deposits and piles, restoration of deformed buildings, geotechnical monitoring, examples from the experience of construction on embankment soils, in conclusion - some areas of scientific research on this problem. Most of the methods described in the book for the construction of foundations and foundations are widely applicable to other. Types of soils. Normative materials are given as of 01. 01. 2015. For engineering and technical workers of design, construction, as well as scientific, research organizations, students and teachers of construction specialties of Universities .
