Shallow Foundations
Shallow foundations include what we call spread
footings. Examples of spread footings are:
– Isolated spread footing
– Combined Footing
– Strap footing
– Wall footing
Deep Foundations
Common type of deep foundations:
– Pile foundation : precast or cast-in-place
• Driven Piles
• Bored piles
– End-bearing pile
– Friction pile
– Combination of end bearing and friction
– Batter pile

Preliminary Analysis
For preliminary analysis, we may use presumptive
soil bearing capacities based on Chapter 3 of the
NSCP.

Two-way Shear
When the above condition is satisfied, then the thickness of the
footing is adequate, otherwise, increase the footing thickness.
Although providing shear reinforcement for footings failing in
shear is theoretical possible, it is seldom used in practice.
