3.1.8 Calculation and settlement check (TTGH 2)

3.1.8.1 Stress check at conventional block foundation

- The foundation of the pile foundation resists deformation very little, always satisfying the deformation condition so there is no need to check. The foundation of the friction pile foundation must be checked according to the deformation condition. It is believed that thanks to the friction force between the surrounding surface of the pile and the soil surrounding the pile, the load of the foundation is transmitted over the area.

- The conventional foundation block (abcd) is considered as a shallow foundation on natural ground and the settlement of the ground under that foundation is calculated. To calculate the settlement of the ground under that foundation, the relationship between deformation and stress is linear.
