Shoring is the construction of a temporary structure to support an unsafe or unstable structure. There are three main types of shoring: raking shores, flying shores, and dead shores. Raking shores use inclined members called rakers to provide lateral support to walls. Flying shores provide temporary support between party walls when an intermediate building is demolished. Dead shores provide vertical support to walls and structures when the lower part of a wall is removed, such as to add an opening.
This document provides an overview of different types of retaining walls, including gravity, cantilever, counterfort, sheet pile, and diaphragm walls. It discusses the key components and design considerations for gravity and cantilever retaining walls. Gravity walls rely on their own weight for stability, while cantilever walls consist of a vertical stem with a heel and toe slab acting as a cantilever beam. The document also covers lateral earth pressures, drainage of retaining walls, uses of sheet pile walls, and construction methods for diaphragm walls.
The document discusses different types of lintels and arches used in building construction. It describes lintels as horizontal structural members placed across openings to support the structure above. Various lintel materials include timber, stone, brick, reinforced brick, steel, and reinforced concrete. Arches are structures that span openings and support weight below through arch action. Key arch types include flat, semi-circular, segmental, relieving, parabolic, and others defined by their geometric shape. Arches are classified based on materials like brick, stone, concrete, metal and wood. Factors in arch construction and methods to prevent arch failure are also summarized.
This document provides an overview of foundations for building construction. It discusses the importance of foundations in distributing building loads to the ground. There are two main types of foundations - shallow foundations and deep foundations. Shallow foundations include spread footings, grillage foundations, raft foundations, stepped foundations, and mat/slab foundations. Deep foundations transfer loads deep into the earth and include drilled caissons, driven piles, and precast concrete piles. Foundation design considers factors like soil type, structural requirements, construction requirements, site conditions, and cost. The document also discusses waterproofing, drainage, and underpinning foundations.
Deep foundations are used when the bearing stratum is located at a significant depth below the surface. The most common types of deep foundations are pile foundations, cofferdams, and caisson foundations. Pile foundations support structures using vertical piles that transfer loads either through end bearing or skin friction. Piles can be made of timber, concrete, steel, or a composite. Cofferdams are temporary structures used to exclude water from a construction site to allow work below the water level. Common types include earthfill, rockfill, single-walled, and cellular cofferdams. Caissons are watertight structures that become part of the permanent foundation. Types are open caissons, box caissons
This document discusses raft/mat foundations, including:
- A raft foundation is a thick reinforced concrete slab that supports columns and transmits loads into the soil. It is used for structures with large or uneven column loads.
- Types of raft foundations include flat plate, thickened under columns, beam and slab, box structures, and mats on piles.
- Construction involves soil testing, excavation, reinforcement placement, forming, concrete pouring, and curing. Raft foundations are economic and reduce differential settlement but require treatment for point loads.
Stone masonry uses stones bonded together with mortar to construct various building components such as walls, columns, foundations, arches and lintels. Stones are selected based on availability, ease of working, appearance, strength, polishing characteristics and economy. There are two main types of stone masonry - rubble masonry which uses roughly dressed stones with wider joints, and ashlar masonry which uses accurately dressed stones with fine, uniform joints. Rubble masonry includes uncoursed, coursed, random, dry and polygonal styles based on stone arrangement. Ashlar masonry has fine, rough, rock-faced, block and chamfered styles based on stone dressing. Stone
Footings are structural members that support columns and walls and transmit their loads to the soil. Different types of footings include wall footings, isolated/single footings, combined footings, cantilever/strap footings, continuous footings, rafted/mat foundations, and pile caps. Footings must be designed to safely carry and transmit loads to the soil while meeting code requirements regarding bearing capacity, settlement, reinforcement, and shear strength. A proper footing design involves determining loads, allowable soil pressure, reinforcement requirements, and assessing settlement.

This document discusses different types of foundations used to support structures. It begins by stating the objectives are to understand foundation construction, types of foundations, and which are suitable for different soil types. It then defines foundations as the lowest part of a structure below ground that transmits the weight to the subsoil. The main types discussed are shallow foundations, which include wall, column, combined, and mat foundations, and deep foundations, such as pile, under-reamed pile, and well foundations. Specific foundation types like isolated column, combined, mat, pile, under-reamed pile and well foundations are then described in more detail.
Shallow foundations are foundations that are less than 3 meters below ground level. They include pad, strip, or raft foundations. Shallow foundations transfer structural loads from the building to the soil without overstressing the soil, which could cause excessive settlement or shear failure and damage the structure. Common types of shallow foundations are pad/square spread footings, circular spread footings, continuous spread/strip footings, combined footings, and raft foundations. Shallow foundations are generally used to support structures on soil with adequate bearing capacity and have advantages of lower cost, simpler construction, and use of common materials like concrete. However, they are more susceptible to settlement issues.

MAGA Engineering is a leading construction company in Sri Lanka that has been in operation since 1984. The report discusses the trainee's 3-month in-plant training experience working on the NSBM Green University Town project in Pitipana, which MAGA Engineering is constructing. During the training period, the trainee engaged in various construction activities like formwork, reinforcement, concreting, surveying, and attended seminars to learn and gain experience.
1) Bearing capacity of shallow foundations is the ability of soil to support the load from the foundation without shear failure or excessive settlement. It depends on factors like soil type, density, depth of water table, and foundation shape and size.
2) Terzaghi's bearing capacity theory provides an equation to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity considering soil cohesion, unit weight, depth factors, and bearing capacity factors. The water table depth is also accounted for.
3) Foundation settlement includes immediate elastic settlement and long-term consolidation settlement. Settlement is estimated using methods like plate load tests, standard penetration tests, and theories for different soil types. Differential settlement between foundation parts needs to be limited.

Two example problems are included to demonstrate the design of a wall footing and square column footing.
Shallow foundations are foundations with small depths limited to the width of the footing. They spread loads from the superstructure over a larger area of soil to reduce stress intensity to a level the soil can safely support. Shallow foundations are classified as isolated or combined footings. Isolated footings support single walls or columns, while combined footings support two or more columns and come in shapes like rectangular, trapezoidal, or T-shaped. Mat foundations are used for soils with very low bearing capacity, forming a single, continuous raft to support the entire structure.
There are two main types of ground floors: solid floors and hollow floors. A solid ground floor consists of hardcore, blinding, a damp proof membrane (DPM), site concrete, insulation, and a floor finish laid in that order. Hardcore provides a firm base and blinding prevents puncturing of the DPM. Insulation is placed either above or below the floor slab or finish to prevent heat loss. Oversite concrete, at least 100mm thick, is poured between floor walls.

Building foundations are broadly classified as shallow and deep foundations. Types of shallow foundations include individual footings, combined footings, strip foundations, and raft or mat foundations. Deep foundations include pile foundations and drilled shafts or caissons. Combined footings are used when column footings are close together, while raft foundations are used for high structural loads. Drilled shafts can transfer larger loads than piles and are used when hard soil is 10-100m deep.
Structural system of Buildings(sub-structure+ super structure)Kaiserin Tania
The document summarizes the structural system of buildings, focusing on foundations and substructures. It defines foundations as the part of the structure that transfers loads from the building to the soil. Substructures are the parts of buildings located underground, transferring loads from the superstructure above ground to the soil. There are different types of shallow foundations, including spread footings, wall footings, combined footings, and raft/mat foundations, as well as deep pile foundations, classified based on function, materials, and installation methods. Foundations are designed according to soil conditions and building loads to distribute weight effectively while preventing settlement.
About foundation and its Types
1. Foundation, Part of a structural system that supports and anchors the superstructure of a building and transmits its loads directly to the earth.
2. To prevent damage from repeated freeze-thaw cycles, the bottom of the foundation must be below the frost line.
3. The foundations of low-rise residential buildings are nearly all supported on spread footings, wide bases (usually of concrete) that support walls or piers and distribute the load over a greater area.
4. A concrete grade beam supported by isolated footings, piers, or piles may be placed at ground level, especially in a building without a basement, to support the exterior wall.
The document discusses different types of foundations for buildings. It describes shallow foundations, which are near the surface, and deep foundations, which are deeper. Shallow foundations include spread footings, combined footings, strap footings, and mat/raft foundations. Deep foundations include pile foundations, which transfer load through friction or end bearing, and pier foundations. The document provides details on different types of piles based on material, function, and construction method.
The document discusses the basic components of buildings. It defines what constitutes a building and explains that buildings have two primary components - the sub-structure/foundation and the super-structure. The sub-structure includes different types of shallow and deep foundations that transfer the building's loads to the ground. The super-structure includes elements like the plinth, floors, columns, walls, beams and roof that make up the upper portions of the building above ground level. It provides details on the various load types buildings must support and describes common foundation and super-structure elements.
A foundation is a lower portion of building structure that transfers its gravity loads to the earth. Foundations are generally broken into two categories: shallow foundations and deep foundations. ... Once the foundation has been packed down tightly, or dried hard, we can begin to build the building superstructure.
The document discusses foundations in civil engineering structures. It defines shallow and deep foundations. Shallow foundations transfer loads to the earth near the surface and include strip, spread, combined, strap, and mat foundations. Deep foundations transfer loads farther below surface using piles and wells. The Taj Mahal used a well foundation to stabilize riverbank sand, with conduits and drainage pipes in stone and mortar beneath rubble-filled wells. Proper foundation design requires consideration of both geotechnical and structural engineering.
Shallow foundations transfer structural loads to soil near the surface and are suitable when soil has good bearing capacity. They include spread, combined, and mat/raft foundations. Spread footings are most common, supporting individual columns or walls. Combined and mat foundations are used when loads overlap or are very high. Shallow foundations are simpler and cheaper than deep foundations but have limitations regarding soil conditions and structural loads.
There are two broad classifications of foundations - shallow and deep. Types of shallow foundations include individual or isolated footings, combined footings, strip footings, and raft or mat foundations. Deep foundations include pile foundations, which transfer loads to deeper soil layers, and drilled shafts or caissons, which are similar to pile foundations but are cast-in-place. Factors such as soil type and load determine the appropriate foundation type, with isolated footings used for single columns and raft foundations spanning the entire building area for high loads.
1) Shallow foundations, such as spread footings, are used to transfer structural loads from columns and walls directly to soil. Spread footings spread loads over a large soil area to avoid overstressing the soil.
2) Loads on foundations include dead loads from the structure itself, live loads from occupancy, and other loads like wind forces. Settlements can be uniform or differential, with differential settlement needing to be minimized.
3) Common types of shallow foundations are square, rectangular, circular, continuous strip, combined, and ring spread footings. Foundation depth and location depends on soil properties and surrounding structures.
Types of Foundation..Sana may matutunan po tayo !Ricko Guerrero
There are two main types of foundation systems - shallow and deep. Shallow foundations include spread footings and mat/raft foundations. Spread footings are individual slabs under columns and walls that spread the structural load over a broad area. Mat/raft foundations use a continuous slab over the entire loaded area and are often used for structures with high or irregular loads. Deep foundations include piles, piers, caissons and compensated foundations that extend below the building. Piles transfer structural loads to stronger soils at depth using end bearing or friction along the pile. Common pile types include concrete, steel and timber piles.

The document discusses different types of foundations for structures. It explains that foundations are the base of a structure and transfer the structure's load to the soil. There are two main types: shallow foundations, which are wider than they are deep and suitable for soils that can bear loads near the surface, and deep foundations, which extend deeper underground to reach stronger soils or bedrock. Shallow foundations include individual/isolated footings for single columns, combined footings for multiple close columns, strip foundations for load-bearing walls, and raft/mat foundations that spread loads across an entire area. Deep foundations include pile foundations using columns driven deep into the ground, drilled shaft/caisson foundations constructed by digging shafts and filling them with

Paper Title
Particle Swarm Optimization–Long Short-Term Memory based Channel Estimation with Hybrid Beam Forming Power Transfer in WSN-IoT Applications
Authors
Reginald Jude Sixtus J and Tamilarasi Muthu, Puducherry Technological University, India
Abstract
Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) helps to overcome various difficulties in future technology wireless communications. NOMA, when utilized with millimeter wave multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, channel estimation becomes extremely difficult. For reaping the benefits of the NOMA and mm-Wave combination, effective channel estimation is required. In this paper, we propose an enhanced particle swarm optimization based long short-term memory estimator network (PSOLSTMEstNet), which is a neural network model that can be employed to forecast the bandwidth required in the mm-Wave MIMO network. The prime advantage of the LSTM is that it has the capability of dynamically adapting to the functioning pattern of fluctuating channel state. The LSTM stage with adaptive coding and modulation enhances the BER.PSO algorithm is employed to optimize input weights of LSTM network. The modified algorithm splits the power by channel condition of every single user. Participants will be first sorted into distinct groups depending upon respective channel conditions, using a hybrid beamforming approach. The network characteristics are fine-estimated using PSO-LSTMEstNet after a rough approximation of channels parameters derived from the received data.

3. Introduction
Foundations ( sub structure) is the lower portion the building , usually located below ground
level, which transmits the load of the super structure to the sub soil a foundation is therefore
that part of the structure which is in direct contact with the ground to which the loads are
transmitted
The soil which is located immediately below the base of the foundation is called the sub-soil
or foundation soil, while the lowermost portions of the foundation which is in direct contact
with the sub soil is called the footing.
Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
4. Functions of foundations
The basic function of a foundation is to transmit the dead loads, super – imposed loads (or live
loads) and wind loads from a building to the soil on which the building rests.
Foundation serves the following purposes:
1. Reduction of load intensity
Foundations distribute the loads of the super structure, to a larger area so that the intensity of the
load at its base does not exceed the safe bearing capacity of the soil.
2. Even distribution of load
Foundations distribute the non – uniform loads of the super structure evenly to the sub-soil
3. Provision of level surface
Foundation provide leveled and hard surface over which the super-structure can be built.
Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
5. 4. Lateral stability
It anchors the super structure to the ground, thus imparting lateral stability to the super
structure.
5. Safety against under mining
It provides the structural safety against undermining due to burrowing animals and food water.
6. Protection against soil movements
Special foundations measures prevents or minimizes the distress (or cracks) in the super-
structure, due to expansion of the sub soil because of moisture movement in same problematic
soils.
Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
6. Foundation loads
Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
Dead Load
this is the load of the material used for the various components of a building such as
walls, floors, roofs, etc. all permanent loads are thus included in dead load.
Live Load
this is the movable load on the floor and hence its variable. Its also sometimes known as
the super imposed load. It includes the load of persons standing on a floor, weight of the
material stored on a floor, weight f snow on a roof, etc.
Wind Load
In case of tall buildings, the effect due to wind should be considered.
Structural Member Forces
Uplift
Earthquake
Horizontal and vertical forces caused by the motion of the ground relative to the
building.

Strap footing – if the independent footings of two columns are connected by a beam, it is
called a strap footing. A strap footings may be used where the distance between the column is
so great that a combined trapezoidal footing becomes quite narrow, with high bending
moment. In that case, each column is provided with its independent footings and a beam is
used to connect the two footings.

Mat foundation ( Raft foundation )– a mat or raft is a combined footing that covers the
entire area beneath a structure and supports all the walls and columns. When the allowable
soil pressure is low, or the building loads are heavy, the use of spread footings would cover
more than one half the area and it may prove more economical to use mat or raft foundation.

depth. They are much large in diameter than the pier foundations or drilled caissons. Well
foundations or caissons are hollow from inside, which may be filled with sand, and are
plugged at the perimeter wall, called steining. This type of foundations are not used for
buildings. Based on shape classified as follows;
i. Circular
ii. rectangular
1. Deep strip footing
2. Pile foundation
3. Pier (drilled caisson) foundation
4. Well (caissons) foundation
20. Selection criteria for foundations based on soil
conditions,
Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
Selection criteria for foundation for buildings depend on two factors, i.e. factors related to
ground (soil) conditions and factors related to loads from the structure. The
performance of foundation is based on interface between the loadings from the structure and the
supporting ground or strata. The nature and conditions of each of these varies, so, the selection of
appropriate foundation becomes necessary for these variations depending on circumstances.
Selection of Foundation based on Ground Conditions:
The ground or soil condition is necessary for determining the type of suitable foundation. The
soil on which the industrial, commercial or residential building rests may be stable, level and
of uniform composition, but in some situations it may be otherwise.
Following are criteria for selecting suitable foundation based on soil condition:
Where soil close to the surface is capable of supporting
structure loads, shallow foundations can be provided.
Where the ground close to surface is not capable of supporting
structural loads, hard strata is searched for, and in some cases, it
may be very deep, like in case of multi-storey buildings, where
loads are very high. So, deep foundations are suitable for such
cases.
21. Selection criteria for foundations based on soil
conditions,
Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
Field up ground have low bearing capacity, so deep foundation is required at that place,
whereas uniform stable ground needs relatively shallow foundation.
Level of the ground also affects foundation selection. If the ground is not leveled, and has
gradient then step foundation may be preferred.
Selection of foundation based on Loads from Building:
The loading condition i.e. type and magnitude of loads, depends on the form and type of building
to be constructed.
In case of low rise building with large span, the extent of loading is relatively modest, so
shallow foundation is preferred in this case.
While high-rise building with short span has high loads. Therefore, deep foundation is
required in such cases. Deep foundation is provided because ground at greater depth are highly
compacted.
In case of framed structure multi-storey building, where loads are concentrated at the point of
application, the use of pads and piles are common.
Where, loads of the buildings are uniformly distributed, like from masonry claddings, the piles
are not needed.
22. Bearing capacity of soil,
Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
A foundation should be designed to satisfy two essential conditions ;
i. It must have some specified safety against ultimate failure .
ii. The settlements under working loads should not exceed the allowable limits for the super
structure.
Bearing capacity is the power of foundation soil to hold the forces from the
superstructure without undergoing shear failure or excessive settlement. used for
the design of foundations (i.e. for determine the dimensions of the foundations ) is determined
on the basis of the above two criteria. In general, the supporting power of a soil or rocks is
referred to as its bearing capacity. The term bearing capacity is defined after attaching certain
qualifying prefixes, as defined below;
1. Gross pressure intensity (q)
2. Net pressure intensity (qn)
3. Ultimate bearing capacity (qf)
4. Net ultimate bearing capacity (qnf)
5. Net safe bearing capacity (qns)
6. Safe bearing capacity (qs)
7. Allowable bearing capacity (qa)
23. Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
Ultimate Bearing Capacity (qf) : It is the maximum pressure that a foundation soil can
withstand without undergoing shear failure.
Net ultimate Bearing Capacity (qnf) : It is the maximum extra pressure (in addition to
initial overburden pressure) that a foundation soil can withstand without undergoing shear
failure.
qnf = qf – qo
Here, qo represents the overburden pressure at foundation level and is equal to үD for level
ground without surcharge where ү is the unit weight of soil and D is the depth to foundation
bottom from Ground Level.
Safe Bearing Capacity (qs) : It is the safe extra load the foundation soil is subjected to in
addition to initial overburden pressure.
Here. F represents the factor of safety.
Allowable Bearing Pressure (qa) : It is the maximum pressure the foundation soil is
subjected to considering both shear failure and settlement.

Testing Plate
Dial Gauge
It is a field test for the determination of bearing
capacity and settlement characteristics of ground
in field at the foundation level.
The test involves preparing a test pit up to the desired
foundation level.
A rigid steel plate, round or square in shape, 300 mm to 750 mm in size, 25 mm thick acts
as model footing.
Plate load test on the soil
26. Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
Dial gauges, at least 2, of required accuracy (0.002 mm) are placed on plate at corners to
measure the vertical deflection.
Loading is provided either as gravity loading or as reaction loading. For smaller loads
gravity loading is acceptable where sand bags apply the load.
In reaction loading, a reaction truss or beam is anchored to
the ground. A hydraulic jack applies the reaction load.
At every applied load, the plate settles gradually.
The dial gauge readings are recorded after the settlement reduces
to least count of gauge (0.002 mm) & average settlement of
2 or more gauges is recorded.
Load Vs settlement graph is plotted as shown. Load (P) is
plotted on the horizontal scale and settlement (Δ) is plotted on
the vertical scale.
Red curve indicates the general shear failure & the
blue one indicates the local or punching shear failure.
The maximum load at which the shear failure occurs gives the
ultimate bearing capacity of soil.

mm
It is a field test to estimate the penetration resistance of soil.
It consists of a split spoon sampler 50.8 mm OD, 35 mm ID, min 600 mm long and 63.5 kg
hammer freely dropped from a height of 750 mm.
Test is performed on a clean hole 50 mm to 150 mm in diameter.
Split spoon sampler is placed vertically in the hole, allowed to freely settle under its own
weight or with blows for first 150 mm which is called seating drive.
Penetration test
29. Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
The number of blows required for the next 300 mm penetration into the ground is the
standard penetration number N
Apply the desired corrections (such as corrections for overburden pressure, saturated fine silt
and energy)
N is correlated with most properties of soil such as friction angle, undrained cohesion, density
etc.

31. Method of improving bearing capacity of soil
Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
Some times, the safe bearing pressure of soil is so low that the dimensions of the footings work
out to be very large and un economical. In such a circumstance, it becomes essential to improve
the safe bearing pressure, which can be done by the following methods;
1. Increasing depth of foundation
2. Compaction of soil
3. Drainage of soil
4. Confining the soil
5. Grouting
6. Chemical treatment
a) Ramming moist soil
b) Rubble compaction into the soil
c) Flooding the soil
d) vibration
e) Vibroflotation
f) Compaction by pre-loading
g) Using sand piles
32. Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
Increasing depth of foundation
It has been found that in granular soil, the bearing capacity increases with the depth due to
the confining weight of overlying material. However this is not economical since the cost of
construction increases with the depth.
Compaction of soil
it has found that compaction of natural soil deposits or man-made fills results in the
improvement of bearing capacity and reduction in the resulting settlement . Compaction of
soil can be achieved by the following means
Drainage of soil
it is a well known fact that the presence of water decreases
the bearing power of soil , specially when its saturated.
This is because of low shearing strength of soil in
presence of excess water. Drainage results in decreases
in the voids ratio , and improvement in bearing capacity.
a) Ramming moist soil
b) Rubble compaction into the soil
c) Flooding the soil
d) vibration
e) Vibroflotation
f) Compaction by pre-loading
g) Using sand piles
33. Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
Confining the soil
some times the safe bearing pressure of the soil is low due to the lateral movement of loose
granular soil. Such a tendency of lateral movement can be checked by confining the soil, out
side the perimeter of foundation area, by driving sheet piles , thus forming an enclosure and
confining the soil
Grouting
this method is useful in loose gravels and fissured rocky strata. Bores holes in sufficient
numbers are driven in the ground and cement grout is forced through these under pressure.
The cracks, voids and fissures of the strata are thus filled with the grout, resulting increase
in the bearing value.
Chemical treatment
in this method, certain chemicals are grouted in the place of cement grout. The chemical
should be such that it can solidify and gain early strength.
34. Settlement of foundations
Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
The vertical downward movement of the base of a structure is called settlement and its effect
upon the structure depends on its magnitude, its informality, the length of the time over which
it takes place, and the nature of the structure itself. Foundation settlements may be caused by
some or a combination of the following reasons;
1. Elastic compression
2. Inelastic (or plastic ) compression
3. Ground water lowering
4. Vibrations
5. Seasonal swelling and shrinkage
6. Ground movement on earth slopes
7. Other causes
35. Settlement of foundations
Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
1. Elastic compression of the foundation and the underlying soil.
2. Inelastic (or plastic ) compression of the underlying soils, which is much larger than
the elastic compression. The in elastic compression can be predicted by the theory of
consolidation.
3. Ground water lowering repeated lowering and rising of water level in loose granular soil
tends to compact the soil and cause settlement of the ground surface.
4. Vibrations due to pile driving, blasting and oscillating machineries may cause settlement
in deposits of granular soils.
5. Seasonal swelling and shrinkage of expensive clays.
6. Ground movement on earth slopes, such as surface erosion, slow creep or landslide.
7. Other causes such as adjacent excavation, mining subsidence, underground erosion, etc.
36. Causes of failure of foundation and remedial
measures
Shanik. A Asst.Prof. MES School Of Architecture
1. Unequal settlement of sub soil
2. Unequal settlement of masonry
3. Sub soil moisture movement
4. Lateral pressure on the walls
5. Lateral movement of sub soil
6. Weathering of sub soil due to trees and shrubs
7. Atmospheric action
