  • Expanding the scope of application of foundations with a curvilinear contact surface

    The subject of the study is processes related to the construction of strip-shell foundations. The scope of the study is the construction of the base under the shell, providing a curvilinear contour of the structure. Traditionally, the foundation structure is placed in undisturbed soil, which, due to its physical and mechanical characteristics, can limit the scope of application of such foundations. Using the Harrington desirability function, the authors evaluated six models of soil masses with different physical and mechanical as well as technological properties. As a result of the studies, the suggested options were rated “satisfactory” or lower. In this regard, it is required to improve both the quality of the base under the shell and the technology for the construction of such foundations by using cost-efficient prefabricated soil-cement blocks.
