DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF DRILLED SHAFTS

This paper dwells on a few of the important geotechnical engineering aspects which should be considered in the design and construction of axially loaded drilled shaft foundations. No attempt is made to discuss drilled shaft design from a structural engineer's perspective. In real life, the actual selection and desitn of any foundation system should be a joint effort between the structural and geotechnical engineer. Such a joint effort insures the most economical fououndation system for a given structure.
