This work details a complete "how to" procedure for the design of shallow foundations commonly used with low-rise structures of today's building codes. It presents a detailed presentation of both soils and structures, specifically as they relate to shallow foundations, emphasizing soil-structure interaction by matching particular structural designs to particular soil conditions. These established and proven methods apply to industries of architecture, construction, engineering technology, as well as civil engineering, and are intended for use by both students and practitioners.
