About

1-1. Purpose. This manual presents guidance for selecting and designing foundations and associated features for buildings, retaining structures, and machinery.

Information contained herein is directed toward construction usually undertaken on military reservations, although it is sufficiently general to permit its use on a wide variety of construction projects. a. This manual includes- (1) A brief summary of fundamental volumetric - gravimetric relationships. (2) Summaries of physical and engineering properties of soil and rock.
