Inhaltsangabe

This book is the dissertation work on Analysis of bearing capacity of Raft foundation, a type of shallow foundation. Now a days infrastructures are constructed without considering the geological condition of foundation. Thus it can produce adverse effect or heavy loss even due to small shaking of earth during earthquake or due to settlement and consolidation of foundation material.In context of Kathmandu,the capital city of Nepal,its the most vulnerable place according to geological point of view. First it comprises lacustrine sediments and second it is the most prone area for shaking during earthquake.Thus in order to prevent from heavy loss, engineering practice and geological information should go hand in hand.Science and technology should go side by side. This book has main aim to alert the people about considering geological information in any area before the establishment of infrastructures.Thus in this dissertation geological as well as engineering informations are equally evaluated for the best result.
