This course provides an in-depth exploration of the principles, methods, and practical applications involved in the design and analysis of deep foundations. The course covers various types of deep foundations, including driven piles, drilled shafts, caissons, and helical piles. Participants will learn how to evaluate subsurface conditions, select appropriate foundation types, and apply advanced analysis techniques to ensure the stability and integrity of structures supported by deep foundations.

This course emphasizes both the theoretical and practical aspects of deep foundation design, with a focus on understanding soil-structure interaction, load transfer mechanisms, and the effects of environmental conditions. Through real-world case studies and hands-on examples, participants will gain the skills necessary to design and analyze deep foundations for various structures, including buildings, bridges, and offshore platforms.

Additionally, the course will introduce industry-standard software tools used for deep foundation design and analysis, providing practical guidance on modeling, analysis, and interpretation of results.
