i think the orientation of a building along the bay of Bengal should be south-east.
please correct me if i am wrong.😀
orientation means the building alignment.it depends on factors like sunlight,air flow into the house,etc.orientation is to plan the house in such a way that we take the maximum advantage of the available resources like sunlight,breeze,etc.cooltwinswhat is orientation of building?what should the orientation in the coast of India along the Bay of Bengal be?

i think deep foundations are of 2 types.
1. well foundations
2.pile foundations.
and regarding alignment of the building all natural factors are considered like air, light.. they should be available for a happy and comfortable living. and in most of the interviews and competitive exams, they stress more on basics, as far my knowledge is considered.

procedure of design mix means u have several methods to prepare a design mix. each system has different procedure. so be specific in your question.

Hey madugula,
in the types of foundation i think you forgot to include the shallow foundations.
foundation is of two types:shallow and deep foundations.
there are many shallow foundations like isolated column, raft footing, steel grillage, etc.
in the deep foundations we have well,caisson,pile foundations i think.
correct me if i'm wrong 😀

yes you are right. but the question you asked is "types of deep foundations" so i didnt include shallow foundations.
@CIVILPRINCESS • 28 Jan, 2010
