The book begins with the most critical part of any structure: the foundation. Rangwala meticulously explains the classification of soils, the bearing capacity of different strata, and the principles of foundation design. It details the construction of shallow foundations (spread, strip, and raft) and deep foundations (pile and well foundations) with clarity that few other texts match. The illustrations of excavation methods and timbering of trenches are particularly useful for site engineers.
