@Lord Cedric: A 21 storey building doesn't rise just overnight.

They need to do pile driving for its foundation. Since the area is reclaimed, it requires numerous piles to be driven to ensure that the structure is stable.

Pag wala pa stable na soil, hindi hihinto ang pile driving, although everything has been computed through resultd from soil sampling tests.

Usually foundation works eat up 30-40% of the building cost especially if the subsurface soil is not "stable"

Here's a more comprehensive introduction of pile foundations

I have a question...

What is the proportion in terms of the depth of a foundation with regards to the height of a building?

For example how deep usually (in terms of floor equivalent) does a foundation have to be if a building is say, 40 stories, so that it won't topple over during a strong earthquake or typhoon?

It depends on the soil characteristics - its ability to hold a structure without slipping ...if clayey, sandy or other types...and also depends on the total weight of the superstructure - or the building itself...

Piles are driven to hold onto a "hard" soil in order to support the weight above...

There are cases when a three storey building is supported by 10 lengths or more....per pile driven in a hole

Lateral movements caused by Earthquakes and wind (typhoon) are considered for structures 3 storeys and up. The total load they cause are then being ansorbed by walls, roofs and beams which in turn are supported by the columns. All building weight or load are carried by the columns which transmit them to the foundation.

The total load computed per column should be supported by its foundation, either footings (the mat or slab that carries the column)...

If the load is too great, that a footing cannot carry then engineers resort to piles - which is a very costly form of foundation....

Piles are common for areas with soft sub-soil i.e. reclaimed or near seas with sandy soil....

For stable soil such as limestones or hard soil - mat or footing foundations are typical... these were used by buildings inside IT Park, along Fuente-Ramos, Ayala and mountainous parts of Cebu...

The size, depth and type of foundation depends on the total load the entire structure carries and the soil strata....

Aiiii, mga Huang ani? Are you sure about this bai?

Henz · January 7th, 2009, 05:49 AM

i think wala ma hold woi.. kay sige man gihapon ang work.. i even see several trucks going in and out of the area and some vans unloading scaffolding and some machineries.
perhaps its just very difficult to establish a building in a newly reclaimed area rather in a stable land area....
