The TISE equipment developed by the author is protected by invention patents. The production and sale of TISE equipment without a license agreement is PROHIBITED BY THE LAW “On Industrial Property of the Russian Federation.” The book also describes in detail the construction of a buried foundation with increased load-bearing capacity using TISE technology using the TISE-F foundation drill developed by the author. The simplicity of the technology, low labor and cost costs, and high performance characteristics of the constructed foundation allow us to consider TISE technology as promising in this area of construction. This book provides overview information about soils, foundations and foundations erected in individual construction conditions. An analysis of the most common standard foundations is given in a simple and accessible form, understandable to developers who do not have special education. The book provides a detailed description of the TISE technology: the construction of a buried foundation with increased load-bearing capacity. The simplicity of the technology, the low cost of labor and money, and the high performance characteristics of the constructed foundation allow us to consider it as a promising direction of development in this area of construction. The purpose of the book is to help novice developers understand the choice of the optimal foundation, teach them to independently make the right decisions in this matter, taking into account the current level of development of construction technologies. The book brought to your attention discusses in detail the following issues: • general information about soils; • loads experienced by foundations and calculation of their bearing capacity; • columnar and columnar-strip foundations; • behavior of foundations under various operating conditions; • causes of subsidence and destruction of foundations; • restoration of foundations. The book will be useful not only for beginners in construction and professionals, but also for architects and designers of individual housing working using other construction technologies.
