Thesis Abstract
Abstract
**
This study focuses on geotechnical investigations for foundation design, aiming to assess subsurface conditions and engineering properties of soils and rocks. Through field exploration, laboratory testing, and numerical analysis, the research evaluates soil composition, strength, compressibility, and bearing capacity to inform optimal foundation design practices. By integrating geotechnical data with site-specific considerations such as structural requirements, environmental factors, and construction methods, the study aims to mitigate risks and ensure the stability and longevity of engineered structures.
