English

Subject field(s)
  • Shallow Foundations
DEF

(Stepped footing made of) solid, rectangular concrete blocks, used where loads are light and small soil-bearing areas suffice.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Fondations normales
CONT

La semelle filante ou isolée peut (...) être réalisée à redans successifs enveloppant le bulbe des pressions, ce qui allège la fondation, la couche supérieure seule étant armée.

OBS

Ne pas confondre la semelle isolée à redans (dont la partie supérieure est découpée en escalier, de chaque côté du poteau) avec les semelles fondées sur assiette en pente (dont les bases respectives sont à des niveaux différents les unes des autres, ce qui donne une fondation en gradins).
