La reconnaissance. Cette opération est faite en deux temps : la reconnaissance de la surface du terrain sur laquelle doit être édifiée la construction, et la reconnaissance du sol en profondeur [...] La reconnaissance en profondeur peut être faite par l'examen de fouilles [...] pour des constructions d'assez faible importance, quand le sol est relativement bon [...] Mais dès que les constructions [...] sont importantes, et qu'elles doivent apporter de grandes charges sur le sol, il faut effectuer une reconnaissance par forages suffisamment rapprochés. 1, record 1, French, - reconnaissance%20du%20sol%20en%20profondeur
