Earthquake foundation design is a challenging task that requires analytical capabilities and extensive understanding of soil behaviour and soil structure interaction. The classical approach involves the determination of the forces applied to the foundation, the seismic demand, and the verification of the bearing capacity, the seismic capacity. However not all situations can be tackled with analyses. Seismic building codes and in particular their chapters on foundation detailing are fundamental to achieve a safe design.
