ENSURING THE STRENGTH OF BUILDINGS AND STRUCTURES ON INSULATED SOILS
The paper considers the main provisions of the design of foundations and foundations of building objects on soils with subsidence properties in specific special natural and climatic conditions of Tajikistan. As a result, some provisions have been developed for the design of the foundations and foundations of civil buildings erected on the territory of the republic. Almost all large cities of the country (Dushanbe, Bokhtar, Kulyab, Norak, etc.) are located on significant strata of subsiding soils, which serve as the foundations of buildings and structures in operation and being erected. The center of the country, the city of Dushanbe, is geographically located in the central part, where there are mainly soils in the form of loess rocks of the Quaternary deposits, the so-called loess-like loams. The article is devoted to the design and construction of reinforced massifs in the foundations of buildings and structures erected on loess soils of the II type of subsidence. Methods for improving the bearing capacity of foundation soils, basic design principles and requirements for foundation construction are proposed.
