Pathologies in deep foundations, recovery method – Practical applications

Pathological problems, Geotechnics, Structural reinforcement.Abstract
The term "foundation" refers to the establishment of a foundation for construction, playing a crucial role in the transmission of loads and stresses to the ground, as highlighted by Milititsky (2015) and Azeredo (1997). In the context of Civil Engineering and Geotechnics, the diversity of soils requires detailed studies to ensure the safety and stability of the structure in the face of variable and static loads, also considering economic and environmental factors. Pathological structural problems may arise, requiring adequate investigation and treatment to preserve the stability of the building without compromising the safety of people and property. This work aims to present the possible pathologies in foundations, along with the methodologies of structural control and reinforcement.
