Abstract
Geotechnical practice deals with designing foundations and earth structures. Structure

interaction is a unique field or topic that concerns both structural and geotechnical engineers. Most
geotechnical problems are very sensitive to foundation geometry (length, diameter, spacing), flexural
stiffness etc. Even basic parameters such as bearing capacity of shallow foundations, ultimate axial and
lateral load capacities of deep/pile foundations, are influenced by the foundation characteristics. More
importantly, the serviceability criterion can be satisfied only by proper and rational estimates of structure

foundation beds.
