Foundation engineering has been practiced as an art, without help of science, since time immemorial up to 1920 when it had achieved a considerable amount of refinement. It was in the earlier 1920s that a concerted effort was made to study and understand the physical laws governing the behavior of sub surface materials, i.e.. soil from which foundations derived their support and on whose behavior its own behavior depends. This is the time when study of soil mechanics was started and it was in 1919 when Karl Terzaghi, popularly known as \’father of soil mechanics\’, made successful attempt to explain the phenomenon of settlement on a scientific basis.
