The real behaviour of structures in contact with ground involves an interactive process beginning with the construction phase and ending with a state of balance after a period of adjustment of stress and strains within the structure and within the ground influenced by the structure.
Building structures, storage tanks, bridges adjacent to high embankments on soft ground, buried pipes and culverts, retention systems, tunnels, and offshore platforms all experience interactive effects.
