Abstract


This article describes: the problems that arise when the foundations has to act on soils with low consistency or when very narrow tolerances have to be met; the origin of the above mentioned problems; the requirements that are not really necessary, with suitable examples; the absolute and relative admissible magnitudes of differential settlements in concrete structures, walls, partitions and metal structures; the tolerances for mechanical installations; recommendations for projects and a table that sums up the proposed tolerances for relative foundations.
