Project Description

lient Instruction:
Overview:
This task focuses on “Effects of Rising Groundwater Table on Shallow Foundations in Urban Areas.” The client is required to conduct a research study examining how increasing groundwater levels impact the stability, safety, and performance of shallow foundations in urban construction. The overview should introduce the topic by explaining the mechanisms by which a rising water table affects soil strength, bearing capacity, and settlement behavior. It should highlight the relevance for engineers, urban planners, and policymakers in designing foundations, managing risks, and ensuring structural safety in urban environments.

Work Requirements:
Prepare a research paper of approximately 300 words in APA format, to be submitted by 7th December 2025. The paper must include a title page, a concise discussion with proper in-text citations, and a reference page with at least four credible scholarly sources. Formatting should follow APA guidelines: Times New Roman 12-point font, double spacing, and 1-inch margins. The writing should be formal, analytical, and focused on explaining the technical and practical effects of a rising groundwater table on shallow foundations in urban areas.
