T. Richard Morris has worked in the foundation field for over forty years and is the founder of International Construction Equipment, Inc. His book, Famous Foundations: Successes and Failures, documents eighteen unique foundations that were the pride or the embarrassment of design engineers or builders. From the long-lasting foundations of the early Roman roads and bridges to the new Tappan Zee Bridge, the book includes over 100 photographs and drawings that illustrate the planning phase, construction, and operation of the structures. A primer is also included for those unfamiliar with foundation design and construction.
