There are many definitions for a caisson. This can be an underwater chamber that is filled with compressed air for the purpose of creating a working environment such as for construction of a bridge or underwater tunnel. A caisson is also a chest that is used to hold ammunition or a 2 wheeled cart that can be attached to a horse for hauling purposes such as during the civil war times.
caisson foundationsare foundation systems created by drilling holes and filling them with concrete. A caisson pile is a cast-in-place pile that has a hollow tube driveninto the ground. The earth is excavated from the tube, and concrete is poured into the tube. Some caisson piles are flared out at the bottom to create a larger bearingsurface. These are sometimes called bell caissons.The purpose is to extend the foundation through soils that are not capable of load-bearing capacity.The caissons may be attached to grade beams and/or retaining walls or structural beams as intended and described by your engineer.
