RESUMEN: Este trabajo incluye la alternativa de cimentación para el correcto deslizamiento de tetrápodos de 1200 t en el patio de construcción de la Terminal Marítima de Cobos, sin que el suelo de apoyo haya sufrido falla total debido al esfuerzo cortante o en su defecto deformaciones excesivas. Se da una perspectiva general de proyectos poco convencionales, cuya solución no representa alternativas muy elaboradas y costosas, al contrario busco regresar a los principios básicos de la ingeniería geotécnica.
