Try this. Wrap input and span to the input-group.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" >
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/js/bootstrap.min.js" ></script>
<div class="row ">
<div class="form-group col-lg-2"></div>
<div class="form-group col-lg-4">
<label class="Bold">Location Id </label>
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control" name="LocationId" >
<span class="input-group-append">
<button class="btn btn-info btn-md" type="button">
<i class="fa fa-search"></i>
</button>
</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group col-lg-4">
<label class="Bold">Description </label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" name="description">
</div>
<div class="form-group col-lg-2">
</div>
</div>

Answer 3

Form-control class for Input makes the text box occupy the entire width. We need to use input-group class to group input and any icon attached to it. Refer code snippet below for example:
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control"/>
<span class="input-group-addon">
<i class="fa fa-search"></i>
</span>
</div>

Answer 4

Following is the code snippet:
<div class="form-group col-lg-4">
<label class="Bold">Location Id </label>
<input type="text" class="location-txt form-control" name="LocationId" >
<span class="input-group-btn location-search">
<button class="btn btn-info btn-md" type="button">
<i class="fa fa-search"></i>
</button>
</span>
</div>
CSS
.location-txt
width: calc(100% - 44px);
float: left;
}
.location-search{
display: inline-block;
float: right;
}
