The Ultimate Bearing Capacity of Foudations

摘要: Synopsis In the first part of article a theory bearing capacity is developed, on basis plastic theory, by extending previous analysis for surface footings to shallow and deep foundations in uniform cohesive material with fntemal friction. The theoretical results are represented factors terms mechanical properties soil, physical characteristics foundation. base resistance purely found increase only slightly foundation depth; skin friction is, therefore, large compared resistance. cohesionless material, however, increases rapidly depth depends considerable extent earth pressure coefficient shaft; predominant feature shin relatively small. second main laboratory field loading ...
