Bearing capacity of circular footing on sand: A critical state approach
Mohamed I Ramadan
Abstract:There has been extensive research into the bearing capacity of circular footing under vertical centric load. Although the scatter values for the bearing capacity factor Nγ that have been suggested by different methods, the classical solution is still being widely used in the design codes. Sand particle morphology, footing diameter D, mean effective stress level pˊ, and sand relative density Dr, are some of the variables influencing the surface footing bearing capacity in sandy soil. Different sands may have va… Show more
