For original spread footings, the empirical model for punching shear presented in Eurocode 2 (acri = d/2) was found to serve as a good analytical model, as the predictions from this model yielded the best agreements with the FEA results. For the strengthened footings, an analytical model was...
Static stiffness coefficients, evaluated through a finite element analysis, are presented for rigid circular and strip footings embedded in an elastic stratum that rests on an undeformable base. In addition, a simplified method is presented for computing stiffness coefficients for footings that bear on...
A suction related term, in addition to cohesion, contributed to bearing capacity when scaled by the bearing capacity factor Nc. Xu [6] observed in experiments a suction dependant increase in bearing capacity in unsaturated expansive soils. Jahanandish et al. [7] accounted for this increase in ...
5. Although Spread Footing Data Table is not necessary for contract administration purposes, its inclusion is a useful addition to the plans. With the foundation design parameters included in the table, the engineer can perform an informed inspection of the bearing material. These design parameters ...

This paper presents the development of a strain-hardening plasticity model for a spudcan footing on loose sand. Most of the model components are developed from direct centrifuge observations. The centrifuge tests were performed at an acceleration of 100 times that of the Earth's gravity on a ...
In addition, the bearing capacity of strip footing on a granular layer over undrained clay is unaffected by clay unit weight. Milligan et al. (1989a and b) developed a new method for the design of unreinforced and reinforced unpaved roads using the load spread model. The applied vertical ...
In addition, the footings for which the reinforcing bars with hooks at the end are used did not show considerable differences in the bond resistance compared with those for which the reinforcing bars without hooks are used; the fact is due to the hooks did not significantly prevent end slips ...
In addition, graphical results from upper bound analyses are also provided to display the potential failure mechanisms of the footing-slope bearing system under seismic conditions. Introduction Footings constructed on top of slopes are often encountered in engineering practice, such as those for ...
