Abstract: A series of 1G loading tests under the plane-strain condition were conducted on stiff ground with continuous square voids with the view of shallow foundation on calcareous sediment rocks, which contain voids because of ...

Abstract: A series of large‐scale loading tests of square and rectangular footings on a naturally deposited dense scoria (a granular material produced by volcanic activities) was conducted in a pneumatic caisson. Standard penetration ...

Abstract: The effect of multiple voids on the yielding pressure of strip footing was numerically investigated by a two-dimensional plane strain finite-element method analysis. The results indicated that the failure zone developed ...
