Closure to “Axial Compression of Footings in Cohesionless Soils. I: Load-Settlement Behavior” by Sami O. Akbas and Fred H. Kulhawy
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Axial Compression of Footings in Cohesionless Soils. I: Load-Settlement Behavior
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The results of 167 full-scale field load tests were used to examine several issues related to the load-displacement behavior of footings in cohesionless soils under axial compression loading, including (1) method to interpret ...
Reliability-Based Design Approach for Differential Settlement of Footings on Cohesionless Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A probabilistic method is presented to estimate the differential settlements of footings on cohesionless soils, considering the uncertainties in both the load and capacity sides of the design equation. A random field ...
Axial Compression of Footings in Cohesionless Soils. II: Bearing Capacity
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An extensive database of full-scale field load tests was used to examine the bearing capacity for footings in cohesionless soils. Each load test curve was evaluated consistently to determine the interpreted failure load ...
Expanded Database Assessment of Design Methods for Spread Foundations under Axial Compression and Uplift Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper compiles two expanded databases—NUS/SpreadFound/919 and NUS/RockFound/270—to evaluate the calculation methods of foundation capacity, where the number is the number of load tests collated. The mean (bias) and ...
