چکیده

This paper describes the immediate settlement of uniformly loaded rough ring footings with any stiffness on an inhomogeneous finite layer overlying a rough rigid base, which is not yet covered in the literature. Numerical solutions for a wide range of geometric and material combinations are obtained by finite element method. The effects of dimensionless parameters related to footing internal opening, compressibility, footing stiffness, finite layer thickness and soil inhomogeneity are examined. Based on the results, design charts are presented in the form of settlement influence factors that can be used to calculate the immediate settlements at the inner and outer points of ring footings.

Probabilistic settlement analysis of rectangular footings L'analyse de règlement de probabilistic de fondations rectangulaires

By modeling soil as a three-dimensional spatially random material, the reliability of shallow rectangular footings against serviceability limit state failure in the form of excessive settlement can be estimated. The methodology to be used is the 3-d random finite element method (RFEM) which combines finite element analysis with random field theory, where the mean, the standard deviation and the...

Effect of footing shape on the settlement of rectangular and I-shaped rocking shallow foundations

Cumulative settlement is one of the primary potential detrimental aspects of rocking foundations. It has been well documented that if the factor of safety against bearing failure is not very large (e.g., less than five or so), settlement can become significant. A series of footings of different shapes were subject to lateral slow cyclic loading on the centrifuge to study the effect of shape on ...
