This paper presents the results of modeling tests of the Effect of Confinement Pressure on footing bearing capacity of two kinds of square and strip footing. Footings bearing capacity depends upon many factors including soil kind, depth, form and kind of loading. Soil behavior is variable regarding the kind of loading and the kind of deformations in that can have great importance in the amount ...
