Analysis of square and rectangular footings subjected to eccentric-inclined load resting on reinforced sand

In the present paper, a method of analysis for calculating the pressure intensity corresponding to a given settlement for eccentrically and obliquely loaded square and rectangular footings resting on reinforced soil foundation has been presented. The process has been simplified by presenting non-dimensional charts for the various terms used in the analysis, which can be directly used by practicing engineers. An approximate method has been suggested to find out the ultimate bearing capacity of such footings on reinforced soil. The results have been validated with the model test results. The procedure has been made clear by giving an illustrative example. (A)
