1 CE-632 Foundation Analysis and Design Ultimate earing Capacity The load per unit area of the foundation at which shear failure in soil occurs is called the ultimate t bearing capacity. 1
2 Principal Modes of Failure: General Shear Failure: Load / Area ment Settle u Sudden or catastrophic failure Well defined failure surface ulging on the ground surface adjacent to foundation Common failure mode in dense sand 2
3 Principal Modes of Failure: Local Shear Failure: Load / Area u1 Set ttlement u Common in sand or clay with medium compaction Significant settlement upon loading Failure surface first develops right below the foundation and then slowly extends outwards with load increments Foundation movement shows sudden jerks first (at u1 ) and then after a considerable amount of movement the slip surface may reach hthe ground. A small amount of bulging may occur next to the foundation. 3
4 Principal Modes of Failure: Punching Failure: Load / Area u1 Set ttlement u Common in fairly loose sand or soft clay Failure surface does not extends beyond the zone right beneath the foundation Extensive settlement with a wedge shaped soil zone in elastic euilibrium beneath the foundation. Vertical shear occurs around the edges of foundation. After reaching failure load-settlement t curve continues at some slope and mostly linearly. 4

18 Notes: 1. Notice use of effective base dimensions, L by Hansen but not by Vesic. 2. The values are consistent with a vertical load or a vertical load accompanied by a horizontal load H. 3. With a vertical load and a load H L (and either H =0 or H >0) you may have to compute two sets of shape and depth factors s i,, s i,l and d i,, d i,l. For i, L subscripts use ratio L / or D/L. 4. Compute u independently by using (s i, d i ) and (s il, d il ) and use min value for design. 18
19 Notes: 1. Use H i as either H or H L, or both if H L >0. 2. Hansen (1970) did not give an i c for φ>0. The value given here is from Hansen (1961) and also used by Vesic. 3. Variable c a = base adhesion, on the order of 0.6 to 1.0 x base cohesion. 4. Refer to sketch on next slide for identification of angles η and β, footing depth D, location of H i (parallel and at top of base slab; usually also produces eccentricity). Especially notice V = force normal to base and is not the resultant R from combining V and H i.. 19

21 Note: 1. When φ=0 (and β 0) use N γ = -2sin(±β) in N γ term. γ ( β) γ 2. Compute m = m when H i = H (H parallel to ) and m = m L when H i = H L (H parallel to L). If you have both H and H L use m = (m 2 + m L2 ) 1/2. Note use of and L, not, L. 3. H i term 1.0 for computing i, i γ (always). 21
