Scale effects in tests on footings
… particle size, in tests on vertically loaded footings. Two granular materials, namely, a silica rock flour and a Chatelet flint grit, which differed in nominal diameter by a factor of 50 but were otherwise practically similar in all other grain characteristics were used in this work. A …

Movements of footings and retaining walls
… of methods of estimating settlements of footings on sand and gravel, (2) to develop a procedure for estimating horizontal movements and rotations of footings without the need of determining soil modulus values, and (3) to develop a simple procedure for calculating movements of retaining …

Column Footings Strengthened with External Prestressing and External Wrapping Systems
… method is widely applied to strengthen bridge footings with structural deficiencies, where dimensions of footings are enlarged by adding new concrete segments. In the traditional method, connections at the contact surfaces are achieved by installing a large number of steel dowels and splicing …

Zur Zuverlässigkeit der Bemessung gegen Durchstanzen bei Einzelfundamenten
… the safety of punching design equations for footings. Around the columns large moments and vertical shear forces arise in the footings. These forces can cause a local shear failure, which is called punching shear failure. In general, design codes do not distinguish between the punching shear …

Capacidade de carga de fundações submetidas a esforços verticais de tração
… line foundation project - have been performed on footings and piers, permitting the comparison of the application of the principal theories to residual gneiss. These load tests have also been made possible a series of observations concerning the pulled out foundations. Particular emphasis is given …

Einfluss der Bodenreaktionskraft beim Durchstanzen von Einzelfundamenten
The punching shear capacity of footings varies significantly for different codes. The amount of the soil reaction to be deducted from the punching load differs from one code to another. The aim of the present investigation is to derive an advanced design model for the punching behaviour of footings …

Creep behaviour of shallow foundations on sand and its implication to soil–structure interaction
… prediction methods, the creep settlement of footings on sand is either ignored or accounted for using an arbitrary empirical multiplier, which has been identified as one of the major reasons for the poor predictability of these methods. The objectives of this study are to establish a method …

The effects foundation options have on the design of load-bearing tilt-up concrete wall panels
… are designed on three foundation systems: spread footings, continuous footings, and drilled piers. These two wall heights are typical for single-story or two-story structures and industrial warehouse projects. Spread footings and continuous footings are shallow foundation systems and drilled piers …

Effect of scale and spatial variability on surface foundation on sand
… the effect of combined loading on circular footings on sand. Combinations of vertical, horizontal displacement and rotation are prescribed to foundation base to simulate different degree of load eccentricities and inclinations. Normalized failure envelopes describing allowable combination of …

An Examination of an Ice House at Old Town Plantation
… Excavations in 1994 revealed the foundation footings of his home, the associated springhouse and his ice house. This thesis is an in depth examination of ice houses around the world comparatively and how these structures relate to the ice house at Old Town.

Segmented footing system evaluation
Foundation construction for spread wall footings normally involves constructing formwork, placing reinforcement, and pouring and curing concrete, regardless of footing size or the amount of anticipated load. Recently, the National Concrete Masonry Association (NCMA) has developed a complete …

Settlement of Structures on Granular Soils Subjected to Static and Earthquake Loads
… of database of static settlement records of footings on granular soils is presented. Records that involve settlement versus pressure relationships are used to develop an empirical method that explicitly consider, beside the other factors, the effect of stress level on settlement. The method …
