About this document
Soil Bearing Capacity Methods by Jose Antonio Paredes Vera is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document contains the results of analyzing the bearing capacity of shallow foundations using four different methods: Terzaghi, Meyerhof, Hansen, and Vesic. For each method, the inputs such as soil properties, foundation geometry, and safety factor are provided. The computations and results for ultimate and allowable bearing capacities are also shown. The Vesic method yielded the highest ultimate bearing capacity of 12,533 lb/ft^2.
