What is Ultimate Bearing Strength of Soil about?
Engineers calculate the bearing capacity of soil to determine how much weight or load the soil can safely support for building foundations. They use formulas to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity, taking into account factors like soil cohesion, density, moisture, and composition. Engineers apply a safety factor of 1.5-3 to account for uncertainties, with higher factors used for structures where failure would be more hazardous. Methods involve laboratory testing of soil samples and properties.
