The document describes experiments performed to determine shape factors and bearing capacity factors of sand. Small footings were tested on fine sand placed in a way to ensure uniform density. Tests were done with and without overburden pressure applied by inflated rubber bags. Formulae for shape factors were deduced from the results. The bearing capacity factors Nc and Nq were also examined in relation to relative density.
