About this document

1977 - Shields Et Al - Bearing Capacity of Footing On Slopes by vince.gingoyon is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This paper reviews two theories regarding the bearing capacity of spread footings near slopes and presents experimental results from tests conducted on a continuous strip footing in sand fill. The findings indicate that theoretical predictions do not accurately reflect the magnitude or distribution of bearing capacity, particularly highlighting differences between the Meyerhof and Giroud theories. The research aims to inform bridge design by demonstrating potential economies through the use of spread footin
