Modelling of Circular Footing on Lateritic Soil
Journal Title: International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
This work modelled circular footing on lateritic soil. This was done by studying the relationship between bearing capacity of circular footing and fines content of lateritic soil. Lateritic soil samples were collected and subjected to laboratory tests, including tests leading to the determination of bearing capacity (using circular footing). Bearing capacity was determined for the natural soil samples. The samples were separated into fines and coarse components and later remoulded in varying proportions of fines: coarse content, from 0:100 in 10% increments. Bearing capacity was computed for all the remoulded soil samples. Regression analysis was then used to determine the relationship between the bearing capacity of circular footing and fines content of the soil. The model was found to be valid for the selected locations. G. O. Adunoye | O. A.
