  • Ultimate bearing capacity of shallow footings on plastic silt

    Creator:
    Newton, Vernon C.
    Abstract:
    The usual approach to calculation of the ultimate bearing capacity of plastic silt is to assume no porewater drainage occurs during the loading period. The coefficient of permeability of plastic silt is generally significantly larger than clay; therefore, partial drainage of porewater may occur during the loading period. This study...
