    Soil Bearing Pressure

    Hi guys! is there a good source out there regarding calculation of soil bearing pressure (Bi-axial)? Im looking for a source that would be applicable for all regular foundation shapes, e.g. square, octagon, cirlce, n-sides, etc. Thanks!+

    this is OK, failure plane is at the interface between wall and slab... watch out for development lengths

    Development Lenghts

    Saw this at ACI 315-99 though its a little vague. My understanding is that the question i raised is OK as per ACI code. Please correct me if I am wrong..http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=9a04bb82-6b65-4604-b73b-cf878f03a903&file=ans.png

    Development Lenghts

    Sirs, Good Morning! Regarding development lengths, is it okay to ignore ldh for hooked bars but still hook it and let it equal to Ld for straight bars? For more details please see attachment Thank You in advance

    Tank Settlement Vs. SBC from Shear

    Hello!! I would just like to ask.. is it ok if Tank Load is greater than allowable soil bearing capacity (ex. Tank Load = 18ton/sq.m, SBC = 14 ton/sq.m) as long as it passes allowable settlement criteria? Thanks in advance!!
