...B. M. Lehane; C. Gaudin; D. J. Richards; M. J. Rattley This paper describes results from a series of uplift tests performed in a drum centrifuge on shallow square footings founded on clay and sand, with an overlying sand backfill. The test series investigated footings of various widths loaded...

... = π 4 − ϕ 2 The nature of the stress field underlying the footing is strongly influenced by the symmetry condition that requires that the major principal stress direction be vertical on the centreline through the footing (ϕ = 90°). When γ = 0 and the base is smooth, the well...

...R. L. Michalowski Limit analysis of square and rectangular rough footings is presented in this paper. All mechanisms of failure considered in the analysis consist of four regions, each characterised by plane deformation. However, the geometry of the mechanisms is three-dimensional. Both continuous...
