The paper presents the prediction of ultimate bearing capacity of different regular shaped
skirted footing resting on sand using artificial neural network. The input parameters for the …

In this paper, we studied if geonets, when used for drainage purposes, can also contribute to
the bearing capacity of clay. For this purpose, extensive laboratory testing and numerical …

The present study investigates the performance of loosely skirted square footing resting on
multi-layered geo-grid reinforced medium dense sand under vertical concentric and …

In geotechnical engineering, the skirt shape is used to improve the load-settlement
characteristics of eccentrically loaded shallow footings. The vertical and horizontal insertions …

Footing foundation has been worldwide used in resisting light to medium load of structures.
Footing's design has to consider the bearing capacity and the settlement of soil below. This …

Various techniques of confinement and reinforcement on cohesionless soil under the footing
are proved to have beneficial effect. The present study investigates the behavior of loosely …

The use of a skirt, a vertical projection attached to the footing, is a recently developed
method to increase the bearing capacity of soils and reduce foundation settlements. Most of …

Researchers are increasingly focused on assessing various approaches to improve sandy
soil conditions for shallow foundation construction. The common ground improvement …

The bearing capacity and settlement of shallow foundations located on the pipe are usually
not acceptable in sandy soils. Therefore, in order to improve the performance of strip …

In the construction of civil structures, the strength of the foundation is of high importance.
Thus, engineers face many challenges, such as bearing capacity, settlement and high …
