CTE DB SE-C
The solution is based on Spanish standard CTE DB SE-C, where the bearing capacity of foundation soil is given by the formula:
where:
for d < 2,0m:
for H ≤ 0,1V:
where: | cu | - | total cohesion of the soil |
bef | - | effective width of the foundation | |
lef | - | effective length of the foundation | |
d | - | depth of the footing bottom | |
H | - | horizontal component of the resultant load | |
V | - | vertical component of the resultant load | |
γ1 | - | unit weight of the soil above the footing bottom | |
q0 | - | equivalent uniform load accounting for the influence of the foundation depth |
