Net Bearing Capacity of Long Footing in Foundation Stability Analysis

Go Net Bearing Capacity = (Alpha Footing Factor*Undrained Shear Strength in Soil*Bearing Capacity Factor)+(Effective Vertical Shear Stress in Soil*Bearing Capacity Factor Nq)+(Beta Footing Factor*Unit Weight of Soil*Width of Footing*Value of Nγ)

Maximum Bearing Pressure when Full Bearing Area of Sq and Rect Footings is Engaged

Go Maximum Bearing Pressure = (Axial Load on Soil/Area of Footing)*(1+(Loading Eccentricity 1*Principal Axis 1/(Radius of Gyration 1^2))+(Loading Eccentricity 2*Principal Axis 2/(Radius of Gyration 2^2)))

Maximum Bearing Pressure for Eccentric Loading Conventional Case

Go Maximum Bearing Pressure = (Circumference of Group in Foundation/(Breadth of Dam*Length of Footing))*(1+((6*Eccentricity of the Load on Soil)/Breadth of Dam))

Minimum Bearing Pressure for Eccentric Loading Conventional Case

Go Bearing Pressure Minimum = (Axial Load on Soil/(Breadth of Dam*Length of Footing))*(1-((6*Eccentricity of the Load on Soil)/Breadth of Dam))

Maximum Soil Pressure

Go Maximum Soil Pressure = (2*Axial Load on Soil)/(3*Length of Footing*((Width of Footing/2)-Eccentricity of the Load on Soil))

Correction Factor Nc for Rectangle

Go Correction Factor Nc = 1+(Width of Footing/Length of Footing)*(Bearing Capacity Factor Nq/Bearing Capacity Factor)

Correction Factor for Rectangle
