Shallow foundations on expansive soils: a case study of the El Viso Geotechnical Unit, Salamanca, Spain
Abstract Construction on expansive soils can generally be resolved using piles. Where shallow foundations are used in these materials, the swelling pressure should be determined and the foundations designed to provide a greater pressure to counteract this. Clearly, it will also be necessary to determine the capacity of the ground to take this load. The paper discusses the bearing capacity of unsaturated expansive soils for a given suction value and notes the bearing capacity was increased by 26% when the effect of suction was taken into account. However, an increase in the water content would cause a decrease in suction and hence a decrease in the bearing capacity.
