Experimental study on the behavior of eccentrically loaded circular footing model resting on reinforced sand
Abstract In this study, an experimental investigation has been conducted on a circular footing model subjected to eccentric load resting on the geonet-reinforced sand. To this end, five series of tests were carried out in order to evaluate the effect of reinforcement dimension and eccentricity on the bearing capacity, settlement, and rotation of the footing. Results show that the bearing capacity ratio (BCR) is in direct relationship with eccentricity and the impact of soil reinforcement at low settlements is much more significant in the case of eccentric loading. Additionally, the bearing capacity interaction diagram and variation in the position of rotation line at different load levels for reinforced and unreinforced conditions are presented.
Highlights The yield surfacepresented for various reinforcement dimensions The variation in the rotation line position presented for different load levels The impact of soil reinforcement on the circular footing subjected to eccentric load is more significant than axial loading Reduction factor (Rf) drops almost linearly in the cases of the reinforced situation When the tilt angle is less than 0.02 radian, BCRt is higher than corresponding BCRs.
