Centrifugal Model Tests for Ultimate Bearing Capacity of Footings on Steep Slopes in Cohesionless Soil
The study consisted of developing and testing a technique for centrifugal modeling of shallow spread footings located on or near slopes; experimentally determining the maximum bearing pressure of four prototype shallow spread footings using scaled models; and comparing test results with state-of-the-art analytical solutions. Test equipment was fabricated to permit model footings to be loaded and their response to be measured at accelerations 100 times that of gravity. The model test results were compared with the results of theoretical solutions obtained using limit analysis, limit equilibrium analyses, a semiempirical method, and methods incorporating slip-line solutions.
