Footing Resting on Clayey Slopes
Many previous studies analyzed the footing resting on cohesionless soil slopes. The present study focuses on determining bearing capacity on clayey soil slopes through the finite element method associated with limit analysis. The soil consistency has been varied from soft to hard. The bearing capacity and slope factors representing the slope effect on bearing capacity are presented in the study. The bearing capacity factor enhances with an increase in the soil strength, footing depth and setback. The slope factor increases with setback and reduces with footing depth and slope inclination. The increase in bearing capacity with footing depth is relatively less visible in the sloping ground than level ground. Contrary to this, the increase in bearing capacity with soil strength is more visible on slopes.
