Abstract

Goals of this research have been the development of a user-friendly computer program for determination of soil bearing capacity for design of sallow foundation. In the hope of achieving these goals a computer program named BEARING has been developed. The program demands small effort from the user and provides the user with the ability to determine bearing capacity of soil. The analysis capabilities comprises of uniform soil layer and stratified soil layer (with stratification up to five layers).
