PREDICTING THE SETTLEMENT AND LONG-TERM BEARING CAPACITY OF A BASE OF FOUNDATION OF FINITE WIDTH

摘要

The article shows that if the model proposed by A. Z. Ter-Martirosyan is used to describe shear deformations in a soil medium, and the Kelvin-Voigt model is used to describe volume deformations, the calculated settlement-time dependence is nonlinear and has a double curvature. The article presents an analytical solution to the problems of predicting settlement and long-term bearing capacity of a base of foundation of finite width using the above models.
