| description | This study describes a study on the geotechnical behavior of pad footing
shapes using a finite element code, PLAXIS. In determining the suitability of footing
to loadings, design criteria requires that the shapes and sizes should function
according to the soil and types of structures erected on it. Higher loading will require
bigger footing as this will give better support. Theoretically, a larger surface area will
disseminate the loadings and reduce possibility offailure. However, this is not
economical as more materials will be needed for the construction of the footing.
Footing shapes is hypothetically considered as a factor that might affect the
performance of footing. Non-linear finite element analyses based on a stress-strain
model were performed to obtain the load-settlement responses of axially loaded on
pad footings. It is essential since such design analysis, which is based on numerical
analysis, could have advantages in providing preliminary expected outcomes for the
modeling purpose. In conjunction to this matter, the potential ofPLAXIS V8 finite
element to predict the settlement of various shapes pad footing are performed
successfully. |
