In an earlier post, we have discussed how to calculate the material for concrete? & now we are going to see how to calculate the…
The foundation has received the all loads like dead load, live load, seismic load, etc., which is distributed to column & it transfer to the ground. The entire pressure of the structure should not greater than the safe bearing capacity of soil (SBC).
The capacity of the soil that supports the structural load to the ground without any shear failure or settlement is called safe bearing capacity of the soil.
