Content • Eccentrically Loaded Foundations • Foundations with two-way eccentricity • Field Load Test
Effect of Eccentricity Q = total vertical load on the foundation M = moment on the foundation e = M/Q
Effect of Eccentricity Meyerhof’s Principle Of Effective Area Method
Ultimate Load with Eccentricity Step 1: Find Eccentricity, If e ≤ B/6 If e > B/6
Ultimate Load with Eccentricity Step 2: Determine the Effective Dimensions If eccentricity is in the direction of B B΄= B – 2e L΄ = L If eccentricity is in the direction of L B΄= B L΄ = L – 2e
Ultimate Load with Eccentricity Step 3:Use general equation to calculate the soil ultimate bearing capacity q'u= c΄ Nc Fcs Fcd Fci + q Nq Fqs Fqd Fqi + 0.5 γ B΄Fγs Fγd Fγi USE B΄ to calculate: Fcs , Fqs , Fγs DON’T use B΄ to calculate: Fcd , Fqd , Fγd
Ultimate Load with Eccentricity Step 4:Determine the total ultimate load: Qult = qult A΄ = qult B΄ L΄ Step 5:Factor of safety against bearing failure:
Example 1 For the footing shown below, determine the ultimate vertical loading with an 0.15 m eccentricity using the general formula. Take Nq = 18.4, N = 22.4.
Two Way Eccentricity USE B΄ and L΄ to calculate: Fcs , Fqs , Fγs DON’T use B΄ and L΄ to calculate: Fcd , Fqd , Fγd
Two Way Eccentricity Case I: eL/L ≥ 1/6 and eB/B ≥ 1/6
Two Way Eccentricity Case II: eL/L < 0.5 and 0 < eB/B < 1/6
Two Way Eccentricity Case III: eL/L < 1/6 and 0 < eB/B < 0.5
Two Way Eccentricity Case IV: eL/L < 1/6 and eB/B < 1/6
Example 2 Refer to Example 1 and the figure shown below to determine the ultimate vertical loading using the general formula.

Example 3 Refer to the accompanied figure for the results of a plate load test on a sandy soil. Define the dimensions of a square footing to carry a load of 2500 kN with a permissible settlement of 25 mm. The test plate is 1’ in diameter.
