Shallow foundations

This function enables the computation of limit and allowable bearing capacity of shallow foundations according to the following authors:        

•Terzaghi & Peck

•Meyerhof

•Schmertmann

•Herminier

 

Deep foundations (Driven piles)

This function calculates the bearing capacity of deep foundations (Driven piles) in tons, using Meyerhof’s method, that uses the similarities in behaviour of the penetrometer probe drive with that of driven piles.
