| Description: | Interactive calculators for the geotechnical and structural design of shallow foundations. The user selects a system of units (SI or US), a design theory (General Bearing Capacity theory or Terzaghi's Bearing Capacity theory), as well as a foundation shape (square, circular, strip, or rectangular) and the appropriate calculator is selected to simplify the process of foundation design. Keywords: shallow foundation, design, bearing capacity, surcharge, structural design, shear, foundation, shape, depth, inclination, civil engineering, structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, geological engineering |
