An investigation of correlation factors linking footing resistance on sand with cone penetration test results [PDF]
, 2012 Significant research effort has led to improvements in our ability to estimate the ultimate bearing resistance of footings in sand. These techniques often estimate the footing resistance at relatively large displacements, typically 10% of the footing ...
