Abstract
Randolph (1994) was proposed simplified estimated equations to carried out the proportion of load between the components of piled-raft foundation. These equations are based on elastic theory. Therefore, Authors focus on the point of applicability for nonlinear behavior of soil. This paper is a part of study on behavior of piled-raft foundation under considering the nonlinear behavior of ground. Authors already discussed the effect of nonlinear behavior of soil on the equations by Randolph. In addition, as the extension of research, authors also discussed the applicability of these equations for irregular raft shape. However, foundations were rarely set in an ideal homogeneous single soil layer in our previous studies. Therefore, the applicability of these equations are discussed in case of inhomogeneous soil (Gibson soil) in this paper.
