Abstract
In the present paper, a method of analysis for calculating the pressure intensity corresponding to a given settlement for a rectangular footing resting on reinforced soil foundation has been presented. The process has been simplified by presenting non-dimensional charts for the various terms used in the analysis, which can be directly used by practicing engineers. An empirical method has been suggested to find out the ultimate bearing capacity of footing on reinforced soil. The results have been validated with large-scale model tests also. The procedure has been made clear by giving an illustrative example.
