Abstract
A method has been formulated for bearing capacity of footings on two layered soils with varying cohesion, friction, and unit weight based on the second theorem of Drucker and Prager (kinematical consideration). The failure mechanism considered was fundamentally similar to that of Prandtl–Terzaghi but with different wedge angles. The critical wedge angles were found in each case. Bearing capacity charts for footings are presented by varying cohesion in layers, with the same friction angle and unit weight. The charts are readily usable for any combination of c2/c1, d/b, φ, and γ.
