Abstract

At a constant pressure, the settlement of compact foundations (square, round foundations) is less than that of strip foundations, other conditions being equal. The transition from square and circular foundations to rectangular and strip foundations and the increase in the aspect ratio increases the possibility of transverse displacement of soil from under the foundation and correspondingly leads to the development of high settlement values. This paper presents the results of the research to find solutions which ensure minimization of building and structure settlements and their nonuniformity. It is revealed that the use of compact foundations makes it possible not only to reduce the value of settlement, but also to avoid its large irregularity.     &nbsp
