Abstract
Numerical analyses of contact task were made with FEM. The test sample for the task was a steel-fibre reinforced concrete foundation slab model loaded during experimental loading test. Application of inhomogeneous half-space was used in FEM analyses. Results of FEM analyses were also confronted with the values measured during the experiment.
Highlights
Foundation structure and subsoil are interdependent, and the effect of the foundation soil loaded with the topside structure cannot be neglected
All the charts clearly show that the inhomogeneous continuum model generates smaller vertical deformations than the homogeneous continuum model
The chart shows that compared to the model of homogeneous continuum model, the inhomogeneous continuum model is not as heavily dependent on the chosen geometric parameters of the subsoil model
Summary
Foundation structure and subsoil are interdependent, and the effect of the foundation soil loaded with the topside structure cannot be neglected. The test sample for the task was a steel-fibre reinforced concrete foundation slab model loaded during experimental loading test. The testing facilities are used for other experimental measurements of subsoil-structure interaction - the process, results and conclusions of other loading test are described in detail in [11].
