Bearing capacity of foundation soil

Verification analysis of the bearing capacity of foundation soil takes into account forces obtained from all already performed verifications of the overall stability of structure (limit states, factor of safety). To that end, the following relationships are used:

where: N - normal force acting in the footing bottom
d - width of wall heel
Rd - bearing capacity of foundation soil
e - eccentricity
ealw - allowable eccentricity
