Module 3 : Method of Analyses

Lecture 14 : Methods of Characteristics [ Section 14.4 : Inclined Load --- Bearing Capacity Factors ]

Here we get some value of instead of

This equation is valid only for inclined force & below foundation.

There is no effect of inclined load on Rankine passive zone &

; if ; Vertical load is acting.

Bearing capacity Factor

Since C = 0, = 0, So we have to find out.
