Summary: | The soil mechanic laboratory results help in accurate soil foundation design and enhancement
failure mitigation. The mixing soil design has been used in many geotechnical engineering for soil improvement.
In this paper, several types of soil foundations have been made from mixed soil. The bearing capacity of soil
foundations by using mixed soil parameters and change footing dimensions have been calculated. 180 footings,
placed on 15 soil foundation types have been designed. It is assumed the underground water has not effect to
bearing capacity of soil foundation. The results of numerical analysis and mixed soils technique have been
combined. The numerical analysis has supported mixed soil design, and introduced an appropriate result for soil
foundation design. The effects of mixed soil on depth and width of footing have been compared. The mixed
soil design influenced numerical analysis result, and economically, soil foundation design helps to select the
appropriate dimensions of footings. The result of numerical analysis supports geotechnical and structural
engineering codes, predicts structural stability with different age, natural hazard and prevention as well as it is
useful in understanding safe bearing capacity of soil foundation behavior. |
