Bearing Capacity (Single Layer)

The SBC-Single Layered spreadsheet is set up to calculate Bearing pressure of single layered soil. Although this is an idealized case and is seldom a practical soil stratification, this sheet can be used to compare bearing capacity values computed by following methods:

  • Mayerhof (1963)
  • Terzaghi (1943)
  • Hansen (1970)
  • Vesic (1975)
  • Mayerhof (1956, 1974) - Correlated from SPT
  • Schmertmann (1978) - Correlated from CPT
