The bearing capacity of an infinite plate resting on elastic foundation is determined assuming that the plate material is rigid-plastic satisfying the Coulomb yield criterion. The sandwich idealization of the plate is utilized and the Coulomb criterion is developed for this plate. The bearing capacity is determined using the method of limit analysis. The analysis shows that the plastic bending of the Coulomb plate is associated with the development of compressive forces which increase the limit moment and therefore the bearing capacity. An example of applying the analysis results is given by determining the bearing capacity of floating ice sheets.

Static analysis of the stress-strain state of a plate on elastic foundation is made in two ways on the example of a reinforced concrete road plate 2PP30.18-30 series B3.503.1-1 intended for temporary roads. These plates are considered as a planar structure on an elastic foundation. The plates are calculated by the method of B.N. Zhemochkin using the Ritz method to determine plate deflections in the main system using the mathematical package «MathCad». Also the plates are calculated on the PC «LIRA». There are given the results of experimental and numerical studies in this article
