Normal and shear stress measurements on a strip footing
Keyword(s):
This paper deals with the choice, calibration, and use of earth pressure cells in the measurement of the contact stress distribution across a strip footing. The footing was 30 cm wide, rough, and rigid; the measurements were made in a laboratory with the footing bearing on compact to dense, air dry, uniform, crushed quartz sand.Typical test results are compared with the theoretical distributions of both shear and normal stresses that have been proposed by various authors.
