Hi all,

Are there any empirical formula to convert soil bearing capacity to the soil subgrade modulus????

And what is the relationship between subgrade modulus of soil and the settlement of buildings?? I have analysed a case whereby if u decrease the subgrade modulus, the settlement of the building increases and the soil pressure decreases. Is this phenomenal accurate theoretically??

thx

newbie in engineering
