I am having a question on Earth Pressure. What analysis and thing need to be take care in designing foundation of a building such as shed? I do have the test report of such proposed area.


Thx
 
You except in low bearing capacity sites will have some recommended depths and recommended allowable pressures there. This allows you to perform a footing or continuous footing design, typical for mot factories in non problematic sites. You have sheets of free download to perform all such designs in the Mathcad Collaboratory site, civil engineering folder.
