Search for Bjerrum's correction factor in nearly any graduate level text. See Tomlinson's Foundation Design and Construction, 6th Edition, equation 2.45 and subsequent table. Many texts put the factors in a graph.

I'm fond of his texts. I first got ahold of his 3rd edition in 1976 and found that his explanations and presenation mixed the right 'experience' with the computational methods.
