Sliding Resistance
Sliding Resistance
(OP)
I am designing a grade beam foundation, and wanted to check its sliding resistance. I know that I have to considered friction and lateral earth pressure, but I am not sure to what surfaces of the grade beam I need to apply this lateral earth pressure to. Thanks

If I ignore lateral pressure, then the sliding resistance will just be based on weight of foundation and friction which is small compared to base shear. I dont know what to do.
