Dartis Foundation calculates bearing capacity of shallow foundations considering both shear failure and settlement. Meyerhof, Vesic, Hansen and other well_known methods are employed for the determination of shear failure. Elastic, primary and secondary consolidation settlements can be calculated using various options.

General Features

• Fine calculations report, including formulas and step_by_step calculations.
• Supports “SI” units.
• Introduction of unlimited soil layers.
• Determination of the bearing capacity of shallow footings with different dimensions considering shear failure and settlement (Elastic, Primary & Secondary Consolidation).
• Calculation of settlement corresponding to the allowable pressure.
• Presentation of load-settlement graphs.
• Saving files with minimal size.

Shear Failure

• Employment of various methods.
• Alteration of general the factor of safety.
• the water table effect is applied.
• Load eccentricity and inclination can be applied.
• Plain_Strain correction of friction angle can be applied.
• Option for calculating cohesion, unit weight, and friction angle of soil based on soil layers.

Settlement

• Alteration of allowable settlement.
• Flexible and rigid footing types are available.
• Option to ignore elastic settlement when consolidation settlement is calculated.
• Elastic settlement calculations are performed by 3 methods; Schmertmann (1978) and Theory of elasticity for granular soils and Janbu (1956) for saturated clay.
• A specified fraction of consolidation settlement will be taken into account by the user’s will.
• Option to calculate three dimensional effect by Leonards (1974) method for primary consolidation settlement.
