Assessment of the Bearing Capacity of Foundations on Rock Masses Subjected to Seismic and Seepage Loads

Assessment of the Bearing Capacity of Foundations on Rock Masses Subjected to Seismic and Seepage Loads

It is usual to adopt the seismic force acting as an additional body force, employing the pseudo-static hypothesis, when considering earthquakes in the estimation of the bearing capacity of foundations. A similar approach in seepage studies can be applied for the pore pressure’s consideration as an e...
