FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS OF BI ANGLE SHAPED SQUARE FOOTING UNDER TWO WAY ECCENTRIC LOADING
Abstract: Footing subjected to eccentric loading along two mutually perpendicular axes is quite a common field problem. Due to this bearing capacity is reduced considerably as the effective size is drastically reduced. A footing may be subjected to two-way eccentricity due to many reasons. In the case of footing subjected to one-way eccentricity the common practice is to match the centre of gravity of column loads to centre of gravity of …

EFFECT OF FLY- ASH AND CEMENT ON EXPANSIVE SOIL FOR FLEXIBLE PAVEMENT DESIGN
Abstract: Out of the many types of soils that prevail on the Earth’s crust Expansive soils are observed to be highly problematic by nature. Particularly under conditions of loading, these soils are highly prone to fail due to shear, crushing or excessive settlement. These factors end up expansive soils as unsuitable soils for any construction. If the strength of the soil is poor, then soil stabilization is duly needed. Stabilization is …
