  A methodology for the determination of bearing capacity of granular soils with plate loading tests

  By Diego Barbero, Monica Garello, Andrea Maroni, Alberto Tissoni

  Abstract: In granular soils, due to the inability to collect undisturbed samples of soil for geotechnical laboratory tests or the impracticality of carrying out dynamic penetration tests, highlights the necessity to find a useful approach in the engineering geological practice for the determination of bearing capacity. In these soils the determination of bearing capacity can be evaluated with several formula that necessary require the estimation of the friction angle: this leads …
