Abstract

Equations are proposed for calculation of foundation settlements and the rates of their increase in the nonlinear stage of bed-soil deformation. The possibility of using bed reserves with respect to pressures is supported on the condition that the settlement is equal to the limiting allowable. The latter makes it possible to permit foundations with smaller dimensions; an example of the calculation is discussed.
