Re: Shear Failure of shallow foundation

Fellow engineers,

 

        I got four(4) copies of this.  Did others have the same experience?

Subject: Shear Failure of shallow foundation

Hi all,

Can anyone tell  the reason behind the codal provision of taking the critical section for failure of foundation in shear at a distance of d/2( d=thickness of foundation slab) from the face of column for punching shear and at distance of d in case of one way shear.

 

Thanks & Regards.
