A concentrically loaded isolated square footing of size 2 m $$\times$$ 2 m carries a concentrated vertical load of 1000 kN. Considering Boussinesq's t...

A concentrated vertical load of 3000 kN is applied on a horizontal ground surface. Points P and Q are at depths 1 m and 2 m below the ground, respecti...

Consider that a force P is acting on the surface of a half-space (Boussinesq’s problem). The expression for the vertical stress (σz) at any point (r, ...
