Evaluation of Undrained Bearing Capacities of Wide-Shallow Bucket Foundation with Honeycomb Bulkheads in Clay

Table 1

Notation for loads and displacements.

	Vertical	Horizontal	Rotational
Displacement			θ
Load	V	H	M
Uniaxial capacity	Vult	Hult	Mult
Bearing capacity factor	NcV = Vult/Asu0	NcH = Hult/Asu0	NcM = Mult/ADsu0
Dimensionless load	V/Asu0	H/Asu0	M/ADsu0
Normalized load	= V/Vult	h = H/Hult	m = M/Mult

Note. A = πD²/4; s_u0 is the undrained shear strength at the foundation bottom level.
