摘要
Design charts that enable quick determination of the probability distribution parameters related to the ultimate bearing capacity of shallow foundations resting on (c = 0) soils are developed. These charts are intended to assist foundation designers and analysts in studying the reliability of structures as related to the capacity of the foundation system. The approach presented herein provides a more reliable alternative to foundation design and analysis than the current conventional design procedure which employs the assumption of an appropriate factor-of-safety.
