Bearing capacity analysis using the method of characteristics

Using the method of characteristics, the bearing capacity for a strip footing is analyzed. The method of characteristics leads to an exact true limit load when the calculations of the three terms in the bearing capacity formula are consistent with one collapse mechanism and the soil satisfies the as...
