How to find Bearing Capacity of Soil
Analytic method i.e. through bearing capacity equations like using Terzaghi equation, Meyerhof equation, Hansen equation etc. Correlation with field test data e.g. Standard penetration test (SPT), Cone penetration test (CPT) etc. On site determination of bearing capacity e.g Plate load test, Pile load test. Presumptive bearing capacity (recommended bearing capacity,
