CODE OF PMCTICE FORDETERhf~ATION OF BREAKING CAPACITY
OF SHALLOW FOUNDATIONS
( First Revision)
O. FOREWORD
0.1 This Indian Standard ( First Revision ) was adopted by the IndianStandards Institution on 30 January 1981, after the draft finalized by theFoundation Engineering Sectional Committee had been approved by theCivil Engineering Division Covncil.
0.2 The bearing capacity of foundations is needed for dimensioning thefoundation for any structure. Several methods are available for thedetermination of bearing capacity of shallow foundations anti thisstandard gives some of the methods which are commonly used for thepurpose. Comparison of the results shows that when each of the variousmethods is applied to different problems no one method consistently giveshigher or lower values of allowable bearing pressure. The designer musttherefore regard the methods as aids to design which cannot replace thecritical role of engineering judgement.
0.2.1 This standard was first published in 1971. The principal modi-fications ‘made in this revision are: (a) keeping its terminology in line withthat of other related Indian Standards, (b) giving’ generalized equationsfor calculation of ultimate bearing capacity, (c) including cone penetra-tion methods and (d) deleting adjustment for fine sand and silt.
0.3 For the purpose of <irciding whether a particular requirement ofthis stmdard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated,expressing the result of a test or anaiysis, shall be rounded off inaccordance with IS: 2-1960*. The number of significant places retainedin the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified valuein this standard.

1. SCOPE
1.1 This standard covers the procedure for determining the ultimatebearing capacity and allowable bearing pressure of shallow foundationsbased on shear and allowable settlement criteria.
2. TERMINOLOGY
2.0 For the purpose of this standard, the following definitions shallapply.
2.1 Tersrss Relating to Bearing Capacity
2.1.1 Net Loadinx Intensity — The net loading intensity on the foundationis the gross inttnsity of loading minus the weight of displaced soil above
the foundation b:tse.
2.1.2 lrltimatc Bearing Capacity — The irltensity of loading at the baseof the foundation which would cause sitear failure of the soil support.
2.1.3 Safe Bra ring Capacity — Maxirnunl intensity of loading that thefoundation will safely carry without the risk of shear failure of soilirrespective of any sert!ement that may occur.
2.1.4 Safe B~aring Preswre or Net Soil Pressure for spectjird settlement -
The iiltensity of )oading that will cause a permissible settlement or speci-fied settlement of the structure.
2.1.5 Allowable Bearin~ Capactty — The net intensity of loading whichthe found ati{~rl will carry without undergoing settlement in excess of rhepermissible value for the structure under consideration but not exceedingnet safe bearing capacity.
2.2 General Terms
2.2.1 Dmsip Index ( Relative Density ) — The ratio of the differencebetween the void ratios of cohesionless soil in the loosest state and anygiven state to the difference between its void ratios at the loosest anddensest states.
2.2.2 Efective Surcharge at the Base Level of Foundation — The intensityof vertical pressure at the base level of foundation, computed assumingtotal unit weight for the portion of soil above the water table and sub-merged unit weight for the portion below the water table.
2.2.3 Footing — A structure constructed in brickwork, masonry orconcrete under the base of a wall or column for the purpose of distribut-ing the load over a larger area.
2.2.4 Foundation — That part of a structure which is in direct contactwith so”il and transmits loads into it.
4
IS 6403:1981
2.2.5 Shallow Foundation — A foundation whose width is greater thanits depth. The shearing resistance of the soil in the sides of the found-ation is generally neglected.

4. GENERAL
4.1 Sufficient number of undisturbed samples, about 40 to 100 mm indiameter or more or block samples should be obtained, where possible.These samples are for the determination of field density of soil andconducting tests for determining the relevant shear and consolidationparameters of the soil. Tests on soils shouId be conducted in accordance
with relevant parts of IS : 2720*.
I4.z Position and fluctuation of water table should be ascertained.
Reference may be made to 1S : 1892-1979t and 1S :2132-1972$ for
guidance regarding investigations and collection of data.
5. ULTIMATE NET BEARING CAPACITY
5.0 General — Three types of faihtre of soil support beneath thefoundations have been recognized, depending upon the deformationsassociated with the load and the extent of development of failure surface.

They are: a) general shear failure, b) local shear failure and c) punch-ing shear. The choice of which method of analysis is best suited in agiven situation is difficult to make, because only limited test data areavailable on full sized tlxmdations to verify the reliability of the computedbearing capacity. However, guidelines given in relevant clauses may beused for guidance. Wherever possible bearing capacity calculationsshall be made on the basis of shear strengtk parameters # and c obtainedfrom appropriate shear tests [ sw IS :2720 ( Parts XI and XIII)*] orfrom plate load test results as given in IS: M@N81t Oi from staticcone peuetratiou resistance ge obtained from static cone penetration testas given in IS : 4968( Part 111 )-1976$.

The modi%d dimension shallbe used in the bearing capacity equation and m determining theeffective area of the footing in resisting the load.Double ficentrici~ — If the load has double eccentricity m and en )wit h respect to the centroid of the footing then the effectivedimensions of the fating to be used in determining the bearingcapacity as well as in computing the effective area of the footingin resisting the load shall be determined as given below:
L’=L-2u=
