Slip-Line Field Theory's Application in Soil Subgrade

Abstract:

Acquiring soil’s critical load is very important when designing soil foundation and soil subgrade with overloading method. Mohr-Coulomb strength theory is combined with slip-line field theory, then a theoretic method which is practicable to analyze critical load of soil come out. Analyzed theoretically and compared with others, the theoretic method is applied to describe the relationship between internal friction angel, internal cohesion, δ, lateral pressure and critical load, which express that this theoretic method is rational. Numerical analysis is adopted which make it clear that soil subgrade’s yield zone is small when it is under the critical pressure, which approve that this theory is very close to lower limit of soil’s critical load. The theoretical method can provide useful information to engineering designers and researchers.
