Abstract

All six stress components in the foundation bed of a semi-infinitely long strip situated on the surface of an elastic half space and subjected to a uniform vertical load are found as a result of solution of the three-dimensional problem. The distribution of these stresses in the foundation at the end of the strip, and also a certain distance from its is investigated, and the expediency of their consideration demonstrated in solving certain design problems.
