Abstract
Accelerated testing of foundations subject to vertical-impressing and moment-induced loads in tamped trenches by loading them in individual steps to 0.5-0.7 of the assigned load (here, the settlement-load curve obtained is extrapolated to the design load), and also by their eccentric loading is described. Results are cited for tests of foundations in tamped trenches during construction of a number of entities in accordance with these procedures.
