Effect of spatial variability on the bearing capacity of cement-treated ground

This paper presents a reliability assessment for the undrained bearing capacity of a surface strip foundation based on the results of a probabilistic study in which the shear strength and unit weight of cement-treated ground are represented as random fields in Monte Carlo simulations of undrained st...
