Numerical study on the performance of shell footing

This paper describes a study on the performance of shell footings using a non-linear finite element analysis with a finite element code, PLAXIS. The shell footing is found to have a better load carrying capacity compared with the conventional slab (flat) footing of similar cross sectional area. The...
