What is the load bearing capacity of Graval?
The bearing capacity of gravel depends on it's level of compaction and also on the presence of pore water.*However the following presumed values for bearing capacity have been quoted in text books:A,+Compact gravel and compacted sandy gravel - 600 kPaMedium dense gravel and sandy gravel - 200-600 kPaLoose gravel and sandy loose gravel - 200 kPa.*NB These presumed bearing capacities are for footings with a width (B) greater than 1m and where the depth to the phreatic surface is greater than B below the base of the footing.+ There are a number of empirical formulations used in geotechnical engineering to calculate bearing capacity of footings on soils however they cannot be reproduced effectively here.A Cobb, F.
