Allowable Bearing Capacity Estimation
Calculating the allowable bearing capacity of soil for pad foundations using
Bowles correlations:
>>> from geolysis.bearing_capacity.abc import create_abc_4_cohesionless_soils
>>> bowles_abc = create_abc_4_cohesionless_soils(corrected_spt_n_value=17.0,
... tol_settlement=20.0,
... depth=1.5,
... width=1.2,
... shape="square",
... foundation_type="pad",
... abc_method="bowles")
>>> bowles_abc.allowable_bearing_capacity()
341.1
Other available shape, foundation_type, and abc_type can be found
in Shape,
FoundationType, and
[ABCType][geolysis.bearing_capacity.abc.ABCType] respectively.
