Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleFinite Element Study Using FE Code (PLAXIS) on the Geotechnical Behavior of Shell FootingsBujang B.K. Huat, Thamer A. MohammedThis study describes a study on the geotechnical behavior of shell footing 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 FE analysis also showed a reasonably good agreement with the laboratory experimental … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 7,884 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Performance of EPS Footing for Lightweight Farm Structure on Peat SoilMohammad Abdullah, Bujang B.K. Huat, Rezuwan Kamaruddin et al.The objective of this research project was to find a potential replacement for the conventional pile foundation principally for peat soil. It is fundamentally meant for lightweight and impermanent agricultural farm structures. Preceding the design and development of the foundation the physical characteristics of the in-situ peat such as; peat depth, soil consolidation, soil compressibility, water table, liquid limit, soil … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 7,239 accessesView PDF Cite
