Abstract

Shell foundations have been used as an economic alternative to the conventional flat shallow foundations, in situations where heavy loads are to be transferred to weaker soil. Among the shells which have come into wider use in foundation, is the conical shell. The frustum of cone is probably the simplest form in which a shell can be used as foundations. This paper aims to study about a different foundation shape that reduces the foundation cost by reducing the required amount of concrete and reinforcing steel bars. Also, to achieve lower soil stresses by changing the foundation shape which will result in reduced settlements and foundation stresses. Analytical studies are performed on circular flat foundation and conical shell foundation using finite element software ANSYS 19.0 and their performances such as ultimate load carrying capacity and soil settlement characteristics have been compared.
