Abstract
This paper focuses on the development of an android-based mobile application by the name ‘Ground IQ’ for foundation works in the field of civil engineering. The first stage involves manual calculation of safe bearing capacity of soil based on codal provisions of IS-6403 [1] and equations developed by Terzaghi [2]. Its value is compared with that which is obtained as a result from the application developed. In the second stage, the computed SBC is used to design footing or foundation on the site from where the soil sample is collected. The design can be then compared with that obtained from the application developed and checked for accuracy. The Integrated Development Environment (IDE) or the platform used for the development of this application is Android Studio which supports Java programming language for coding.
