Soil Bearing Capacity Calculator

Estimate the allowable soil bearing capacity based on soil type, foundation depth, and factor of safety.

Formula:

Allowable Bearing Capacity (kPa) = (Cohesion × Nc + Unit Weight × Depth × Nq) / Factor of Safety
Where Nc and Nq are bearing capacity factors (use approximate typical values: Nc=5.14, Nq=1.0)
