A new method is presented for calculation of settlement under any rigid foundation. The method essentially computes the pressures that need to be applied to the soil surface to maintain a constant displacement across the extent of the footing. These pressures are computed for irregular shapes by assuming piecewise functionality. The calculated surface pressures are then applied and stresses throughout the soil are computed using a traditional Boussinesq method. Using these stresses, settlements can be computed at any point using a simple, one-dimensional settlement calculation. Examples are shown for foundations with different footing shapes and results are compared to analytical solutions and three-dimensional finite element models. RÉSUMÉ...
