Silo Foundation According to the Modulus of Compressibility
Method
The use of this method for slab calculations is illustrated based
on the
example of a silo surface foundation. The four silo cells
transmit their loads
via nine columns to the 0.8-m-thick square
foundation slab
that rests on the layered subsoil.
