Session 28 : Modulus of subgrade reaction - Live technical discussion

#structuralengineering #geotechnicalengineering #civilengineering

Modulus of subgrade reaction is very important parameter for design of foundations. Following are some of the approaches which are being followed in the practice:

1) Approach 1 : Modulus of subgrade reaction is mentioned in the soil report.

2) Approach 2 : Modulus of subgrade reaction is not mentioned in the soil report and the value is derived in consultation with geotechnical engineer.

3) Approach 3 : Modulus of subgrade reaction is determined by the structural engineer based on the approximate formula.

It is preferred to follow the approach no. 1 & 2 since there are number of uncertainties involved while deriving the value of Modulus of subgrade reaction and geotechnical engineer is in a better position to suggest the same based on their engineering judgement.

In view of the above, next live technical discussion is arranged on this important topic wherein we will attempt to answer your specific queries/doubts related to the modulus of subgrade reaction.
