Relative Embedment Depth, D/B 



Figure 5-3. Holding capacity factors for cohesive soils under 

 long-term loading (from Beard, 1979). 



5.2.2 Cohesionless Soils 



No distinction is made between short-term and long-term loading in 

 cohesionless soils. Therefore, to estimate long-term capacity in cohe- 

 sionless soils, use Equation 5-2.
