Abstract
This paper presents the comparison between the proposed theoretical prediction and experimental results of horizontal and vertical permanent displacements, and tilting angle of small rigid square and rectangular footings on relatively uniform sand. Old and new lumped parameters for different modes of vibrations, i.e. horizontal, vertical and rocking vibrations are used in the analysis. Some good agreement is found between the theory with the new lumped parameters and experiments, but the relevant dynamic soil properties are still the most critical parameters that need to be measured. Finally, effects of frequency and rocking heights are also investigated.
