When people talk about soil bearing capacity, it often sounds complicated, full of charts, codes, and laboratory testing. But in real-world construction—especially small to medium-scale residential and commercial projects—engineers rely on practical experience, site behaviour, and conservative assumptions. That’s where the 5 ton/m² (≈100 kN/m²) rule comes from. It’s not random. It’s not optimistic. It’s […]
