AbstractThe nonlinear response of shallow foundations when subjected to combined loading has attracted the attention of the research engineering community over the last few decades, providing promising evidence for incorporation of such response in design provisions. Failure in the form of soil yielding or foundation uplifting may accommodate high ductility demand and increase the safety margins of the whole structure. However, increased permanent displacement and rotation may occur. This paper explores the concept of shallow soil improvement as a means to locally increase soil strength and thus limit rocking-induced settlement. Bearing in mind that the rocking mechanism is relatively shallow, failure may be contained in a soil layer of known properties that extends to a shallow depth beneath the foundation. The performance of a system in poor soil conditions, on an ideal soil profile, and on improved soil profiles was explored through a series of centrifuge tests at the Center for Earthquake Engineering ...
