Soil Bearing Pressure Analysis
Calculate soil bearing pressure under compressor foundations including static weight and dynamic loading from unbalanced forces. Industry recommends target bearing pressure <1,500 psf with maximum allowable of 2,000 psf for typical soils. Includes safety factor verification against site-specific allowable capacity.
