Abstract
This paper presents an experimental investigation aimed at promoting a greater understanding of the behavior of strip footing on oil-contaminated sand. Contaminated sand layers were prepared by mixing sand with the waste engine oil (WEO) content of 1 % by weight of dried sand. A series of conditions, including uncontaminated cases, was tested by varying parameters such as the thickness of the contaminated sand layer and eccentricity of loading. The effects of eccentric loading on strip footing on uncontaminated and oil contaminated sand bed were studied in an experimental setup. The load-settlement behavior of foundation on uncontaminated and oil contaminated sand bed was also studied and compared in terms of BCR. The bearing capacity ratio is decreased with increasing the load eccentricity and the depth of oil contamination for contaminated sand bed.
