In the case that a footing is overloaded just like in the situation that new stories are added to an existing building,to account for the Soil's bearing capacity properties the area of the footing is increased by casting the required additional contact area so that the bearing Capacity will check.
Ok,now that we enlarged the contact area,dowels should be provided between the old and new parts of the footing to make sure they Two parts work together.
Can anyone please tell me how can I calculate/assign these dowels?what are the criteria to meet?

Does any one has the Fortran source of CRISP geotechnical program as had been published in the book:
"critical state soil mechanics via finite elements" by Britto and Gunn (1987) ? ... That would save me a huge retyping effort.
The catalogue contains up-to-date materials standards specifications.

I am doing my Masters in research work and i have taken a topic of Non linear finite element analysis of Reinforced concrete structural components. Can anyone suggest me of what type of research i can do using this and if there are any books, journals or research papers please guide me to complete the research work that i have taken. Looking forward for a positive result from this forum.
