A note on some plasticity solutions relevant to the bearing capacity of brittle and fissured materials

Conventional stability analysis which only requires the input of two strength parameters of the material, c and ϕ, may lead to an unreliable estimate of the bearing capacity of a mass of rock because of two main factors.
