Abstract
In some practical cases during the design of a foundation, ring configuration can be more preferred in comparison to the solid circular footing due to some field or topographical constraints. To address such issues and to reach a viable solution an experimental program was undertaken. This paper depicts the experiments conducted to study the load-settlement behaviour of ring footings on granular soil; under axial loading condition through Plate Load Test. The chosen ring footing was the special cases of the solid circular footing (Diameter 150mm); both having same contact area. The ring diameters chosen to achieve the same surface area are (in terms of Dinner-Douter) 60-160mm, 100-180mm, 200-250mm. The ring Diameter ratio for each are n=0.375, 0.555, and 0.8 respectively. The Objective was to analyze the effect of increasing ring diameter ratio on the load-settlement behaviour while keeping the contact surface area same. The results show that bearing capacity of footing starts decreasing reasonably up to n=0.375 and afterward there is a steep decrease for n=0.555 and n=0.8.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
