Popis: Laterite is a soil which is having a high content of iron and aluminium and is mostly found in hot and wet tropical areas. They are formed through a process known as Laterization which is a combination of intensive and prolonged chemical process and leaching. The mineralogical compound of various samples of lateritic soils will be identified by carrying out microscopic analysis. The influence of mineralogical composition on bearing capacity will be investigated by carrying out laboratory scale load tests on model footings.
