Abstract
This article presents the solutions for displacements and stress of layered generalized Gibson subgrade subjected to an axisymmetric surface load. We assume that the material has constant Poisson’s ratios (μ=0.5), and its shear moduli varies linearly with depth. During the solutions, the Hankel transform in a cylindrical co-ordinate system is employed. The relationship between the solution and half-space solution is also examined and discussed. At last, the analysis flow is presented .
