In this paper, the nonlinear behavior of soil has been studied. For this purpose, the modified Cam clay model has been employed. The foundation taken for this study is a strip footing of width (B=2.0 m) resting on the surface of silty clay soil. A two-dimensional finite element problem has been taken as a plane strain problem. The displacements and stresses under the strip footing during applied incremental loading sequences has been estimated by a program written in MATLAB. The influences of incremental loading, width of footing, and depth of footing are considered in this paper.
