Abstract This study investigates the bearing capacity of soil, a crucial parameter in foundation design, using the Geo5 software. Accurate bearing capacity determination is essential for ensuring the stability and safety of structures. This research explores various established theoretical approaches for calculating bearing capacity, including IS Code, Terzaghi’s method, and compares their results with numerical solutions obtained from Geo5 as per Indian, British, and European Standards. The study analyzes the influence of key soil parameters, such as cohesion, angle of internal friction, and unit weight, and foundation geometry, including shape, size, and depth, on the ultimate bearing capacity. Furthermore, the research evaluates the applicability and accuracy of Geo5 in simulating complex geotechnical scenarios. A real-world case study, involving a specific foundation design and soil profile, is analyzed using Geo5 to demonstrate the practical utility of the software in geotechnical engineering practice. The comparison between theoretical and numerical results provides insights into the strengths and limitations of both approaches, highlighting the importance of considering various factors and methodologies in bearing capacity analysis. The findings of this project contribute to a better understanding of soil behavior under foundation loads and provide valuable guidance for geotechnical engineers in designing safe and economical foundations.
