 Foundations may be modeled as flexible-base foundations using uncoupled spring model (discrete approach).  Using a new analytical procedure that takes into account the influence of foundation settlements in the analysis and design. The solution using the first method gives greater values in the elastic settlements compared to the second method. The new method allows the user to take into account the effect of consolidation settlement in clay soils, which greatly affects the results of the analysis and design. The analysis accounting for this effect can reveal inadequate soil characteristics to set up the building and/or can help to make a decision to change the type of the foundations.
