There buried rather thick upper Pleistocene series Q3 stratum in Shenyang area, including medium, coarse sand, gravel sand and round gravel, these stratums have stable distribution and biggish bearing capacity to be the foundation bearing stratum of high-rise structure, but not yet to use the bearing capacity more fully. This paper exploit the bearing capacity of sand and gravel in Shenyang through test and experiment of several typical projects, and give the available range of the bearing capacity characteristic number and deformation modulus, providing a basis for the rational utilization of good natural foundation, at the same time, proposes the research direction in future.
