Actual Bearing Pressure in Design of Steel Structures Formulas

Actual Bearing Pressure is the exact bearing capacity of the given structure, in simple words it is the ratio of the applied load to the contact area. And is denoted by f_p. Actual Bearing Pressure is usually measured using the Megapascal for Pressure. Note that the value of Actual Bearing Pressure is always positive.
