Bearing Capacity Calculation

[STEEL MAN]

Any Geotech Engineers here can give insights. Which ones do you prefer Terzaghi or Meyerhof theories in bearing capacity calc? and why? I need this for a project Im working it seems, Meyerhof is a little conservative.

Well, if you ask me Meyerhof cares too much and Terzaghi does not care enough.
