The document shows a table of computed support coefficients from analyzing beams on mounds. The table varies the values of ∆/ym and ky/m and lists the resulting support index C for center and edge heave. Support coefficients range from 0.38 to 1.00 depending on the variables. The analysis is based on previous work by Walsh and recommends using minimum section beams with a support coefficient range of 0.98-1.00.
