    This document compares the load bearing capacity of clay soil and sand for supporting timber walls and planks. Clay soil is able to support a higher load of 1000kg distributed over a 48.3x4mm circular hollow section before reaching a deflection of 100mm, compared to sand which reached its limit at 500kg. Both soil types supported a timber wall and plank structure, but clay soil had a greater load capacity.
