In present study, kinematic approach of limit analysis is used to evaluate the seismic bearing capacity of strip footing. The bearing capacity of strip footings over two-layered soil is investigated. A MATLAB program was used for analyzing the bearing capacity values. Effects of various parameters on two layers of soil have been studied in various situations. Bearing capacity charts are presented by varying cohesion, angle of internal friction and unit weight. The charts can utilizable for any combination of c_1/c_2,?D_f/B_0,??_1/?_2,??_1/?_2. Numerical analyses were done by using PLAXIS 2D. The bearing capacity is compared with numerical values and it is seen that the results obtained are reliable.
