The article presents the results of analytical numerical calculations of the cruciform foun- dations under the uniformly distributed load. The distributions of the stresses and displace- ments in active zone of the cross-shaped foundations are featured. The comparison of experi- mental and analytical settlements of complex form foundations is carried out. Multifactor power dependences are gained to define the settlements of cruciform foundations on cohesive and non-cohesive soil basement. The ability of the effective foundation forms using the condi- tion of the maximum allowable settlement is featured.
