An analytical formulation using the principle of minimum potential energy is presented to predict the flexural behavior of a rectangular plate resting in smooth contact with an elastic half space (soil medium) and subjected to a uniformly distributed load. The procedure accounts for interaction between the plate and the soil medium. Compatibility at the interface of the plate and soil medium is satisfied by integrating the Boussinesq's formula, which relates the contact stress and the soil surface deformation.
