bearing failure mode of footings on loose or compressible soil in which the footing sinks by shear around its edge without a full slip surface.

In geotechnical engineering, punching shear failure refers to bearing failure mode of footings on loose or compressible soil in which the footing sinks by shear around its edge without a full slip surface. This meaning comes from Vesić (1973) in Journal of the Soil Mechanics and Foundations Division.[1]
