The problem concerning the relation between the intensity of an inclined uniformly distributed load and the displacement of a section of the boundary half-plane is considered in the article. The value of the load intensity, physical and mechanical properties of the media may be used to determine the displacement of the section of the soil mass boundary at any point of the lower half-plane. The authors have also identified a relation between the settlement value and the intensity of the inclined load. The value of the settlement, physical and mechanical properties of the media may be used to identify the intensity of the inclined load, applied to the pre-set section of the soil mass boundary.
