Results of experimental and numerical investigations of the stress-strain state of the bed of a slab foundation over a karst cavity are analyzed. A new method is proposed for analysis of slab foundations of buildings with a developed underground section on karstprone lands, which are distinguished from standard slabs by the fact that the maximum diameter of the karst cavity, for which the dome above the cavity is stable, is adopted as an analytical criterion.
