This paper is concerned with the applications of Boussinesq's problem of a transversely-isotropy. A normal stressσ_z is very important for evaluation of settlement. So using the previous results (Part II), the authors show the stresses for following normal loads. 1) Infinite line loading. 2) Finite line loading. 3) Uniformly distributed loads on a circular area. 4) Uniformly distributed loads on an infinite strip. 5) Uniformly distributed loads on a rectangular area. From above results, when various normal loads act to the surface of a transversely-isotropy, it is possible to estimate the distributions of vertical stress and deformation of it.
