Question A series of unconfined compression tests in the zone of interest (from SPT samples) from a boring-log give an average qu = 200kpa. The soil is fully saturated (∅=0). Estimate the allowable bearing capacity
Question A square column foundation (figure 6.12) is to be constructed on a sand deposit. The allowable load Q will be inclined at an angle β =20° with the vertical. The standard penetration numbers N60
Question A series of large-scale footing bearing-capacity test were performed on soft saturated clay (∅ = 0). one of the tests consisted of a 1.5m square footing at a depth D = 1.5m. At a
Question A square footing that is vertically and concentrically loaded is to be placed and cohesion-less soil as shown in the figure. What is the allowable bearing capacity with factor of safety of 3 using terzaghi method. Assume the water content of soil
A square footing that is vertically and concentrically loaded is to be place on a cohesion-less soil as shown in the figure below, the soil and other data are given below. What is the allowable
