Problem 2 (a) A square footing is to be constructed in sand as shown he sketch below Determine the column load, P, which the footing will support when the footing is just safe against bearing capacity failure. Indicate the computations on which your answer is based. (15 pts) (b) Under the applied load, and for the footing width of 10 ft, would you expect the footing settlement to be less than...
A rectangular footing (1.5m x 2.0m) founded on sand.
The footing was designed using a factor of safety equal to 3.0 and
a design load of 1800 kN. When constructed the contactor displaced
the center of the column by 0.26 m away from the center of footing
in the long direction and the column was inclined 8o from the
vertical. Determine The factor of safety against maximum contact
pressure if q'u=890 kPa? unit weight of water=10kN/m3

2. A 5-ft square, 2-ft deep spread footing is subjected to a concentric vertical load of 60 k and an overturning moment of 30 ft-k. The overturning moment acts parallel to one of the sides of the footing, the top of the footing is flush with the ground surface, and the ground water table is at a depth of 20 ft below the ground surface. Compute the minimum and maximum bearing pressures, d show the distribution of bearing pressure in...

Question 3 (70) Design an isolated rectangular footing of dimension 4m x 5m. The gross pressure acting at the base of the footing is 150 kN/m2. Choose the depth of foundation such that the factor of safety is exactly 3 against shear failure. Also check against the permissible settlement (75mm) to ensure that the design is safe from the settlement criterion too. If the design is not safe against settlement criterion, then choose the proper...
3. The bearing capacity of shallow foundations (i.e. footings) depends on the soil shear strength (ie. ф and c). The ultimate bearing capacity (qultnei) of the soil is calculated using the following equation: Dr qult.net bearing capacity failure surface i. Frictional resistance along failure surface due to self-weight of soil below footing level footing level. Ny. No, and Ng are dimensionless bearing capacity factors that depend on the ii. Cohesive resistance along failure surface below footing level. iii. Frictional resistance...
Problem 3: You are reviewing the footing design for a hospital founded on clay soils. The code requires factor of safety to be minimum 3. The controlling column load is 130 kips. The proposed footing is square with a width of 5 ft. It is founded at a depth of 3 ft in a medium to stiff clay with undrained shear strength of 1100 lb/ft2 and y-127.4 lb/ft3. The groundwater table is at a depth of 2 ft. Is this...
