A circular tank of 6 m diameter is to be constructed at a site with the soil profile (2 m sand overlying 4 m clay) shown in Figure 3 below. The water table is 2 m below the surface (i.e. at the sand-clay interface). The circular tank will apply a loading of 200 kN/m2 Circular tank - (z = 0 m) Sand (z 2 m) Pt A (z 3 m) Clay (z 4 m) Pt B (z 5 m) (z...
A group pile in clay is shown in the figure below. Determine the maximum vertical load Qg can be applied if the allowable consolidation settlement of the pile group is set to be 0.2 m. Use the 2: 1 stress distribution method to estimate the average effective stress in the clay layer.

Q8 An oil tank, 20 m in diameter, is to be built on a site where the soil profile consists of 4 m of dense gravel overlying 3 m of clay overlying rigid impermeable rock, and the water table is 1 m below the soil surface. If the tank applies a uniform pressure of 100 kPa to the surface of the soil calculate the differential settlement between the centre and perimeter of the tank after 1 year and after many...
Please, show step by step and clearly. problem 9.17, (Use 3 equally divided sub-layers for the 15 m clay layer). thanks please, resolve question 9.17 (Use 3 equally divided sub-layers for the 15 m clay layer) 9.16 The soil profile and the loading condition are given in the followin n) figure. Total new footing stress including the foundation at z 2 is 400 kN/m2. The soil profile has a rather thick clay layer (15 so that the layer should be...
4) Steady-state seepage condition exists in the vertical direction. For the piezometer condition shown, compute: a. Location of the water table in the sand layer above the top of the clay layer. b. Pore water pressure at point Sand Y= 17.6 kN/m3. k= 2.7 m/day 3 m 3.7 m 8.3m! I A 4.2 m c. Effective stress at point A. d. Total stress at point A. e. Rate of flow. 5.5 m Clay Y = 16 kN/m k = 0.01...
A new concrete water tank (unit weight= 24 kN/m3) with inner diameter of 13.8 m with 0.1 m wall thickness, and 9.0 m high is proposed for construction to cover the water shortage of government officers’ quarters that located near to an existing 6.0 m high concrete water tank with similar diameter. The existing water tank sits on a concrete foundation of diameter 15.0 m and thickness of 0.6 m which is below the finished surface level. The existing water...
