Design a square single column footing to support an 18 inch square interior column reinforced with 8-#10 bars. The column carries an unfactored dead load of 245 Kips that includes weight of soil and weight of footing and an unfactored live load of 20 feet below finished grade. The footing is 10 feet by 10 feet and is 30 inches thick. The allowable soil pressure is 5000 psf, fe' 4000 psi and fy 60000 psi. Concrete used shall be sand...

Please write step by step clearly
Please design a cantilever concrete retaining wall for the height and soil as shown in the figure. The frost depth at the site is 2 feet. Consider the ultimate bearing capacity (qe) of the soil as 8 tsf. Provide a neat, labeled sketch of the wall that you have designed. Check the following design parameters: a. Factor of safety against overturning b. Factor of safety against bearing capacity c. Factor of safety against sliding...

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...

Q1 (10 marks) You have been asked to examine the bearing capacity of several different rectangular pad footings. The width of each of the footings is to remain constant wil vary. In order to reduce the number of calculations, you have decided to plot the ultimate bearing capacity against the length of the footing. The properties of the underlying soil profile are given in Table 1.1. The base of the footing is to be located 1 m below ground level...

Question 6 It is required to construct a 4 m deep underground carpark in the heart of the city of Melbourne without disturbing the surrounding area. The required excavation for the proposed carpark and also the adjacent ground condition are shown in Figure 6.1. As can be seen from the figure, the adjacent ground consists of a 2 m deep clay deposit, resting on a 2 m thick sand deposit, where stable soil could be found below the sand deposit...
