- Estimate the allowable bearing capacity (in kPa - using the LRFD methodology) for a 2.25 m by 2.25 m square and 1 m thick concrete footing. The footing is founded at a depth of 5 m. The footing will be supported by a uniform clean sand layer with N60 = 35 (at a depth of about 2.0 m) and void ratio e = 0.40 (Specific gravity Gs=2.7). Groundwater is located 5 m below the foundation depth.

. Using the data from Problem 1, estimate the settlement in the sand layer using Hough’s Method. Assume the sand is clean and that N60 = 20. data: A clay layer, which is 3 m thick, is overlain by a sand layer which is 3 m thick and extends to the surface. The water table is 1 m from the surface. The sand layer has the following properties: e = 0.58, Gs = 2.65. The normally consolidated clay layer has...

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...
