Compute the ultimate bearing capacity of a circular footing on a silt, using the following properties:
Properties:
Soil type: silt
Cohesion: 25 kPa
Friction Angle: 25 degrees
Total unit weight of soil: 18 kN/m3
Expected footing dimensions: 3 m diameter cicular footing for a circurlar tank, bottom of footing at 5 m below ground level
Very deep water table
Note:
- Use both Terzaghi and Meyerhof theories to justify your answer.
- If there is anything missing in the problem statement, feel free to assume it! (Engineering judgement!)

Problem 5-Bearing Capacity of Shallow Foundation (20 pts) For a square footing foundation, the following are given: B 3.0 m (width), D 1.2 m (depth). Y=20 kN/m3, = 32°, c' = 50 kPa, Use Terzaghi Equation and a factor of safety of 2.5 to determine the allowable bearing capacity and the maximum column load to cause bearing capacity failure. Assume that general shear failure occurs in soil. When Oar C S
Help please! Problem 2 Figure 2 shows a continuous footing a) Determine the ultimate bearing capacity () if H 1.5 m b) At what maximum value of H/B will the clay layer not have any effect on the ultimate bearing capacity ( of the foundation. Sand 1.2 m 1 18 kN/m3 φ' = 40° B=2m Clay30 kN/m2 Figure 2
PLEASE SOLVE İT WİTH GENERAL BEARİNG CAPACİTY EQUATİONS.Thank you ?.İt is so important for me like a midterm exam! Question 2: For the footing given below, calculate the ultimate bearing capacity (quor qr) and net ultimate bearing capacity (anr) of the footing given below using General Bearing Capacity Equation. General shear failure occurs in the soil and the relevant information are given below. The ground water is at a depth of 3 m below ground surface. It has been observed...
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...
