A planned flexible load area (see Figure P7.2) is to be 3 m × 4.6 m and carries a uniformly distributed load of 180 kN/m2. Estimate the elastic settlement below the center of the loaded area. Assume that Df = 2 m and H = . Use Eq. (7.4).
Why is it so difficult to process MSW?
Redo Problem 12.30 assuming that the water table coincides with the top of the fill and that sat(fill) = 19.8 kN/m3. If the other quantities remain the same, what would be the downward drag force on the pile? Assume ' = 0.5fill. 12.30 Figure 12.49a shows a pile. Let L = 15 m, D (pile diameter) 305 mm, Hf = 3 m, fill = 17.5 kN/m3, and fill = 25°. Determine the total downward drag force on the pile. Assume that the fill is located above the water table and that = 0.5fill.
A driven closed-ended pile, circular in cross section, is shown in Figure P12.7. Calculate the following. The ultimate point load using Meyerhof’s procedure. The ultimate point load using Vesic’s procedure. Take Irr = 50. An approximate ultimate point load on the basis of parts (a) and (b). The ultimate frictional resistance Qs. [Use Eqs.

Two materials, A and B, are to be separated using two unit operations, 1 and 2. The feed has 10 tons/h A and 4 tons/h B. The split (fraction of material rejected by each operation) is given in Table P5-14. a. Which sequence of operations, (l?2) or (2?1), will yield the greatest recovery of material A? b. What will be the purity of material A using that sequence? c. What will be the efficiency of separation for the entire process train with regard to material A using the Worrell-Stesed equation?
A steel pile (H-section; HP 310 125; see Table 12.1a) is driven into a layer of sandstone. The length of the pile is 25 m. Following are the properties of the sandstone: unconfined compression strength = qu(lab) = 80 MN/m2 and angle of friction = 36. Using a factor of safety of 3, estimate the allowable point load that can be carried by the pile. Use [qu(design) = qu(lab)/5].
Redo Problem 12.20 using Vesics method, assuming that the skin friction is distributed uniformly along the shaft. 12.20 A 600 mm diameter and 25 m long driven concrete pile carries a column load of 1200 kN. It is estimated that the shaft carries 900 kN and the point carries 300 kN. Determine the settlement of the pile head using the Poulos and Davis method with the following data: Es = 25 MN/m2, Ep = 30,000 MN/m2, and s = 0.2
