2. Change the footing dimension in the question below to a strip footing with width of 6 ft. and find the settlement using Schmertmann's modified method to calculate the required settlement. Example 8-2: A 6 ft x 24 ft footing is founded at a depth of 3 ft below ground elevation with the soil profile and average N160 values shown. Determine the settlement in inches (a) at the end of construction and (b) 1 year after construction. There is no groundwater. The footing is subjected to an applied stress of 2,000 psf. Ground Surface Clayey Silt 3 ft Y = 115 pcf; N160= 8 Sandy Silt B = 6 ft 3 ft Y = 125 pcf; N160= 25 Coarse Sand 5 ft Yt = 120 pcf; N160= 30 Sandy Gravel 25 ft Yt = 128 pcf; N160= 68

Explain the conditions for assumed to determine seismic bearing capacity for strip foundations.
A 3 m square footing supports a vertical column load of 200 kN and two moment loads with axes parallel to the sides of the footing, each having a magnitude of 124 kN-m. The embed-ment of the footing is 1 m, and the groundwater table is at a great depth. Determine whether eccentric loading requirements will be met. If these requirements are not met, determine theminimum footing width, B, needed to satisfy these requirements.
Discuss the placement of equivalent footing for various soil conditions.
What is the difference between the thickness and effective depth of a given footing?
Develop a spread sheet to compute allowable total vertical column loads using the ASD methodand factored ultimate vertical column loads using LRFD. The spreadsheet should consider onlyvertical loads on a square or continuous footing bearing on single uniform soil. It should allowthe input of footing width, depth, water table depth, soil strength parameters, a factor of safetyfor ASD, and a geotechnical resistance factor for LRFD. It should compute the bearing capacitybased on both Terzaghi’s and Vesic ́’s methods.

Explain the concept of equivalent footing method.
You are assigned the foundation design of a 56'-0" inside diameter reinforced concrete process tank. Vertical walls are 1'-0" thick and 15 feet high, terminating at elevation 25.00. Bottom of wall is at elevation 10.00 and rests on the foundation slab. Exterior grade abutting the vertical tank walls is at elevation 22.00. The tank foundation slab is circular with a two foot extension all around the vertical tank exterior wall. Determine the minimum height of the foundational circular slab. For design purposes consider the groundwater to be saturated to sit grade. Determine the following: A) Buoyant force in pounds B) Minimum depth of foundation slab in feet
