A 481 mm square pedestal is to be supported by a 2.08m by 5.75m footing. It is to carry an axial dead load of 563 kN and an axial live load of 904 kN and a lateral live load of 104kN acting parallel to longer dimension of footing and 1 m from the top of the footing. Thickness of footing is 520mm. Unit weight of concrete = 24 kN/m³;Unit weight of soil = 15 kN/m3. . Hint: (Moment from lateral force = Force x distance from the bottom of the footing).

Please answer it asap for an upvote. Thank you. Given that the cohesion in the soil is 17 kPa and the angle of internal friction is 13 degrees, what is the gross allowable load (kN) of the rectangular footing with a width of 1.55 m and a length of 3.17 m. Assume γsoil = 18.40 kN/m3, γsat = 20.42 kN/m3. The axial load is offset 0.54m from the left end of the footing. The depth of the foundation is at 1.40m and the GWT is at 0.79m. Factor of safety is 3.5.

The pad footing is used to support the load of 12000 lb. Determine the intensitie (in lb/ft) w1 and w2 of the distributed loading acting on the base of the footing for the equilibrium.
A combined rectangular footing is composed of exterior column 450 mm x 600 mm and interior column 600 mm x 600 mm. The 600 mm face of the exterior column coincides the edge of the footing .The depth of the footing is 1.2 m and the bottom of the footing is 1.8 m below the ground. The exterior column carries a service liveload of 510 kN and a service deadload of 790 kN while the interior column carries a service liveload of 820 kN and a service dead load of 1100 kN. Unit weight of soil is 18 kN/m³. Allowable soil pressure is 290 kPa and an additional surcharge of 4.8 kPa placed on the ground surface. Center to center distance of column is 5.5 m. Effective soil pressure at the bottom of the footing is the allowable soil pressure minus the surcharge, pressure due to soil and pressure due to footing. 1. Which of the following most nearly gives the effective soil pressure? a. 265 kPa b. 271.52 kPa c. 245 kPa d. 255.23 kPa 2. Which of the…
How to solve the problem, I hope you can help me, Thank you.
Civil Engineering Old MathJax webview Q.1 A strip-footing is 60 ft long and 10 ft wide. The strip-footing has a rectangular shape beam which is monolithically cast with the footing. There are three columns those are separated by 30 ft and supported by the beam. If, bearing capacity of the soil is 10000 kg/m2, then draw the shear force and bending moment diagram of the beam only. The determine the section of the beam.

A rectangular footing with dimensions of (6 m x 3m) is founded at a depth of 1.5 m from natural ground surface and carrying a colum that shefted from the footing centroid by (es. 0.75 m and on- 0.5 m). The footing is rested on cohesionless soil with the followin properties (37 and y- 17.8 kN/m'). What is the net allowable load that can be apllied on the column with factor of safety of 3 by using Meyerhof's bearing capacity equation.
