A mass of 500 kilograms is to be maintained in a position by pulling a rope taken over half a barrel and wrapped twice around a capstan as shown in the figure. If the coefficient of static friction is 0.2 for all contact surfaces, calculate the minimum force F required to maintain the load.
For the embedded strip footing (infinitely long in the out-of-plane direction) shown below, the maximum vertical pressure that the soil can bear before failure is 100 kPa (i.e., qmax should not exceed 100 kPa). What is the maximum overall eccentricity of the foundation in mm before failure? (answer tolerance = 2%). Consider γconcrete = 25 kN/m3, γsoil = 18 kN/m3 and assume that the width of the embedded column is negligible, and the entire top of the foundation is covered with soil. Hint: for a strip footing, the calculations should be conducted assuming a 1-m long footing in the out-of-plane direction.
