Q.
The following are the results of a standard penetration test in sand. Determine the standard penetration numbers, (N₁)60(CORR), at the various depths given. Note that the water table is at depth 5.0 m. Assume that the average unit weight of sand is 15.5 kN/m³ above the water table and the saturated unit weight of sand is 17.81 kN/m³, while the unit weight of water = 9.81 kN/m³.

A standard penetration test has been conducted on a coarse sand at a depth of 16 ft below the surface. The blow counts obtained in the field were as follows: 0-6 in. (4 blows), 6- 12 in. (6 blows), and 12-18 in. (6 blows). The tests were conducted using a USA-style donut hammer in a 6 in. diameter boring using a standard sampler with the liner installed. The vertical effective stress at the test depth was 1500 lb.ft'. Determine N1.
A 6 in diameter exploratory boring has been drilled through a fine sand to a depth of 19 ft. An SPT N-value of 23 was obtained at this depth using a USA safety hammer with a stan-dard sampler. The boring then continued to greater depths, eventually encountering the groundwater table at a depth of 35 ft. The unit weight of the sand is unknown. ComputeN1,60, f′, and Dr at the test location, and use this data to classify the consistency of thesand.
The blow counts for an SPT test at a depth of 6 m in a coarse-grained soil at every 0.152 m are 10, 10 and 10. A donut automatic trip hammer and a standard sampler were used in a borehole 152 mm in diameter. The SPT N value is: O 1.8 O 2.5 O 3.20 O 4. 10
An SPT test was conducted in a dry sand (no ground water table) with a unit weight of 18kN/m3. The drill rig used had an energy efficiency rating of 60%. The recorded blow counts were 6, 7 and 8. The depth of testing was 6 m. Use the Liao and Whitman (1986) correction for overburden stress to determine the corrected SPT value at this depth. N60=? CN=? (use 3 decimals) N1(60)=?

A sand deposit has been identified beneath a site located adjacent to a river. The sand deposit is 15 feet thick and the top of the layer is 12 feet below the ground surface and overlain by a very stiff clay and is underlain by bedrock. The water level has been measured to be at a depth of 10 feet. The standard penetration resistance of the layer has been determined to be 12 blows per foot and a standard sampler was used; a drill rig with a safety hammer with an efficiency of 60% was used. The length of the drill rod is 10 meters and the borehole diameter is 5 inches (127 mm). The design earthquake has been designated as a moment magnitude 6-3/4 event on a nearby fault and the maximum ground acceleration is expected to be 0.40 g. The wet unit weight of the clay soils is 150 pounds per cubic foot and the wet unit weight of the sand soils is 180 pounds per cubic foot. The sands have 35% fines content according to a grain size analysis. Determine the cyclic resistance ratio, CRR. Use this…

Using the AASHTO resistance factors, select a diameter and depth for a single drilled shaft to support these design loads. Use a load factor of 0.9 on the weight of the shaft. Note there are many different diameter-length combinations that would be satisfactory, but select one that you think would be most appropriate.
