Q2. If you were, ask to concrete 2mx2m foundation of 400mm depth with column of 300mm x 200mm and 1500mm height and you need to list all the WBS for such footing. Answer the flowing: 1. Sketch this footing using scale 1:100 fuorle
A proposed building column will carry a maximum downward unfactored load combination is 250 kips and a service load of 185 kips. The column is to be supported on a square footing at a depth of 7 ft. in silty sand with the following engineering properties: y=119 lb/ft³ above the groundwater table and 122 lb/ft³ below, c'=0, '= 32°, and Neo-30. The groundwater table is 15 ft. below the ground surface. The allowable settlement da is 0.75 inches. The ASD factor of safety is 2.5. Determine the design of the footing width clearly identifying if it is controlled by settlement or bearing capacity.

You are planning to build a three story above ground building with a basement parking garage below ground. The bottom of your slab/foundation will be 17 ft below existing grade. You plan to keep the ground water level in the excavation 3.0 ft below the bottom of the foundation for approximately 3 months. The water table is 11 ft below existing grade. The soil is uniform medium sand down to a depth of approximately 50 ft. The soil below 50 ft is an impervious clay. Your excavation will be 320 ft x 150 ft. You have determined that a 4 ft wide x 3 ft deep sump around the perimeter of your excavation will provide adequate dewatering capacity. Based on test wells on site, you determined that the medium sand has a k value of .058 ft/min and that the D factor is 50 ft. a. Label D, H, and ht on the given diagramb. Calculate the flow rate, q c. Calculate the total volume of water that will need to be pumped in gallons per minute (GPM)

13. A column is to be supported by a 2.0 m wide square footing that is buried 1.0 m from the ground surface. The soil beneath the footing is sand with an effective cohesion of 0, an effective friction angle of 32 degrees, and a unit weight of 18.5 kN/m. The groundwater table is 20 meters below the ground surface. Compute the maximum allowable column load if the factor of safety against a bearing failure must be 2.5.
Question: A 75 kN column load makes an angle of 12 degree with vertical. The column load will be supported on a square footing located at depth 1 m below the ground surface. The soil beneath the footing is a clay soil which has a unit weight of 18 kN/m3, a cohesion coefficient is 20 kPa with no friction resistance. The groundwater table is located at depth 0.5 m below the ground surface. Determine the minimum footing width to maintain a factor of safety 2 against bearing capacity failure using the Vesic's method.
