- Discuss the assumptions made in footing design of proposed structure in geotechnical engineering and analysis.Define factors affect soil permeability and water holding capacity?Please give a more detailed and correct solution with question C. The embankment for a highway 5097 ft long, 104 ft wide and 6 ft in compacted thickness is to be constructed from a sandy soil trucked from a borrow pit. The water content of the sandy soil in the borrow pit is 6.748% and its porosity is 0.422. The specification requires the embankment be compacted to a dry unit weight of 122.874 lb/ft3. The specific gravity is 2.588. Determine the following: a. Total weight of the soil solids, kips. b. Total volume of the soil required from the borrow pit, ft3. c. Weight of water to be added per foot length of the embankment to reach 10% moisture content, lb.Round off answers to three decimal places.
- solve both the questions please. Subject: Performance of Structures and Materials. Question-4 . Discuss the additional loading considerations relating to an earth retaining structure. Question-5 .Discuss drainage systems in the context of earth retaining structures and the additional structural design considerations where retained earth is undrained.Which law for water traveling through soils can be applied to determine the rate and quantity of flow and the seepage forces that result from this flow?What is The criteria used to evaluate the vulnerability of clay-type soils to earthquake?
- 1# List 5 steps that geotechnical engineers should follow to construct and monitor an earth dam. 2# Working in teams of three engineers determine which of the three options (A, B or C) is best for the included concrete dam based on the following criteria: Producing an acceptable factor of safety to prevent piping failure (i.e., icrit) Producing an acceptable factor of safety to prevent uplift failure4. What problems should be paid attention to in earthfill construction, and describe the main factors affecting the compaction of earthfill?A twenty-story hospital building with a 400 ft x 200 ft footprint is to be built on a site underlain by fill over glacial sands. The building will have a 25-ft deep basement and will probably be supported on either a mat foundation located 5 ft below the bottom of the basement, or a deep foundation extending about 100 ft below the bottom of the basement. The groundwater table is about 30 ft below the ground surface and bedrock is about 120 ft below the ground surface. There are no accessibility problems at this site. (a) How many exploratory borings will be required as per NYC Code, and to what depths should they be drilled? (b) How would you obtain groundwater data? Explain your answer.

Express your concepts by outlining the following: How sustainability and climate change can be addressed.Based on the given design criteria, and without carrying out any preliminary calculations, develop a conceptual design of the three types of foundations as described above. Express your concepts by outlining the following: How the construction processes and challenges, and repair and maintenance can be minimized.a). The government of Ghana through the infrs agreement has secured funding for the construction of an interchange at Takoradi to ease traffic flow within the Takoradi Metropolis. In order to get the required number of road way, it is intended to provide partitions in the form of retaining walls. A consultant was engaged to design these retaining walls. A 4.5m high cantilever retaining wall has been designed. The fill consists of two different cảiesionless materials as shown in Figure 4. The unit weight of concrete, ve-24KN/m²and friction angle between concrete base and the underlying soil is 20. The underlying soil has a friction angle of 28 and cohesion of 50kN/m Ignore the effect of the front fill material on the stability of the wall -20KN'm 20kNm 2.5m Y=19kN/m 4.5m 14m Y=17.5kN/m 0.90m 0,6m 2.5m Figure 4 a).
