A planned flexible load area (see Figure P7.2) is to be 3 m × 4.6 m and carries a uniformly distributed load of 180 kN/m2. Estimate the elastic settlement below the center of the loaded area. Assume that Df = 2 m and H = . Use Eq. (7.4).
The cross section of a braced cut supporting a sheet pile installation in a clay soil is shown in Figure 14.22. Given: H = 12 m, clay = 17.9 kN/m3, = 0, c = 75 kN/m2, and the center-to-center spacing of struts in plan view, s = 3 m. a. Using Pecks empirical pressure diagrams, draw the earth-pressure envelope. b. Determine the strut loads at levels A, B, and C.
Determine the factor of safety against bottom heave for the braced cut described in Problem 15.18. Use Eqs. (15.66) and (15.70). For Eq. (15.70), assume the length of the cut, L = 18 m. 15.18 Refer to Figure 15.51 in which = 17.5 kN/m3, c = 60 kN/m2, and center-to-center spacing of struts is 5 m. Draw the earth pressure envelope and determine the strut loads at levels A, B, and C. FIG. 15.51
