Design of Shallow Footing Question: (See Photo) Note: Avoid rounding off values in the course of solution proper as much as possible.
Given the properties of the footing below:
Unit weight of soil = 15.57 kN/m
Unit weight of concrete = 24 kN/m3
Saturated unit weight of soil =
19.67 kN/m3
cohesion = 25.5 kPa
friction angle = 30 degrees
B = 1.36 meter
Df = 1.7 meter
Pdead = 670 kN (Dead load)
%3D
Pive
= 805 kN (Live load)
thickness of footing = 469 mm
%3D
e/B = 0.27 --> one way eccentricity
Calculate the maximum ultimate bearing pressure (in kPa) due to applied loads.
