Question
A circular footing is 2.50 meters in diameter. The bottom of the footing is 2.97 m. below the ground surface. Moist unit weight of soil is 18.23 kN/m3, Saturated unit weight is 20.98 kN/m3. Cohesion of soil is 94 kPa. Use Nc = 25.96, Nq = 12.97, Ny = 8.26. If the ground water table is located at a depth of 1.09 meters from the ground surface
- Determine the ultimate bearing capacity in kpa
- Determine the allowable load in kN that the footing can carry. FS = 3.0. Round off to two decimal
- Determine the allowable bearing capacity in kPa, that the footing ca carry FS = 3. Round of to two decimal
