Pricing Excavation and Backfill

Backfill, in construction, is the activity of returning the soil and gravel that are removed during building construction or using them again to toughen and support the foundation of the building or any other structural component.

A cut slope was excavated in sand. The slope is shown in following attachment . To find the properties of the sand, representative samples were taken for the soil and tested in atriaxial apparatus. A consolidated drained triaxial test was conducted. The result is given below:Chamber pressure = 103 kN/m2Deviator stress at failure = 234.6 kN/m2We know the unit weight of the sand is 16 kN/m3.Use the ordinary method of slices (use 7 slices) and estimate the factor of safety against sliding forshown slip surface and comment on the calculated factor of safety.Please note that:1. The figure is not in scale. You may resketch it in scale and calculate the factor of safety2. The slip surface is circular and passes through the toe of the embankment

An excavation is rapidly made on site as depicted in the Figure below. The soil wedge above the critical slip surface is divided into thirteen slices. Based on the ordinary method of slices, calculate the ratio (R/S) between the Resisting Force (R) and the Driving Force (S) for slice #3, shortly after the excavation is completed. (Acceptable tolerance = 4%). The geometry of slice #3 and the soil properties are provided in the tables below. The height of water at the middle of the slice is hw = 3.0 m. Note that the total weight of the slice is equal to the weight of the saturated soil below the water table plus the weight of the moist soil above the water table. Hint: the weight of slice #3 is 495 kN
