Refer to Figure P6.4. A strip load of q = 900 lb/ft2 is applied over a width B = 36 ft. Determine the increase in vertical stress at point A located z = 15 ft below the surface. Given: x = 27 ft. Figure P6.4
A beam is part of the framing system for the floor of an office building. The floor is subjected to both dead loads and live loads. The maximum moment caused by the service dead load is 45 ft-kips, and the maximum moment for the service live load is 63 ft-kips (these moments occur at the same location on the beam and can therefore be combined). a. If load and resistance factor design is used, determine the maximum factored bending moment (required moment strength). What is the controlling AISC load combination? b. What is the required nominal moment strength for a resistance factor of 0.90? c. If allowable strength design is used, determine the required moment strength. What is the controlling AISC lead combination? d. What is the required nominal moment strength for a safety factor of 1.67?
EB and FG are two planes inside a soil element ABCD as shown in Figure 10.50. Stress conditions on the two planes are Plane EB: EB = 25 kN/m2; EB = +10 kN/m2 Plane FG: FG = 10 kN/m2; FG = 5 kN/m2 (Note: Mohrs circle sign conventions for stresses are used above) Given ; = 25, determine: a. The maximum and minimum principal stresses b. The angle between the planes EB and FG c. The external stresses on planes AB and BC that would cause the above internal stresses on planes EB and FG
For the data given in this problem, determine the magnitude of the active thrust on the wall retaining a c soil, using the procedure discussed in Section 16.10. Given H = 15.0 ft, c = 100 lb/ft2, = 26, = 115 lb/ft3, kv = 0, and kh = 0.3.
