Example 11 (TBEC 2018 section Z-I-2.1.): Reinforced concrete building with 6 floors and 1 basement will be constructed on a soil deposit with shear strength parameters of c, = 250 kPa and ou = 0°. Unit weight of the soil is given as 19 kN/m³. Depth of the foundation is 3.5 m and dimensions of the raft foundation is 14m x 19m. Under the static condition and with 1.4DL+1.6LL load combination, maximum foundation pressure is determined as 364 kPa whereas, in earthquake condition with 1DL+1LL+1E, maximum foundation pressure is given as 216 kPa. Calculate the ultimate bearing capacity by using General Bearing Capacity equations and determine whether the foundation is safe or not.
A rectangular footing 1.62 x 2.18 in plan. The soil supporting the foundation has a friction angle of 28 degrees and c = 19.03 kPa. The unit weight of soil us 16.10 kN/m3 and the saturated unit weight is 21.94 kN/m3. The bottom of the foundation is at 1.23 meter below the ground and the GWT to be 0.59 meter below the bottom of the footing. Assume the the load is inclined at an angle of 21.04 degrees from the vertical. Compute for the net bearing capacity if the factor of safety is 2.62. Use Meyerhof General Bearing Capacity
Q3- A raft foundation (12 * 8) m carrying a net pressure of 183 kN/m² is located at a depth of 3.8 m below the surface in deposit of dense sandy gravel 6 m deep. The water table is located at a depth of 4.3 m. Below the sandy gravel is a layer of clay 3.8 m thick which in turn is underlain by dense sand. The value of mv for the clay is 0.28 m²/MN. Determine the settlement below the center and below the corner of the raft due to consolidation of the clay.

The 2 m x 4 m rectangular foundation is built 1.15 m below the ground surface and carries a total load, Q of 345 KPa (including column load, weight of concrete, and weight of backfill soil. The surrounding soil deposit has a unit weight of 20.68 kN/m³. Required Determine the total vertical pressure at a depth of 10 m below Point A. Provide answer in kN/m², to the nearest 100th. Your Answer:
A square foundation is 2m x 2m in plan. The soil supporting the foundation has a friction angle of 25 degree and cohesion of 20KN/m. The unit weight of the soil is 17.5 KN/m. Determine the allowable load on the foundation with a factor of safety of 3. A weak soil extend from 0 to 2m followed by a stronger clay layer.
