i asked this exact question three times and each time i get a different answer ? what is going on ??
Q#3: The average correcte N60 = 7 in the effective zone for a square footing (1m x 1m) located at a depth of 2m. Determine the maximum load that the foundation can carry safely if allowable settlement is 40mm. Note: Write the answer in word format Subject: Geotechnical Design
A strip footing carries a load 14506 lbs per foot of length. The footing has a width of 2.3 ft. Determine the increase in vertical stress directly below the center of the footing at a depth of 0.8 ft. Provide your answer in psf, to 2 decimal place. Do not include units in your response.
Repeat Problem 20.2 based on limit state design, using the factors given in Table 20.4. 20.2 A continuous foundation is required in a soil where c = 10 kN/m2, =26 and = 19.0 kN/m3. The depth of the foundation will be 1.0 m. The dead load and the live load are 600 kN/m and 400 kN/m, respectively. Determine the required width for the foundation based on allowable stress design with FS = 3, using Eq. (16.3) and Table 16.1.
Refer to Figure 5.2. Given: B = L = 1.75 m, Df = 1 m, H = 1.75 m, = 17 kN/m3, c = 0, and = 30. Using Eq. (5.6) and FS = 4, determine the gross allowable load the foundation can carry.
I do not understand the information given to me and what to do with it. Like I don't even know what equation we are supposed to be using this is for my soil mechanics class.
