Shear Stress 4. Please provide proper discussion and illustration. Clear and complete solution please thank you. Design studies for a planned building indicate that the foundation loading will cause the principal stress in the soil at one point below the building area to increase to 195 kPa and 70 kPa (major and minor principal stress values, respectively). If the soil is a dry sand having an angle of internal friction equal to 340, determine if the indicated stresses would cause shear failure to occur.

Design studies for a planned building indicate that the foundation loading will cause the principal stresses in the soil at one point below the building area to increase to 195 kPa and 70 kPa (major and minor principal stress values, respectively). If the soil is a dry sand having an angle of internal friction equal to 34°, determine if the indicated stresses would cause shear failure to occur.
Following Newmark example given in the image below, repeat the same considering loading at the center of the foundation
A building is to be constructed in an area where the ground surface is horizontal. The groundwater table at the site is very deep. For a point within the soil mass, 10 feet below the surface, the preconstruction vertical effective stress is 1,120 psf and the horizontal effective stress is 560 psf (consider these stresses to be principal stresses). After construction, the vertical stress at the same point will increase by 440 psf because of foundation loading and building use. Assume the horizontal stress will be unchanged. (a) Indicate the change to the maximum shear stress at the described point that will occur because of the construction. (b) Assume that after the building is completed and occupied, the groundwater table at the site raises to within 6 ft of the ground surface as a result of area rainfall. The vertical effective stress in the soil mass changes because of the high water table. Determine the maximum shear stress (effective stress conditions) at the analyzed point in the…

The wall footing shown in the figure is subjected to an ultimate linear load of Pu = 180 kN/m. The wall thickness is 97mm, thickness of footing is 300 mm, and width of footing is L = 1000 mm. What is the exact spacing of 10 mm main rebars based on flexural requirements of NSCP 2015? Consider as singly reinforced with f'c = 28 MPa and fy = 275 MPa. The Pu already includes the weight of the footing and soil. Pu NGL
