Chapter 11, Problem 11.49P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The effect on the bearing capacity load of the brick by incorporation of small amount of alumina into the bricks should be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Load bearing capacity − This is general term used in soil. The load bearing capacity is defined as the capacity of the soil against the applied load by the foundation. Without displacement, the maximum average weight can be determined by the load bearing capacity.

This load bearing capacity mainly affects the density, shear strength and permeability also.

Types of bearing capacity −

  1. Ultimate bearing capacity
  2. Safe bearing capacity
  3. Gross bearing capacity

Assume a Space Launch System (Figure 1(a)) that is approximated as a cantilever undamped single degree of freedom (SDOF) system with a mass at its free end (Figure 1(b)). The cantilever is assumed to be massless. Assume a wind load that is approximated with a concentrated harmonic forcing function p(t) = posin(ωt) acting on the mass. The known properties of the SDOF and the applied forcing function are given below. • Mass of SDOF: m =120 kip/g • Acceleration of gravity: g = 386 in/sec2 • Bending sectional stiffness of SDOF: EI = 1015 lbf×in2 • Height of SDOF: h = 2000 inches • Amplitude of forcing function: po = 6 kip • Forcing frequency: f = 8 Hz Figure 1: Single-degree-of-freedom system in Problem 1. Please compute the following considering the steady-state response of the SDOF system. Do not consider the transient response unless it is explicitly stated in the question. (a) The natural circular frequency and the natural period of the SDOF. (10 points) (b) The maximum displacement of…
