Chapter 13, Problem 13.9P

Figure P13.9 shows a drilled shaft extending into clay shale. Given: qu (clay shale) = 1.81 MN/m2. Considering the socket to be rough, estimate the allowable load-carrying capacity of the drilled shaft. Use FS = 4. Use the Zhang and Einstein procedure.

A free-headed drilled shaft, shown in Figure 4, has an elastic modulus, Ep = 20,000 MPa. M, = 880 kN m Q = 245 kN, Sand at = 19 kN/m3 O' = 34° 1.2 m Figure 4 (a) Determine the ground line deflection, x.
Figure P10.7 shows a drilled shaft without a bell. Assume the following values:L1 = 6 m cu(1) = 50 kN/m2L2 = 7 m cu(2) = 75 kN/m2Ds = 1.5 mDetermine:a. The net ultimate point bearing capacity [use Eqs. (10.33) and (10.34)]b. The ultimate skin friction [use Eqs. (10.37) and (10.39)]c. The working load Qw (factor of safety = 3)
A 20 mm diameter hole is drilled on the centerline of a steel strap 50 mm wide by 5 mm thick, subjected to an axial pull P = 10 kN. Determine the approximate maximum unit stress adjacent to the hole. Hint: This is a stress concentration question. The first step is to calculate the K value. Select one: O a. 0.1 kN/mm? b. 0.0733 kN/mm? c. 0.146 kN/mm2
