Chapter 16, Problem 16.3P

Redo Problem 16.1 with the following: γ = 115 lb/ft3, c′ = 1100 lb/ft2, ϕ = 35 ° , Df = 3.5 ft, B = 5 ft, and factor of safety = 4.

16.1 A continuous footing is shown in Figure 16.17. Using Terzaghi’s bearing capacity factors, determine the gross allowable load per unit area (qall) that the footing can carry. Assume general shear failure. Given: γ = 19 kN/m3, c′ = 31kN/m2, ϕ = 28 ° , Df = 1.5 m, B = 2 m, and factor of safety = 3.5.

2. A continuous footing is shown in the figure. Use the Terzaghi's bearing capacity equation with the given values: y = 155 pcf, c = 615 psf, p = 28°, Df= 1.8 ft, B = 2.3 ft, and F.S. = 3 qu = CNc + yDiNg + 0.50yBNy a. Determine the gross allowable load per unit area that the footing can carry, in kN/m². b. Determine the net allowable bearing capacity with bearing capacity with a factor of safety of 3, in psf then covert it to kPa. Determine the gross allowable bearing capacity with a factor of safety of 3 with respect to shear failure, in kPa. C.
