Q1/A strip foundation is required to carry a total load of 1556 KN. The water table locate at 2.35m below the base of foundation. Determine the maximum depth of foundation that satisfy the bearing capacity equation?. (Use Terzaghi equation) Note: Ya = 16 kN/m³ Factor of safety = 3 Width of foundation = 2.65 m Length of foundation = 1m. 00 = 30 C = 27 Assume the allowable bearing capacity is equal to the actual bearing capacity (actual).
I need detailed help solving this exercise from homework of Foundation Engineering. I do not really understand how to do, please do it step by step, not that long but clear. Thank you!
Q2/A (3m x 6 m) rectangular flexible foundation is placed above the ground surface for two layers of clay, for each layer 6 m thick. The modulus of Elasticity (Eu) of the upper layer is 10 MN/m² and that of the lower layer is 20 MN/ m².The Poisson ratio is (μs = 0.4) for the two layers. The pressure of 100 kN/ m² is distributed along the surface of foundation. Determine the immediate settlement at the corner of the foundation using Elastic theory method?
