Chapter 6, Problem 6.4P

Redo Problem 6.2 using the general bearing capacity equation [Eq. (6.28)].

A 5.0 ft wide square footing is placed at 3.0 ft depth within the ground where c′ = 200 lb/ft2, ф′ = 25°, and γ = 115.0 lb/ft3. Determine the ultimate bearing capacity of the footing using Terzaghi’s bearing capacity equation and the bearing capacity factors from Table 6.1. What is the maximum column load that can be allowed with a factor of safety of 3.0?

Determine the allowable pile load capacity of the 40 cm diameter driven concrete pile shown in the Figure (1). W.T. Figure (1) K=1 6=0.750 3 m 6 m K = 2 6=0.750 5 m Loose sand Y₁ = 16 kN/m², '= 30° Soft clay Year = 18 kN/m, 2 C= 15 kN/m² Dense sand Ysat = 20 kN/m², -40°
= The allowable working load on a prestressed concrete pile 21-m long that has been driven 356 mm (see Table 9.3a). into sand is 502 kN. The pile is octagonal in shape with D Skin resistance carries 350 kN of the allowable load, and point bearing carries the rest. Use E, = 21 x 10° kN/m², E, = 25 x 103 kN/m², p, 0.35, and = 0.62. Determine the settlement of the pile. ==
H.W.5: A beam section is limited to a width of 300 mm, and total depth h=500 mm, and has to resist a factored moment 405 kN.m.Calculate the required reinforcement, given f'c=28 MPa, fy=420 MPa. (As=6425mm, As'=2425 mm Ans)
