Chapter 7, Problem 7.12QPP

A 5 ft wide, 8 ft long, 3 ft deep footing supports a downward load of 200 k and a horizontal shear load of 25 k. The shear load acts parallel to the 8 ft dimension. The underlying soils have c ' = 220 lb/ft 2 , ϕ ' = 28 ° , and γ = 123 lb/ft 3 . Using an effective stress analysis, compute the factor of safety against a bearing capacity failure.

The storm sewer system shown below receives storm water from five subareas (A, B, C, D, E,F and G). For each subarea; the drainage area, the longest flow path length, the slope of ground surface and runoff coefficient are as given in Table I. Estimate storm water flowrate received by each of the four inlets. Assume the area is dense residential area.
