6.8 Refer to Figure P6.8. Using the procedure outlined in Section 6.8, determine the average stress increase in the clay layer below the center of the foundation due to the net foundation load of 50 ton. [Use Eq. (6.28).] 4:5 ft 3 ft 50 ton (net load) 10 ft 5 ft x 5 ft Sand y=100 lb/ft!

A rigid foundation is subjected to a vertical column load, P = 355 kN, as shown in Figure 11.43. Estimate the elastic settlement due to the net applied pressure, Ao, on the foundation. Given: B = 2 m; L = 3 m; D, = 1.5 m; H = 4 m; E, = 13,500 kN/m²; and µ, = 0.4. Foundation Δσ Dr Soil Hg = Poisson's ratio E, modulus of elasticity H %3D Rock O Cengage Leaming 2014
Problem 1. A column foundation (Figure below) is 3 m × 2 m in plan. The load on the column, including the weight of the foundation is 4500 kN. Determin the average vertical stress increase 4 m beneath the corner of the foundation in the soil layer due to the foundation loading by: a) Boussinesq equations b) 2:1 method Given: Df = 1.5 m, Ø'= 25°, c'= 70 kN/m². 1.5 m 1 m 3m x 2m y = 17 kN/m³ Water level Ysat 19.5 kN/m³
