Chapter 7, Problem 7.9P
Solve Problem 7.8 using Eq. (7.29). Ignore the post-construction settlement.
7.8 Solve Problem 7.4 with Eq. (7.20). Ignore the correction factor for creep. For the unit weight of soil, use γ = 115 lb/ft3.
7.4 Figure 7.3 shows a foundation of 10 ft × 6.25 ft resting on a sand deposit. The net load per unit area at the level of the foundation, qo, is 3000 lb/ft2. For the sand, μs = 0.3, Es = 3200 lb/in.2, Df = 2.5 ft, and H = 32 ft. Assume that the foundation is rigid and determine the elastic settlement the foundation would undergo. Use Eqs. (7.4) and (7.12).
