Define Load-Settlement Response of Footing on Sand ?
A spread footing supported on a sandy soil has been designed using ASD to support a certaincolumn load with a factor of safety of 2.5 against a bearing capacity failure. However, there issome uncertainty in both the column load, P, and the friction angle, f. Which would have thegreatest impact on the actual factor of safety: an actual P that is twice the design value, or actualf that is half the design value? Use bearing capacity computations with reasonable assumedvalues to demonstrate the reason for your response.
Explain the method developed by Taylor(1948) fordetennining allowable bearing capacity of footings on sands ?
A square footing 5 ft by 5 ft supported on asandy stratum is designed to carry a columnloading of 250,000 Ib. The unit weight of thesands underlying the footing location varybetween 120 and 125 pcf. Estimate the founda-tion settlement to be expected using the sub-grade reaction method. (Neglect the weight ofthe footing.)
Explain the procedure developed by Hunt (1986) for determining allowable bearing pressure of footings on sand from CPT ?
Redo Problem 16.13 with the following data: gross allowable load = 184,000 lb, = 121 lb/ft3, c = 0, =26, Df = 6.5 ft., and required factor of safety = 2.5. 16.13 A square footing (B B) must carry a gross allowable load of 1160 kN. The base of the footing is to be located at a depth of 2 m below the ground surface. If the required factor of safety is 4.5, determine the size of the footing. Use Terzaghis bearing capacity factors and assume general shear failure of soil. Given: = 17 kN/m3, c = 48 kN/m2, =31.
3. Assuming general shear failure and using the Terzaghi equation with a FOS of 4 find the allowable gross bearing load the following footing can sustain: 1.5m continuous footing set 1.2mbelow grade in a 35deg phi soil with a c’ of 0 and a unit wt of 17.8kN/m^2
A 250-k column load is to be supported on a 9 ft square footing embedded 2 ft below theground surface. The underlying soil is a silty sand with an average N60 of 32 and a unit weightof 129 lb/ft3. The groundwater table is at a depth of 35 ft. Estimate the undrained settlement ofthe footing using the generalized elastic method with Christian and Carrier’s (1978) influencefactors.
A column carrying a vertical downward unfactored load of 270 k is to be supported on a 3 ft deepsquare spread footing. The soil beneath this footing is an undrained clay with su = 3,000 lb/ft2and g = 117 lb/ft3 . The groundwater table is below the bottom of the footing. Using the ASD method, compute the width B required to obtain a factor of safety of 3 against a bearing cap-acity failure.
Define the Normalized Load-Settlement Data for Medium Footing Load Tests ?
1. A 4ft by 4ft spread footing is proposed where the bottom of footing is set 2ft below grade. The column bearing on this footing will impose a load of 180kips. Assuming the subsurface conditions shown below with groundwater 5ft below grade, Use Schmertman's method to calculate the elastic settlement of the system 6 years after construction is completed, provide a clear sketch and show units and state assumptions. Oft Sand Ymoist = 120 pcf Phi = 30deg Es = 52 ksf 4ft Loose Sand 5ft Ymoist = 125 pcf Yat = 145 pcf Phi = 22deg Es (above GW) = 30 ksf Es (below GW) = 20 ksf 8ft Dense Sand Ysat = 155 pcf Phi = 35deg Es = 60 ksf 20ft 2. The foundation above is limited to a 1.5" settlement after 10 years, speak to whether the design is adequate and if not how can you adjust the project to meet this criteria.
Compute the elastic settlement for a rigid 10 ft by 15 ft footing loaded with 4000 psf uniformly distributed bearing pressure on silty sand with Es = 1250 psi and ms = 0.3. The footing is located 6 ft below existing grade. Please note any assumptions.
