Footings for a structure are to be built beneath a basement slab on a clay at a depth of 20 ft. below present ground level. Representative consolidation tests on the soil produce a 0.043 slope of recompression curve. The groundwater table is 15 ft. below the ground surface. The soil has a unt weight of 120 pcf. The soil-void ratio is about 0.87. If the average bearing pressure on the footings is 2,600 psf., estimate the settlement of 10 ft. and 5 ft. square footings. Also , what is the factor of safety for the footings against bearing failure if the clay soil has an unconfined compressive strength of 3,600 psf? The back of the book says that for a 5 ft. footing, the estimated settlement= 1.72 in. And for a 10ft. footing, the estimated settlement= 2.42 in. Also it says the Factor of Safety at least for the 5 t. footing is FS=5.554. I need to be able to show step by step solution.
A pipe 1ft in diameter bends through an angle of 135 degrees. The velocity of flow of gasoline ( S = 0.8) is 20ft/s and the pressure is 10psig in the bend. What external force is required to hold the bend against the action of the gasoline
Estimate the convective heat transfer coefficent for natural convenction from a horizontal steam pipe. The outside surface temperature of the insulated pipe is 80 degree C. The surrounding air temperature is 25 degress C.
An excavation is proposed for a site consisting of a homogenous, isotropic later of silt clay, 14.24 m thick, above a deep deposit of sand. The groundwater is 2m below ground level outside the excavation. The groundwater level inside the excavatio..
A very long rectangular channel connects two reservoirs and has a longitudinal slope of 0.005. The channel has a width of 10 m and a Manning's n of 0.030.
at the bottom of a loop in the vertical plane an airplane has a horizontal velocity of 315 mi/h and is speeding up at a rate of of 10ft/s^2. The radius of curvature of the loop is 1mi. The plane is being tracked by radar at O.
At the instant when angle theta= 50 degree, the horizontal guide is given a constant upward velocity v0 = 1.3 m/s. For this instant calculate the force N exerted by the fixed circular slot and the force P exerted by the horizontal slot on the 0.60..
A glass is cleaned in 45 0C hot water and placed onthe table bottom up. The room air at 20 0C thatwas trapped in the glass gets heated up to 40 0C andsome of it leaks out so the net resulting pressure inside is 2 kPaabove ambient pressure of 101 kPa...
A dam project specifies 97% compaction. Lab tests on the soil being used indicate that it has a maximum dry density of 1900 kg/m3 at an optimum water content of 13.2%. Field tests give the following results: Field dry density is 1790 kg/m3 and 16...
The crane hoists a uniformly distributed load C. the two identical motors at A an power through gearboxes operating at maximum output speed of 100 rpm.the load is lifted by winding cable onto spindles attached to the output shaft of each gear box.
An old wooden telephone pole with a single cross member was blown off center during a recent storm. To temporarily stabilize the telephone pole, a repair crew has attached a cable from the end of the cross member to an eye-ring stake anchored in t..
On a very hot day, I saw a 1.6 meter long steel bar held between two rigid supports that had buckled due to the heat. The bar had a cross section of 10 mm by 40 mm, and I assume was A36 steel.
