The allowable settlement for the shown square footing is 2.5 cm. the footing is placed on clay soil with the following properties. Use 4 layers to calculate the consolidation settlement and see if it satisfies the criterion. (footing weight is negligible) Hint: use the following eqation for Aoz (Boussinesq equations) For square foundations: 0.5 Δσ. = P1=1000 KN 2.0 - 1 + 1.5 1 B (2) 1.76 (q - o:) YSat = 20 KN/m³ Y = 18 KN/m³ Cc = 0.1 eo = 0.6

Example (1): A strip footing of width 3 m is founded at a depth of 2 m below the ground surface in a (c - 0) soil having a cohesion c = 30 kN/m? and angle of shearing resistance o = 35°. The water table is at a depth of 5 m below ground level. The moist weight of soil above the water table is 17.25 kN/m. Determine (a) the ultimate bearing capacity of the soil, (b) the net bearing capacity, and (c) the net allowable bearing pressure and the load/m for a factor of safety of 3. Use the general shear failure theory of Terzaghi. Example (2): If the soil in Ex. (1) fails by local shear failure, determine the net safe bearing pressure. All the other data given in Ex.
