Q2/ A (2m x 4 m) rectangular flexible foundation is placed above the ground
surface (G.S) for two layers of clay, each layer 10 m thick. The modulus of
Elasticity (E.) of the upper layer is 13 MN/m² and that of the lower layer is
15 MN/m². The Poisson ratio is (u, = 0.6) for the two layers. The pressure (stress) of
100 kN/m²is distributed along the surface of foundation. Determine the rigid
immediate settlement at the corner of the foundation using Elastic theory method?
Q1/ Find the maximum allowable load for a square foundation (3 m x 3 m) placed
vertically in cohesive soil? (Use Terzaghi equation)
Note:
Yt=Yeat=18 kN/m³
Depth of foundation = 1.5 m
Depth of water table below the ground surface = 0.8 m
Factor of safety 3
C=20
Yw = 10 kN/m³

No vertical or inclined loads
P.3.3
Oil of sp.gr. 0.9 flows through a vertical pipe (upwards). Two points A and B one
above the other 40 cm apart in a pipe are connected by a U-tube carrying mercury. If
the difference of pressure between A and B is 0.2 kg/cm²,
1- Find the reading of the manometer.
2- If the oil flows through a horizontal pipe, find the reading in manometer for the
same difference in pressure between A and B.
Ans. 1- R= 0.12913 m, 2- R = 0.1575 m,
