Solution:

The maximum pressure at the base of a foundation that can be applied without shear failure is known as:

Net ultimate bearing capacity

Ultimate bearing capacity

Net pressure

Gross pressure

Solution:

A vertical cut is to be made in a saturated clay with c = 18 kN/m², γ = 16 kN/m³, and φ = 0 degrees. What is the theoretical depth to which the clay can be excavated without side collapse?

4 m

4.5 m

6 m

8 m

Solution:

A Raft Foundation is located at a depth of 1 m in a soil having a bulk density of 20 kN/m³ and an ultimate bearing capacity of 300 kN/m³. The net safe bearing capacity of the soil is:

110 kN/m²

112 kN/m²

80 kN/m²

100.5 kN/m²

Solution:

On the surface of a thick layered clay soil deposit, a point load of 750 kN is applied at a depth of 3.5m and a radial distance of 1.2m from the point of application of load. What is the value of the vertical stress using the Boussinesq’s elastic analysis?

Solution:

In a soil investigation work at a site, Standard Penetration Test (SPT) was conducted every 1.5 m interval up to 30 m depth. At 3 m depth, the observed number hammer blows for 3 successive 150 mm penetrations were 8,6 and 9 respectively. The SPT N-value at 3m depth, is
