SAMPLE BEARING CAPACITY CALCULATIONS

Allowable Settlement =125 mm


Foundation Depth = 2.0 M
Foundation Width =40.0 M

A. BEARING CAPACITY
Contributing layers for average C and Phi determination are-
Stratum- 1 to Stratum- 3 : From 2.00 M to 25.00 M
Sigma [Ci.Hi] = 1.575 Te.M
Sigma [Hi.Tan(Oi)] = 0.000 M
Effective Thickness = 4.50 M
Effective Cohesion = 1.575/ 4.50 = 3.50 Te/sqm
Effective Friction = ArcTan [0.000/ 4.50]= 0.0 Degree

Bearing Capacity Factors are:-


Nc = 5.150 Nq = 1.000 N = 0.000
Depth Factors Are :-
Dc = 1.020 Dq = 1.000 D = 1.000
Selected L/B Ratio = 1.0, Therefore Length = 40.0 M
Shape Factors are:-
Sc = 1.194 Sq = 1.000 S = 0.600
Correction Factors for the Position of Water Table are :-
R1 = 0.500 R2 = 0.500

Qu = C.Nc.Sc.Dc + q.Nq.Sq.Dq.R2 + 0.5.R1.Y.B.N.S.D - q


= 20.06 Te/sqm
Therefore Qs = Qu/F.O.S. = 20.06/2.5 = 8.024 Te/sqm

B. SETTLEMENT CALCULATIONS
Contributing Layers for Settlement Calculations are :-
Stratum- 1 to Stratum- 3 : From 2.00 M to 25.00 M

STRATUM- 1 , No of Divn= 4 , Thickness= 4.5 M


So thickness of each division = (4.5/4) = 1.125 M
Vertical stress at z depth at corner of a uniformly loaded rectangular
area,  z is calculated using Boussinesq’s equation presented by
Newmark(1955) as given below:
Where, m = (b/z) and n = (l/z).

Here, b = Foundation Width / 2 = 20 M, l = Foundation Length / 2 = 20 M


And q = Qs = 8.024 Te/sqm.
Hence, Using the above equation, Vertical Stress at 2.25m below
foundation = 8.014Te/sqm.

Similarly vertical stress at each division is calculated and presented


in the table below:
-------------------------------------------
Sl.No Dist from Ftg Vertical Stress
Bottom, z below centre
M Te/sqm
-------------------------------------------
1 0.00 8.024
2 1.125 8.021
3 2.25 8.014
4 3.375 7.995
5 4.50 7.958
-------------------------------------------

From the above vertical stress values at different depths, P, has been
calculated using Simpson’s 1/3rd rule:
P = [(1.125/3)x{(8.02+7.96)+4x(8.02+7.99)+2x(8.01)}]/4.5 = 8.01 Te/sqm

Hence, Immediate Settlement = P(1-µ2)H/E = 30.12mm

Applying a Rigidity Factor of 0.75, Average Immediate Settlement = Si


= 0.75 x 30.12 mm = 22.59 mm
Consolidation Settlement is calculated as P.H.mvc.G = 103.485mm.

Applying a Rigidity Factor of 0.75, Average Consolidation Settlement =


Sc = 0.75 x 103.485 mm = 77.61 mm
So average Total Settlement = St = Si + Sc = (22.59+77.61) = 100.2 mm.

For Stratum- 1 by Integration P =0.801 kg/sqcm


Average Immediate Settlement = Si = 22.6 mm
Average Consolidation Settlement = Sc = 77.6 mm
Average Total Settlement = St = Si + Sc =100.2 mm
Cummulative Settlements are:-

Immediate component= Si = 22.6 mm


Consolidation component = Sc = 77.6 mm
Total upto this = St =100.1 mm

STRATUM- 2 , No of Divn= 4 , Thickness= 4.7 M

2 5.68 7.90
3 6.85 7.81
4 8.02 7.70
5 9.20 7.57
-------------------------------------------

For Stratum- 2 by Integration Delta P =0.779 kg/sqcm


Average Immediate Settlement = Si = 23.4 mm
Average Consolidation Settlement = Sc = 0.0 mm
Average Total Settlement = St = Si + Sc = 23.4 mm

Cummulative Settlements are:-


Immediate component= Si = 46.0 mm
Consolidation component = Sc = 77.6 mm
Total upto this = St =123.6 mm

STRATUM- 3 , No of Divn= 4 , Thickness= 13.8 M

5 23.00 5.05
-------------------------------------------
For Stratum- 3 by Integration Delta P =0.636 kg/sqcm
Average Immediate Settlement = Si = 38.6 mm
Average Consolidation Settlement = Sc = 0.0 mm
Average Total Settlement = St = Si + Sc = 38.6 mm

Cummulative Settlements are:-


Immediate component= Si = 84.6 mm
Consolidation component = Sc = 77.6 mm
Total upto this = St =162.2 mm

Fox's Depth Correction Factor as per I.S.8009(Part-I)= 1.00


Cummulative Settlement =162.2x 1.00 = 162.2 mm
Allowable Settlement = 125 mm
Settlement is more than allowable limit

Allowable bearing capacity = Qs.Sl/St = 8.0x125/162.2


= 6.2 Te/sqm, say 6t/sqm
