SBC Calculation for Isolated Footing

The document summarizes calculations to determine the allowable bearing capacity of a square isolated footing that is 2 meters by 2 meters and 1.5 meters deep, with the water table located 6 meters below the footing base. The ultimate bearing capacity is calculated to be 47.12 tonnes/square meter, and the allowable bearing capacity is 18.85 tonnes/square meter.

Fa General Shear hrhrthr

Footing Type - ISOLATED SQUARE = 2.00M x 2.00M

Depth of Foundation : 1.50M


rthrt00M

Ground Water Table level: -6.00M

Bulk Density (W)of Soil Above Footing Base : 1.66 T/Cu.M.


Rth

Inclination Factor
Sc = 1.300 Dc = 1.235 Ic = 0.790
Sq = 1.200 Dq = 1.118 Iq = 0.790
Sg = 0.80tr0 Dg = [Link]

Water Table Correction Factor w' = 1.00

Effective surcharge at base level q = 2.49 T/Sq.M.

****For General Shear Failure****

Ultimate Net B.C. = Qult_n = C*Nc*Sc*Dc*Ic + q*(Nq-1)*Sq*Dq*Iq + 0.5*B*W*Ng*Sg*Dg*Ig*W'


Angle of Internal Friction(phai) : 25.00

Bearing Capacity Factors


Nc = 20.73
Nq = 10.67
Ng = 10.88

Thus Qult_n = 47.12 T/Sq.M.


Allowable Bearing Capacity (Qall) = 18.85 T/Sq.M
