Question

INDUCED LOADS ARE APPLIED ON THE GROUND SURFACE AS SHOWN.

POINT LOADS: PA= 250KN PB= 175KN PC= 300KN

LINE LOAD: Q1= 150KN/M Q2= 225KN/M

DETERMINE:

a.    THE TOTAL VERTICAL STRESS INCREASE AT POINT A AT A DEPTH OF 5M DIRECTLY UNDERNEATH LINE AB.
b.    THE TOTAL VERTICAL STRESS INCREASE AT POINT O, 8M FROM A TO THE POSITIVE Y AXIS, PERPENDICULAR TO LINE AB AT THE SAME DEPTH.
c.    THE TOTAL VERTICAL STRESS INCREASE DIRECTLY AT A POINT BELOW THE LINE LOAD 1, PERPENDICULAR TO POINT O AT THE SAME DEPTH.
