Define the Normalized Tip Resistance of Drilled Shafts in Sand (Ghionna et al. 1994) ?
Refer to Figure 11.26b. For the drilled shaft with bell, given:Thickness of active zone, Z = 9 mDead load = 1500 kN Live load = 300 kNDiameter of the shaft, Ds = 1 mZero swell pressure for the clay in the active zone = 600 kN/m2Average angle of plinth-soil friction, Φ'ps = 20°Average undrained cohesion of the clay around the bell = 150 kN/m2. Determine the diameter of the bell, Db. A factor of safety of 3 against uplift is required with the assumption that dead load plus live load is equal to zero.
An embankment consists of clay fill for which c=25 kPa and angle of internal friction is 260 (from consolidated undrained test with pore pressure measurement) The weight of fill per unit volume is 18.64 kN/m3. Compute the effective stress in kPa at a depth of 20 m. If the pore pressure at this point is shown by a piezometer to be 180 kPa. a. 62.5 b. 372.8 c. 192.8 d. 21.6
