(help asappppp!!!plsss)
A shallow foundation 6m8m will be placed on a soil stratus at a depth of 3.00m below the ground surface. The loads transmitted to the footing include 115kPa of dead load, 25kPa of live load and 15kPa of incidental loads.
The ground surface is horizontal and the subsoil is medium firm clay to a depth of 25m to bedrock. The bulk unit weight of the soil is 17kNm3 and the water table is near the ground surface.
The undrained elastic modulus was measured in the field using a pressuremeter. The results are included in the table below as a function of the depth at which the test was performed.
