- Q- Sand lying below a masonry dam has a porosity of 40% and a specific gravity of 2.67, then the maximum permissible upward gradient, if a factor of safety of 4 is considered, isQuestion Foundation soil at the toe of dam has void ratio of 0.7. The specific gravity of soil grains is 2.6. To assure safety against piping, the upward gradient should not exceed 30% of gradient at which quick condition occurs. The maximum permissible upward gradient isQ- To provide safety against piping failure, with a factor of safety of 5, what should be the maximum permissible exist gradient for soil with specific gravity of 2.5 and porosity n=0.35?
- The embankment for a highway 5097 ft long, 104 ft wide and 6 ft in compacted thickness is to be constructed from a sandy soil trucked from a borrow pit. The water content of the sandy soil in the borrow pit is 6.748% and its porosity is 0.422. The specification requires the embankment be compacted to a dry unit weight of 122.874 lb/ft3.

- A 100-ft diameter cylindrical tank with an empty weight of 300,000 lb (including the weight of the cylindrical mat foundation) is to be built. The bottom of the mat will be at a depth of 3 ft below the ground surface. This tank is to be filled with water. The underlying soil is an undrained clay with su 1500 lb/ft2 and y- 130 lb/ft', and the ground water table is at a depth of 10 ft. The undrained shear strength su equals to cohesion, Friction angle is equal to zero. Assume that general shear failure occurs in soil. Use Terzaghi equation, compute the maximum allowable depth of the water in the tank that will maintain a factor of safety of 3.0 against a bearing capacity failure. Assume the weight of the water and tank is spread uniformly across the bottom of the tank.Os: Given e-0.5,0.8% 1:0 For a sand withh Gs-267.
