Where F.S
C
=volumetric compression safety factor for foun-
dation and each abutment; V

and V
sector
=sumof sector volumes in foundation or in each
abutment.
For determining allowable bearing capacity, rock mass
strength was computed using equation 5 [Hoek-Brown
(2002)]. Then, this value was divided by the compression
safety factor. The results are shown in Table 8.
7 SUMMARYAND CONCLUSIONS
1. According to the stresses obtained in the cases of jointed
rock mass and rock mass without joints, it is obvious that
modeling of the joints do not have significant effects on
induced stresses and consequently on safety factors. Also,
modeling of the joints causes an abundant time to run the
program, and decrease in the convergence rate of analysis.
So using the geotechnical parameters of rock mass and
eliminating the joint sets will reduce these difficulties.
2. Compression safety factor for right abutment is lower than
one in the depth of 50 meters, and also, tension safety factor
for left abutment is lower than one in the depth of 80 meters.
Therefore, these parts must be reinforced.
3. Among the analytical methods, bearing capacity values
obtained by Serrano and Olalla method had the best
coincidence with the values obtained using numerical
method.
