Design calculation 1) Combination: 1.0 DL + 1.

0 OL

Load factor
Length of Skid L = 4 m DL 1
Width of skid B = 3 m OL 1
Height of Skid h = 2.5 m
Length of the foundation L1 = 4.6 m
Width of the foundation B1 = 3.6 m
Thickness of the raft T = 0.875 m
thickness of grout t1 = 0.025 m
Operating Load (OL) W = 50 kN

Self weight of the raft = 4.6*3.6*0.875*25 DL = 362.3 kN

Total vertical load = 362.3*1+50*1 = 412 kN
Angle of Internal Friction = 30 °

Friction coeff. bet. soil & conc. = 0.36

Allowable Bearing Capacity of Soil = 220 kN/m

Shear due to OL (30 % of OL) = 15.00 kN =0.875+0.025+1.25

Moment at mid of height =15*2.15 = 32.25 kNm 2.15

Area of the SKID foundation (A) =4.6*3.6 = 16.56 m
Section Moudulus (Z) =4.6*3.6^2/6 = 10 m³

Max Base Pressure = (P/A + M/Z) = 28.12 kN/m
2
Min Base Pressure = (P/A - M/Z) = 21.67 kN/m

< 220 kN/m
Base Pressure Okay
Stablity Check
Sliding Check
Design service load = P = 412 kN
Horizontal force (OL) = FB = 15.00 kN
Total vertical force = Ptotal = 412 kN
Restoring force = mPtotal = 0.36*412.25
= 148.41 kN
Factor of safety against sliding = 148.41/15.00
= 9.89
> 1.5
Sliding Okay

Overturning Check
Total moment about the periphery = MB = 32.25 kN.m
Total vertical force = Ptotal = 412 kN
Max. Moment at base = M = 32.25 kN.m
Total restoring moment at base = MR=P.B/2 = 412*1.8
= 742.05 kN.m
Factor of safety against overturning due to Max. Moment = 742/32.25
= 23.01
> 1.75
Overturning Okay

Reinforcement Design

Concrete slab thickness considered for minimum shrinkage reinforcement (T) = 0.25 m
Minimum reinforcement As = 0.18 %
Area of reinforcement required = 450 mm²
Reinforcement Diameter f = 12 mm
Spacing of reinforcement per layer s = (3.14*12²/4)*1000/450
= 251 mm
So, T12 @ 200 mm c/c top & bottom mesh is provided
Ap = 565 mm²
