6. SELECTION OF TYPE OF FOUNDATION AND BEARING CAPACITY

Eco Protection Engineers Pvt. Ltd. Plot No. 943, 54 th Street, TVS
Colony, Annanagar West Extn., Chennai, Proposed Construction of Lifting Station 1 at
Sanjeeva Nagar, Tadepalligudem Municipality, Tadepalligudem, W.G.District, A.P.
The soil from 0.0m to 9.0m is yellowish clay and from 9.0m to 12.0m is gravel. Open
foundation in the fonn of spread/raft foundation is suitable. It should rests on sound
strata of adequate bearing capacity and safe from settlement considerations.
• It should have adequate embedded length so as resist the overturning moments
due to horizontal forces.
The allowable bearing capacity of shallow foundation can be calculated
using the equation as given in IS : 6403-1981.
The net ultimate bearing capacity for strip footing shall be modified to take into
account, the shape of the footing, inclination of loading, depth of embedment and effect
of water table. The modified bearing capacity formulae are given as under:
a) for general shear failure q 0 u = cNcscdcic + q(Nq -1) Sqdqiq + ½ ByNySydyiy W'
b) for local shear failure q 0 u=2/3 cN' c scdcic+q(N' q-1) Sqdqiq + ½ ByN'ySydyiy W'
c) Computation of safe load carrying capacity of bored cast in situe pile foundation :
Using static formula: Qu = Qsu + Qbu
