HOW TO CALCULATE SAFE BEARING CAPACITY OF SOIL ON SITE?

How to calculate safe bearing capacity of soil on site

This simple and quick field test will give you a rough idea of bearing capacity of soil.

程序

  1. 挖掘所需深度的坑。(最好等于基础深度)
  2. 取一个已知重量和尺寸的实心球或平方立方体。
  3. Drop the ball or square cube several times, from a known height on to the bottom surface of excavated pit.
  4. Calculate the average depth of impression made several times on the bottom surface of the excavated pit. Let “d” is the average depth of impression.

Calculation

Calculate the ultimate resistance of soil ( R ) using the formula given below.

R = (w * h) / d

在哪里,

R = Ultimate resistance of soil (in kg)

d = Average depth of impression (in cm)

w = Weight of the solid ball or square cube (in kg)

h = Height of fall of solid ball or cube (in cm)

If “A” is the cross-sectional area of the solid steel ball or cube, then resistance of soil per unit area is calculated using following formula.

Resistance of soil per unit area (in kg/cm2)= r / a

Safe bearing capacity (in kg/cm2)= r /(a * f.o.s)

在哪里,

F.O.S = Factor of safety

记住笔记

  1. F.O.S根据结构和现场条件的类型从2到3不等。
  2. 为了获得可靠的测试结果,请对不同类型的土壤进行此测试,然后使用您的判断来达成任何结论。
  3. Instead of using solid steel ball or square cube, we can also useCBR test柱塞或锥(用于锥体渗透测试)

推定轴承能力

The table given below shows the presumptive bearing capacity values for different types of soils. This table will guide you to reach at any conclusion after conducting the test.

土壤 /岩石类型 Safe / Allowable Bearing Capacity (kg/cm2
Rock 32.40
软岩 4.40
粗砂 4.40
Medium sand 2。45
细沙 4.40
Soft shell / Stiff clay 1.00
软粘土 1.00
Very soft clay 0。50

记住笔记

  1. For non-cohesive soils the values should be reduced by 50% if the water table is above or near base of footing.
  2. These values should be used only for preliminary design. The actual bearing capacity of soil should be calculated as per the standard codes.
