Bearing Capacity Factor Dependent on cohesion for Purely Cohesive Soil Formula Elements

Variables
Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Cohesion
Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Cohesion is a constant whose value depends upon the cohesion of soil.
Symbol: Nc
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Ultimate Bearing Capacity in Soil
Ultimate Bearing Capacity in Soil is defined as the minimum gross pressure intensity at the base of the foundation at which the soil fails in shear.
Symbol: qfc
Measurement: PressureUnit: kPa
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal
Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal also called as surcharge load refers to the vertical pressure or any load that acts over the ground surface additional to basic earth pressure.
Symbol: σs
Measurement: PressureUnit: kN/m²
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Surcharge
Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Surcharge is a constant whose value depends upon surcharge.
Symbol: Nq
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
