Bearing Capacity Factor Dependent on Cohesion Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Bearing Capacity Factor Dependent on Cohesion?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

N c = \frac{q f - ((σ' \cdot N q) + (0.5 \cdot γ \cdot B \cdot N γ \cdot s γ))}{s c \cdot C}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

N c = \frac{60kPa - ((10Pa \cdot 2.01) + (0.5 \cdot 18kN/m³ \cdot 2m \cdot 1.6 \cdot 1.6))}{1.7 \cdot 4.23kPa}

Next Step Convert Units

∴

N c = \frac{60000Pa - ((10Pa \cdot 2.01) + (0.5 \cdot 18000N/m³ \cdot 2m \cdot 1.6 \cdot 1.6))}{1.7 \cdot 4230Pa}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

N c = \frac{60000 - ((10 \cdot 2.01) + (0.5 \cdot 18000 \cdot 2 \cdot 1.6 \cdot 1.6))}{1.7 \cdot 4230}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

N c = 1.93295786399666

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

N c = 1.933
