Width of Full Size Bearing Plate in Load Bearing Test Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Width of Full Size Bearing Plate = (1/(2*sqrt(Settlement of Plate/Settlement Foundation)-1))
B = (1/(2*sqrt(ρ¹/Δ)-1))
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Width of Full Size Bearing Plate - (Measured in Meter) - Width of Full Size Bearing Plate is the diameter or width of a large, rigid plate that is placed on the surface of the ground or at a specified depth below the ground surface.
Settlement of Plate - (Measured in Meter) - Settlement of plate is the vertical displacement of the plate.
Settlement Foundation - (Measured in Meter) - Settlement Foundation is the process and principles involved in ensuring the stable and predictable settlement of structures built on soil or other earth materials.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Settlement of Plate: 0.0027 Meter --> 0.0027 Meter No Conversion Required
Settlement Foundation: 4.8 Millimeter --> 0.0048 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

B = (1/(2*sqrt(ρ¹/Δ)-1)) --> (1/(2*sqrt(0.0027/0.0048)-1))

Evaluating ... ...

B = 2

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2 Meter -->2000 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

2000 Millimeter <-- Width of Full Size Bearing Plate

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

Percent Moisture in Sand Cone Method

Go Percent Moisture from Sand Cone Test = (100*(Weight of Moist Soil-Weight of Dry Soil))/Weight of Dry Soil

Density of Sand given Volume of Soil for Sand Filling in Sand Cone Method

Go Density of Sand = (Weight of Total Soil/Volume of Soil)

Volume of Soil for Sand Filling in Sand Cone Method

Go Volume of Soil = (Weight of Total Soil/Density of Sand)

Weight of Sand Filling Hole in Sand Cone Method

Go Weight of Total Soil = (Volume of Soil*Density of Sand)

Width of Full Size Bearing Plate in Load Bearing Test Formula

Width of Full Size Bearing Plate = (1/(2*sqrt(Settlement of Plate/Settlement Foundation)-1))
B = (1/(2*sqrt(ρ¹/Δ)-1))

What is Settlement in Foundation?

Inevitably, soils deform under the load of foundation structures. The total vertical displacement that occur at foundation level is termed as settlement. The cause of foundation settlement is the reduction of volume air void ratio in the soil.
