How to Calculate Bearing Capacity depending on Shape Factors?
Bearing Capacity depending on Shape Factors calculator uses Ultimate Bearing Capacity = (Shape Factor dependent on Cohesion*Cohesion in Soil as Kilopascal*Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Cohesion)+(Effective Surcharge*Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Surcharge)+(0.5*Unit Weight of Soil*Width of Footing*Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Unit Weight*Shape Factor Dependent on Unit Weight) to calculate the Ultimate Bearing Capacity, The Bearing Capacity depending on Shape Factors is defined as the ability of the underlying soil to support the foundation loads without shear failure. Ultimate Bearing Capacity is denoted by qf symbol.
How to calculate Bearing Capacity depending on Shape Factors using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Bearing Capacity depending on Shape Factors, enter Shape Factor dependent on Cohesion (sc), Cohesion in Soil as Kilopascal (C), Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Cohesion (Nc), Effective Surcharge (σ`), Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Surcharge (Nq), Unit Weight of Soil (γ), Width of Footing (B), Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Unit Weight (Nγ) & Shape Factor Dependent on Unit Weight (sγ) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Bearing Capacity depending on Shape Factors calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.065531 = (1.7*1270*9)+(10*2.01)+(0.5*18000*2*1.6*1.6).
