Bearing Pressure given Modulus of Subgrade Reaction Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Bearing Pressure = Modulus of Subgrade Reaction*0.125
P = K_sr*0.125
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Bearing Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - The Bearing Pressure refers to the applied load divided by the area of the plate placed on the ground surface.
Modulus of Subgrade Reaction - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - The modulus of subgrade reaction is a parameter used in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Modulus of Subgrade Reaction: 400 Newton per Cubic Meter --> 400 Newton per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P = K_sr*0.125 --> 400*0.125

Evaluating ... ...
