How to Calculate Cohesion of Soil depending on Shape Factors?
Cohesion of Soil depending on Shape Factors calculator uses Cohesion in Soil as Kilopascal = (Ultimate Bearing Capacity-((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)))/(Shape Factor dependent on Cohesion*Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Cohesion) to calculate the Cohesion in Soil as Kilopascal, The Cohesion of Soil depending on Shape Factors is defined as the ability of the underlying soil to support the foundation loads without shear failure. Cohesion in Soil as Kilopascal is denoted by C symbol.
How to calculate Cohesion of Soil depending on Shape Factors using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Cohesion of Soil depending on Shape Factors, enter Ultimate Bearing Capacity (qf), 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), Shape Factor dependent on Cohesion (sc) & Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Cohesion (Nc) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Cohesion of Soil depending on Shape Factors calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.000908 = (60000-((10*2.01)+(0.5*18000*2*1.6*1.6)))/(1.7*9).
