How to Calculate Effective Surcharge given Strip Footing and Bearing Capacity?
Effective Surcharge given Strip Footing and Bearing Capacity calculator uses Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal = (Ultimate Bearing Capacity-((1*Cohesion in Soil as Kilopascal*Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Cohesion)+(0.5*Unit Weight of Soil*Width of Footing*Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Unit Weight*1)))/Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Surcharge to calculate the Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal, The Effective Surcharge given Strip Footing and Bearing Capacity is defined as the value of effective surcharge when we have prior information of other parameters used. Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal is denoted by σs symbol.
How to calculate Effective Surcharge given Strip Footing and Bearing Capacity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Effective Surcharge given Strip Footing and Bearing Capacity, enter Ultimate Bearing Capacity (qf), Cohesion in Soil as Kilopascal (C), Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Cohesion (Nc), Unit Weight of Soil (γ), Width of Footing (B), Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Unit Weight (Nγ) & Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Surcharge (Nq) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Effective Surcharge given Strip Footing and Bearing Capacity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.009885 = (60000-((1*1270*9)+(0.5*18000*2*1.6*1)))/2.01.
