Ultimate Bearing Capacity of Soil under Long Footing at Surface of Soil
Go Ultimate Bearing Capacity = ((Prandtls Cohesion/tan(Angle of Internal Friction))+(0.5*Dry Unit Weight of Soil*Width of Footing*sqrt(Coefficient of Passive Pressure))*(Coefficient of Passive Pressure*exp(pi*tan(Angle of Internal Friction))-1))
Safe Bearing Capacity given Net Ultimate Bearing Capacity
Go Safe Bearing Capacity = (Net Ultimate Bearing Capacity in Soil/Factor of Safety in Bearing Capacity of Soil)+(Unit Weight of Soil*Depth of Footing in Soil)
Bearing Capacity Factor Dependent on Unit Weight by Vesic's Analysis
Go Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Unit Weight = 2*(Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Surcharge+1)*tan((Angle of Internal Friction of Soil*pi)/180)
Net Safe Bearing Capacity given Ultimate Bearing Capacity
Go Net Safe Bearing Capacity in Soil = (Ultimate Bearing Capacity in Soil-Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal)/Factor of Safety in Bearing Capacity of Soil
Ultimate Bearing Capacity given Factor of Safety
Go Ultimate Bearing Capacity = (Net Safe Bearing Capacity in Soil*Factor of Safety in Bearing Capacity of Soil)+Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal
Angle of Internal Friction given Bearing Capacity by by Vesic's Analysis
Go Angle of Internal Friction = atan(Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Unit Weight/(2*(Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Surcharge+1)))
Ultimate Bearing Capacity given Depth of Footing
Go Ultimate Bearing Capacity = Net Ultimate Bearing Capacity in Soil+(Unit Weight of Soil*Depth of Footing in Soil)
Safe Bearing Capacity
Go Safe Bearing Capacity = Net Safe Bearing Capacity in Soil+(Unit Weight of Soil*Depth of Footing in Soil)
Depth of Footing given Safe Bearing Capacity
Go Depth of Footing = (Safe Bearing Capacity-Net Safe Bearing Capacity in Soil)/Unit Weight of Soil
Net Ultimate Bearing Capacity given Net Safe Bearing Capacity
Go Net Ultimate Bearing Capacity in Soil = Net Safe Bearing Capacity in Soil*Factor of Safety in Bearing Capacity of Soil
Net Safe Bearing Capacity
Go Net Safe Bearing Capacity in Soil = Net Ultimate Bearing Capacity in Soil/Factor of Safety in Bearing Capacity of Soil
Net Ultimate Bearing Capacity given Ultimate Bearing Capacity
Go Net Ultimate Bearing Capacity in Soil = Ultimate Bearing Capacity in Soil-Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal
Ultimate Bearing Capacity
Go Ultimate Bearing Capacity = Net Ultimate Bearing Capacity in Soil+Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal
Effective Surcharge given Depth of Footing
Go Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal = Unit Weight of Soil*Depth of Footing
Effective Surcharge given Net Pressure Intensity
Go Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal = Gross Pressure-Net Pressure
Net Pressure Intensity
Go Net Pressure = Gross Pressure-Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal
