A capped pile group consisting a rectangular grid of 7 by 3 spanning a total length of, 7.1 m in length. Piles are of size 400 mm diameter and spaced at 1.8 m interval. The soil profile at the site consists of 2.5 m of sand followed by clay soil below. Drive Method construction method would be used. Field and laboratory data on the soil profile indicates top layer shear strength of N = 25. Average and strength for bottom layer are Cu = 265 kPa and Cu = 290 kPa. Adhesion factor between soil and pile is 0.9. Would you recommend using the piles as a group or singles?

Part A: Show your working for the following

Pile Group Design

Tip of base Area A_b (m²)=
Base Perimeter P (m) =
Ultimate bearing capacity q_f =
Tipt resistance (kN) =
Layer 1 Shaft Resistance (kN) =
Layer 2 Shaft Resistance (kN) =
Ultimate Load Q_f (kN) =

Part B: Show your working for the following

Single Pile Design

Ultimate bearing capacity qf (kPa) =
Tipt resistance (kN) =
Layer 1 Shaft resistance (kN) =
Layer 2 Shaft resistance (kN) =
Ultimate Load Qf (kN) =
Pile group efficiency (%) =
Spacing criteria satisfied? (Yes/No)
Use Piles as (Single/Group) =

The figure below shows a rectangular coil of length 1 and width w consisting of N turns of conducting wire

The figure below shows a rectangular coil of length 1 and width w consisting of N turns of conducting wire, moving to the right with a constant velocity v. The coil moves into a region of uniform magnetic field B, pointing into the page and perpendicular to the plane of the coil. The total resistance of the coil is R. Find the magnitude and direction of the total magnetic force on the coil for the following situations. (Use the following as...

A stick is resting on a concrete step with 2/7 of its total length ? hanging over the edge. A single ladybug lands on the end of the stick hanging over the edge, and the stick begins to tip. A moment later, a second, identical ladybug lands on the other end of the stick, which results in the stick coming momentarily to rest at ?=36.1∘ with respect to the horizontal If the mass of each bug is 2.92 times the...

An extruded, rectangular polypropylene strut of width 9 mm, depth 3 mm and length 80 mm is to be loaded from the ends in compression along its length with a creep load of 40 N for one year. [Creep curves for polypropylene are shown below. The buckling load is given by F = (2 p/ L)2 E I. For a rectangular beam the second moment of area is given by I = (w d3) /12.]. In order to improve buckling...

7-3) A criminologist wanted to see if there is a significant difference in the sentence length [in months] between white and minority offenders convicted of drug-related crimes. She randomly selects a sample of 35 white offenders [mean sentence length = 49; std. dev. = 14] and a sample of 25 non-white offenders [mean sentence length = 60; std. dev. = 12]. Formulate the null hypothesis stating no racial difference in the sentence length Formulate the alternative hypothesis Using the independent-sample...
