For the following, compute and tabulate R or D, T, L, LC, E, M, PC, PT, deflection angles, and incremental chords to lay out he circular curves at full stations (100’). Develop and tabulate the curve data, deflection angles, and incremental chords needed to lay out the circular curves at full- station increments using a total station instrument set up at the PC. (Essentially, develop a table similar to Table 24.2.)
1. Highway curve with R = 1200’, I = 30o00’, and PI station = 45 + 50.00’ 2. Highway curve with T = 131.65’, R = 1200’, and PI station = 67 + 50.00’ 3. Highway curve with R = 900 m, I = 12o30’, and PI station = 4+200.600 m 4. Highway curve with R = 550 m, I = 5o00’, and PI station = 3 + 290.600 m

Determine the saturation flow rate for a left-turn lane that operates in a protected/permitted mode, under the following conditions: Opposing demand flow rate = 1100 veh/h Lane width = 11 ft Heavy vehicles = 3% of the traffic stream Approach grade = –2% No on-street parking No bus stops Bicycle and pedestrian traffic conflicting with this lane group is negligible Intersection is not in a central business district.

Problem 2:
Initial mixture proportions for a concrete with the following
requirements and properties is needed:
28 Day Design Strength = 4000 psi
It is for a parking lot deck and columns, so it is not in contact
with sulfates from soil or saltwater
Slump should be 4”
Aggregate properties are:
Coarse Fine
SGSSD 2.60 2.55
Absorption (%) 0.8% 1.9%
Fineness Modulus N/A 2.90
Nominal Size ¾” x #8 N/A
Dry Rodded Unit Weight (lbs/ft3) 91.3 N/A
Description Rounded Gravel N/A
No reliable records for the relationship between w/c and
compressive strength are available for the
specific cement and aggregate combination being used, so use Table
12-3 or Figure 12-3 for the
relationship between compressive strength and w/c.
Not using any chemical admixtures other than air-entrainment,
determine the mixture proportions (per yd3
of concrete with aggregates in the SSD state if the freeze/thaw
exposure classification is
a) Class F0 (not exposed to freezing and thawing, but use a minimal
amount to improve workability
or just in case it is exposed to frost once in awhile…for example
San Luis Obispo)
b) Class F3 (exposed to freezing and thawing while wet and exposed
to de-icing chemicals…typical
of a parking structure in New York, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana,
Massachusetts, etc.)
c) Compare your proportions for the two, and what governed the
w/c?

A rectangular footing (0.75m∙0.75m), embedded 0.5 m, carries a downward column load of 200 kN. The footing is supported on an overconsolidated clay with the following properties:
Cr = 0.05 e = 0.7 OCR = 2.0
PI = 55 cu = 200 kPa ϒsat = 16.2 kN/m3
The ground water table is at a depth of 1.0 m below the ground surface.
a) Calculate the primary consolidation settlement for this footing.
b) Is the calculated Sc within tolerable limits?
Hint: This clay deposit is very deep. Assume that the portion (or thickness) of the clay layer that will consolidate is between z = Df and z = Df + 2B.

§Problem 1: Two meters of fill (=2.04 Mg/m3) are compacted over a large area (thus 100% of its influence is felt throughout the depth). Above the compacted fill, a 3*4m spread footing loaded with 5000 kN is placed. Assume that the average density of the soil is 1.68 Mg/m3, and the water table is very deep. Then it is required to (a) compute and plot the profile of effective vertical stresses at the middles of five 2m intervals or layers of depth, prior to fill placement. (b) compute and plot the stresses at the same intervals due to adding the fill. (c) compute and plot the stresses with depth due to the addition of 3*4 m footing, using the equations below, for the increase in stresses below the corner of a rectangular area of width B and Length L. (assume that, the weight of footing plus backfill equals weight of soil removed).
§Problem 2 For the previous problem. It was assumed that the settlement of the footing would occur from settlement in the 2m fill below the footing and the 10m layers of medium sand. Consider that, the values of E and ν are 20 MPa and 0.3, respectively, (for both materials). Assuming a linear, isotropic, elastic material behaviour, calculate and plot The Total Elastic Settlement Profile.
