Design Calculation of Foundation Requirement under Retaining Wall Along
Diversion Road at BR #276 (CH. 0+000 TO 0+040)
From the design report, the required bearing capacity = 75.8 kN/sqm
The load bearing soil strata consists of silt with an SPT value of = 16
From the above emperical correlation between SPT N - value and angle of internal
friction it can be found that the angle of internal friction of the soil under consideration
is = 31.8 degrees
The cohesion value, C is typically assumed 25 kN/sqm for silt.
Page 1 of 2
From the above emperical correlation between SPT N - value and angle of internal
friction, relative density and unit weight of cohesionless soil it can be found that
the unit weight of the soil under consideration is = 17 kN/cum
Hence, the ultimate bearing capacity of the soil under consideration as per Meyerhof's
equation = 1247.698 kN/sqm
