9. Use IS. 456 – 2000. code.
1. Design a suitable combined footing for two columns of size 350 x 350 mm and 300 x 300 28
mm carrying axial loads of 800 KN and 600 KN respectively. The are spaced at 3.5 m centre
to centre. The safe bearing capacity of soil is 120 KN/m2. Use M-20 concrete and Fe 415
steel. Draw reinforcement details. The width of footing is restricted to 2.0m.
OR
2. Design a raft foundation for a column grid having 3 column in x direction and 3 columns in 28
y direction making total nine number of columns, in a grid. The column are spaced at 3.8m
centre to centre in each direction. All columns are axial load of 750 KN each. The exterior
middle columns carry axial load of 900 KN each. The interior column carries on axial load
of 1200KN. Assume safe bearing capacity of soil as 100 KN/m2. Use M -20 concrete and
Fe -415 steel. Sketch the reinforcement details.
3. Derive the expression for reaction, slope and deflection for an infinitely long beam resting 14
on elastic foundation subjected to concrete load 'P' on the beam.
OR
4. Derive expression for reaction slope and bending moment for an infinitely long beam 14
resting on elastic foundation subjected to Uniformly distributed load 'w' over the length 'l'.
5. Design a pile under a column carrying an axial load of 1400KN. The pile is to be driven to 14
hard strata available at 12m below G.L and is to be embadded in to it for a depth of 1.2m.
Use M-20 Concrete and Fe – 415 steel. Provide all checks for handling and exection stresses
sketch reinforcement detail.
OR
6. Design Pile cap for three piles of diameter 700mm each at c/c to distance 2.5m. The 14
column which is supported on this pile cap carries an axial load of 1700KN. Use M20
concrete and Fe 415. Draw reinforcement detail.
7. Explain in detail the design philosophy of simple machine foundation and it's parameters 14
as per IS code.
OR
8. Explain detail the factor which are required for the design procedure of simple machine 14
foundation.
