I need help starting the calculation for a Pipe Mast that is welded to a 8"x8"x1/4" plate with 2 U-Bolts holding the pipe and plate to a CMU wall. I added a sketch...
Not sure where to start....
The Structural Engineer on the project wants to have the allowable bearing pressure of the sub grade before doing the point load calculation on the concrete. I also have a concrete core sample result for the 4" concrete slab.
I have an existing condition of 4" of unreienforced concrete on top of a sandy soil that has been in place for 10-15 years. I am looking to have the 4" of concrete support a point load and need to find the allowable Soil bearing pressure in order to give the structural engineer the starting...
What is happening is that the project site is an agriculture farm field and the "hot spot" is the low spot in the field, so all of the stormwater collects in the low spot and thus that is the area with the largest concentration of As. It is only above the 20mg/kg in the first 6" as I have...
The current DEP regulations in my area allow for soil blending. I need to make a recommendation as to how deep to do the blending. Of course the $$ are bigger the deeper you have to go, so I am trying to justify the blending depth. The machine to be used has the ability to blend down to 40", of...
I have a project on which I want to do soil blending.
The soil currently has 38.9mg/kg of arsenic in about 1,250cf of soil (for the first 6")....the underlying soil (12"-18" depth) has an arsenic reading of 16.3 and 9.18 respectively.
How do I calculate the depth to which I need to blend to...
