Question 1 ° Cahn Municah Mohd BK16110004) —_—a“a There are mainly three (3) main modes of shear failure Marly general shear failure, local shear failure and punching shear failure. From the igure, it con be identified that general shear failure has occurred 40 the fOokng foundation, Thit can be further Proved with the clearly defined slip surface that forms Under the footing and develops Outward toward one side and eventually to the ground surface. Usually, this kind of failwe occurs in dense and stigg Soil. This is probably caused by the low Compressibility, ability of dense and etige soil: Also, this failure may Ocair cue to low Value of ultimate bearing, capacity oF 4he whole soil and foundation structure, Lastly, it may be caused by the Soil condition itself or its capobility to resist from dividing into zones whch may move pully or partially and tangentially with respect tv each other, Jong itt slip curgace Scanned with CamScanner Question 2 Faain Munirah Mohd.

Foundation must be located properly Cboth verticat and horizontal orientation) $0 as not to be adversely affected by outside ingluences. Q. Foundation must be Safe from bearing capocity failure Ccolapse). 3. Foundation must be Sage from excessive settlement. In order +o fulgill these considerctions, alternatives thal may be done include encuring adequate depth of foundation of at least 2m tu prevent frost action ana at least Sm gor preventing volume change. Also, setlement should be limited with accordance to it guidelines with cand of maximum settlement of 4omm and clay with Maximum settlement of 60mm. Also, factor of sagety to be use in dewign against shear failure is to be more than 3.0. Scanned with CamScanner Guestion 3 Cfada Munirah Mohd.
