6.2. Preloading:
A Preloading Pressure of 0.01MN/m2 was applied prior to actual loading stage.
Where,
Ev = Strain Modulus in MN/m2.
r = radius of loading plate in mm.
The constants a1 and a2 was calculated as below.
Vadodara/Dahod/Godhra
Where,
σ0 = average normal stress below plate in MN/m 2
a0 = constants of second-degree polynomial in mm
a1 = constants of second-degree polynomial in mm/(MN/m 2)
a2 = constants of second-degree polynomial in mm/(MN2/m4)
σ0max = maximum average normal stress below plate in both loading cycle in MN/m 2
Where,
Ks = Modulus of Subgrade Reaction in MN/m 3
σ0 = Average Normal Stress for 1.25mm settlement.
