Book 1

1. The document contains tables showing calculations of ultimate bearing capacity (qult) for circular foundations with varying diameters and embedment depths, for different soil conditions. 2. The tables show that as the foundation diameter and embedment depth increase, the ultimate bearing capacity increases. 3. Safety factors are calculated by dividing the allowable bearing capacity (qall = 250 kPa) by the working bearing capacity (qall), showing safety factors ranging from 2.88 to 8.84 for different foundation sizes.
