A bridge foundation has a nominal load capacity of 1700kN. If the resistance factor for this foundation is 0.65, what is the ultimate factored load this foundation can carry using the LRFD method

The appropriate answer will be "2353.8 K". A further solution is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Ultimate capacity,

= 1700kN

Resistance factor,

F.S = 0.65

According to the the LRFD, the allowable bearing pressure will be:

⇒

On substituting the values, we get

⇒            

⇒            

According to the the ASD, the allowable bearing pressure will be:

⇒

On substituting the values, we get

⇒            

⇒            

⇒            

x+2 because it just doubles hon so the pattern can actually tell you the expression.

so for example,

if x=2 then 2+2 is 4

if x=4 then 4+4 is 8

and so on and so forth.

i really hope that this makes sense and you out in a way hon: )
