(b) Figure Q2 (b) shows the ring foundation to support a silo. Given Ri = 3 m while R2 = 6 m. The total vertical load is 7500 kN. (i) Calculate and plot the vertical stress increase with depth up to 7 m (use 1 m interval) under the centre of the ring (point O). (12 marks) (ii) Determine the maximum vertical stress increase and its location. (3 marks)
Q2 (a) Referring to Figure Q2 (a), the vertical stress increase at point A is 25 kN/m² due to application of line loads qı and q2. Determine the magnitude of q2. (10 marks)
