Would engineered fill improve the Safe bearing capacity of soil?

Yes, it can improve the bearing capacity but the extent has to be seen with other conditions like soil, mode of filling, treatment given. In fact this was done in delhi to counter site conditions.

∙ 11y agoThe safe bearing capacity of soil varies from soil to soil for example it is assumed 10 for ordinary soil, 15 for black cotton soil & much higher for rocky foundation, however it is advised to get tested the SBC before taking up any project for realistic value.

What does over capacity mean?
In a way it seems like a contradictory idea. How can a machine be producing 'over capacity' if capacity is the limit of its ability?When elevators are designed, engineered and built, all the technical data connected with the materials used, their ability to carry loads, and changes that occur to materials during use (related to heating up, for example) all go into a careful estimate of what the elevator can safely carry, and probably also an estimate of the absolute maximum load, which if exceeded, would cause failure. But these are theoretical, or mathematical estimates of the elevator's ability. Given any number of factors, a specific elevator may be able to carry a load larger than the calculated limit for some length of time. But weights just a little over normal safety capacity would cause more rapid wear of the system, and would probably not cause catastrohpic failure.
What type of bearing would be fitted to a fractional kW electric motor?
The type of bearing that would be fitted to a fractional kW electric motor will depend on the model and maker of the motor. Deep grove ball bearings are the most common bearings used.
What is the difference between nominal and design capacity of a plant?
Nominal capacity is the rate at which the parties involved would like for the plant to operate. Design capacity is the rate at which the designers have engineered the plan to operate.
Why does the foundation of a very large building often go all the way down to the bedrock?
Because large buildings weigh a lot. Subsoil has varying degrees of 'bearing capacity' - the amount of weight it can carry. If you put a lot of weight on a subsoil of low bearing capacity it will compact, or be pushed aside. If the subsoil on the site of a large building has insufficient bearing capacity to carry the loads imposed on it by the building then the foundations would have to be taken to bedrock as this has 'unlimited' bearing capacity.

Where do you normally use a reinforced wide strip concrete foundation?
A reinforced wide strip concrete foundation is used if the soil is soft or is of a low bearing capacity. This would not work for heavy or clumpy soil.

What is a fixed bearing?
a bearing is the direction one object is from another object.A bearing can be taken to a fixed or moving object, so a fixed bearing would be the direction towards a fixed object.
