    This document provides equations for calculating soil and rock properties for foundation design. It gives the equations for calculating soil friction (fs) and end bearing (qb) values based on soil type (sand or clay), and provides typical values for cohesion (Cu) and adhesion (a) for clay. It also provides the equations for calculating rock friction (fs) and end bearing (qb) values based on unconfined compressive strength (qu), as well as an equation for calculating ultimate capacity (Qult) from soil/end bearing values and a modification based on rock quality designation (RQD).

    Soil Friction fs = 2 N kPa for sand

    fs = a Cu kPa for clay


    Cu = 6 N
    a = 0.55

    End Bearing qb = 70 N <4000 kPa for sand


    qb = 9 Cu kPa for clay

    Rock Friction fs = 100 √qu/100 kPa

    End Bearing qb = 2 qu kPa


    qu = 15000 kPa

    Qult = Qs + Qb
    Qult modif = Qult (RQD)2
