A field sample of an unconfined aquifer is packed in a test cylinder. The length and diameter of the cylinder are 50 cm and 6 cm
respectively. The field sample is tested for a period of three minutes under a constant head difference of 16.3 cm. As a result, 45.2 cm3 of water is collected at the outlet. Determine the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer sample.

Answer:
a) 0.978
b) 0.9191
c) 1.056
d) 0.849
Explanation:
Given data :
Stiffness of each bolt = 1.0 MN/mm
Stiffness of the members = 2.6 MN/mm per bolt
Bolts are preloaded to 75% of proof strength
The bolts are M6 × 1 class 5.8 with rolled threads
Pmax =60 kN, Pmin = 20kN
<u>a) Determine the yielding factor of safety</u>
------ ( 1 )
Sp = 380 MPa, At = 20.1 mm^2, C = 0.277, Pmax = 7500 N, Fi = 5728.5 N
Input the given values into the equation above
equation 1 becomes ( np ) = = 0.978
note : values above are derived values whose solution are not basically part of the required solution hence they are not included
<u>b) Determine the overload factor of safety</u>
------- ( 2 )
Sp = 380 MPa, At = 20.1 mm^2, C = 0.277, Pmax = 7500 N, Fi = 5728.5 N
input values into equation 2 above
hence : = 0.9191
<u>C) Determine the factor of safety based on joint separation</u>
Fi = 5728.5 N, Pmax = 7500 N, C = 0.277,
input values into equation above
Hence = 1.056
<u>D) Determine the fatigue factor of safety using the Goodman criterion.</u>
nf = 0.849
attached below is the detailed solution .
