Six cylindrical grain silos are to be supported by a mat foundation, as shown in the scheme below. Weight of the mat is 90 MN, and empty weight of each silo is 29 MN. Each silo can hold up 110 MN. Each silo will be filled independently. For the various critical loading conditions find whether the resultant force falls within the kern. In case the resultant falls within the kern compute the maximum and minimum contact pressures and show the contact pressure diagram, and if it does not, revise the plan dimensions of the mat so that Equation (2.8) is satisfied. !12 m 24 m L=75 m 24 m Plan 24m B=50m Silo Silo Elevation Mat Scheme 2.4
