    The document provides information about soil shear strength, modulus of subgrade reaction, and rigidity of members resting on soil for cohesive and cohesionless soils. It includes equations to calculate the shear strength, unconfined compressive strength, and modulus of subgrade reaction based on parameters like number of blows from standard penetration test and modulus of elasticity. It also provides criteria to determine if a member resting on soil is rigid, intermediate, or flexible based on the relationship between rigidity parameter and footing width.

    Basic data regarding soil shear strength

    a. For cohesive soils.

    qu = N / 7.50 kg/cm2

    c = qu / 2 kg/cm2
    or
    c = N / 15 kg/cm2

    Where
    c = Shear strength of soil
    N = No of blows from SPT test
    qu = Unconfined compressive strength

    b. For cohesionless soils .

    For cohesionless soil corrections in N values shall be use
