Question: A rectangular footing measures 1 . 4 0 m by 2 . 4 0 m at a depth of foundation = 1 . 4 0

A rectangular footing measures 1.40 m by 2.40 m at a depth of foundation =1.40m.
The soil under this foundation is sand with =39 and y=19.5kNm3.
Using Meyerhof equation and his effective area method (simple approach), Determine the gross ultimate load (in kN ) which can be applied eccentrically on the footing as shown in the figure below.
Important Note:
Insert your answer without any digits (for example 500),
write only your final answer (do noy write for example Q=500) just the final answer
A rectangular footing measures 1 . 4 0 m by 2 . 4
