assume maximum settlement is one inch Please round to the nearest One Tenth (i.e.,0.1). No comma!
Moist unit weight of soil, gamma \(=127\) pcf
Cohesion of soil, \( c=1000\) psf
The factor of safety, FS \(=2\) and the depth of footing, \(\mathrm{Df}=4\mathrm{ft}\)
The internal friction angle of soil is 0 degrees
A square footing rests on a uniform thick deposit of clay.
1. Allowable bearing capacity, qa = psf
2. Required dimension, \( B \) in terms of bearing capacity = ft
