Consider the strip footing and loading shown below. Consider in all calculations that the
footing is 1m long in the out-of-plane direction. What is the maximum moment in kN.m per
unit length that can be applied by the column in the direction shown in the figure below
without compromising the stability of the foundation? (answer tolerance =2%).
Consider concrete=25kNm3,soil=18kNm3 and assume the width of the embedded
column to be negligible and the entire top of the foundation is covered.
30kNm
Consider the strip footing and loading shown
