Determine the allowable bearing capacity of a circular footing (diameter = 1.25 m) by the Terzaghi equation assuming local shear failure and a factor of safety of 25. A soil has a friction angle of 30o and cohesion of 20 kPa. The water table is located at the base of foundation. The unit weight is 20 kN/m3 below water table (WT) and 16 kN/m3 above WT. The Unit weight of water is 10 kN/m3. The depth of footing is 1.50 m !!
