Df1.2 m, h = 0.9 m, and B = 1.75 m. a) Using Meyerhof's method distinguish the gross allowable load that the footing can carry between the local shear failure and general shear failure. b) If the water table drops down to 0.5 m below the foundation level, what would be the change in the factor of safety for the same gross allowable load (based on general shear failure). c) Check the primary consolidation settlement of the foundation considering the worst case scenario (local or general shear failure).
