Question: Exercise 1 A 2 . 5 m wide square footing will be constructed in clay with a characteristic value of undrained shear strength of 1

Exercise 1A 2.5m wide square footing will be constructed in clay with a characteristic value of undrained shear strength of 100kPa. The thickness of the sole is 1st. The embedment depth is equal to the thickness of the sole. The specific gravity of clay and concrete is 18kN/m^3 and 25kN/m^3, respectively.The intensive sizes at the lower end of the column are as follows (typical values):
Variable=250kN
Permanent Load =500kN
Intersecting by x axis: 40 kN permanent load and 100kN variable.
Torque on x-axis: 20 kNm constant load and 60kNm variable.
Intersecting y axis: 40 kN permanent load and 100kN variable.
Torque on y axis: 20 kNm constant load and 60 kNm variable.
The x and y axes are parallel to the sides of the square plan of the foundation. Carry out the load-bearing capacity test (ULS) according to Eurocode 7.
