Question: Question 1 A rectangular footing of width 3 m and length 4 m , is founded at a depth of 1 m below the ground

Question 1
A rectangular footing of width 3m and length 4m, is founded at a depth of 1m below the ground surface in a medium dense sand having a cohesion c=20kNm2 and angle of shearing resistance =37. The water table is at a depth of 1.4m below ground level. The load applied on the footing has eccentricities as shown in figure, and an angle of 20 with the vertical axe of the footing (given: w=9,81kNm3)
Calculate the ultimate bearing capacity qult, the net ultimate load Qult(net) and the net allowable load Qall(net) of the footing (FS=3).
