2. A medium dense sand is proposed to support a square foundation having a width and length of 5 feet as shown below. The bottom of the footing is 2.5 feet below the ground surface. The water table is 4 feet below the bottom of the footing. Using a factor of safety of 3, what is the allowable bearing capacity of the proposed footing? G,= 2.6 e = 0.5 $ = 35° 5 ft d= 4 ft
