Question

A rectangle pad footing with dimension bx1 = 2mx2m is subjected to axial loading N^tt = 600 kN. Foundation are constructed on ground surface shown as Figure 1. The water table is at -1.5m. The average unit weight of mass between soil and concrete above of the bottom foundation is given tb = 22 kN/m3. The results of the test of the relationship between the pressure and void ratio is shown in table. Load factor n is given n = 1.15.
