A rectangular footing 2.0 m by 3.0 m is built in a homogeneous bed of sand of having bulk unit weight 20 kN/m3 and saturated unit weight 21 kN/m3 with an angle of shearing resistance of (30+Y)°. The depth of the base of footing is 1.8 m below the ground surface 1. and water table is located at a deth of 1.0m below the base of the foundation. a) Justify the adequacy of the footing if the proposed design load on the foundation is 1500 kN. b) depth 1.0 m below the ground Level. Calculate the safe load can be carried by the footing if the water table is located at a Consider the factor of safety of 3. Use Terzaghi's Analysis.
