How do you compute for the stress experience by soil above the water table?
Why the bearing capacity of soil reduces when the groundwater table rises up to the ground surface? point: a) Because the effective unit weight. of the soil below the footing will reduce by almost half. b) Because the effective stress at the level of the base of foundation will reduce significantly. c) Both a and b. d) Because groundwater produces seepage.
