For the isolated rectangular footing (2 m x 2.3 m) shown below. The footing is subjected to a vertical load, Q = 425 kN and a moment, M = 85 KN.m. Using the general B/C equation, for general shear failure and for F.S = 3. Required : a. Determine the bearing allowable, B/C (qa) b. Calculate the maximum contact pressure qmax c. What should be the value of eccentricity (e) if the F.S = 4
