If a footing labeled as F-5 (occurring 3 times on the foundation plan) is described by the following sets of information: For the footing: 3.0m x 3.0m x 0.5m with a total depth of embedment of 3m relative to the NGL. For the column (attached to the footing): 0.5m x 0.5m x 5m. Working space of 1 ft is recommended along the perimeter of the footing base. Side slope considered is for every 2V:1H is observed. Find the total volume for backfill (rounded up to the nearest whole number, in cubic meters).
