Q3: A rectangular footing (1.4m x4.2m) was placed at a depth of 1.0m from the natural ground level of fully saturated clayey soil [y, = 21.0., = 0.0, cu = 22.0 kN/m²). The ground water table level was at 0.8m from the natural ground level. The footing was subjected to eccentric load (eg-0.2m). the horizontal and vertical component of the load was 46.2 and 220 kN, respectively. Estimated the maximum bearing capacity of the footing.
