Refer to the rectangular combined footing in Figure 10.1, with Q1 = 100 kip and Q2 = 150 kip. The distance between the two column loads L3 = 13.5 ft. The proximity of the property line at the left edge requires that L2 = 3.0 ft. The net allowable soil pressure is 2500 lb/ft2. Determine the breadth and length of a rectangular combined footing.
A 3 m 4 m footing, founded at 2 m depth in a clay, applies a net pressure of 200 kN/m2. The bed rock lies 10 m below the footing. The modulus of elasticity of the clay is 30 MN/m2.

The net load per unit area at the level of the foundation, qo, is 3000 lb/ft2. For the sand, μs = 0.3, Es = 3200 lb/in.2, Df = 2.5 ft, and H = 32 ft.
