Qno.1 A column (carrying vertical load, P =500 Kips and Moment, M= 200 K-fi) is placed at a footing of dimension 8 ft x 7.5 ft, which is located at a depth of 6 ft in a stiff silty clay of unit weight (above water table (y = 110 lb/ft), below water table (ym = 130 lb/fr) as shown in figure below. Take Factor of safety against shear failure as 3. The shear strength of the soil is given by the characteristic parameter, e = [100 - (last two digit of your registration No.}] lb/f ' = |25 + {last two digit of your registration No./10}] deg. Is the foundation safe with respect to shear failure due to the applied load? if the water table is at Part (a) Ground surface Part (b) Footing level
