SITUATION: A square footing carries an allowable axial load of 1000KN kg with its bottom
Compute the ultimate bearing capacity of the soil
resting on a ground water table at a depth of 1.5 m below the ground surface. (Nc 35, Nq =
22, Ny = 19). Take PDRY = 17 kN/m3 and PSAT = 20.5 kN/m3, C = 10kPa kg/m2.
Determine the dimension of the footing using a factor of safety of 3.
