The figure below shows a surface foundation subjected to a vertical load Q- 200 kN and a moment M 50 kN-m. Please answer the following questions: (1) Soil samples from this site are mainly cohesionless sand (e' = 0).A consolidated undrained triaxial test was conducted on one of the samples at a confining pressure o, = 100 kN/m². Failure occurred when the major principal stress đg = 200 kN/m² with a pore water pressure u = 50 kN/m. Determine the gffective stress angle of friction, ' of the soil accordingly. (10%) Calaule
