Question

(a) What is the effective wall load on the strip footings in kN/m? You may assume that the
the loads on the floor are not transferred to the strip footings. You may also assume that
half the roof load goes to each wall.
(b) If you use an unembedded strip footing for each wall what width is needed to maintain a
bearing capacity factor of safety of two?

PI of the fill soil is 41

In this assignment, you will design footings for the planned buildings.
The site plan in the request for geotechnical report shows the site layout. The architect has
provided the dimensions and floor loads for each building in Table 1.

proposed building, wall dead loads can be computed assuming the walls to be made of
concrete panels, 10 m in height, and 14 cm thick.
