The 6m x 9m rectangular foundation shown carries a uniform load of 325 kPa. Using NEWMARK'S influence chart, solve for the stress increase at point A.  The answer must be 140.4 . Please show solution
Question 01. Using the Fadum chart provided, calculate the total vertical stress due to 200 kPa uniform contact pressure at a depth of 6m below point A for the rectangular raft foundation as per Question 1 part of the attached image. L1 = 7m L2 = 3m B1 = 9m B2 = 4m   Question 02. A section of the proposed foundation in Question 01 has an obstruction. A redesign is carried out as shown in Question 2 part of the attached image. The original proposed footprint was maintained, and the section removed from the design has a width of B3 = 2mCalculate the total vertical stress at the same depth below A and the same uniform pressure in Question 01.

Use the rigid method to calculate the soil pressures at point A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, , J, K, L, M and N. The size of the mat is 76 ft x 96 ft, all columns are 24 in x 24 in in section, and qlnet = 1.5 kip/ft². Verify that the soil pressures are less than the net allowable bearing capacity.
