Redo Problem 16.2 using the modified general ultimate bearing capacity Eq. (16.31).
16.1 A continuous footing is shown in Figure 16.17. Using Terzaghi’s bearing capacity factors, determine the gross allowable load per unit area (qall) that the footing can carry. Assume general shear failure. Given: γ = 19 kN/m3, c′ = 31kN/m2,
Figure 16.17
6.2 Refer to Problem 16.1. If a square footing with dimension 2 m × 2 m is used instead of the wall footing, what would be the allowable bearing capacity?
