A total load of 900 kN is uniformly distributed over a rectangular footing of size 2 mx3 m. Find the vertical stress at a depth of 1.0 m below the footing at point C, under one corner, and D, under the center. If another footing of size 1 m × 3 m with a total load of 450 kN is constructed adjoining the previous footing, what is the vertical stress at the corner point E at the same depth due to the construction of these two footings. k 3 m 1m 2m E 3 m
