OK i need help. Please help me work thorought this with autocad. I am not sure where to begin but i need to draw this.  Well if you read the question we did it in class and I got suepr confsued.
A square column foundation has to carry a gross allowable load of 2005 kN (FS = 3). Given: D₤ = 1.7 m, y = 15.9 kN/m³, 0' = 34°, and c' = 0. Use Terzaghi's equation to determine the size of the foundation (B). Assume general shear failure. For o' = 34°, N₁ 36.5 and Ny = 38.04. (Enter your answer to three significant figures.) B=2.16 m
