Chapter 6, Problem 6.14QPP
A 1.5 m square footing is founded on a clay soil at a depth of 0.5 m. The ground water is at the ground surface. The footing is loaded at its centroid and carries a design load of 170 kN. Does this footing meet the presumptive allowable bearing pressure of the International Building Code? If not, design the footing such that it does meet these requirements.
