Question 1 The rectangular footing below will carry 2 column loads as shown below. The footing is 3 m by 5 m and is installed 3.0 m below ground surface founded on a hard clay. The clay's unit weight is 18.0 kN/m3, its cohesion is 10 kPa and its angle of internal friction is 22°. Groundwater was not detected during the drilling program. Determine the ultimate bearing capacity for the footing, the minimum and maximum stresses below the footing based on the column loads and the factor of safety against bearing capacity failure for this problem. Is the footing safe? (qu = 823.9 kPa, qmin = 193.3 kPa, qmax = 273.3 kPa, FS = 3.01) = 2,000 KN 1,500 kN Vt = 18.0 kN/m3 $' = 22° 3.0 m C' = 10 kPa 1.5 m 2.0 m 1.5 m Scale: NTS
