Two square foundations are constructed for a building. Both foundations impart a bearing pressure onto the soil below. Compute the induced vertical stress due to both foundations at point A at a depth of 2 ft. (Hint: use superposition) Square foundation: 2 ft x 2 ft Square foundation: 2 ft x 2 ft 80 kips 40 kips 1 1 2 ft A 2 ft Y=110%b/ft³ 1.5 ft
