A square foundation is 1.5m x 2m in plan. Determine the
allowable gross load on the foundation with a factor of safety (FS)
of 3. Assume that the depth of the foundation ,Df, is 1.5 m and Nq
= 10.66, Nc = 20.72 and Ny = 10.88
Given:
γ = 17kN/m3 Φ = 25o c=0
Nc = 20.72 Nq = 10.66 Ny = 10.88
Qallow = y = 17kNm3 = 25° C=0 Nc = 20.72 Nq = 10.66 Ny = 10.88 = 1.5m = BXL
