Example 7.3 An overhead water tank is supported at a depth of 3 m by four isolated square footing of sides 2 m each placed in a square pattern with a centre-to-centre spacing of 8 m (Fig. 7.35). Compute the vertical stress at the foundation level (i) at the centre of the four footings and (ii) at the centre of one footing. Adopt Boussinesq's point load approximation. The load on each footing is 700 KN. 202 Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering K + + 8m 11.31 m + + 8m
