Problem #3 (18 points) An eccentrically loaded continuous foundation is shown in the figure. Determine the maximum allowable load (2.1) that the foundation can carry. Use Meyerhof's effective 1.0 m area method and FS of 4. Solution: (Eccentricity in one direction only) e = 0.15 m Qall y = 17 kN/m d' = 0 6' - 36° B = 2 m Centerline
