Question

Based on consideration of bearing capacity only and using Terzaghi’s bearing capacity factors, design the size of the square footing shown below for use in a commercial-residential building. Results from direct shear tests performed on samples from the site are shown below. Water is very deep.
Column Load 300 kips 5 ft Compacted sandy clay: Y 115 pcf Effective Stresses at failure Test No. ơN (psi) 10.9 21.8 32.6 t (psi) 7.4 12.0 16.0
