Design a square foundation (find the minimum width) that meets the following two conditions: 1) The foundation should carry a vertical loading P=800 kN, with a factor of safety 2, and 2) The ultimate settlement should be less than 0.3 m. Assume the general shear failure. 1m 0.7 m 4m CLAY ROCK y = 17.2 kN/m = 32° Y = 19 kN/m eo=0.8 C = 0.3 B=1,41 m
