Repeat Problem 17.1 with the following: = 17.5 kN/m 3 , c' = 14 kN/m 2

Repeat Problem 17.1 with the following: γ = 17.5 kN/m³, c' = 14 kN/m², ϕ' = 20^ο, D_f = 1.0 m, β = 1.2 m, and factor of safety = 3.

Data From Problem 17.1

A continuous footing is shown in Figure 17.22. Using Terzaghi’s bearing capacity factors, determine the gross allowable load per unit area (q_all) that the footing can carry. Assume general shear failure. Given: γ = 115 lb/ft³, c' = 600 lb/ft², ϕ' = 25^ο, D_f = 3.5 ft, β = 4 ft, and factor of safety = 3.
