A rectangular footing as size 1.8mx3m and has to transmit a load of the
column at a depth of 1.5m. Calculate the safe load which the footing can
carry using IS Code Method, if the load is inclined at an angle of 80° to
the horizontal and water table is at the 1.5m below the base of the
footing. Angle of internal friction is 33°,n=40%, G=2.67, w=15%
