A 1.5 m x1.5 m square footing is supported by a soil deposit that contains a 16.5 m thick saturated clay layer followed by the bedrock. The clay has μs = 0.50 and Es = 5,000 kN/m2 . The footing base is at 1.5 m below the ground surface. Determine the maximum vertical central column load so that the elastic settlement of the footing will not exceed 50.0 mm. If the square footing is replaced by a 1.2 m wide wall footing with all other conditions remaining the same.
