3. A load P = 600-kN and a moment of Mx = 260 kN-m are applied on a 1.80 m by 2.75 m rectangular footing. It is constructed on a sandy soil with the following properties: y =18 kN/m³, ysat = 20 kN/m³, ø = 24° (Nc = 19.32, Nq = 9.60, Ny = 5.72) and C = 20 kPa. Its bottom is located 2.0 m from the ground surface and the water table is a meter above the base. B is along x-axis. Find the net allowable load that the footing could carry if FS is 3.
