If the soil exerts a trapezoidal distributed load on the bottom of the footing, determine the intensities w1 and w2 of this distribution needed to support the column loads 60kN, 80 kN and 50 kN. Please note there is a column moment of 10 kNm in counter clockwise direction also and this must be considered in the computation.
