A square foundation is shown in figure 16.8. The footing will carry the gross mass of 30,000kg. Using a factor of safest of 3, determine the size of the footing-that is, the size of B. Use Eq. (16.12).

A square foundation is shown in Figure 16.8. The footing will carry a gross mass of \( 30,000 \mathrm{~kg} \). Using a factor of safety of 3 , determine the size of the footing - that is, the size of B. Use Eq. (16.12). \( \rho=1850 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3} \)
